Bioactive Alkaloids from Fungi: Psilocybin

DNA Authentication and Chemical Analysis of Psilocybe Mushrooms Reveal Widespread Misdeterminations in Fungaria and Inconsistencies in Metabolites

“…Although our focus was specifically on literature pertaining to Psilocybe , psilocybin has been reported from other species such as Agrocybe praecox (Pers.) Fayod ( 55 , 56 ), although there is good reason to believe this may have been a misidentification of Psilocybe subcubensis Guzmán ( 57 ). Unfortunately, because no vouchers were deposited, it is impossible to reexamine the material to determine the true identity.…”

“…Genera Coprinopsis, Panaeolus, Inocybe, dan Psilocybe saat dilakukan uji pewarna Ehrlich menghasilkan perubahan warna dari kuning menjadi cokelat sedikit kemerahan, cokelat terang sedikit merah, merah, dan merah kecokelatan yang diduga positif mengandung senyawa psikotropika golongan psilocybin atau psilosin. Menurut Mahmood (2013), genera Coprinopsis, Panaeolus, Inocybe, dan Psilocybe telah teridentifikasi mengandung senyawa psikotropika golongan psilocybin ataupun psilosin. Reagen Ehrlich merupakan uji kimia yang digunakan untuk mendeteksi adanya asam amino triptofan.…”
