[Analysis Case] Comparative Quantitative Analysis of Ergothioneine in Mushrooms
Case studies of quantitative analysis of functional ingredients
Ergothioneine is an amino acid homolog discovered in ergot, known for its strong antioxidant properties and anti-photoaging effects, and research and development are ongoing in the fields of medicine and beauty. Since humans cannot produce ergothioneine in their bodies, they obtain it from sources rich in it, such as certain mushrooms. An analysis of eight types of mushrooms using LC/MS/MS revealed that ergothioneine was detected in all of them. Quantitative analysis was conducted on three types of mushrooms from the Pleurotaceae family, which are said to have high ergothioneine content.
