The Impact Factor measures the average number of citations received in a particular year by papers published in the journal during the two preceding years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) IF: 1.2 To calculate the five year Impact Factor, citations are counted in 2017 to the previous five years and divided by the source items published in the previous five years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) 5-Year IF: 1.4 The Immediacy Index is the average number of times an article is cited in the year it is published. The journal Immediacy Index indicates how quickly articles in a journal are cited. Immediacy Index: 0.3 The Eigenfactor score, developed by Jevin West and Carl Bergstrom at the University of Washington, is a rating of the total importance of a scientific journal. Journals are rated according to the number of incoming citations, with citations from highly ranked journals weighted to make a larger contribution to the eigenfactor than those from poorly ranked journals. Eigenfactor: 0.00066 The Journal Citation Indicator (JCI) is a single measurement of the field-normalized citation impact of journals in the Web of Science Core Collection across disciplines. The key words here are that the metric is normalized and cross-disciplinary. JCI: 0.34 SJR: 0.274 SNIP: 0.41 CiteScore™:: 2.8 H-Index: 37

ABSTRACT

This research aimed to evaluate the potential of Cordyceps sobolifera in mycelial biomass production via liquid culture and to assay the safety and determine the antioxidative and antiaging activities of Caenorhabditis elegans. A C. sobolifera isolate was cultured using the one-factor-at-a-time method to illustrate its carbon and nitrogen requirements. To assess safety, we determined the lethality, locomotion behavior, and reproduction of C. elegans cultured on a mycelial water extract (MWE) containing nematode growth medium (NGM). To investigate antiaging activity, C. elegans treated with MWE was incubated on NGM plates. The lethality was recorded throughout the whole life cycle. To identify antioxidant activity, C. elegans treated with MWE was exposed to paraquat, causing superoxide conditions. The results showed that C. sobolifera was favored by glucose and peptone as carbon and nitrogen sources, respectively. MWE was considered to be safe, as no abnormal behaviors were observed in C. elegans. Compared with nematodes pretreated with no MWE but with water instead, MWE at 1.0 mg/mL significantly prolonged the mean lifespan of C. elegans by 24%. We observed an obvious dose-effect relation between concentration and mean lifespan. The effective antioxidant activity was recorded at the high concentration of MWE. These findings demonstrate the potential antiaging and antioxidant properties of C. sobolifera as functional food and dietary supplement.
