Some wild edible mushrooms of genus Russula are consumed in the center region of Côte d'Ivoire. In this study, the proximate composition, mineral element and amino acid profile of three selected wild edible Russula species from Center of Côte d'Ivoire including Russula delica, Russula lepida and Russula mustelina were investigated. The mushrooms were harvested fresh, dried in an oven at 45°C for 48 hours, ground and analyzed according to standard procedures. Proximate analysis showed high level of proteins (38.08±0.29-38.52±0.23 %), crude fibre (9.59±0.21-19.78±0.7 %), carbohydrate (39.29±1.71-41.64±1.41 %), ash (12.7±0.16-13.80±0.10 %) and fat (4.06±0.11-5.70±0.05 %) in all species. Mineral analysis of all species indicated that the mushrooms were specifically rich in potassium, phosphorus, calcium and magnesium. R. delica contained the highest level of calcium and phosphorus. The mushrooms contained 18 amino acids among with the most predominant ones in all species were glutamic acid and valine. In addition, the ratios of essential amino acids to total amino acids were between 0.40 and 0.45. The high scores of essential amino acids present in these mushrooms implied that they have a high biological protein value. These mushrooms could be considered as a potential health food and may be of use to the food industry as a source of ingredients with high nutritional value.

“…As one of the major components in the dry matter of F. velutipes , protein accounts for approximately 178.9 g/kg dry weight to 279.5 g/kg dry weight of F. velutipes (Dikeman et al, 2005; Ko et al, 2007; Beluhan and Ranogajec, 2011; Akata et al, 2012; Pereira et al, 2012). The large range in the protein concentrations could be explained by the fact that protein concentration in this mushroom been shown to vary depending on the growth substrate, size of pileus, time of harvest and the availability of nitrogen sources in the growth substrate.…”

“…Cultivated F. velutipes have a slightly higher median value of carbohydrate content compared to the wild F. velutipes (Ko et al, 2007; Beluhan and Ranogajec, 2011; Akata et al, 2012; Pereira et al, 2012; Reis et al, 2012). Carbohydrates in F. velutipes can be categorized into three main groups: monosaccharides such as ribose, mannose, glucose, xylose, fucose, galactose, and fructose; disaccharides such as sucrose and trehalose, and polysaccharides such as chitin, β-glucan and starch (Dikeman et al, 2005; Kim et al, 2009; Beluhan and Ranogajec, 2011; Pereira et al, 2012; Reis et al, 2012).…”

Flammulina velutipes (enoki, velvet shank, golden needle mushroom or winter mushroom), one of the main edible mushrooms on the market, has long been recognized for its nutritional value and delicious taste. In recent decades, research has expanded beyond detailing its nutritional composition and delved into the biological activities and potential health benefits of its constituents. Many bioactive constituents from a range of families have been isolated from different parts of the mushroom, including carbohydrates, protein, lipids, glycoproteins, phenols, and sesquiterpenes. These compounds have been demonstrated to exhibit various biological activities, such as antitumour and anticancer activities, anti-atherosclerotic and thrombosis inhibition activity, antihypertensive and cholesterol lowering effects, anti-aging and antioxidant properties, ability to aid with restoring memory and overcoming learning deficits, anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, anti-bacterial, ribosome inactivation and melanosis inhibition. This review aims to consolidate the information concerning the phytochemistry and biological activities of various compounds isolated from F. velutipes to demonstrate that this mushroom is not only a great source of nutrients but also possesses tremendous potential in pharmaceutical drug development.

Introduction: Mushroom species have been used for medical purposes and as nutrients since the old times. The present study aimed to determine phenolic content, antioxidant activity and heavy metal content of Cyclocybe cylindracea (DC.) Vizzini & Angelini mushroom. Materials and Methods: Phenolic contents were screened with HPLC devices. TAS, TOS and OSI values were determined using Rel Assay kits. Heavy metal content were determined with atomic absorption method using an atomic absorption spectrophotometer. Result and Discussion: Gallic acid, hesperidin, catechin, syringic acid and hydroxybenzoic acid were detected in the mushroom. It was determined that the heavy metal content in C. cylindracea were generally at optimal levels and the TOS value of mushroom was high. Conclusion: C. cylindracea could be consumed as a good antioxidant source as long as it is obtained from safe areas.
