Digipath, Inc. announced that it has received approval of their recent validation to test for Aspergillus using free DNA removal. This AOAC approved test allows Digipath Labs to determine if the Aspergillus found on cannabis and hemp products is alive. The integration of PCR (the polymerase chain reaction method used to amplify and detect specific sequences of DNA) into The State's consumption safety requirements for cannabis has caused a steep increase in test failure for the cultivation community.
The detection of disease-causing Aspergillus has become a devastating source of cannabis crop loss, significantly impacting growers' sellable cannabis products. The validation and state approval now allows Digipath to be on the cutting edge of microbiology analysis by determining whether the Aspergillus found on product is alive or dead.
Hypha Labs, Inc., formerly Digipath, Inc., has developed technology that cultivates the mycelium root structures of psilocybin mushrooms and other functional mushroom's mycelium into a natural product. This product has an exact, consistent potency containing all the natural compounds found in these fungi. Typically, it takes six-eight weeks to fully grow mushrooms, and using its technology, the production of the active ingredient is only seven-10 days. This natural product solves the dosing issue created by having to use whole mushrooms. The product is tasteless and gentler on the stomach and can be used sublingually for fast-acting results. The product allows the consumer to produce measurable active ingredients at home for mental and physical benefits. It provides Psilocybin Mushrooms, Button Mushrooms, Shiitake Mushrooms, Maitake Mushrooms, Reishi Mushrooms, Lion's Mane Mushrooms, Oyster Mushrooms, Oyster Mushrooms and Crimini Mushrooms.
