ABSTRACT
This study was
done to evaluate In vitro composition of some vitamin contents in Pleurotus
ostreatus mushroom grown on HC1 — soaked palm oil bunch. Pleurotus ostreatus
mushroom was cultivated with palm oil bunch which the substrate was prepared by
drying the palm oil bunch (1 kg) which was soaked separately in 0.1%, 0.2%,
0.3%, 0.4% and 0.5% HC1 solution respectively for 48 hours while another 1 kg
was soaked in 50 ml of water and that serves as a control. Spectrophotometric
method was used in the determination of the vitamin content. The result
obtained in vitamin K shows that the level of 0.4% HC1 show there was
significant increase (P<0.05) when compared with the control, 0.1% HC1, 0.2% HC1, 0.3% HC1, and 0.5% HC1. Vitamin Bi shows that there was a significant (P><0.05) increase in control when compared with 0.1% HC1, 0.2% HC1 treated group and a non- significant (P>0.05)
when compared with 0.3% HC1 treated group. Vitamin B3 shows a significant (P<0.05) decrease in control when compared with 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.3%, 0.4% and 0.5%treared groups while 0.2% and 0.4% HC1 treated group are non-significant (P>0.05).
Vitamin E shows a significant decrease in 0.3%, 0.4% and 0.5% HC1- treated
group when compared with control. This study shows that the cultivation of
Pleurotus ostreatus mushroom grown on palm oil bunch substrate had some
essential vitamins when compared with the control which are biologically
beneficial.
