How it works

The HPLC tests separate adenosine and cordycepin and measure them against reference standards. The titration and UV/Vis tests are described in their sections, and their exact procedures are confirmed at quote.

Tests offered

Adenosine content by HPLC

Measures adenosine, a nucleoside used as a marker in cordyceps and other mushroom materials, by HPLC as a single compound.

Cordycepin content by HPLC

Measures cordycepin (3'-deoxyadenosine), a nucleoside of Cordyceps militaris, by HPLC as a single compound.

Adenosine and cordycepin content by HPLC

Measures adenosine and cordycepin by HPLC and reports each.

Cordycepic acid by titration

A titration result reported as cordycepic acid, the name used in cordyceps specifications for D-mannitol. Tell us the specification the result is to be compared with.

Beta-glucans in mushroom materials by UV/Vis

Determines beta-glucans in mushroom materials by UV/Vis. The exact procedure and the basis of the result are confirmed at quote.

Fucoidan content by UV/Vis

Determines fucoidan, a sulfated polysaccharide of brown seaweeds, by UV/Vis. The exact procedure is confirmed at quote.

Sending samples

Send the material sealed and labeled.

Tell us the material or extract and the label claim or specification. We confirm the sample amount at quote.
