Anyone know about the tryptamine content of mushrooms besides Psilocybes? swim wonders if there might be DMT, or such related compounds requiring an maoi for psychoactivity in edible mushrooms. He'd bioassay on himself, but.. he'd rather see what people have to say about it.. at least to start.

During my extensive research I can't remember to ever have seen any other tryptamines mentioned as being in mushrooms than psilocin, psilocybin, baeocystin, norbaeocystin and serotonin. Baeocystin and norbaeocystin are analogs of psilocybin found in trace quantities in mushrooms that also have psilocybin and psilocin.

Baeocystin is active and norbaeocystin is likely to be, but hasn't been researched. Serotonin does not cross the blood-brain-barrier, so mushrooms containing this tryptamine is therefore inactive, even with a MAOI.

I would be highly interested to be proven wrong, but I doubt any other tryptamines that may be psychedelic have been identified in mushrooms, edible or not.

It seems that no one has so far managed to isolate any tryptamines from mushrooms besides those ones.. but there may well be others still to discover. I might just try a gram or two with some rue and see what happens some day. Why not? It's one way to be fairly sure. Wouldn't that be incredible if it actually worked?

Because the harmala alkaloids in syrian rue will potentiate the mushrooms, you won't know what is in it, you'll end up very confused.

Psilocybin, serotonin and DMT all have a tryptamine backbone with an amine at one side.

Did anyone ever try to extract the psilocybin and eat "the rest", does it give any effect?
How bout eating the rests with a "rima", maybe the alkaloids left might give some effect.
Baeocystin anyone?

Major props to anyone who can extract pscilocybin without extracting Baeocystin along with it.

I came across this recently.

Well, you have the sclerotia from all claviceps strains ofcourse. Technically speaking it isn't realy a mushroom, but it's a fungus that looks like a mushroom.
