Essential notes of 'Black Pearl'
This fungus stands out for its quantity and variety of polysaccharides, modulating substances of interest, although it also has betulin acid. Like the Lion's Mane, Traditionally, northern Europe has been used in infusions from concentrated powder and water (Zavka). In the 60s, Finnish, American and Russian scientists studied their extracts in different processes.
DOCUMENTATED USES OF CHAGA
In the West, from these studies and the publication in 1968 of one of the best known works of the Russian Nobel Prize Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, El Chaga became a fungus of great popularity. Previous studies and historical references of this work made it known, among other terms such as the ‘Black Pearl’or the ‘Forest Diamond’. At present, modern science has found with empirical scientific evidence an important presence of Polysaccharides, betulin inotodiol and Botulinic acid. The presence of these substances has favored their controlled cultivation with the purpose of extracting them and using them in various applications.
Indeed, the extract It is the concentrated form in which we can find active chaga biomolecules. It can be standardized powdered, Mico-Chaga either Mico-Five, but we can also find it in liquid format in Children's formulas as Dr. Immune Five. Today, we can already obtain extracts using sustainable technologies, without denaturing their compounds. The result of this process is a greater concentration of substances of interest And, therefore, a better use. In addition, if premium quality occurs, unlike the standard, the presence of the same quantity and quality of polysaccharides, Terpenes, etc.

Chaga cultivation
Chaga cultivation is not as simple as that of other species as Lion's Mane. Today the collection in the Scandinavian and Siberian forests, mostly, it is the main source of obtaining this fungus. However, they have developed Productive mycelium techniques in successful bioreactor. Ours R&D research with Inonotus obliquus They have allowed us to corroborate their usefulness. Given these qualities and the results observed, the chaga has incorporated into the Micological Bank of Hifas (HMB) Recently, after the selection of the most appropriate and the optimization of its organic production and extraction process, etc.

Habitat and distribution
Habitat and distribution
In the north and east of Europe, especially in Siberia, there are huge birch masses. Therefore, it is not surprising to find wild chaga growing in the forests of these latitudes.
Mycological notes
Mycological notes
It is a fungus that lives with its guest, a weakened bold, next to the one that grows for a long period of time. This fungus It may take between 20 and 30 years to form a black tuber to the size of a child's head. Brown color very characteristic that is due to its High melanin production, the same pigment that makes our skin tan with the sun.

The culture in bioreactors
Maximum quality, purity and power in our production systems
One of the Hifas Research Lines Da Terra more powerful focuses on the continuous improvement of Cultivation of different species in bioreactors (Reishi, Mamena de León, Shiitake and Maitake) using certified ecological substrates, as well as in the standardization of the quality of origin ingredients to guarantee the Excellence in the final product That develops with each fungus.
Hifas Quality System
Through a standard of its own quality, We identify biomolecules and active ingredients, We properly select the strains of fungi that contain them, we use own and specific analytical systems and we apply protocols for Analysis in different production phases. Thanks to this rigorous system we offer natural products, supplements and nutraceutics, with KNAGE QUALITY SYSTEM WARRANTY, making the difference with respect to other products in terms of purity and premium quality.
