Amino Acid Composition of the Protein from a Mushroom (Pleurotus sp.).
نویسندگان
چکیده
Approximate analyses of mushroom protein (Pleurotus sp.) revealed that it contains 2.78% protein and 0.14% nonprotein nitrogen on a fresh-weight basis. A total of 17 amino acids, including all the essential amino acids, were qualitatively identified. Quantitative estimation of essential amino acids showed that, except for methionine and phenylalanine, all are in fairly high concentration. From these studies, it was concluded that the supplementation of this mushroom with cereal diet would help to overcome lysine deficiency.

Chemical profile and amino acids composition of edible mushrooms Pleurotus sajor-caju.
Two varieties of Pleurotus sajor-caju, obtained from the wild and cultivated (on shredded corncobs) were separated into cap and stalk and analysed on dry weight basis. The proximate composition (g/100 g) showed that both varieties were highly concentrated in crude protein. The cultivated cap (Cc) was found to accumulate higher concentration of crude protein (26.34%) and ash (10.37%) than the wi...

The micro and macronutrient content of Pleurotus ostreatus cultivated on different woody substrates viz; Pycnanthus ongoleubis, Ceiba pentandra and Cananium sp. was investigated. Mineral analysis revealed that phosphorus had the highest value in all the minerals sampled and it value ranges between 51.97 mg/100 g to 56.77 mg/100 g while Magnesium recorded the least value of 1.69 mg/100g to 3.57 ...
متن کاملComparison of Essential and Non Essential Amino Acids in the Microbial Protein of Pleurotus Florida from the Lignocellulosic Wastes
Introduction: Cereal straws contain Cellulose, Hemicelluloses and Lignin and are most available renewable biopolymers. White rot fungi is used to convert these wastes into microbial protein. Pleurotus Florida are having the most delignification ability amongst other micro-organisms. We determined the amounts of protein, essential and non essential amino acids of the produced microbial protein f...
متن کاملFirst evidence for the occurrence of N delta-acetyl-L-ornithine and quantification of the free amino acids in the cultivated mushroom, Pleurotus ostreatus.
The free amino acid profile of the fruiting bodies of Pleurotus ostreatus was studied in detail. The first evidence for the occurrence of N delta-acetyl-L-ornithine in the mushroom was presented, and 33 ninhydrin-positive compounds were determined, besides N delta-acetyl-L-ornithine. Alanine, glutamic acid, valine, glutamine, glycine and leucine were predominant protein amino acids occurring in...
