Vanadium uptake by biomass of Coprinus comatus and their effect on hyperglycemic mice

The Vanadium uptake by Coprinus comatus and their co-effect on hyperglycemic mice were studied. By fermentation and AAS analysis, the optimal concentration of vanadium in medium was 0.4%, and the content of vanadium accumulated in the mycelia was 3,528.0 microg/g. At the concentration of 0.4%, the vanadium-associated toxicity was reduced, and its anti-diabetic effects were maintained.
