Genipin is extracted from the fruits of Gardenia jasminoides Ellis. Genipin is an excellent natural biological cross-linking agent that can be cross-linked with protein, collagen, gelatin and chitosan to make biomaterials. Genipin can also be used as a fingerprint collection reagent and a cross-linking agent for preparing immobilized enzymes.

Genipin is an active compound extracted from the mature fruits of Gardenia jasminoides Ellis. It serves as an exceptional natural, biological cross-linking agent.
Genipin is highly effective at cross-linking with proteins, collagen, gelatin, and chitosan. This makes it an ideal raw material for creating advanced biomaterials, preparing immobilized enzymes, and as a fingerprint collection reagent.
In dietary supplements, it is formulated into liver-protection capsules, herbal anti-inflammatory complex tablets, and soothing supplements. In the food industry, it serves as a natural food-grade yellow colorant for snacks, baked goods, and drinks.
For smaller quantities (1kg), the product is secured in double plastic bags and housed in an aluminum foil bag inside a protective box. For larger quantities (10kg or 25kg+), we pack using drums or cartons lined with dual-layer plastic bags.
Depending on weight, we support EMS, DHL, UPS, FedEx, Air, and Sea shipping. Express deliveries (1-25kg) typically arrive door-to-door in 3-7 days, while larger bulk orders via Sea take roughly 10-35 days to reach their destination port.
