Demonstrated antitumor activity
We characterize each species indicating its culture medium and origin, we check the spores and hyphae of each species and we identify its DNA by means of molecular biology (PCR) techniques.
This is the process we follow, for example, with the research carried out with Maitake, a species from which we identified three new Galician stocks.
In addition, this type of procedure has allowed us to identify the strains of Reishi and Maitake that showed anticancer activity on cell lines in the studies carried out with the oncology research group of the A Coruña hospital (Inibic-Sergas).
