Cordyceps Extract (Cordyceps militaris Extract) is refined from premium cultivated fruit bodies or mycelium, serving as a high-quality natural alternative to traditional wild Cordyceps sinensis in the modern health industry
During manufacturing, we utilize gentle water-ethanol composite extraction combined with low-temperature spray drying to maximally extract and preserve the bioactive polysaccharide components, accurately standardizing them from 10% to 50% (measured via UV-Vis spectrophotometry)
Water-Ethanol Composite Extraction: Employs a gentle composite extraction process to fully yield active components while strictly controlling organic solvent residues.
Accurate Polysaccharide Standardization: Every batch is strictly tested via UV-Vis spectrophotometry to ensure precise and consistent active ingredient concentrations
High Flowability & Soluble Performance: With 100% passing through an 80-mesh screen, the powder disperses quickly in water, offering exceptional physical stability ideal for automated encapsulation and tableting.
Verified International Safety: Extensively screened for heavy metals, pesticide residues, and microbiological indicators; non-irradiated to guarantee end-product safety and regulatory compliance
Note: The following COA data serves as a standard framework example based on our current highest specification (50% Polysaccharides)

Q: What is the difference between Cordyceps militaris Extract and wild Cordyceps sinensis?
A: Cordyceps militaris can be produced at scale through standardized cultivation, offering better-controlled active ingredients (such as cordyceps polysaccharides and cordycepin) at a significantly more competitive price point and with stable supply
Q: Does this powder easily clump or form sediment in liquid applications?
A: No. Manufactured via advanced spray drying with 100% passing through an 80-mesh screen, it exhibits excellent dispersibility and dissolves fully in water.
Q: Which testing method is used to determine Cordyceps polysaccharide content?
A: We strictly employ UV-Vis Spectrophotometry following standardized pharmacopoeia protocols to ensure data consistency across all production lots
Q: How is the powder's flowability during automated manufacturing?
A: The bulk density is controlled within an optimal range (0.4-0.6 g/ml), offering smooth flowability without sticking to equipment, making it well-suited for high-speed tableting and capsule filling.
Q: Do you support small trial orders for new product development?
A: Absolutely. We understand R&D requirements and fully support low MOQ orders as well as free sample requests for testing.
