What’s more, a study by Saudi Arabian researchers found that cordycepin, a bioactive component in Cordyceps, has the potential of preventing or treating many diseases, including cancer, diabetes ...
Ophiocordyceps sinensis consists of two parts, a fungal endosclerotium (within the caterpillar) and stroma. [12] The stroma is the upper fungal part and is dark brown or black, but can be a yellow color when fresh, and longer than the caterpillar itself, usually 4–10 cm.
Like other members of the Cordyceps genus, C. militaris produces the pharmacologically active compound cordycepin. Cordycepin is a nucleoside analogue of adenosine-differing by only a single hydroxyl group. It has been shown to induce apoptosis, reduce inflammation, and inhibit RNA transcription in cell cultures.
In May, Huber’s Butchery in Singapore became the first retail store to sell cultured meat, a shredded chicken by Good Meat made with just 3% cultivated meat. The rest is plant-based ingredients ...
Root vegetables were selected over wood or cotton, which are more widely used in the production of nanofibres, [5] because root vegetables grow faster and are easier to process. During early development, Whale and Hepworth's team bought large quantities of carrots from local grocery stores, finding them a cheap and convenient source of cellulose.
