L. Racz et al., MIGRATION ANALYSIS OF ELEMENTS FROM COMPOST AND CASING MATERIAL TO THE FRUIT BODIES IN CULTIVATED MUSHROOMS (AGARICUS-BISPORUS), Acta alimentaria, 24(2), 1995, pp. 161-166
The macro and trace element uptake of cultivated mushroom was investig
ated from spiked (macro and trace elements) soil and casing materials.
The soil samples and the mushroom samples were analysed after careful
sampling, sample preparation and simultaneous multielement ICP-AES de
termination. In case of some element treatment positive effect, in oth
er cases negative effect on the amount of crops was observed. Our of a
ll elements used in treatments mainly the intake of Ni and Cd was meas
ured, which can be important from the toxicological point of view.
