Why Choose Shaanxi Rebecca Biotechnology

Your formulation deserves ingredients you can count on. Here's what sets us apart:

Advanced Extraction Technology: We use a low temperature drying process (40-45°C) and ultrafine grinding to protect heat-sensitive chemicals.Our extraction method uses 50% ethanol to collect all the beneficial components and keep their natural biological activity.

Quality-First Approach: Each batch is tested by an independent third party for purity, strength, heavy metals, and pesticide levels.We follow EU EC396, EU 2023/915 standards, and international rules for solvent residues.

Certifications Complete: We have acquired ISO9001, ISO22000, FSSC22000, HACCP, HALAL, KOSHER, cGMP and Non-GMO certifications to ensure your supply chain satisfies worldwide regulatory requirements.

Customisation Flexibility :We are capable of providing OEM/ODM service with several dosage forms such powders, tablets, hard capsules, soft capsules and liquid-ready formulations to your precise requirements.

Traceability Assurance: We keep records of everything from the farm to the final product. We provide full COAs, MSDS and HPLC chromatograms with each order.

Why Choose Shaanxi Rebecca Biotechnology

Source & Traceability

Quality starts at the source. We exclusively partner with certified bitter melon farms that meet strict cultivation standards. Our raw materials grow in mineral-rich soils with pH levels between 6.0-7.5, ensuring optimal nutrient accumulation.

Grade Classifications:

· 4:1 Water Extract: Entry-level crude powder for blended formulations

· 10:1 Alcohol Extract: Mainstream choice for capsules and tablets with full bioactivity

· 5% Standardized Extract: Premium grade with precise charantin content for high-potency products

· Cyclodextrin Water-Soluble: Instant-dissolving powder for clear beverage applications

All incoming materials undergo HPTLC authentication and comprehensive contamination screening. Organic bitter melon is processed on dedicated lines to prevent cross-contamination.

Source & Traceability

Solubility & Stability Characteristics

Understanding how your ingredient behaves is crucial for formulation success:

Solubility Profile:

· Hot water: Readily soluble

· Ethanol and propylene glycol: Highly soluble

· Cold water: Turbid (standard powder); clear (cyclodextrin version)

· Vegetable oils: Requires emulsifiers

Stability Guidelines:

· Temperature: Keep processing below 60°C; exposure above 80°C degrades active compounds

· pH Range: Stable between 4.5-7.2; avoid strong acids and bases

· Light Sensitivity: Store sealed and light-protected; aqueous solutions oxidize when exposed

· Moisture: High-purity grades show minimal hygroscopicity when properly packaged

Solubility & Stability Characteristics

Production Process

Our Bitter Melon Extract Powder manufacturing follows strict pharmaceutical-grade protocols:

Raw Material Preparation: Fresh, ripe bitter melons are manually selected to eliminate damaged fruit. Post washing, the materials are dried at low temperature (40-45°C) to keep the bioactive integrity. The dried fruit is ground to 20-30 mesh for best extraction effectiveness.

Dual Extraction Systems We have separate lines for water extraction (4:1 powder) and ethanol extraction (10:1 and standardised grades). Maximum charantin recovery and solvent recycling are achieved by carrying out alcohol extraction in closed-loop reflux at 45-55°C using 50% food-grade ethanol.

Purification steps: High purity 5% standardised powder is purified by macroporous resin chromatography. The D101 resin column was used to remove polysaccharides and pigments with clean water, then gradient ethanol elution was used to concentrate the active fractions.

Controlled drying: Typical powders are spray dried at intake temperatures in the range of 145-155°C and output temperatures below 72°C to make instant powders. Premium extracts are dried in vacuum at 42-48°C to reduce the loss of action.

Final Processing: Products are vibratory-sieved to specification, 3D-blended for homogeneity and packed in light-proof vacuum aluminium bags inside moisture-resistant drums.

Production Process

Applications & Benefits

Blood Sugar promote: Charantin and polypeptide-P substances improve insulin sensitivity and promote healthy glucose metabolism – perfect for diabetic-friendly supplements.

Weight Management Formulas: The extract enhances metabolic function and may help to lessen cravings by stabilising blood sugar levels.

Functional Beverages: Water soluble types clear in RTD teas & meal replacement shakes for glycaemic control.

Immunological Boosting: It contains antioxidants like vitamin C that enhance the body's immunological system and help fend off dangerous free radicals.

Digestive Wellness: It has long been utilised to support the body's increased production of digestive juices and the preservation of a balanced population of beneficial bacteria in the gut.

Cosmeceutical Applications: It is often used in products intended to cure acne and soothe irritated skin because to its anti-inflammatory and antibacterial qualities.

Applications & Benefits

FAQ

Q: Can I add this extract directly to oil-based softgels?

A:Standard powders are water-soluble and need emulsifiers for oil systems. Consider cyclodextrin-encapsulated versions for easier integration.

Q: What's the maximum processing temperature?

A:Keep formulation temperatures at or below 60°C. Prolonged exposure above 80°C degrades charantin and causes powder discoloration.

Q: Do you test for pesticide residues?

A:Yes, every incoming raw material batch undergoes comprehensive pesticide and heavy metal screening. Non-compliant batches are rejected immediately.

Q: Will the powder clump during ocean shipping?

A:Our vacuum-sealed aluminum foil packaging prevents moisture absorption and clumping. Unopened products maintain stability for 24 months.

Q: What's the difference between specifications?

A:10:1 alcohol extract offers full bioactivity for mainstream supplements, while 5% standardized provides precise charantin levels for premium formulations requiring exact dosing.
