Reishi Extract Polysaccharides Beta Glucan

Premium Reishi Extract | 50% Polysaccharides, 30% Beta Glucan 

Earth Made Nutritions Inc. supplies pharmaceutical-grade Reishi Extract (Ganoderma lucidum) with documented beta glucan content verified by enzymatic testing. Our Reishi Extract Polysaccharides Beta Glucan contains 50% total polysaccharides and 30% beta glucan—extracted exclusively from mature fruiting bodies using ethanol extraction.

Key Differentiators:

· Megazyme K-YBGL enzymatic testing confirms true beta glucan content

· Fruiting body only—no mycelium or grain substrate

· 80 mesh particle size for complete water solubility

· NSF GMP, FSSC22000, Kosher, and Halal certified facility

Why Beta Glucan Content Matters?

The Industry Problem: Starch vs. Active Compounds

Many suppliers advertise "high polysaccharide" reishi extracts that primarily contain inactive starches (alpha-glucans). Standard UV-Vis testing cannot distinguish between:

· Alpha-glucans(starches from grain substrate) – minimal bioactivity

· Beta-glucans(1-3, 1-6 linkages) – the researched active fraction

Our Solution: Enzymatic Verification

We use theMegazyme K-YBGL assay, which enzymatically measures only beta-D-glucans while excluding:

· Alpha-glucans

· Maltodextrin

· Grain substrate residue

· Generic polysaccharide fillers

Each batch includes a Certificate of Analysis with enzymatic test results.

Fruiting Body vs. Mycelium

Our extract comes exclusively from mature Ganoderma lucidum fruiting bodies grown on hardwood logs, providing Reishi Extract Polysaccharides Beta Glucan with consistent quality and verified active compound content.

What this means for your formulation:

· Higher concentration of researched compounds

· No grain substrate contamination

· Consistent batch-to-batch composition

· Clean label appeal

Manufacturing & Quality Control

Extraction Process

1. Raw Material Selection: Mature fruiting bodies (minimum 3-month growth cycle)

2. Ethanol Extraction: Targets polysaccharides and beta glucans specifically

3. Low-Temperature Concentration: Vacuum concentration below 60°C preserves molecular structure

4. Spray Drying: Creates fine, water-soluble powder

Quality Testing Protocol

Every batch undergoes:

✓Identity Testing: HPTLC fingerprint analysis confirmsGanoderma lucidum

✓Beta Glucan Assay: Megazyme enzymatic method

✓Heavy Metals: ICP-MS testing

✓Microbiology: Total plate count, yeast/mold, pathogens

✓Solvent Residue: GC testing for ethanol

✓Particle Size: Laser diffraction analysis

FAQ

Q: How is this different from reishi mushroom powder?

A: Mushroom powder is simply ground dried mushrooms—mostly indigestible fiber. Our extract concentrates the bioactive polysaccharides and beta glucans through ethanol extraction, removing inactive fiber and starches.

Q: What is the typical shelf life?

A: 24 months when stored in sealed containers at room temperature, away from light and moisture.

Q: Can you provide samples?

A: Yes. We offer free samples (50-100g) for qualified manufacturers and formulators. Contact us with your company details.

Q: Do you offer custom extraction ratios?

A: Yes. For orders above 500kg, we can develop custom specifications. Minimum development quantity and lead time apply.

Q: Is this extract organic certified?

A: Our standard product holds organic certification. Organic Certificate of Compliance available upon request.

Q: What testing proves there are no grain fillers?

A: The Megazyme enzymatic assay detects alpha-glucans, which indicate grain substrate presence. Our extracts show minimal alpha-glucan content (<10%), confirming fruiting body source.

Q: How quickly can you ship?

A: Standard specifications ship within 2 business days from our nearest warehouse. Custom orders typically require 15-20 days.

Q: What is your minimum order quantity?

A: 25kg for standard specifications. Custom specifications may require higher minimums.
