Abstract
The mycochemical analysis of Microporus xanthopus and Lenzite selegans was performed using both conventional and advanced techniques. Extracts of the fungal material were prepared using eight different solvents based on their polarity index. The mycochemical analysis was carried out using various reagents. The mycochemical analysis and FTIR spectroscopy revealed the presence of flavonoids, terpenes, phenolics, alkaloids, anthraquinones, and saponins, all of which have been reported in Microporus xanthopus and Lenzite selegans. Trace elements showed the highest concentration in Microporus xanthopus, followed by Lenziteselegans.
