Abstract

Three specialty mushrooms produced commercially in Thailand, including Abalone mushroom No. 03 (Pleurotus cystidiosus O. K Miller), Hed Kon mushroom No. 02 (Lentinus squarrosulus Mont.) and Teenpok mushroom (Lentinus sajor-caju) were cultivated in four liquid media, i.e.PDB, media contained liquid extracts of water hyacinth leaves at 20, 30 and 40 g l-1 in order to select the most suitable medium for the production of flavor enhancing 5´-nucleotides. The results showed that the maximum 5´-nucleotides of 15.09 and 14.97 mg g-1 dry weight were produced from Teenpok mushroom cultivated in media containing liquid extracts of water hyacinth leaves at 30 and 40 g l-1, respectively. The maximum 5´-nucleotides of 12.75 mg g-1 was produced from Hed Kon mycelia cultivated in PDB.


Keywords: Lentinus sajor-caju, Lentinus squarrosulus, Pleurotus cystidiosus, water hyacinth, 5´ nucleotide
