Abstract
In the past several decades there are growing appeals for utilizing plants as a source of chemicals that act as feed supplements and drugs for promoting health. This study was carried out to estimate: Firstly, The quality of phytochemicals on Ganoderma lucidum. The results exhibit that Saponins, Alkaloids, Tannins, Flavonoids, Phenols, and Glycosides were present in all samples of Ganoderma lucidum. Secondly, the levels of trace elements (Mg, Fe, Zn, Mn, Cu, Cr, and V) in five samples of Ganoderma lucidum commercial products were estimated by flame atomic absorption spectrophotometry. Fe has the highest level with 130.60 ± 1.63 ppm, Followed by Mg at 50.76 ± 1.19 ppm and Mn at 20.19 ± 0.54 ppm, On the other hand, Cu, Cr, and V recorded the lower levels with 5.49 ± 0.35 ppm, 0.73 ± 0.04 ppm and 0.36 ± 0.02 ppm respectively. Keywords: Carbohydrate, Ganoderma Lucidum, Iron, Saponins, Trace Elements
