Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: What's the difference between Quercetin Dihydrate and Anhydrous?

Quercetin Dihydrate contains ~9-12% water (two water molecules per quercetin). Anhydrous Quercetin contains no water (~3-4% higher Quercetin content per gram). Both are pharmacopoeia-accepted.

Q2: What is Quercetin?

Quercetin is a flavonoid found in many fruits, vegetables, and grains. It is considered one of the most abundant dietary antioxidants and is associated with anti-inflammatory and immune support positioning.

Q3: Can Quercetin be combined with other ingredients?

Quercetin is commonly combined with Vitamin C (for enhanced absorption), Bromelain, and Zinc in immune support formulations. We recommend consulting with your formulation team.

Q4: What's the regulatory status in the EU?

Quercetin is permitted as a food supplement ingredient in the EU under Novel Food Regulation 2015/2283 (per EC 2017/2470). Specific regulatory status depends on intended application and labeling.

Q5: How is Quercetin content measured?

Quercetin content is quantified via HPLC with UV detection at 370 nm per USP / Ph. Eur. methods.

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 Quercetin content, hydrate form, particle size) 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.
