• Hydroxyl radical
• Edible-medicinal fungi

Kelp waste is the main solid waste in the kelp processing industries. At the same time the hydroxyl center dot OH radical is one of the main chemical species which can damage all types of macromolecules in an organism. In this study, the possibility of incubation of popular edible-medicinal fungi producing hydroxyl radical scavenging activity polysaccharides on the kelp waste medium is discussed. Experiments were conducted to optimize the growth rate of the fungi solid fermentation. Each component of the fermentation mixture was investigated with hydroxyl radical scavenging assays respectively. Results showed that the edible-medicinal fungi could grow on this medium and produce abundant polysaccharides which have the capacity for hydroxyl radical scavenging. Assays of each component indicated the scavenging rate of the hot water extracts of these fermentation products and their polysaccharides were much higher than established by BHT control.
