With the improvement of people's living standards, plant extracts are widely used in medicine, health products, cosmetics, food, feed, drug, pesticide, and other industries, which not only have essential efficacy value, but also have economic value due to the deep processing products. Common plant extract technologies include supercritical fluid extraction, ion exchange chromatography, low-pressure column chromatography, high-performance liquid chromatography, thin-layer chromatography, high-speed retrograde stratospheric chromatography, recrystallization, etc. Since each enterprise may have different technologies for processing, separating, extracting, and refining plant extracts, and the plant sources for manufacturing extracts are also objective, there are a lot of relevant standards and regulations for testing plant extracts. Plant extract testing has become a common tool in product development, production, sales, and purchasing. Lifeasible provides professional plant extract testing services for global customers, especially for plant extracts used in functional foods, food additives, and cosmetics of plant origin.
Plant extracts are mixtures of specific chemical compounds and active ingredients extracted from plants. Plant extracts can be obtained by different extraction methods, such as solvent extraction, distillation extraction, supercritical fluid extraction, etc. Lifeasible carries out a comprehensive range of plant extract testing services to ensure that your botanical products comply with national, industry, local, or group standards. Our laboratory has a mature and complete system of strict and high-standard quality control.
