What Are The Benefits of Synthetic & Natural Paeonol?

Image
  Natural Paeonol (C 9 H 10 O 3 ), with CAS number 552-41-0, is an organic compound known for its analgesic, anti-inflammatory, antipyretic, and antiallergic properties. Natural sourcing: Paeonol is primarily extracted from moutan bark and Cynanchum paniculatum with an average content ranging from 0.5% to 2.0%. Common extraction methods include organic solvent extraction, distillation, macroporous resin extraction, and supercritical fluid extraction, among which steam distillation is most widely used. Synthetic sourcing: Paeonol is synthesized through chemical methods. Common synthetic approaches include Friedel-Crafts acylation, Fries rearrangement, and montmorillonite-catalyzed microwave synthesis. Paeonol Specification Items Specification Appearance White crystals powder Odor Characteristic Taste Characteristic Loss on Drying ≤1.0% Residue on Ignition ≤0.1% Melting point 49-51℃ Extract Solvent Water Heavy Metal ≤20ppm As ≤2ppm Residual Solvents Eur.Pharm.2000 Total Plate Count ≤1000

How to Find Natural Plant Extract Manufacturers

Image
  The growing health consciousness among people has shifted the focus from chemically synthesized products to those derived from natural plants. Plant extracts find applications in various fields such as health foods, special foods, and formulated granules, offering vast development prospects. So, what are the processing procedures and the situation of OEM factories for plant extracts? This article introduces “What is the OEM processing process for plant extracts? How to find plant extract OEM factories?” What are Plant Extracts? Plant extracts refer to complex organic compounds formed from plants through processes such as isolation, extraction, and drying. They are generally presented in powder and granular forms, although liquid or oil forms also exist. Their characteristic is to preserve the original components of plants without alteration. Plant extracts come in various types and find wide applications. These include functional plant extracts, traditional Chinese medicine extracts,

Development Trends of Chinese Plant Extract Manufacturers

Image
  Chinese Plant Extract Manufacturers can generally be divided into four tiers. The first tier includes A-share listed companies such as Layn   Natural Ingredients   and Chen Guang Biotechnology Group (CCGB), which are technologically advanced, have large-scale operations, and have high visibility. The second tier consists of some New Third Board-listed companies, such as Day Natural, and Red Star Pharmaceutical, which have a certain level of visibility and are continuously expanding in scale. The third tier includes companies like BGG WORLD and JOYWIN Natural Products, recognized by the industry, while the rest are relatively weaker players in the fourth tier. Plant Extract Manufacturers typically feature the following main characteristics and equipment: Extraction equipment: These devices are used to extract useful compounds from plant materials. Extraction processes can utilize various methods such as solvent extraction, supercritical fluid extraction, and distillation. Separation a

Instant Tea Unveiling the Art and Science Behind

Image
Instant tea is a type of solid tea beverage that quickly dissolves in water. Using finished tea, semi-finished tea, tea by-products, or fresh leaves as raw materials, it undergoes processes such as extraction, filtration, concentration, and drying to produce a new type of beverage in granular, powdered, or small flake form that easily dissolves in water without leaving tea residue. It boasts advantages such as convenience in preparation, absence of pesticide residues, and versatility in flavors, including pure teas like instant black tea, green tea, Tieguanyin, oolong tea, jasmine tea, pu-erh tea, as well as flavored teas like lemon black tea, milk tea, and various fruit-flavored instant teas. Introduction: Instant teas are categorized into cold-soluble and hot-soluble types based on their solubility. Internationally, the price of instant tea is about 10 times that of dry tea. Consumption tends to be higher in developed countries; for instance, in the United States, consumption account
