Description

Poisoning from the Amanita group of mushrooms comprises approximately 3% of all poisonings in the U.S. These mushrooms contain primarily two types of toxins, amatoxins and phallotoxins. Phallotoxins have a more limited toxicity potential and they primarily consist of phalloidin (PHN) and phallacidin (PCN). Amatoxins, on the other hand, are very toxic and they primarily consist of alpha-amanitin (AA), beta-amanitin (BA) and gamma-amanitin (GA). Toxin levels can vary among various species, even among varieties of the same species of Amanita mushroom family. PMID: 24911374 Source: Regenstrief LOINC, PMID: 24911374
