PURPOSE: To mass-produce a fruit body of Cordyceps sinensis Sacc. having uniform form at a low cost by grinding mycelium produced by artificial culture, inoculating the mycelium into a culturing substrate consisting of chrysalis after several days from pupation and growing the mycelium into a fruit body. CONSTITUTION: Cordyceps sinensis Sacc. (e.g. Cordyceps militaris) is artificially cultured by a method inoculating a sterilized culturing substrate of chrysalis system with original fungi of Cordyceps sinensis Sacc. and culturing the fungi under dark conditions to produce a mycelium. Then, the mycelium is subjected to pulverizing treatment, preferably together with the culturing substrate and inoculated into a culturing substrate consisting of chrysalis after several days from pupation (preferably silkworm chriysalis) to grow the mycelium into a fruit body. The pulverized mycelium is grown into the fruit body by culturing the mycelium under dark conditions of 10 deg.C for 30 days to form the mycelium over whole the culturing substrate, carrying out culture at 20 deg.C and 400-600 lux until all mycelia exhibit red color and embedding the mycelium into vermiculite-like soil together with fresh chriysalis which is the culturing substrate and culturing the mycelium. |
