Description
High Performance Thin Layer Chromatography (HPTLC) is a well-established analytical technique widely utilized for botanical and fungal identification. Mushrooms are known for their bioactive compounds (beta-glucans, sterols, and triterpenoids) that can have a wide range of human health benefits, such as boosting the immune system, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory among others. The method selection for mushrooms is dependent on the species of mushroom, the compound(s) of interest, form of material, as well as standardization of extracts. Over 15 different mushroom species were analyzed by various methods by HPTLC, for both mycelia and fruiting body.
