Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What's the difference between Allicin 1% and Allicin-Potential 10000 ppm?
Allicin 1% is measured allicin content. Allicin-Potential 10000 ppm reflects the potential to generate allicin from alliin + allinase upon activation. Both are valid standardization markers; the choice depends on formulation goals.
Q2: What is Allicin?
Allicin is a thiosulfinate compound formed when garlic is crushed (alliin + allinase reaction). It is considered the main bioactive marker for garlic's cardiovascular and immune support positioning.
Q3: Can Garlic Extract be combined with other ingredients?
Garlic Extract is commonly combined with CoQ10, Vitamin K2, and Hawthorn Extract in cardiovascular formulations. We recommend consulting with your formulation team.
Q4: What's the regulatory status in the EU?
Garlic Extract is permitted as a food supplement ingredient in the EU per EFSA and EMA/HMPC monograph. Specific regulatory status depends on intended application and labeling.
Q5: How is Allicin content measured?
Allicin content is quantified via HPLC per USP / industry-standard methods or by enzymatic alliin-allinase conversion potential.
Q6: What's the typical MOQ?
Standard MOQ is 25 kg. Smaller quantities (5-10 kg) are available for evaluation.
Q7: Do you offer custom specifications?
Yes. Custom specifications (e.g., specific Allicin content, enteric coating, packaging) can be discussed with our coordination team.
Q8: What documentation is available?
Standard documentation includes COA, MSDS, allergen statement, Non-GMO statement. Additional documentation available upon request from production partners.
