Earth Made Nutritions provides standardized Cordyceps Sinensis Extract, also known as Cordyceps Sinensis Extract Polysaccharides Beta Glucan, with guaranteed 50% Polysaccharides and 30% Beta Glucan. This ingredient provides constant bioactive concentrations for supplement manufacture from regulated mycelium culture utilizing dual-phase extraction (water + ethanol).
Notable differences:
For capsule filling and beverage blending, the 80-mesh brownish-yellow powder flows well.

Many generic cordyceps powders include 10-20% polysaccharides and unstandardized beta glucan. Our dual-specification ensures:
• UV-VIS method: 50% total polysaccharides
· Beta glucan: 30% (Megazyme K-YBGL)
This removes starch filler from lower-quality extracts.
Cordyceps wild-harvested absorb soil pollutants. The Cs-4 mycelium liquid fermentation process:
Removes heavy metal bioaccumulation hazards
Maintains batch-to-batch consistency.
Protection of endangered wildlife populations
Solubility:Fully water-soluble after alcohol precipitation removes insoluble chitin
Pasteurization-resistant up to 120°C
Flow properties: <5% moisture inhibits hopper caking.

Problem with industry standard testing:
Simple UV-VIS polysaccharide tests can't distinguish active beta glucans from inactive starch fillers. A product showing "50% polysaccharides" might contain mostly maltodextrin.
Our solution:
1. Megazyme enzymatic assay (K-YBGL)specifically quantifies beta-(1,3)/(1,6)-D-glucan
2. HPTLC fingerprintingconfirmsOphiocordycepsspecies identity
3. Iodine staining testdetects grain substrate residues (ensures gluten-free status)
Mushrooms bioaccumulate metals from soil. Wild-harvested cordyceps often exceeds safety limits. Our controlled fermentation tanks eliminate environmental contamination sources.
Tested per batch:
· Lead, Arsenic, Cadmium, Mercury (ICP-MS method)
· Results provided in Certificate of Analysis
· NSF GMP(facility inspection passed 2024)
· FSSC22000(food safety management)
· USDA Organic(mycelium cultivation)
· Kosher & Halal(Orthodox Union certified)

Mix Cordyceps Sinensis Extract Polysaccharides Beta Glucan with pre-workouts and recovery drinks. During intensive exercise, its 30% beta glucan boosts immunity, and it collaborates with rhodiola and ashwagandha.
Use 300-500mg capsules or powders per serving.
Ideal for mushroom coffee blends and nootropic drinks:
· Heat-stable through standard brewing processes
· Water-soluble for clear solutions (no sediment)
· Mild flavor profile compatible with coffee/tea bases
Typical usage:250-400mg per 8oz serving
The fine particle size ensures smooth encapsulation:
· Runs cleanly through automated capsule fillers
· Low moisture (<5%) supports 24-month shelf life
· Blends uniformly in multivitamin matrices
Typical usage:500-1000mg per daily dose
Our extraction process removes fiber that causes sedimentation in syrups and tinctures. Maintains stability across pH 3-8 range.

Q: What's the difference between "polysaccharides" and "beta glucan"?
A: Total polysaccharides include both active compounds (beta glucans) and inactive fillers (starches/alpha-glucans). Beta glucan specifically measures the (1,3)/(1,6)-linked molecules responsible for immune effects. A product with 50% polysaccharides but only 5% beta glucan is mostly filler.
Q: Is this from wild caterpillar cordyceps or cultivated?
A: Our extract comes from liquid fermentation of Cs-4 mycelium (the fungal tissue). This method:
· Produces consistent bioactive profiles
· Avoids heavy metal contamination from wild sources
· Protects endangeredOphiocordyceps sinensispopulations
Wild caterpillar cordyceps cost $20,000+/kg and face authentication issues.
Q: Does it contain maltodextrin or other carriers?
A: Our standard specification is carrier-free (pure extract). Some spray-dried versions may use 5-10% maltodextrin for flow properties—this is disclosed on the COA. Request "carrier-free" when ordering if maximum concentration is needed.
Q: How do you ensure gluten-free status?
A: Mycelium can be grown on grain substrates (rice, barley). We use:
1. Substrate screening:Tests for residual grain proteins
2. Purification:Multi-stage filtration removes substrate particles
3. Final verification:Iodine staining confirms no starch contamination
Gluten testing available upon request (<20ppm per FDA standard).
Q: Will it dissolve clearly in beverages?
A: Yes. The alcohol precipitation step removes insoluble chitin and fiber that cause cloudiness. The extract forms clear solutions in water, maintaining transparency in functional waters and ready-to-drink formulations. Test samples available to verify compatibility with your specific beverage matrix.
Inventory reliability:Maintained stock levels eliminate production delays. Our 25kg minimum order (vs 500kg+ from overseas suppliers) supports agile manufacturing.
Technical support:Our team assists with:
· Dosage recommendations based on application
· Formulation compatibility testing
· Regulatory documentation (NDI, GRAS status)
Transparent sourcing:Full traceability from fermentation facility to your dock. Supply chain documentation provided per batch.
Sustainability commitment:Fermentation-based production uses 90% less land vs agricultural cultivation. Our ISO 14001 environmental management system minimizes waste and energy use.
