Seven locally available edible mushrooms were screened for their hepatoprotective activities using paracetamol (APAP)-induced liver injury in the rat as a model of chemical hepatitis. A single oral dose of 1.0 g/kg of APAP was able to produce significantly elevated levels of serum glutamic pyruvic t

โฆ Synopsis
The volatile ยฏavour composition of cultivated mushroom species, Agaricus bisporus, Pleurotus ยฏorida and Calocybe indica of India was analysed by capillary GC following isolation by simultaneous distillation and solvent extraction (SDE) at reduced pressure. About 25 ยฏavour components were identiยฎed and their variation in the three species is highlighted. The most abundant compound was 1-octen-3-ol and its concentration was highest in P. ยฏorida. The other important components were n-octanol, 3-octanol, 3-octanone, 2-octen-1-ol, n-pentanal, n-pentanol, 1-hexanol, benzyl alcohol, 2-octenal and n-octanal.
