Abstract :It is possible to classify mushrooms as edible, inedible and poisonous. The present study aimed to determine the antioxidant potential of Gyrodon lividus insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Bull.); Sacc., an edible mushroom species Thus, total antioxidant status insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(TAS); and total oxidant status insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(TOS); of mushroom ethanol extracts were determined and oxidative stress index was calculated based on TAS and TOS findings. Based on the study findings, the TAS value was 2.077 ± 0.087, TOS value was 13.465 ± 0.213 and OSI level was 0.651 ± 0.037. Thus, it was suggested that the mushroom had antioxidant potential, however G. lividus collected in Burdur province should be consumed with care due to the high oxidative stress levels.
