Product specification

Licorice Root Extract Powder Advantages

Enhanced Bioavailability Our extract is amphiphilic, which means it will naturally reduce the surface tension of formulations, increase absorption of co-administered chemicals up to 40% and optimise the therapeutic effects of your goods.

Tyrosinase Inhibition: Goodbye Kojic Acid! Our pure Glabridin versions are better skin lighteners than Kojic Acid, bringing incredible melanin reducing capability to your cosmetic compositions without the fear of cytotoxicity.

Cortisol-Sparing Mechanism: Our extract inhibits 11-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase to lengthen the half-life of cortisol, providing powerful anti-inflammatory effects that minimise your formulation costs while ensuring therapeutic effectiveness in topical applications.

Use of Liquorice Root Extract Powder

Cardiovascular Nutraceuticals: We have developed an extract as the main Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient in softgels and tablets to lower blood viscosity and prevent atherosclerotic plaque development especially in high risk geriatric populations with proven effectiveness.

Advanced Cosmetic Formulations: The lipophilic Glabridin ingredient is easily incorporated into serums, creams, and lotions, providing you with potent whitening and anti-inflammatory characteristics, that match customer desire for natural skin care products.

Functional Food Systems: Our extract is stable at pasteurisation temperatures, provides sweetness 50-100 times that of sucrose, enriches confectionery items and health drinks, and adds functional health advantages to your product line.

Manufacturing Process

Step 1- Raw Material Selection: Our agronomists visually evaluate and do preliminary moisture testing on premium Radix Glycyrrhizae to ensure botanical identity and potency, harvested from designated planting bases to provide authenticated raw material for processing.

Step 2 - Extraction Optimisation ：The cleaned roots are then subjected to a controlled solvent extraction with food grade ethanol at calibrated temperatures to maximise the yield of Glycyrrhizic Acid and preserve the bioactive flavanoids resulting in a concentrated liquid extract with standardised potency.

Step 3 – Purification & Concentration: The liquid extract is passed via membrane filtration and chromatographic separation to eliminate contaminants and concentrate the desired chemicals to specified assay levels, validated by HPLC analysis.

Step 4 – Spray Drying & Quality Control： In our 100,000-level purification workshop, the extract is concentrated and spray dried under controlled settings to get a fine powder that fulfils the particle size standards. The powder is then subjected to extensive quality control checks before packing.

Third Party Test Report

Pesticide Residue Analysis: Our goods are tested by a comprehensive multi-residue screening utilising GC-MS/LC-MS technology, completely compliant with USP <561> and EU 396/2005 requirements to assure agricultural chemical safety for your end customers.

Heavy Metal Testing: Our extract is tested to fulfil international safety standards with Lead < 3.0 mg/kg, Arsenic < 1.0 mg/kg, Cadmium < 1.0 mg/kg, and Mercury < 0.1 mg/kg via ICP-MS testing, offering piece of mind for regulated markets.

Botanical Authentication : To ensure that you get the real Radix Glycyrrhizae extract in every batch, we use HPTLC fingerprinting with certified reference standards to avoid economic adulteration.
