Enfoque Introductorio El Seminario denominado ESTUDIO CRIMINOLÓGICO Y CRIMINALÍSTICO DE RIESGOS DEL CONSUMO DE HONGOS TÓXICOS Y POTENCIALMENTE TÓXICOS fue seleccionado como tema de Tesis por el grupo de alumnos del Seminario en virtud de la importancia y peligro que reviste el consumo de los mismos, por la gran variedad de especies de hongos que existen y por la gravedad de las intoxicaciones que producen en una persona luego de su ingesta, llegando a provocar la muerte en algunos casos. Las setas tóxicas pueden provocar diversos trastornos en función de la toxina que contengan. Aunque los hongos superiores no se encuentran en alta proporción en la dieta humana, presentan un alto riesgo tóxico, principalmente por la frecuencia de la intoxicación, incluso con una alta fatalidad, en relación al número de personas expuestas. Debido a que las distintas especies de hongos varían ampliamente en las toxinas que contienen y porque identificarlas con certeza es difícil, se utiliza la clínica más que un sistema taxonómico de clasificación. Aún así existen 8 grupos de hongos tóxicos reconocidos con mayor frecuencia en función del tipo de toxina que contienen: ciclopéptidos, giromitrina, orellanina, muscarina, coprina, ácido iboténico/ muscinol, psilocibina y toxinas gastrointestinales (Rios, 2012) Por lo expuesto anteriormente es necesario conocer la etiología de la intoxicación, en el entendido que la etiología (gr. aitia, causa) consiste en la búsqueda y conocimiento del origen o motivación de una intoxicación. Conforme a esto, para clasificar las intoxicaciones, es importante considerar si en su producción ha habido o no voluntariedad, es decir, si el sujeto activo ha deseado realizarla o si la intoxicación se produjo de forma accidental. (Repetto, 2007) 1 2 El propósito que se persigue con la elaboración del trabajo y los distintos módulos que lo conforman es que la investigación realizada llegue a la población guatemalteca y dé a conocer los riesgos y las consecuencias a que puede llevar el consumo de estos productos. La metodología y modalidad empleada para el desarrollo del trabajo es eminentemente investigativa bibliográfica; este tipo de trabajos ha sido descrito por algunos autores como “de transcripción” y procuran dar extensión y profundidad al tema. En el trabajo se incluyeron varias partes así en los antecedentes del tema, se incluyeron asimismo estudios realizados por expertos tanto a nivel nacional como internacional, casos que por el consumo inadecuado de estos productos han generado situaciones calificadas como impericias, imprudencias, dolos o criminalidad premeditada. Un glosario genérico del tema y un glosario especializado se añadió también. Se definieron los objetivos que finalmente pretenden arribar al desarrollo del tema grupal “Estudio Criminológico y Criminalístico de riesgos del consumo de hongos tóxicos y potencialmente tóxicos” y a profundizar sobre el módulo Amanita farinosa. 3 B. ANTECEDENTES El consumo de hongos o setas tóxicas es un hecho relativamente frecuente que data de la antigüedad: Sebastián de Covarrubias, en el primer diccionario de la Lengua Castellana (siglo XVII) cita a Plinio el Viejo, quien consideraba

  • Molecular Phylogenetic Studies in the Genus Amanita
    1170 Molecular phylogenetic studies in the genus Amanita I5ichael Weiß, Zhu-Liang Yang, and Franz Oberwinkler Abstracl A group of 49 Amanita species that had been thoroughly examined morphologically and amtomically was analyzed by DNA sequence compadson to estimate natural groups and phylogenetic rclationships within the genus. Nuclear DNA sequences coding for a part of the ribosomal large subunit were determined and evaluated using neighbor-joining with bootstrap analysis, parsimony analysis, conditional clustering, and maximum likelihood methods, Sections Amanita, Caesarea, Vaginatae, Validae, Phalloideae, and Amidella were substantially confirmed as monophyletic groups, while the monophyly of section Lepidell.t remained unclear. Branching topologies between and within sections could also pafiially be derived. Stbgenera Amanita an'd Lepidella were not supported. The Mappae group was included in section Validae. Grouping hypotheses obtained by DNA analyses are discussed in relation to the distribution of morphological and anatomical chamcters in the studied species.

  • Thirty Plus Years of Mushroom Poisoning
    Summary of the Poisoning Reports in the NAMA Case Registry for 2006 through 2017 By Michael W. Beug, Chair NAMA Toxicology Committee In the early years of NAMA, toxicology was one of the concerns of the Mycophagy Committee. The existence of toxicology committees in the Puget Sound and Colorado clubs stimulated the NAMA officers to separate the good and bad aspects of ingesting mushrooms. In 1973 they established a standing Toxicology Committee initially chaired by Dr. Duane H. (Sam) Mitchel, a Denver, Colorado MD who founded the Colorado Mycological Society. In the early 1970s, Sam worked with Dr. Barry Rumack, then director of the Rocky Mountain Poison Center (RMPC) to establish a protocol for handling information on mushroom poisonings resulting in the center becoming nationally recognized for handling mushroom poisonings. Encouraged by Dr Orson Miller and acting on a motion by Kit Scates, the NAMA trustees then created the Mushroom Poisoning Case Registry in 1982. Dr. Kenneth Cochran laid the groundwork for maintaining the Registry at the University of Michigan. Individuals can report mushroom poisonings using the NAMA website (www.namyco.org). The reporting is a volunteer effort and at the end of each year members of the NAMA toxicology committee assemble all of the reports for the previous year as well as any other earlier cases that can still be documented. Individuals are encouraged to submit reports directly through the NAMA website. In addition, members of the toxicology committee work with Poison Centers to gather mushroom poisoning reports. The toxicology committee has 160 toxicology identifiers living in 36 states and 3 Canadian Provinces.

  • How to Distinguish Amanita Smithiana from Matsutake and Catathelasma Species
    VOLUME 57: 1 JANUARY-FEBRUARY 2017 www.namyco.org How to Distinguish Amanita smithiana from Matsutake and Catathelasma species By Michael W. Beug: Chair, NAMA Toxicology Committee A recent rash of mushroom poisonings involving liver failure in Oregon prompted Michael Beug to issue the following photos and information on distinguishing the differences between the toxic Amanita smithiana and edible Matsutake and Catathelasma. Distinguishing the choice edible Amanita smithiana Amanita smithiana Matsutake (Tricholoma magnivelare) from the highly poisonous Amanita smithiana is best done by laying the stipe (stem) of the mushroom in the palm of your hand and then squeezing down on the stipe with your thumb, applying as much pressure as you can. Amanita smithiana is very firm but if you squeeze hard, the stipe will shatter. Matsutake The stipe of the Matsutake is much denser and will not shatter (unless it is riddled with insect larvae and is no longer in good edible condition). There are other important differences. The flesh of Matsutake peels or shreds like string cheese. Also, the stipe of the Matsutake is widest near the gills Matsutake and tapers gradually to a point while the stipe of Amanita smithiana tends to be bulbous and is usually widest right at ground level. The partial veil and ring of a Matsutake is membranous while the partial veil and ring of Amanita smithiana is powdery and readily flocculates into small pieces (often disappearing entirely). For most people the difference in odor is very distinctive. Most collections of Amanita smithiana have a bleach-like odor while Matsutake has a distinctive smell of old gym socks and cinnamon redhots (however, not all people can distinguish the odors).

  • 2020 Oklahoma Native Plant Record
    58 Oklahoma Native Plant Record Volume 20, December 2020 SOME COMMON AMANITA SPECIES OF OKLAHOMA Clark L. Ovrebo Department of Biology University of Central Oklahoma Edmond, OK 73034 [email protected] Jay Justice 16055 Michelle Drive Alexander, AR 72002 ABSTRACT Brief descriptions and photos are presented for twenty species of the mushroom genus Amanita that are common to Oklahoma. The descriptions and illustrations introduce mushroom morphology and terminology for Amanitas that are important for their identification. Short diagnoses are also presented for each of the seven sections of Amanita. The species are arranged according to their placement in each section. One species, A. persicina, has not yet been reported for Oklahoma but we include it with the speculation that it is present in the pine forests of eastern Oklahoma. Key words: Agaricomycetes, Amanitaceae, mushrooms, biodiversity INTRODUCTION present. The geographical “hot spot” that has the greatest diversity of Amanitas in Amanita is a charismatic genus because North America, and perhaps the entire of its reputation for having some of the world, is the Southeastern/Gulf Coast deadliest poisonous species, because of the regions of the United States. We cannot lore associated with several species, and estimate for sure how many species occur in because of their artistic beauty. Amanitas Oklahoma but it could be as many as one rank among the most photographed or hundred. painted of all wild mushrooms. Illustrations In this article, we report on and illustrate of Amanitas are frequently featured on tea some of the frequently encountered towels, coffee cups and many other kitchen Amanitas in Oklahoma.
