Abstract

Flammulina velutipes is one of the most important commercialized mushrooms across the globe, with an annual market share of billions of dollars. The mushroom is consumed not only due to its nutritional value but also its medicinal properties; 76 secondary metabolites have been isolated, characterised, and reported to show a range of health benefits, from antihypertensive to anticancer properties. Nevertheless, Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) system practice is necessary to warrant the value as well as safety of cultivated mushroom products as the global market for mushroom is increasing every year.
