Comparison of the Anti-oxidative Effects of Extracts from Ganoderma atrum and Ganoderma lucidum

Abstract

Abstract: Anti-oxidative effects of extracts from Ganoderma lucidium (GL) and Ganoderma atrum (GA) were studied by using DPPH and pyrogallol autooxidation methods. The results showed that all kinds of extracts of GL and GA have scavenging effects on DPPH radical and restraining effects on pyrogallol autooxidation, and the anti-oxidative activities decreased in the order of 95% ethanol> acetone > deionized water> chloroform. The amount of extracts used is directly in proportion to the anti-oxidative effect. When the control experiment was performed by using BHT and ascorbic acid, it is showed that the acetone extracts of Ganoderma atrum (1mg/ml) have stronger antioxidant activity than BHT (10mg/ml) but have the same of activity as ascorbic acid (0.5mg/ml).

Key words: Ganoderma lucidium, Ganoderma atrum, extracts, antioxidation, DPPH, pyrogallol autooxidation
