Manufacturing base

What Makes Our Horny Goat Weed Extract Different?

While raw herbal powders have variable flavonoid content, our product has undergone extensive chromatographic processing to ensure accurate Icariin concentrations. This standardization addresses key formulation difficulties you experience – limited bioavailability of crude botanicals, seasonal harvest variances, and dosage inconsistencies.

In our extract, we use two solvents for extraction (ethanol and water) to obtain the whole range of bioactive chemicals. It is a fine powder with 95% passing through 80 mesh. It provides homogeneous blending in capsule matrices and tablet compression.

Color varies from brownish yellow (lower concentrations) to light lemon-yellow (98% purity). This color change is indicative of the concentration level and provides you with visual quality indicators during incoming examination.

Key Benefits & Applications for Your Formulations

Men's Vitality & Performance Support

Your customers want natural alternatives to synthetic options. Icariin is a natural phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitor, promoting good circulation and physiological function. This makes it perfect for formulations of men's health supplements emphasizing vigor and performance.

Defense of Energy & Fatigue

Active living requires ongoing energy. Our extract is ideal for sports nutrition products, pre-workout formulae and energy boosting supplements, helping to minimize fatigue and enhance physical endurance.

Bone Health & Density Support

Icariins have phytoestrogenic characteristics that stimulate osteoblast growth. This dual process promotes the preservation of bone metabolism and density, enabling your products to tap into the burgeoning bone health market.

Cardiovascular & Circulatory Support

Your complete healthiness is based on healthy blood flow. Horny Goat Weed Extract promotes vascular function and cardiovascular health by modulating nitric oxide for vasodilation without synthetic chemicals.

Balancing Hormones & Healthy Aging

This extract supports hormonal balance and is good for your formulations around vitality and healthy aging. The multi-target method gives broader benefits than synthetic alternatives with a single pathway.

FAQ

Q: What is the difference between Icariin and Total Icariins?

A: The most important bioactive flavonoid molecule identified as a single marker is icariin. Total Icariins include Icariin and related substances such as Epimedin A, B and C. For most purposes Icariin percentage is the normal specification, but we may provide total Icariins analysis when required for your formulation.

Q: What concentration should I use for my product?

A: This is contingent upon your intended dose and the format of the formulation. The 10% grade is good for combo formulae and cost-sensitive products. 20% grade is a good mix of potency and solubility. The 98% grade is used for maximal concentration of high strength capsules but calls for careful formulation due to poor water solubility.

Q: What is the effect of solubility on my formulation?

A: Lower concentration grades (10-20%) are semi-water soluble and ideal for powder blends and regular encapsulation. 98% Icariin is high purity and lipophilic, requiring ethanol, DMSO or oil-based carriers. This causes problems in water-based drinks, but is great in oil-filled soft gels and alcohol tinctures.

Q: What's your MOQ?

A: We may offer flexible MOQ according to your individual demands. Standard grades will often start at 25kg although we are happy to supply lower quantities for first experiments or new product development. For special MOQ arrangements, contact our staff.

Q: Do you have samples for testing?

A: Yes, we offer free samples with professional technical guidance. Sample requests are handled immediately and we may ship via DHL, FedEx or UPS with same day pickup availability.

Q: What documentation do you supply?

A: Each shipment is accompanied by a Certificate of Analysis (COA), specification sheet, and certification documents as applicable (Kosher, Halal, organic). We also give allergen statements, BSE/TSE declarations, GMO-free statements and other documentation you may need for market registration.

Q: How stable is the extract in production?

A: Our product has good thermal stability at temperatures below 80°C, which means it may be used in tablet compression, capsule filling and most typical manufacturing procedures without degradation of active ingredients.
