Proximate Analysis and Mineral Content of Laetiporus sulphureus Strain MFLUCC 12-0546 from Northern Thailand

Laetiporus sulphureus, a member of the fungal class Aphyllophorales (Polypores) of the Basidiomycota, is widely distributed in tropical countries. In this article, chemical composition and nutritional quality of the Thai L. sulphureus mushroom were investigated. Protein, fat, crude fibre and carbohydrate concentrations were 6.91, 1.70, 6.43, and 71.74% dry weight, respectively. Mineral contents were determined as mg/kg dry weight for Fe (2.28), Zn (1.20), Mn (0.35), Cu (0.14), Na (11.01), Ca (2.59), and Mg (1.09).
