Abstract:
In this review, recent progress in the extraction and purification, and the chemical composition analysis of triterpenoids from Ganoderma lucidum was summarized. Triterpenoids are an important class of active components in G. lucidum. Because of its low content, complex procedures of extraction and purification, the preparation of high purity triterpenoids from G. lucidum is currently limited at the laboratory scale. This review discussed the industrial preparation of triterpenoids, aiming to promote the industrial development of G. lucidum, and to provide scientific basis for its study, production, and application in health food and medicine.
