Functional Mushrooms Testing
Functional mushroom products — lion's mane, reishi, cordyceps, chaga, turkey tail and blends — are sold on claims about what is in them. pH Solutions brings the same analytical rigor we apply to cannabis to a category with almost no mandatory testing.
We verify that the species on the label is the species in the jar, quantify the active compounds a claim rests on, and screen for the contaminants that arrive with agricultural inputs.
What's included
Panels
Species identity
DNA-based identification to confirm the declared species and detect substitution.
Active compounds
Beta-glucans, triterpenes, hericenones/erinacines and cordycepin, by product and claim.
Heavy metals
Arsenic, cadmium, lead and mercury by ICP-MS — mushrooms bioaccumulate metals.
Microbials & mycotoxins
Pathogen and mycotoxin screening for dried fruiting body, mycelium and extracts.
Pesticides
Pesticide residue screening on cultivated and wild-harvested material.
