Description | Ferulic Acid, chemically known as 3-methoxy-4-hydroxycinnamic acid, is found in high levels in Chinese herbs such as ferula, angelica, chuanxiong, asclepias, and sour dates, and is one of the active ingredients in these herbs. Ferulic Acid has two isomers, cis and trans, both of which are light yellow solid. Our ferulic acid is extracted from rice bran. -Anti-radiation effect Ferulic Acid, a phenolic plant component with powerful antioxidant activity, is a great contributor to human health. Ferulic acid significantly elevates the glutathione and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate levels in irradiated cells, resulting in a protective effect on irradiated endothelial cells. -Antioxidant function Ferulic Acid can coincidentally destroy free radicals and restore the normal function of living organisms. Ferulic acid can cause the enzymes that produce free radicals in living organisms to be inhibited, and on top of that, the enzymes that scavenge free radicals can be increased. At the same time, ferulic acid can greatly enhance the activity of wake reductase and glutathione transsulfurase, and control the ratio of active tyrosinase. Studies have shown that ferulic acid has significant antioxidant effects and has good scavenging effects on ammonia peroxide, superoxide radicals, hydroxyl radicals, and peroxynitroxides. -Antibacterial and antiviral function Ferulic Acid causes a dramatic reduction in the production of inflammatory proteins. It has an inhibitory effect on HIV, thus the possibility exists for ferulic acid to become a future chemotherapeutic agent. The mechanism of inhibition of virus by ferulic acid is related to its ability to reduce the activity of xanthine oxidase, which is due to the fact that such enzymes generally lead to some inflammation The antibacterial function of ferulic acid is speculated to be mainly due to its strong inhibitory effect on N-ethylglyoxyltransferase in bacteria. |

FAQ

Q1: What's the difference between herb extract and powder?
A: The extract is a concentrated powder form of raw material. The herb extract's procedure flow is wash, extraction, concentration, purification, drying, grinding, sieving, package. The herb powder is just a powder form of the herb. The procedure flow is wash, drying, grinding, sieving, package.
Q2: What's the extract solvent used in the procedure?
A: The extract solvent is always depending on the active ingredient in the raw material, regulation and customers' requirement. The solvents mostly used for extraction are water and ethanol. Even the solvent other than water used in the procedure, the solvent residue in the extract product also can conform with ICH Q3CR5.
Q3: Is there any other ingredient used in the product?
A: It depends. For product which is hard to be dried, we need to add some maltodextrin into the extraction solution before drying. The maltodextrin we used is food-class carrier, from non-GMO corn. We can share customer with the ingredient composition table.
Q4: How to make sure the quality of the product?
A: Firstly, every batch finish product must be tested and qualified before delivery. We can send a specification sheet or CoA for confirmation. The HPLC chromatography graph also can be provided. Secondly, we can provide pre-ship sample to customer for quality confirmation.
Q5: Can you develop a new product for us?
A: Yes, we can. We have independent R&D dept, who is able to update the procedure parameters of our main products and develop the procedure of new product. For more information, please contact us directly.
Q6: Can you offer this in capsules or tablets as well?
A: Yes, we have related equipment for preparation of finish product, like tablet, capsule and granule. Kindly contact with us for details.
Q7: What is the MOQ?
A: For most of the products we already have in stock, the MOQ is 1kg. If the product is a new specification and need to be produced from raw material, the MOQ depends.
Q8: Is there any discount?
A: Yes, for larger quantity or better payment period, we can support with better price.
Q9: How about delivery time?
A: For most products, the product can be sent out from factory in 5days. If we don't have inventory, the product need to produced from raw material, the ordinary period is 20-25days.
