Reliable Velvet Bean Extract Manufacturer & Bulk Supplier
Greenherb operates a controlled extraction facility specializing in Velvet Bean Extract. We source de-fuzzed seeds of Mucuna pruriensfrom contracted growing plots, using low-temperature ethanol extraction and resin purification to enrich L-dopa while removing irritant seed coat components. We provide full export documentation and third-party testing for seamless supply chain integration.
Why Choose Greenherb Velvet Bean Extract
● Standardized L-Dopa Potency – We calibrate L-dopa levels per batch to ensure our extract performs consistently in velvet bean supplement formulations, with customizable assay from 15% to 99%.
● Seed-Coat Removal Pretreatment – Mechanical de-fuzzing and de-hulling eliminates the irritant trichomes and tannin-heavy seed coat before extraction, improving final powder purity.
● Low-Temp Extraction – Sub-50°C solvent process protects heat-sensitive L-dopa from racemization during processing.
● Resin Purification – Macroporous resin steps strip excess plant waxes and pigments, concentrating active content without harsh chemicals.
● Solvent Residue Compliance – Post-processing solvent checks meet ICH Q3C limits for global supplement imports.
● Heavy Metal & Pesticide Screening – Multi-point ICP-MS and GC-MS testing ensures compliance with EU/US food-grade standards.
● Mesh Customization – Default 80 mesh, adjustable up to 120 mesh for capsule/tablet line flow optimization.
● Direct Factory Pricing – Transparent quotes for trial batches to full container loads, no distributor markup.
Certificate of Analysis
Product Introduction
Velvet Bean Extract is a concentrated botanical ingredient derived from the de-hulled seeds of Mucuna pruriens. Unlike physically ground velvet bean powder that carries variable native L-dopa levels, this extract isolates and enriches the amino acid derivative via controlled low-temperature solvent extraction, delivering a standardized raw material for nutraceutical manufacturers requiring batch-to-batch consistency.
Production Process
Greenherb follows a controlled extraction workflow:
-
Seed Pretreatment – Harvested seeds are de-fuzzed and de-hulled to remove irritant outer layers, retaining only pure cotyledons.
-
Crushing – Uniform grinding of cotyledons to optimize extraction surface area.
-
Low-Temp Ethanol Extraction – Targeted solvent extraction to isolate L-dopa and companion phytocompounds.
-
Resin Purification – Macroporous resin adsorption enriches L-dopa and strips waxes/impurities.
-
Vacuum Concentration – Solvent recovery under reduced pressure to produce extract paste.
-
Spray Drying – Mixed with food-grade carriers (optional) and dried to free-flowing powder.
-
QC Release – Test L-dopa assay, heavy metals, pesticides, microbiology per batch.
-
Packaging – Double PE inner + desiccant, nitrogen-flush sealed in fiber drums.
Functional Properties & Benefits
As a standardized botanical extract, it offers formulation advantages:
● Consistent Active Loading – Removes natural L-dopa variability of raw seeds for reproducible finished product specs.
● Enriched Profile – Retains minor seed alkaloids and flavonoids alongside concentrated L-dopa.
● Process Stability – Low-temperature processing minimizes L-dopa racemization during manufacturing.
● Clean Label Compatible – Solvent residues within global limits, no irradiation or chemical preservatives.
Applications
Velvet Bean Extract is engineered for formulation use:
● Nutraceutical Blends – Capsule/tablet fill, powdered botanical SKUs for dietary supplement lines.
● Functional Beverage Premixes – Water-dispersible carrier grades available for ready-to-mix drink bases.
● R&D Prototyping – Lab samples for formula testing and stability validation.
