“…1-Octen-3-ol was previously identified as a dominant volatile compound, e.g., in the VO of the mushrooms Agaricus bisporus [23,24], Boletopsis leucomelas [25], Pleurotus ostreatus [26], Pleurotus eryngii var. tuoliensis , P. cystidiosus [27], P. salmoneostramineus, P. sajor-caju [28], Spongiporus leucomallellus [16] and Trametes gibbosa [14]. It was found also in the truffle Hymenogaster luteus var.…”

“…There are only few reports about the volatile components of basidiomycetes such as Boletus edulis , Pleurotus ostreatus [9], Inonotus obliquus [10], Laetiporus sulphureus [11], Lentinus boryanus , L. edodes [12], Polyporus sulfurous [13], Trametes gibbosa [14] and Tricholoma matsutake [15]. Ziegenbein et al [16] identified 65 compounds in the essential oil from fruit bodies of Ganoderma lucidum . Major ones were trans-anethole (9.1%), R -(−)-linalool (4.4%), S -(+)-carvone (4.4%), 2-pentylfuran (2.8%), α-terpineol (2.7%) and n -nonanal (2.3%).…”

In a first study of the volatile oil of the mushroom basidiomycete Ganoderma pfeifferi Bres., the chemical composition and antimicrobial and antioxidant activities of the oil were investigated. The volatile oil was obtained from the fresh fruiting bodies of Ganoderma pfeifferi Bres. By hydrodistillation extraction and analyzed by GC-MS. The antimicrobial activity of the oil was evaluated against five bacteria strains and two types of fungi strains, using disc diffusion and broth microdilution methods. In addition, the antioxidant activity of the oil was determined using DPPH assay. Four volatile compounds representing 90.5% of the total oil were identified. The majority of the essential oil was dominated by 1-octen-3-ol (amyl vinyl carbinol) 1 (73.6%) followed by 1-octen-3-ol acetate 2 (12.4%), phenylacetaldehyde 3 (3.0%) and 6-camphenol 4 (1.5%). The results showed that the Gram-positive bacteria species are more sensitive to the essential oil than Gram-negative bacteria. The oil showed strong antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus as well as Candida albicans. Moreover, the oil exhibited strong radical scavenging activity in the DPPH assay. This first report on the chemical composition and biological properties of G. pfeifferi volatile oil makes its pharmaceutical uses rational and provides a basis in the biological and phytochemical investigations of the volatile oils of Ganodermataceae species.

“…Understandably, the authors put a disclaimer about the taxonomic veracity of the names they use in the volumes. (Strigina et al, 1971;Domínguez et al, 1972;Ripperger and Budzikiewicz, 1975;Jain and Gupta, 1984;Kac et al, 1984;Tomoda et al, 1986;Nishitoba et al, 1987;Shiao et al, 1988;Chairul et al, 1991;Hirotani et al, 1991Hirotani et al, , 1995Lin et al, 1993;Kawagishi et al, 1993;Sofni et al, 1994;Kawagishi et al, 1997;Keller et al, 1997;Lin et al, 1997;El-Mekkawy et al, 1998; Rö secke and Kö nig, 2000; Bao et al, 2002;Ziegenbein et al, 2006). Furthermore, Akihisa et al (2005) describe (a) two triterpenoids: 20(21)-dehydrolucidenic acid A and methyl 20(21)-dehydrolucidenate A, and (b) five new 20-hydroxylucidenic acids: 20-hydroxylucidenic acid D 2 , 20-hydroxylucidenic acid F, 20-hydroxylucidenic acid E 2 , 20-hydroxylucidenic acid N, and 20-hydroxylucidenic acid P isolated from the basidiocarps of G. ludicum.…”

Ganoderma – A therapeutic fungal biofactory

2006

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Ganoderma is a basidiomycete white rot fungus which has been used for medicinal purposes for centuries particularly in China, Japan and Korea. A great deal of work has been carried out on Ganoderma lucidum. The common names for preparations include Lingzhi, Munnertake, Sachitake, Reishi and Youngzhi. This review collates the publications detailing activities and compounds by representative species whilst considering the most valid claims of effectiveness. The biological activities reported of preparations from Ganoderma are remarkable and given most emphasis herein as distinct from structure/activity information. The metabolites consist of mainly polysaccharides and terpenoids. Many are activities against the major diseases of our time and so the present review is of great importance. The list of effects is huge ranging from anti-cancer to relieving blockages of the bladder. However, the reports have not all been tested scientifically with the convincing evidence is reserved for assays of pure compounds. It is a prime example of an ancient remedy being of great relevance to the modern era. There does appear to be an assumption that the therapeutic effects attributed to the fungus have been proven. The next step is to produce some effective medicines which may be hampered by problems of mass production.

“…The presence of ergosteryl esters is not commonly described in literature because sterols are saponified in order to quantify the total ergosterol content. A few mushrooms have been a matter of research and ergosteryl esters have been detected in species such as Agrocybe aegerita, Cordyceps sinensis, Ganoderma lucidum, Lentinus edodes and Termitomyces albuminosus (Gonzalez et al, 1999;Yuan et al, 2007Yuan et al, , 2008Ziegenbein et al, 2006).…”
