|
|
|
The nutritional composition of Fomitopsis pinicola (F. pinicola) fruiting body has been analyzed for medicinal and edible uses. The contents of crude fibers, carbohydrates, crude protein, moisture, crude fats and ashes were 43.3%, 26.3%, 12.8%, 12.6%, 3.3% and 1.7%, respectively. Eighteen amino acids were found in F. pinicola. Among total amino acids, glutamate content was the highest (457 mg/100 g dry mushroom) and arginine, glycine, valine, aspartate and isoleucine were followed. Concerning free amino acids, glutamine, arginine, trytophan, and glutamate were dominant. The vitamin E content was the highest (276 mg/100 g dry mushroom), then vitamin H and vitamin B2 were followed. The mineral contents were as follows: K 165.06 mg, P 77.57 mg, Mg 46.11 mg, Fe 21.56 mg, and Ca 16.90 mg based on 100 g dry mushroom.
