摘要:In the current study,antioxidant,oxidant,and antimicrobial potentials of Xylaria polymorpha (Pers.) Grev.and X.hypoxylon (L.) Grev.were determined.Also,the levels of elements accumulated by these fungi were measured.The samples were extracted with ethanol in soxhlet apparatus.Antioxidant and oxidant potentials were determined using Rel Assay kits.Antimicrobial activities were tested using the agar dilution method.Element contents were determined using atomic absorption spectrophotometer.As a result ofthe studies,TAS,TOS,and OSI values of X.hypoxylon were determined as 3.794±0.188,8.609±0.171,and 0.228±0.015,respectively.TAS,TOS,and OSI values ofX.polymorpha were determined as 5.390±0.176,14.738±0.126,and 0.274±0.008,respectively.Besides,it was observed that the antimicrobial activities of the extracts of mushrooms were effective at 50-400 pg/mL concentrations.Element contents were determined to be at normal levels compared to literature data.As a result,it was determined thatX.polymorpha andX.hypoxylon have antioxidant and antimicrobial potentials.
