Evaluation of an Epitypified Ophiocordyceps formosana (Cordyceps s.l.) for Its Pharmacological Potential

Figure 3

HPLC profiles and analyses of extracts from various Cordyceps species. (a) The HPLC retention times are shown for D-mannitol (designated as “D”), adenosine (designated as “A”), and cordycepin (designated as “C”) (A). The HPLC profiles extracted from the O. formosana mycelia (B, OF_MY), the O. sinensis mycelis (C, OS_MY) and fruiting bodies (D, OS_FB), and the C. militaris mycelia (E, CM_MY) and fruiting bodies (F, CM_FB). (b) The quantitative results for the indicated compounds were calculated according to the area under the peak that corresponded to the standard calibration; r² > 0.999.
