Development and validation of microwave-assisted extraction for phenolic compound profiling in diverse oyster mushrooms (Pleurotus spp.) sourced from various geographical regions by M Umar Harun, Miguel Palma, Widiastuti Setyaningsih

“…Seven phenolic compounds—p-coumaric acid, t-cinnamic acid, p-hydroxybenzaldehyde, p-hydroxybenzoic acid, quercetin-3-glucoside, gallic acid, and vanillic acid—were effectively extracted and quantified using ultra-performance liquid chromatography with photodiode array detection. Application of this method across oyster mushroom samples from different geographical sources revealed significant variation in phenolic compound concentrations, with Pleurotus pulmonarius exhibiting the highest level of gallic acid at 433.90 ± 7.77 μg g−1 (DM) and Pleurotus ostreatus var. …”
