Abstract(s)

ln the last years nineteen different mushrooms species from Northeast Portugal, one of the European regions with higher , wild mushrooms diversity, were evaluated, by our team, for their antioxidant properties, in order to valorise them as a source of nutraceuticals [I]. Nevertheless, assuming that the proportion of used mushrooms among the undiscovered and unexamined ones is only 5%, there are thousands of species with possible benefit for mankind. Therefore, we intend to go on in the study of this matrix, documenting their nutraceutical potential and retaining the information for a better management and conservation of this natural resource and related habitats.
