Centesimal Composition, Bioactive Compounds, Antioxidant and α-Glucosidase Inhibitory Activities of Commercial Edible Oyster Mushrooms at Different Maturity Stages in Northern Thailand

mycolabadmin

This research studied five types of oyster mushrooms grown in Thailand at different stages of maturity. Researchers found that the nutritional content and beneficial compounds in mushrooms change as they grow. Young and middle-stage mushrooms had the highest levels of compounds that fight disease and help manage blood sugar, while fully mature mushrooms had more total nutrients. This information helps farmers decide when to harvest mushrooms based on whether customers want maximum nutrition or maximum health-promoting properties.

Natural Antimicrobial Compounds as Promising Preservatives: A Look at an Old Problem from New Perspectives

mycolabadmin

This review examines natural alternatives to synthetic food preservatives, which are increasingly recognized as potentially harmful. Natural antimicrobial compounds from plants, fungi, and other sources can effectively prevent food spoilage and bacterial contamination. New technologies using light and ultrasound can enhance these natural compounds’ effectiveness. While promising, these natural preservatives need more research and regulatory approval before widespread industrial use.

Centesimal Composition, Bioactive Compounds, Antioxidant and α-Glucosidase Inhibitory Activities of Commercial Edible Oyster Mushrooms at Different Maturity Stages in Northern Thailand

mycolabadmin

This study examined how oyster mushrooms change nutritionally and chemically as they mature from young to fully grown. Researchers found that while mature mushrooms have more overall nutrients and starch-like compounds, younger middle-stage mushrooms have higher levels of beneficial antioxidant compounds and special substances that may help manage blood sugar. The findings suggest that when and how you harvest mushrooms matters for what health benefits they provide, helping farmers and food makers decide when to pick mushrooms based on what they want to produce.
