Mushrooms have been used as valuable food for a very long time because they are highly nutritious, with the necessary tremendous amount of quality proteins, vitamins, minerals, etc. Mushrooms are rich, diverse sources of various bioactive compounds extracted quickly by different extraction procedures. In the present study, Ganoderma lucidum was possessed for extract preparation of mixed polar and non-polar solvents. The extracts solvents were analyzed for potential antimicrobial property determination of crude extracts by disk diffusion and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) methods and successfully investigated the antimicrobial potency. The results indicated that polar and non-polar extracts from Ganoderma possessed potential antimicrobial activities against the tested organisms, i.e., Bacillus tequilensis and Bacillus subtilis. The present study suggests that the Ganoderma mushroom containing bioactive compounds has potent antibacterial capacity; future complete profiling of bioactive compounds will be a new dimension for research and drug discovery.
