Major and trace elements in sclerotium of Pleurotus tuber-regium (Ósū) mushroom—Dietary intake and risk in southeastern Nigeria

2013-02-01

Abstract excerpt

This paper presents the results of the determination of Ag, Al, Ba, Ca, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Hg, K, Mg, Mn, Na, Ni, P, Pb, Rb, Sr and Zn in 30 specimens of the sclerotia of Pleurotus tuber-regium mushroom from two markets in southeastern Nigeria. The elements were determined by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES). The K and Mg contents ranged from 500 to 10,000μg/g (dry weight), follow...
