Özet:

Nutritional and Quantitative analysis of the milky mushroom (Calocybe indica) were carriedout. The nutritional analysis results showed the presence of Moisture,Crude fibre, ash and low content in fat value. Micro nutrients like Iron,Zinc,Copper Selenium and Manganese were tested along with Macro nutrients like Sodium,Potassium,Calcium,Phosphorus amd Magnesium were tested with mushroom dry powder. Quantitative analysis confirmed that both the mushrooms possess the presence of pharmacologically active compounds like phenols, flavonoids, saponins and tannins. Further subjection of these mushrooms for quantitative analysis showed the presence of protein 0.66 (T1), 0.61(T2),Free amino acids, 0.44(T1).0.35(T2),Total Phenols 0.55 (T1),0.80(T2),Tanin 0.14 (T1), 0.19( T2).Thus, the study suggests that mushroom varieties are nutrient rich and compounds that can be explored for their medicinal properties.
