Journal Title: International Research Journal of Pharmacy (IRJP) - Year 2012, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
In this study, the bioactive components of Pleurotus ostreatus have been evaluated using GC/MS. The chemical compositions of the hydroalcholic extract of Pleurotus ostreatus were investigated using Perkin-Elmer Chromatography–Mass Spectrometry, while the mass spectra of the compounds found in the extract was matched with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) library. GC/MS analysis of hydroalcholic extract of Pleurotus ostreatus revealed the existence of Cholestane-3,7,1,25-tetrol tetraacetate,(3a,5a,7a,12 a)-55.20, 9,12-Octadecadienoic acid,methyl ester(E,E)-18.55,14,17- Octadecadienoic acid,methyl ester(E,E)-5.59,Pentadecanoic acid, ethyl ester-3.84.. The results of this study offer a platform for using Pleurotus ostreatus as herbal alternative for the current synthetic antimicrobial agents.
