Authentication and Verification of Functional Mushroom Ingredients Using NMR Spectroscopy
Purity-IQ applied NMR spectroscopy to functional mushroom ingredients, generating full compositional fingerprints in a single measurement. The method differentiates fruiting body, mycelium, full spectrum, and mycelium-on-substrate materials, and detects undeclared fillers like maltodextrin and polydextrose. These findings highlight the need for non-targeted testing to support authentic identity claims.
What You Can Expect
Explore valuable, science-backed insights designed to expand your knowledge and keep you informed.
Verified Species Identity
Metabolomic fingerprinting confirms species identity and distinguishes fruiting body from mycelium, full spectrum, and mycelium-on-substrate materials.
Hidden Filler Detection
NMR identifies and quantifies polydextrose, maltodextrin, and grain-derived starch that can artificially inflate β-glucan assay results.
Complete Compositional Screening
NMR identifies and quantifies polydextrose, maltodextrin, and grain-derived starch that can artificially inflate β-glucan assay results.
