Mushroom contain a multitude of bioactive compound with nutritional value. Among the bioactive molecules, phenolic compounds are the most responsible for their antioxidant activity. In the present work Pleurotus tuber-regium, Auricularia auricula-judae and Lentinus squarrosulus, three edible mushroom species collected from Nigeria, were analyzed for their Nutritional value and antioxidant activity. For macroelement Ca has the highest value 101 (mg/kg), Mg has 45.28 (mg/kg) in A. auricula and Na lowest with 1.20 (mg/kg) in P. tuber-regium while microelement Zn has 43.56 (mg/kg) in P. tuber-regium and Mn has 0.06 (mh/kg) in L.squarrosulus. Glycosides...
