Talk:Lactarius turpis

Carbon tet?!?

An anonymous editor added this the other day:

"This species and L. helvus were formerly used (after boiling) as a spice in mushroom dishes in northern Europe, however, modern knowledge recognises these species as slighty carsinogenic (necatorine), and their use is not recommended by the officials."

I can't find any other sources of information that say that Lactarius turpis contains necatorine (carbon tetrachloride).

Since mushrooms aren't known for producing halogenated organic solvents, I find this information to be very suspect.

See note 9 of the current article. Necatorin is 7-hydroxycoumaro(5,6-c)cinnoline [sometimes written with the numbers (5,6,7) permuted], is mutagenic, and occurs in L. necator. Necatorine is a name for carbon tetrachloride. But I see that here the former is called Necatorine - this may be an error. Strobilomyces 19:17, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

A bit more and this could be a DYK
