Struggling with Cloudiness and Phase Separation in Liquid Formulations?

Lipophilic by nature, standard USP/EP Ginkgo Biloba extracts frequently present severe dissolution challenges in liquid formulations-leading to unwanted cloudiness, phase separation, and bottom sedimentation during shelf life. Moreover, raw ginkgolic acids can cause gastrointestinal discomfort and impart an intensely sharp astringency that is difficult to mask.

To resolve these processing bottlenecks, we developed this water-soluble grade through targeted molecular inclusion and micro-dispersion technology. It delivers complete, cold-water clarity in seconds while fully retaining the 24% Flavone Glycosides and 6% Terpene Lactones active profile, allowing you to formulate stable functional drinks without altering tactile mouthfeel or taste integrity.

Q1: How do you achieve water solubility without compromising active content?

A: We utilize physical particle-surface modification and targeted molecular inclusion technology without adding excess maltodextrin carriers. This preserves the canonical 24% Flavone Glycosides and 6% Terpene Lactones active profile while ensuring complete cold-water dispersibility.

Q2: Can you comply with European & US limits for Ginkgolic Acids (< 1.0 ppm)?

A: Yes. While our standard export grade is controlled at < 5.0 ppm, we offer premium export lots strictly tested at < 1.0 ppm via HPLC, fully compliant with European Pharmacopoeia (EP) monographs.

Q3: Does the solution remain clear after prolonged standing in liquid beverages?

A: Yes. Thanks to micro-dispersion processing, the dissolved extract exhibits excellent kinetic stability, preventing precipitation, layer separation, or cloudiness over the product's shelf life in pH 3.5–7.0 liquid formulations.

Q4: What documentation is provided with sample kits for QC evaluation?

A: We supply 50 g–100 g sample evaluation kits accompanied by batch-specific Certificates of Analysis (COA), HPLC chromatograms, dissolution test reports, Safety Data Sheets (MSDS), and allergen statements.

Q5: What is your Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) and lead time?

A: Our standard MOQ is 1 kg for trial testing, and 25 kg for commercial bulk orders. Regular orders ship within 3–5 business days directly from our warehouse stock.

Q6: How is the taste masked compared to standard ginkgo biloba extracts?

A: By removing bitter lipophilic resins and reducing ginkgolic acids below 5 ppm, the sharp astringency is significantly minimized, making it vastly easier to flavor-mask in RTD beverages and supplements.
