In this paper the antimicrobial activity of methanolic and aqueous extracts obtained from the fruiting body of Ganoderma lucidium a medicinal mushroom were investigated. Over the past century it has been discovered and develop a number of synthetic antimicrobial agents, but toxicity and drug resistance are still the major hindrance to gaining successful therapeutic outcomes. The antimicrobial activity of methanolic and aqueous extracts was tested against five bacteria namely, E.coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pyogenes, Burkholderia sp and Pseudomonas aerogenosa collected from wound sample. The inhibition zone diameter of methanolic extracts against different test organisms were ranging from 5mm – 23.0mm. Where, antimicrobial activity of aqueous extract of fruiting body of Ganoderma lucidium the inhibition zone diameter of test organism range from 6mm-21mm.Both extracts showed effective inhibition zone diameter against all the organisms. The Inhibition Zone was maximum for Gram positive organisms Staphylococcus aureus, was resistance to antibiotic Cetotaxime, polyxin, Amoxycillin, Novobiocin and Amoxyclav. Further studies were carried out for compound characterization and Pharmacological studies.
