      <abstract><![CDATA[<p>The total phenolic and flavonoid contents, as well as the <I>in vitro</I> radical scavenging potentials of extracts of <I>Trametes lactinea</I> collected from forest near the Teaching and Research farm of the Federal University of Technology, Akure were assessed. The acetone extract possessed higher total phenolic content (3.21 mg GAE g<SUP>&#150;1</SUP>), whereas, the methanol extract had higher total flavonoid content (1.46 mg RE g<SUP>&#150;1</SUP>). All the extracts were able to scavenge 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), nitric oxide (NO), hydrogen peroxide (H<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>2</SUB>) and hydroxyl (OH) radicals. At a concentration of 2 mg L<SUP>&#150;1</SUP> the extracts produced activities greater than 50%. The observed result indicates that this wild macrofungus, <I>Trametes lactinea</I> could be a valuable source of natural antioxidants that can protect against free radicals mediated damages.</p>]]></abstract>
