Over the years, the Spring Festival Gala will contribute many golden sentences to make people relish.
For example, in the sketch "Hourly Worker", there is a golden sentence: "If you wear a vest, I don't know you!" ”
In fact, sometimes if you change your vest, you may not know each other.
For example, when it comes to cordyceps, everyone is familiar with it and praises.
What to say "tonify the three treasures, deer antler velvet, ginseng, cordyceps";
It is also said that this is "golden grass", "fairy grass" and so on.
And seeing "penicillium mycelium of bat moth" is probably "although I know all the words, I don't know what it means".
For "Cordyceps sinensis", everyone knows its preciousness and rarity.
Formation of Cordyceps: Cordyceps fungus parasitizes the larvae of the bat moth family and forms a sclerotia and a fungal complex of substellations.
Where is the precious?
Cordyceps is rich in crude protein, crude fiber, a variety of amino acids, ergotol, and cordycepin.
Where is the rarity?
In 2020, the International Union for Conservation of Nature (I-UCN) added Cordyceps sinensis to the new Red List of Threatened Species[22], the "world's most expensive fungus" that has become a "vulnerable" species.
And what about the status quo?
At present, Cordyceps sinensis has broad development prospects and large market demand, but its market popularity will continue for a long time under the condition that wild resources are on the verge of depletion and the existing artificial cultivation technology cannot break through the existing level. In the process of developing and utilizing Cordyceps sinensis, problems such as the destruction of natural resources, the lack of relevant legal supervision and insufficient social education have become increasingly prominent. 【1】
They say that God has closed the door for you, and a window will open.
If cordyceps is a door, then Penicillium mycelium bat moth is that window.
What is Penicillium bat moth?
Penicillium bat moth pseudomycelium is a modern high-tech biotechnology, using fresh cordyceps sinensis isolated from the fungus - Penicillium bat moth pseudomycelium strain, belonging to the genus Penicillium vaccinus fungus of the family Plexus sporporaceae, which is cultivated by artificial deep fermentation.
Penicillium mycelium of bat moth mainly contains adenosine, cordycepin, a variety of sterols, a large number of fatty acids and inorganic elements.
Studies have shown that the fermented mycelial powder of Penicillium pseudomyces of artificial bat moth is basically the same as that of natural cordyceps in terms of chemical inorganic elements, and its harmful heavy metals As, Cd, Sb and Hg are lower or even less than natural cordyceps. In terms of bioactive components, the content analysis of artificial bat moth Penicillium fermentation mycelium powder and natural cordyceps in its main functional components such as adenosine also showed that the hyphae powder was higher than that of Cordyceps sinensis. 【2】
This shows that the artificially cultivated mycelium can not only maintain the functional components of natural cordyceps, but also effectively reduce the possible pollution of cordyceps by natural environmental factors, and also prove that it can better achieve standardized production and quality control as a substitute for natural cordyceps. 【2】
Penicillium mycelium of the bat moth has been widely used as a substitute for cordyceps.
This time, seeing this, did you think of another line in the sketch "Hourly Work" "You took off your vest, I still know you".
So, do you get acquainted?
To make a question, test you: "bat moth penicillium mycelium" who changed the vest?
