Assessment of Metal Contents in Hydumrufescens, Macrolepiota procera Mushrooms Collected from Turkey

Abstract

Wild-growing mushrooms have been considered as a delicious food in many countries for a long time. However, some of them can accumulate large concentrations of heavy metals, which can be dangerous to human health particularly, when the intake is high. Thanks to the climatic conditions, Turkey has also a great potential for wild edible mushroom species and several species have been consumed especially in rural areas. In this study, 13 metals (Mg, Al, Ca, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Se, Cd) and 3 isotopes of Pb (206Pb, 207Pb and 208Pb) contents in two different wild-growing edible mushroom species (Hydumrufescens, Macrolepiota procera) collected from Kastamonu forest in October of 2014, in Turkey were investigated. Mushroom samples were analyzed by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). The results showed that metal contents in Macrolepiota procera were higher than the metal contents in Hydumrufescens except Al and Mn. All of the toxic element concentrations (Cr, Cd, As) were low and below the world average in both mushroom species. Consequently, there was no any health risk associated with consumption of the analyzed wild edible mushroom species.
