Abstract

The biologically active melanin fraction was isolated from the mushroom chaga and investigated. Terpenic and phenolic compounds were found in it by using mass spectrometry. The total contents of lipids, phenols, and carbohydrates were determined. It was found that the isolated fraction possessed antioxidant, fungicidal, fungistatic, and prebiotic activity for several microorganism groups.
