The Energy Powerhouse – Commercial-Grade Genetics.
₹5500.00₹4500.00
Cordyceps militaris is one of the most highly prized functional mushrooms in the world, renowned for its striking, bright orange fruiting bodies and its powerful bioactive compounds, primarily cordycepin. Traditionally used to support stamina, respiratory health, and overall vitality, this species has become a top choice for commercial cultivators and functional food researchers.
Our YubeBotanica test tube agar slants provide a pristine, long-term storage solution for these elite genetics. Cultured on a specialized nutrient agar recipe, this aggressive isolation is ready to be expanded into liquid culture, master grain jars, or specialized fruiting substrates.
Strain Specifications
Genetics: Cordyceps militaris (Commercial Isolate).
Format: Live mycelium cultivated on a sterile nutrient agar slant inside a durable test tube.
Growth Characteristics: Displays distinct, vibrant orange pigmentation when exposed to light, with fast-colonizing, dense mycelial growth.
Fruiting Substrate: Thrives on supplemented grain substrates (such as brown rice mixed with a nutrient broth of yeast and peptone) rather than traditional wood or dung bases.
Why Cultivators Choose Our Cordyceps
High Cordycepin Potential: This specific isolation has been selected for its robust fruiting capabilities and potential for high bioactive compound yields.
Long-Term Viability: Agar slants in test tubes offer superior longevity compared to petri dishes, making them ideal for genetic libraries and master culture preservation.
Clean Expansion: The sealed test tube environment minimizes the risk of contamination, providing a perfect, sterile starting point to inoculate hundreds of jars or liquid culture batches.
What You Receive
1 x Test Tube Agar Slant: Containing live, isolated Cordyceps militaris mycelium.
Parafilm Sealed: Ensuring moisture retention and a sterile barrier during shipping.
Storage Tip: Test tube cultures can be stored in a clean, cool, and dark environment (like a dedicated culture fridge at 2–4°C) for several months to preserve viability before expansion.
