[Chemical study of nucleosides on Cordyceps militaris].
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the nucleosides of Cordyceps militaris.


METHODS
The primary extract technique of nucleosides from Cordyceps militaris was founded, the nucleosides were isolated by chromatography.


RESULTS
Four compounds were isolated from the mycelium of Cordyceps militaris. They were identified as uridine (1), adenosine (2), guanosine (3) and p-tyrosine (4), respectively.


CONCLUSIONS
Compounds 1, 2 and 3 are the main nucleosides in Cordyceps militaris.
