OPTIMIZATION OF PROTEIN EXTRACTION AND TWO-DIMENSIONAL GEL ELECTROPHORESIS PROFILES FOR THE IDENTIFICATION OF CORDYCEPS SINENSIS AND OTHER SIMILAR SPECIES.

Optimization of protein extraction and two-dimensional gel electrophoresis profiles for the identification of Cordyceps sinensis and other similar species.

Given that Chinese materia medica (CMM) is expensive and rare, people take tremendous risk to adulterate and falsify Cordyceps sinensis with copyright species with similar morphological features.It is thus essential to develop new methods to identify the authenticity of Cordyceps sinensis.It is hypothesized in this study that Cordyceps sinensis pos
