Flowers are more than just ornamental—they are rich sources of natural polysaccharides with diverse therapeutic and functional benefits. Extracted from petals, buds, inflorescences, pollen, and floral stigmas, floral polysaccharides have attracted growing scientific interest for their anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, immunomodulatory, neuroprotective, and skin-rejuvenating properties.
Unlike polysaccharides from roots or stems, flower-derived polysaccharides often exhibit unique glycan structures and aroma-associated bioactivities, making them highly valuable in the development of pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, cosmetics, and botanical therapies.
Alfa Chemistry offers a curated portfolio of high-purity floral polysaccharides, sourced from time-honored medicinal flowers and validated by contemporary research. Whether for academic studies or commercial formulation, our floral extracts combine quality, traceability, and functional relevance.
Featured Floral Polysaccharides of Interest
🔸 Chrysanthemum Polysaccharide (Chrysanthemum morifolium)
Known for its cooling and detoxifying qualities, chrysanthemum polysaccharides are rich in flavonoid-conjugated sugars with strong antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. Research highlights their potential in supporting liver health, protecting vision, and promoting vascular function.
🔸 Honeysuckle Polysaccharide (Lonicera japonica)
A traditional herbal mainstay, honeysuckle flower bud polysaccharides exhibit antiviral, antibacterial, and immune-enhancing effects. They help regulate cytokine activity and reduce pathogen adhesion—ideal for respiratory health, fever relief, and infection prevention.
🔸 Safflower Polysaccharide (Carthamus tinctorius)

🔸 Datura Flos Polysaccharide (Datura metel)
Sourced from the striking flowers of Datura metel, this polysaccharide shows promise in supporting neurological balance by modulating neurotransmission, mitigating oxidative stress, and attenuating inflammatory responses—especially under investigation for CNS and pain-relief applications.
🔸 Rosa Rugosa Polysaccharide (Rosa rugosa)
With strong skin-conditioning and collagen-stimulating properties, rose polysaccharides help reduce transepidermal water loss, enhance elasticity, and protect against oxidative aging. Popular in high-performance skincare and anti-wrinkle formulations.
🔸 Daphne Genkwa Polysaccharide (Daphne genkwa)
This detoxifying flower delivers polysaccharides with notable immunostimulatory and anti-tumor effects. Research suggests roles in apoptosis induction and immune checkpoint modulation, making it a compelling candidate in cancer and inflammation-related studies.
🔸 Edgeworthia Chrysantha Polysaccharide (Edgeworthia chrysantha)
Extracted from oriental paperbush flower buds, this polysaccharide offers antioxidant and hydration-supporting effects. It has shown early potential in collagen stabilization and skin photoaging prevention—ideal for cosmetic innovations.
🔸 Buddlejae Flos Polysaccharide (Buddleja officinalis)
Traditionally valued for eye and liver health, Buddleja polysaccharides exhibit fatigue-reducing, antioxidant, and anti-apoptotic properties. Applications include visual support, hepatic detox, and anti-stress botanical formulations.
