Oyster mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus)

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Oyster mushroom extract is produced from the fruiting body of Pleurotus ostreatus, the shelf-forming mushroom widely cultivated on hardwood and straw substrates. The extract is built around the polysaccharide fraction, predominantly β-glucans - glucose polymers with β-(1,3) and β-(1,6) linkages - which is the fraction the specification is normally written on. The material is a fine-textured powder and is supplied as a clean-label ingredient for supplement and food manufacturing.

SPECIFYING A GRADE

As with all mushroom extracts, the polysaccharide figure needs its method and its carrier stated alongside it. A polysaccharide content determined by UV measures total carbohydrate against a glucose standard and will also capture any carrier present in the powder, which is why two extracts quoting the same percentage can behave differently in a capsule. Purity, particle size and water dispersibility are agreed alongside the marker content.

APPLICATION

Application areas for oyster mushroom extract

  • Dietary supplements: tablets, capsules and powders
  • Functional foods and beverages, including snacks, drinks and meal replacements
  • Personal care and skincare formulations, where the polysaccharide fraction is used as a film-forming and moisture-binding ingredient
  • Pet food and animal nutrition

Water dispersibility means the extract can be used in both dry blends and liquid systems. For beverage use, the dispersion behaviour and the clarity of the final solution should be confirmed at the development stage.

QUALITY DOCUMENTATION

Quality certification

Each batch is tested by HPLC for purity and consistency and released against a Certificate of Analysis. Manufacturing is carried out under ISO9001, ISO22000, FSSC22000, HACCP, cGMP and FAMI-QS management systems, and the product range is certified for HALAL, KOSHER, NOP and EOS (organic) where applicable. Certificates are available on request. Ingredient authenticity - confirming that the material really is Pleurotus ostreatus fruiting body rather than milled substrate - is part of the batch release.

RELATED PRODUCTS

Other mushroom extracts in the range include organic reishi mushroom extract, shiitake mushroom extract and chaga mushroom extract powder.
