In this work the antioxidant and antimicrobial activity of the fractions with different polarity, obtained from water-ethanol dry extracts from Fomes fomentarius, has been investigated. Fractions of different polarities, obtained from water-alcohol dry extract from Inonotus obliquus, were used as comparison samples. It has been shown, that the most phenol-rich (73.571 ± 21.268 mg E/g) ethyl acetate and ethanol (36.343 ± 10.241 mg E/g) fractions from Fomes fomentarius demonstrated the highest radical scavenging activity against DPPH (IС₅₀: 515.6 ± 100.5 μg/ml; 751.2 ± 19.3 μg/ml, respectively) and ABTS (IС₅₀: 229.7 ± 9.6 μg/ml; 423.3 ± 0.66 μg/ml, respectively). It has been found, that chloroform, ethyl acetate and ethanol fractions from Fomes fomentarius exhibit antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus.
