“…The extract of A. luteolus has the highest amount of the total phenolic content (235.98 ± 0.54 mg QE/g extract) while that of T. mboudaena has the highest amount of the total flavonoid content (9.32 ± 0.45 mg GAE/g extract). However, flavonoid content in wild Ganoderma applanatum was higher than that obtained by Moyen UPK, et al [37] from cultivated samples of G. lucidum (Curt: Fr.) P. Karst.…”

Some fungi species thanks to their antioxidant activities have been found able to protect the liver against toxic substances. There is a lack of data on the antioxidant and the hepatoprotective potential of tropical Africa mushrooms. This study was to assess the antioxidant and protective effects of 22 wild mushrooms from the Noun Division in Cameroon against the hepatotoxicity induced by cisplatin in rat liver slices. Mushroom extracts were used for polyphenols, flavonoids, thiols and total amino acids content determinations and in vitro antioxidant properties assessment in comparison to that of vitamin C using 2,2-diphenyl1-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging, ferric reducing power (FRAP) and the superoxide dismutase-like (SOD-like) activity assays. The hepatoprotective capacity of the mushrooms extracts was evaluated by measuring their ability to inhibit the enzyme alanine aminotransferase (ALAT) leakage from rat liver slices and formation of malondialdehyde (MDA). As results, the species Afroboletus luteolus, Amanita rubescens, Ganoderma applanatum, Neonothopothanus hygrophanus, Termitomyces schimperi and Tylopilus sp. demonstrated the highest antioxidant activity. In addition to this activity, A. luteolus, A. rubescens, T. schimperi and Tylopilus sp. exhibited the greatest protection effect against cisplatine toxicity. This study shows that the studied wild mushroom species possess prominent antioxidant and hepatoprotective activities and, consumption could provide both nutritional and health benefits to the population promoting contribution of fungi in food security

“…compared favourably with other findings of wild and cultivated mushrooms. For phenolic content, Uddin et al (2019), using cultivated Ganoderma lucidum mushroom ethanol extract reported 1.6±0.66% compared with the value of 2.73±0.30% observed in this study. A major class of phytochemicals, are Phenols and they are responsible for inhibiting the oxidative damage caused by free radicals generated inside the human body (Ferguson, 2001).…”

The aim of this study was to evaluate the phytochemical contents of indigenous cultivated Ganoderma sp. (Curt.) P. Karst. in comparison to other mushrooms found in literature. The cultivated indigenous medicinal mushroom (Ganoderma sp.) can be available all-year round, as compared with the wild or imported/foreign Ganoderma sp. which are scarce, seasonal and expensive. Phytochemical analysis was carried out using Methanol, Ethanol, Dichloromethane and Aqueous extracts. Preliminary tests indicated the presence of secondary metabolites (alkaloids, tannins, phenols, terpenoids, flavonoids, steroids) and high carbohydrate contents in the cultivated Ganoderma fruiting bodies. Results of the quantitative analysis showed the highest value of phenol in aqueous extract, with the least value in Dichloromethane extract for flavonoids. The results obtained from this study reveals that the cultivated indigenous medicinal mushroom, Ganoderma sp. is a potential source of secondary metabolites which are beneficial as nutraceuticals in industries and pharmaceuticals.

“…Finished leather is often damaged by different types of molds such as Aspergillus niger, aspergillus flavus, Trichoderma viride and Penicillium sp by elaborating lipase proteases and degrading natural leather [1]. Fungi such as A. niger, A sydoni, A. versicolor, An Amsterdam and A. flavus have been isolated from finished leather [2].…”

This investigation aims to examine the antimicrobial properties of a few types of medicinal plants on fungi transmitted by leather. In the soxhlet method, the antifungal agents were successfully extracted from the leaves of Azadirachta indica, Lantana camara, Wedelia chinensis, Moringa oleifera and Coccinia grandis using methanolic solvent. The fungus isolates from leather bags, shoes and wallets were cultured in Potato Dextrose Agar (PDA) plates. The two leather-borne fungi Aspergillus sp. and Penicillium sp. were the targets of the antifungal assay. Here plant extracts were applied in concentrations of 5.0%, 10.0% and 15.0%. Azadirachta indica, Moringa oleifera and Lantana camara extract were the most successful treatments for inhibiting the controlled growth of the fungi under this investigation. Furthermore, it is stated that the pathogenic fungi's capacity to proliferate increases with the concentration of plant extracts in the culture. This two-plant showed promising results in treating two cases of fungus, suggesting that it may be used to treat fungi carried by leather.
