T
he consumptions of wild-growing edible mushrooms as a
component of healthy human diet and they contain basic
nutrients, high proteins, vitamins as well as minerals required
for human growth and development. Because levels of essential
elements especially copper are very important but are able to
accumulate various toxic metals, this could represent a serious
risk to consumer health. For instance, many people collect
wild edible mushrooms in Turkey substantially contributing to
food intake. They have also been reported to have medicinal
properties. Some mushrooms have immunomodulatory, anti-
carcinogenic and anti-mutagenic properties and is still in use
as a healthy food for the prevention of cancer. The heavy metals
accumulation in macrofungi has been found to be affected by
various factors including environmental. Environmental factors
contain pH, amount of organic matter, soil metal concentrations,
and fungal factors including mushroom species, development
stages and biochemical composition. Copper is present in all
tissues and is required for cellular respiration along with it is
essential element in mammalian nutrition. Also Cu plays a vital
role in central nervous system development and is a cofactor
for countless enzymes. Serious damage can occur in case of
excessive Cu intake to body, when it is not taken in sufficient
quantity may result in incomplete development. In this study four
wild mushrooms species as
Agaricus campestris, Langermannia
gigantea, Pleurotus eryngii var. eryngii, Pleurotus eryngii var.
ferulae
that collected from three different region of Tunceli were
analyzed. Copper analysis was done using ETAAS and results
were evaluated statistically by SPSS. When evaluated in terms of
species Cu concentrations were similar statistically in
Agaricus

and

eryngii
and
Pleurotus eryngii var. ferulae.
When evaluated from
the point of view of the region, there is no difference in terms of
copper concentrations in the regions.
