Dextrose (grape sugar) – 50 g – Energy source for liquid cultures in mushroom cultivation

Our dextrose (50 g) is a readily soluble, quickly available sugar source frequently used in the production of nutrient media for mushroom cultivation. It serves as a direct energy source for the mushroom mycelium and supports vigorous, uniform growth in liquid cultures (LC) or on solid media.

Dextrose (also known as glucose or grape sugar) is typically used in combination with water and other nutrients such as yeast extract or malt powder to create a nutrient-rich environment for mycelial growth.

Scope:

  • Preparation of liquid nutrient solutions (e.g. dextrose-yeast media or glucose agar)

  • Addition to Petri dish nutrient media for improved mycelial development

  • Perfect for mycelium propagation in hobby and professional cultivation

Features & Benefits:

  • Fine, crystalline powder – easy to dose and readily soluble.

  • Pure dextrose – no additives or separating agents

  • Promotes the rapid development and reproduction of mushroom mycelium

  • Long shelf life when stored in a dry, airtight container

Dosage recommendation:

For a liquid nutrient medium: approximately 10–20 g of dextrose per liter of water , depending on the intended use and mushroom strain. Dextrose is often combined with malt powder or yeast extract to achieve a balanced nutrient profile.
