What is Standard Extract?

Standardized extracts are processed extracts with a consistent and specific active ingredient content (usually indicated as a percentage). For example, standardized ginkgo extract contains defined amounts of flavonoids and terpene lactones. This process ensures authenticity, potency, and traceability, making standardized extracts more reliable than ordinary extracts.

In scientific research, their value lies in:

  • Controlled composition: Active compounds quantified by HPLC, GC, LC–MS.
  • High reproducibility: Consistent results across batches.
  • Broad applicability: Used in pharmacology, natural product chemistry, toxicology, and early drug development.

Quality Control and Testing

To ensure scientific reproducibility and batch consistency of our extracts, Alfa Chemistry performs a comprehensive quality control (QC) process on every batch. Common testing methods include:

  • Physical and chemical testing: appearance, solubility, particle size (mesh), loss on drying (LOD), and total ash.
  • Active ingredient quantification: HPLC/UHPLC, GC, LC–MS, UV, etc.
  • Identification: TLC, HPLC fingerprinting, NMR (upon request).
  • Residual solvents: GC (compliant with ICH Q3C guideline reference limits).
  • Heavy metals: ICP–MS/AAS (Pb, As, Cd, Hg, etc.).
  • Microbial limits: Total colony count, molds and yeasts, and pathogens (E. coli, Salmonella, S. aureus, etc.).
  • Pesticide residues: GC–MS/LC–MS multi-residue screening.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What common standardized specifications do you offer?

For example: Ginkgo biloba extract: 24% flavonoid glycosides + 6% terpene lactones; Ginseng extract: 10%–80% ginsenosides; Turmeric extract: 95% curcuminoids. We also offer custom specifications for specific concentrations.

How do you ensure the quality of your standardized extracts?

Alfa Chemistry performs comprehensive testing on each batch, including active ingredient quantification (HPLC/LC–MS), residual solvents, heavy metals, microbial limits, and stability testing. We also provide a Certificate of Analysis (COA) and MSDS.

What are the typical packaging sizes for Alfa Chemistry's standardized extracts?

We offer 10 g sample packs, 100 g–500 g laboratory packs, and 1–25 kg bulk packs in moisture-proof aluminum foil bags or cardboard drums for both research use and long-term storage.

How should these standardized extracts be stored?

They should generally be stored tightly sealed in a cool, dry place (2–25°C) away from direct sunlight. For some sensitive ingredients (such as anthocyanins and curcumin), it is recommended to store them at low temperatures and away from light to prolong their stability.

How can I purchase standard extracts from Alfa Chemistry?

You can submit an inquiry directly through our website or contact sales by email, providing the product name, specifications, and quantity. We will provide a quote, delivery schedule, and relevant documents within 24 hours.

What if my experiment requires more detailed test data?

Please specify this when placing your order. We can also provide additional fingerprint analysis, pesticide residue testing, or long-term stability reports to support in-depth research applications.
