Plant Extracts
➢ Product Name: Garlic Extract
➢ Latin Name: Allium sativum L.
➢ Plant Part Used: Dried bulbs of Amaryllidaceae Allium sativum
Manufactured from dried garlic bulbs via sorting-impurity removal, enzymatic activation, ethanol-water composite extraction, macroporous resin enrichment-purification, vacuum concentration and aseptic spray-drying. The product retains natural active components of garlic, mainly allicin, alliin, alliinase and sulfur-containing volatile substances, without artificial monomer blending or extra exogenous auxiliary materials. It has physiological activities of anti-oxidation and anti-inflammation, and is a classic medicine-food homologous botanical raw material. Compared with ordinary garlic powder, enriched extract delivers higher content of active ingredients with multi-component synergistic effects, suitable for development of functional foods and dietary supplements for immune support and anti-oxidation purposes.
➢ Raw Material Source: 100% extracted from garlic bulbs, free of starch, dextrin and other exogenous additives.
➢ Processing Grade: Low-temperature first-grade refined extract. Temperature is strictly controlled to prevent thermal decomposition of allicin; no artificial blending. Impurities, solvent residues, heavy metals and pesticide residues are strictly controlled to meet safety limits for food-grade raw materials.
➢ Core Indicators: Allicin (HPLC) 1%-5%, alliin 2%-10%. Multiple customized grades are available, as well as de-odorized modified grades.
➢ Physical and Chemical Properties: Off-white to light yellow-brown fine powder. Allicin is sensitive to heat, pH value and oxygen. Encapsulation modification is available to improve storage stability and water-dispersibility for multiple dosage-form development.
➢ Applicable Dosage Forms: Tablets, capsules, soft capsules, solid beverages, pressed candies, compound powders and others.
➢ Storage Properties: Sealed, light-proof and moisture-proof. Store in cool and dry place, isolate from air to secure allicin activity.
➢ Authentic Raw Material, High-purity & High-activity:
Select mature garlic bulbs with strictly controlled ripeness and enzymatic hydrolysis process. Sufficient intrinsic content of alliin and allicin guarantees raw-material activity foundation from the source.
➢ Low-temperature Activity Lock, Natural Components:
Adopt mild enzymatic activation and low-temperature extraction processes to maximally protect heat-sensitive sulfur-containing active substances and preserve natural component ratio of bulbs. Synergistic performance of natural compound system outperforms pure allicin monomer.
➢ Zero-adulteration Purity, Safe & Compliant:
Free of blending, fillers, pigments, flavors, preservatives and harmful auxiliaries. Residues and microorganisms are strictly controlled complying with domestic medicine-food homologous regulations, USP and EP quality standards.
➢ Strong Compatibility, Full-scenario Adaptation:
Mainly lipid-soluble; encapsulated modified grades show excellent water-dispersibility. Can be used alone or compounded with other botanical extracts. De-odorized grades fit formulas requiring low pungent odor.
➢ Standardized Production, Stable Batch Quality:
Produced in 100,000-class GMP workshop. Tested by HPLC and UV dual-methods. Key indicators of allicin and alliin are strictly controlled for uniform batch quality and full traceability.
Uniform fine powder from off-white to light yellow-brown with natural herbal color, loose, delicate and good fluidity. Conventional products have characteristic pungent garlic odor, while de-odorized modified products show significantly reduced peculiar smell, free of mildewed, rancid or scorched peculiar odor. Conventional grades have limited water dispersibility. Encapsulated modified products achieve favorable water-dispersibility and mask pungent odor, with better overall quality than ordinary garlic crude powder.
Multi-component synergistic system centered on allicin generated by enzymatic hydrolysis of alliin, supplemented by various organic sulfur-containing compounds. Allicin features poor thermal stability and tends to decompose and deactivate under high temperature, oxygen exposure, acid-alkali conditions. Micro-capsule encapsulation greatly improves heat-oxidation resistance and remedies the defects of easy decomposition and strong peculiar smell of ordinary garlic extract.
Good formulation compatibility. Conventional lipid-soluble grades are mainly applied in capsules and soft capsules; encapsulated water-dispersible grades fit solid beverages and instant foods; de-odorized versions are preferred for odor-sensitive formulas. Long-time high-temperature and strong acid-alkali processes shall be avoided during processing. Compatible with most solid-dosage industrial processes to satisfy mass-production and high-end customized development.
Food-grade high-barrier light-proof packaging isolates oxygen, moisture and light to slow down oxidative decomposition and moisture caking of allicin. Store at cool room temperature without freezing. Use up promptly after opening. Flexible packaging specifications support lab-scale R&D, pilot test and large-scale production.
Garlic sulfur-containing active complex, mainly alliin and allicin, together with diallyl disulfide, diallyl trisulfide and other sulfur-containing organic components. Synergy of multiple components forms the material basis for anti-oxidation, anti-inflammatory repair and immune regulation.
Sulfur-containing active components directly scavenge reactive-oxygen free radicals and inhibit lipid peroxidation. They up-regulate activities of endogenous antioxidant enzymes including SOD and glutathione to build anti-oxidant defense barriers and alleviate cell damage induced by oxidative stress.
Modulate NF-κB signaling pathway, down-regulate release of pro-inflammatory factors including TNF-α and IL-6, inhibit chronic low-grade inflammatory responses in vivo and mitigate inflammatory damage triggered by oxidative stress.
Garlic-derived sulfur-containing active substances regulate proliferation and response level of immune cells and maintain normal body immune status, representing the characteristic target of this raw material.
Synergistic effects of active sulfur-containing components participate in in-vivo lipid metabolism modulation and assist in maintaining blood lipid homeostasis.
Sulfur-containing active components act on cell membranes, mitigate free-radical attack against membrane lipids, maintain cell-membrane structural integrity and reduce cell damage induced by external oxidative stimuli.
