Antioxidant Potantials of Helvella Leucomelaena and Sarcosphaera coronaria

Mushrooms have long been used for nutritional and medical purposes [1]. They are rich in protein and amino acids, as well as their texture and flavour, low in calories and are considered a nutritious food [2]. In addition to their nutritive properties, they are considered as a significant source of medicinal substances due to their important biologically active compound content [3,4]. Because of the bioactive compounds they include, they play an important role in the prevention of diseases such as hypertension, hypercholesterolemia and cancer [5]. Mushrooms were reported as therapeutic agents beneficial for the prevention or alleviation of bacterial, viral, fungal and parasitic infections [6,7].
