Overview

Quantifies the distribution of triterpenoids and phenolics in Ganoderma mushrooms, suggesting key targets for extraction.

Key Points

  • The aim is to investigate the tissue distribution of bioactive compounds in Ganoderma mushrooms.
  • Analyzed six anatomical sections of fruiting bodies from five wild Ganoderma species.
  • Identified and quantified twenty-six triterpenoids, β-glucans, and phenolics.
  • Measured antioxidant activity using ABTS and FRAP assays.
  • Maximum triterpenoid content reached 3.5%, β-glucans 34.3%, and phenolics 23.5 mg GAE·g−1.
  • Highest triterpenoids and phenolics found in outer cap tissues.
  • β-glucans predominantly located in the context layers.
