Gentiopicrin (CAS Number: 20831-76-9) represents one of the most therapeutically significant iridoid glycosides found in the root matrices of the Gentianaceae family, primarily derived from species such as Gentiana lutea, Gentiana scabra, and Gentiana macrophylla. Known for its intense bitter properties, Gentiopicrin is the key compound targeted by global pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and personal care manufacturers seeking verified anti-inflammatory, hepatoprotective, and digestive benefits.
Chemically designated as an iridoid glucoside, Gentiopicrin features a distinctive hemiacetal structure that endows it with high bio-reactivity. Extensive pharmacological literature isolates several specific molecular mechanics:
Commercial sourcing of Gentiopicrin requires precise quality standards depending on final use. The pharmaceutical industry predominantly requires highly purified extracts (≥98% Gentiopicrin via HPLC) for Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs). In contrast, the dietary supplement and veterinary industries demand standardized ratios (typically 10% to 50% Gentiopicrin) packaged as bulk raw powders.
| Grade Classification | Standard Purity Range (HPLC) | Primary Applications | Required Certifications |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pharmaceutical API Grade | 98% Min | Anti-hepatitis formulations, anti-inflammatory medications | GMP, DMF, CEP (under development) |
| Nutraceutical & Supplement Grade | 10% - 50% | Digestive bitters, liver detox capsules, dietary supplements | ISO, Kosher, Halal, HACCP |
| Cosmetic Raw Material Grade | 5% - 20% | Soothing creams, anti-redness lotions, topical antioxidants | SGS Toxicological Clearance, INCI Registration |
How Shaanxi ShineHerb Biotech implements state-of-the-art separation routes to guarantee maximum purity.
We source our raw Gentiana roots from dedicated agricultural cooperatives that strictly follow GAP (Good Agricultural Practices). This guarantees trace levels of pesticides and heavy metals right from cultivation.
To prevent thermal degradation of vulnerable iridoid glycosides, we employ multi-stage low-temperature ultrasonic-assisted extraction loops. This process preserves the chemical integrity of the native Gentiopicrin molecule.
By using highly selective adsorption resins, we separate target components from companion compounds like Swertiamarin and Amarogentin. This process ensures consistent batch yields matching USP and EP analytical standards.
