Abstract
Oudemansiella canarii, from the family Physalactriaceae, is an edible mushroom commonly found growing on trunks and twigs of dead trees. Fallen logs, and pile of wood chips. In order to establish the pharmacological potentials, the anti-inflammatory and antidiabetic activities were assessed using chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) assay and a-amylase assay, respectively. The chorioallantoic memebrane inhibition assay revealed that O. canarii culture spent extract at 1000 ug/mL concentration recorded the highest inflammation inhibition of 95.24% which was almost comparable to the quercetin. Onthe otehr hand, ethanolic extracts of both mycelia and culture spent showed no inhibitory activity against a-amylase.
