摘要
Post-harvest changes in the biochemical composition of the mushroom were studied. Non-structural polysaccharide was found at levels greater than 10% dry wt in the fresh mushroom. After 4 days storage, the level decreased to below 5% dry weight. The polysaccharide appeared to contain only glucose residues joined by .alpha.-1,4 and .alpha.-1,6 linkages. The chitin content of cell walls increased by about 50%. during 4 days storage, while cell wall glucan decreased. There was a large increase in urea content.
