Will do! If i was trying to create a “full spectrum” version of this for candy, would it make sense to do alcohol wash first before hot water? Perhaps to break down material to release more water solubles? If my recipe used coconut oil, would a lipid wash yield anything perhaps? Of course need to test.
As for Reishi, Triterpenes and Beta-D-glucans are base constituents that I am after:
http://www.medicinabiomolecular.com.br/biblioteca/pdfs/Biomolecular/mb-0223.pdf
“Red Reishi is primarily composed of complex carbohydrates called water-soluble high
molecular weight Polysaccharides, triterpeniods, Organic Germanium, Adenosine, proteins, amino acids and Vitamins:
Polysaccharides: Beta-D-glucan polysaccharides(beta-glucan polysaccharides)
Sterols: Ergosterol
Fungal lysozyme
Proteinase
Triterpenes: Ganoderic acids
Other constiuents: Riboflavin, ascorbic acid, and amino
acids,Lipids,Alkaloids,Glucosides,Coumarins,Volatile oil.”
How would I go about finding polarity on these?
