We have many gourmet and medicinal mushroom cultures available in our catalog, and our selection is constantly growing, just like mycelium. Our cultures are selected from naturally occurring strains found within the boreal forests of canada, and from commercial production sources. Living mycelium cultures are suspended in 10ml luer lock syringes containing distilled water and nutrient media.
Each inoculation syringe includes a sterilized 18ga 1.5 dispensing needle and pre-sterilized alcohol swab. Each batch of liquid cultures is tested on agar to verify that they are free of contaminants, and select cultures are regularly grown out to validate that they are true to form. Syringes are held in a controlled incubating environment for a minimum of 2 weeks to confirm purity. Liquid cultures can remain viable for a year or more under proper storage conditions.If you do not plan to use it immediately, it is recommended to store it in the fridge. This item is made of distilled water, living mycelium, light malt extract, dextrose and peptone.
