FAQ

Q: Which parts of Echinacea are mainly used as raw materials?

A: Depending on the product positioning, either the roots or aerial parts of Echinacea can be used as raw materials. Different plant parts have different compound compositions.

Q: Why is Chicoric Acid an important testing indicator for the product?

A: Chicoric Acid is one of the representative phenolic acid compounds found in Echinacea and is commonly used to evaluate the quality of certain extract products.

Q: What is the difference between extract and powder?

A: Plant powder is made by directly grinding the material, while our extract undergoes concentration processing, resulting in higher concentration of botanical active compounds and making it more suitable for functional product development.

Q: Why does the color vary between batches?

A: As a natural botanical, color is influenced by harvest season and chlorophyll content of raw plant material. However, we ensure HPLC content of active ingredients remains constant regardless of slight visual variances.

Q: How stable is Chicoric Acid during storage?

A: Chicoric Acid is sensitive to oxidation and moisture. We recommend storing the extract in airtight containers in cool, dry conditions. Under these parameters, stability is guaranteed for 24 months with less than 5% degradation.
