Fatty Acid Profile of Wild and Cultivated Edible Mushrooms Collected from Ethiopia

Fatty Acid Profile of Wild and Cultivated Edible Mushrooms Collected from Ethiopia

Six wild (A. campestris, L. sulphureus, T. clypeatus, T. microcarpus, T. letestui and Termitomyces spps) and three cultivated (P. ostreatus, L. edodes, A. bisporus) edible mushrooms collected from Ethiopia were analyzed for their fatty acid profile. Fatty acids were extracted by one step lipid extraction and methylation procedure followed by gas chromatography with flame ionization detection. T...

Proximate and Amino Acid Composition of Wild and Cultivated Edible Mushrooms Collected from Ethiopia

First four cultivated (P.ostreatus, L.edodes, A.bisporus#1, A. bisporus#2) and eight wild (A.campestris, L.sulphureus, T.clypeatus, T.microcarpus#1, T.aurantiacus, T.microcarpus#2, T.letestui and Termitomyces spps) edible mushrooms collected from Ethiopia were analyzed for their proximate composition. Then to measure the quality of the crude protein, nine mushrooms were selected for further inv...
