How to make

Heat reflux extraction method: Rosmarinic acid is an acid containing polyphenolic hydroxyl groups, easily soluble in water and ethanol aqueous solution, insoluble in oil and absolute ethanol. According to its solubility characteristics, water or ethanol can be selected as the solvent for extraction.

Extraction process (taking the extraction from rosemary as an example): the material is crushed to 20 mesh, and 15% ethanol solution is used to extract 4 times, each time is 1h, and the yield rate of rosmarinic acid is 94.37%

Food antioxidant

At present, rosemary extract powder is mainly used in food antioxidants and preservatives.

Dried rosemary leaves have a long history as a food spice. Modern research shows that the non-volatile components of rosemary perform well as antioxidant.

The antioxidant activity of its main active ingredient carnosol is comparable to that of BHA. The antioxidant activity of phenol is 5 times that of BHT and BHA.

It is a new generation of pure natural antioxidants, completely avoiding the toxic side effects of synthetic antioxidants and the weakness of high temperature decomposition.

Toxicological experiments and high-temperature frying experiments proved that the product is of safe, high efficient, heat resistant and broad-spectrum bactericidal.

Rosemary extract has the characteristics of high efficiency and safety, and is widely used in cosmetics, perfume, soap, air freshener, insect repellent, medicine, various animal and vegetable oils, animal feed, meat products, seafood, flour, seasoning sauce, seasoning Ingredients, baked goods, fried products, natural pigments, flavors, biological pesticides, tobacco and other fields.
