Sourcing and specification details
Dandelion CO2 Extract originates from England and is produced via supercritical fluid extraction of Taraxacum officinale Webb.ex Wigg. roots. The resulting oily liquid reaches buyers in 5 g packs with guaranteed absence of solvent residues. International labs source this material through the CO2 Extracts category for consistent quality across batches. The extraction preserves the native profile of plant compounds effectively.
Technical parameters for formulation
Fat-soluble character allows direct addition into oil phases at 0.1-1.5 percent. Shelf life extends to December 2028 when stored cool and dark in sealed containers. The method preserves native plant compounds without high-temperature degradation. This ensures predictable performance in both small-scale and larger production settings.
Applications for manufacturers
Cosmetic laboratories incorporate the extract into creams, serums and hair products. Supplement and food producers use it as botanical raw material for functional blends, beverages and confectionery items. Both private formulators and factories purchase retail or wholesale quantities for scale-up trials. Botanical Extracts provide related materials that support formulation flexibility across different product lines.
Compatibility with other CO2 extracts supports creation of complex botanical profiles in single formulations without process changes.
Dosage and phase integration
Add during cooling stage below 40 degrees Celsius after emulsion formation. No additional solubilizers required due to lipid affinity. The process remains straightforward for testing new recipes.
Example supplement blend
Carrier oil 85 g, Dandelion CO2 Extract 1.2 g, tocopherol 0.8 g, rosemary antioxidant 0.5 g. Blend oils at 35 degrees, incorporate extract and antioxidants, then fill into capsules or bottles for stability testing. This example illustrates practical use in developing new product lines.
Storage recommendations
Protect from direct light and temperature fluctuations to maintain declared activity until the indicated date. Bulk options appear in CO2 Extracts Wholesale for ongoing manufacturing requirements.
