For each mushroom, values were expressed as mean ± SD and values within the same column followed by same letters are not significantly different (p > 0.05)

aThe extraction efficiency percentage of lyophilized extract was calculated based on the amount of raw sample used (150.00 g)

bfor DPPH assay, the IC50 ascorbic standard is 18.94 μg/ml
