    Abstract:
    Ganoderic acids (GAs) were bioactive secondary metabolites produced by a traditional mushroom Ganoderma lucidum. We describe a simple and efficient method for the separation and quantitative determination of four GAs, namely Ganoderic acid T (GA-T), Ganoderic acid Mk (GA-Mk), Ganoderic acid Me (GA-Me) and Ganoderic acid S (GA-S) from dried triterpene-enriched extracts of G. lucidum mycelia powder by capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE). Under the optimum conditions, the four GAs reached the baseline separation in 9 min with Glycyrrhetinic acid (GTA) as internal standard. The four GAs and internal standard (GTA) were detected at a wavelength 245 nm. All calibration curves showed good linearity (r(2)>0.9958) within test ranges. Limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) were less than 0.6 and 1.8 microg/mL, respectively. The relative standard deviation (R.S.D.) values of precision and recoveries were less than 5% and recoveries ranged from 91.4% to 103.6%. This was the first report on simultaneous determination of the four GAs and the results provided a firm basis for the trace analysis of GAs in dried fermentation mycelia powder of G. lucidum with high accuracy.
