Summary

Wild-grown Boletus badius, B. chrysentereon and B. variegatus and cultivated common mushroom (Agaricus bisporus) were stored at 6 or 20 deg C as intact fruiting bodies, wet slices or stewed slices for at least 2 days. No detectable levels of histamine and tyramine were observed. Concentrations of putrescine and cadaverine were as high as 1600 and 165 milligrammes/kilogramme dry matter in fruiting bodies of consumable quality. These levels seem to be safe for human consumption. No unambiguous effect of storage temperature on amine contents was observed.
