This study analyzed the alpha, beta and gamma amanitin, phalloidin (PHN) and phallacidin (PCN) content of L. cristata collected from different regions of Turkey. Toxin levels have been assessed using a reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) system with ultraviolet detectors. In this study, the L. cristata mushroom was not found to contain any amatoxins or phallotoxins. However, this finding does not mean that this mushroom is edible. New studies regarding the toxin content of L. cristata may be useful to understand the toxicity of this species.en10.1080/15569543.2017.1337034info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessAmanitinphalloidinLepiota cristataHPLCtoxinLepiota cristata does not contain amatoxins or phallotoxinsArticle372149153WOS:000431710300008Q3Q1
