Product Description
Gentiopicroside (CAS 20831-76-7) is a high-value natural iridoid glycoside monomer compound isolated and purified from the root and rhizome of Gentiana scabra Bge., a traditional medicinal herb. With a strict 98% HPLC purity standard, Gentiopicroside retains stable and efficient natural biological activity, featuring outstanding liver protection, anti-inflammation, antioxidation, digestive regulation and immune balancing effects. It is a core functional raw material widely applied in liver-protecting health supplements, digestive conditioning functional foods, pharmaceutical intermediate research and biological pharmacological experiments.
Different from ordinary crude gentiana root extract containing multiple glycosides, plant fibers and miscellaneous impurities, our Gentiopicroside adopts low-temperature circulating solvent extraction and multi-stage macroporous resin purification technology, combined with repeated recrystallization refinement. The advanced production process thoroughly removes residual plant impurities, solvent residues and invalid hybrid components, ensuring single and stable active monomer composition. All production procedures comply with GMP purification standards, with full-index quality detection covering heavy metals, microorganisms and residual solvents, solving the problems of unstable efficacy, low purity and inaccurate dosage of crude extracts, fully meeting high-end formula R&D and industrial mass production standards.
Gentiopicroside is globally renowned for its superior liver-protective activity. It can effectively protect hepatocytes, reduce liver oxidative damage and inflammatory injury, promote liver metabolic detoxification, and assist in repairing damaged liver tissues. It helps maintain normal liver function, relieve sub-health problems caused by long-term fatigue, alcohol intake and metabolic burden, and delivers gentle and efficient liver conditioning effects.
As a natural mild anti-inflammatory and antioxidant ingredient, Gentiopicroside can significantly inhibit the secretion of pro-inflammatory factors, reduce chronic mild inflammation in the body, and scavenge excess free radicals. It effectively relieves cellular oxidative stress, delays organ aging, improves internal microcirculation, and enhances the body’s natural antioxidant defense capacity.
Gentiopicroside has unique digestive system regulation functions. It can promote the secretion of digestive juices, improve gastrointestinal motility, enhance digestive absorption capacity, and relieve gastrointestinal discomfort such as poor appetite and indigestion. It gently regulates gastrointestinal microecological balance, improving sub-health digestive disorders caused by irregular diet and high-pressure lifestyle.
In immune regulation, high-purity Gentiopicroside can activate immune cell activity, enhance systemic immune defense function, improve low immunity and physical weakness, and maintain long-term immune system balance. Its mild natural conditioning properties make it suitable for long-term daily health care for all age groups.
In pharmaceutical and scientific research fields, Gentiopicroside serves as a key precursor compound for the development of new liver-protective, anti-inflammatory and gastrointestinal regulatory drugs. Its stable molecular structure and accurate high purity provide reliable raw material support for biomedical pharmacological research and new drug formula innovation.
Our premium Gentiopicroside product is uniform white to off-white crystalline fine powder with delicate texture, loose and non-caking, odorless and free of abnormal impurities. Each batch is strictly tested by professional HPLC equipment to guarantee 98% standard purity and consistent batch quality. It features stable chemical properties and excellent formula compatibility, suitable for health care capsules, tablets, solid beverages and laboratory precision experimental formulas.
