HA6994 Passion Flower Extract Powder

Passion Flower Extract Powder Description

Passion Flower Extract Powder appears as a pale tan powder with a characteristic herbal aroma and slight bitterness. It has a bulk density ranging between 0.35 and 0.45 g/cm³ for easy blending. Passion Flower Extract Powder targets a particle size distribution of D90 below 50μm for instant dissolution. Stability testing confirms that Passion Flower Extract Powder maintains integrity for 24 months when stored below 25°C and 60% relative humidity, protected from light. Passion Flower Extract Powder maintains efficacy across a pH range of 3.0 to 8.0. Thermal gravimetric analysis indicates that Passion Flower Extract Powder begins decomposition at 198°C, allowing brief pasteurization up to 90°C. Apigenin content in Passion Flower Extract Powder remains at least 95% after accelerated aging conditions of 40°C and 75% relative humidity for six months. Passion Flower Extract Powder exhibits solubility exceeding 85% in cold aqueous systems below 10°C and 92% in glycerin solutions. Chromatographic purity testing confirms that Passion Flower Extract Powder is free from pesticide residues and has microbial counts below 1 000 CFU/g. Passion Flower Extract Powder in 10% solutions has a viscosity under 15 cP to prevent gelation.

Manufacturing Process

1.       Testing Method

(1)    Chemical Composition Analysis - Verified using techniques such as GDMS or XRF to ensure compliance with purity requirements.

(2)    Mechanical Properties Testing - Includes tensile strength, yield strength, and elongation tests to assess material performance.

(3)    Dimensional Inspection - Measures thickness, width, and length to ensure adherence to specified tolerances.

(4)    Surface Quality Inspection - Checks for defects such as scratches, cracks, or inclusions through visual and ultrasonic examination.

(5)    Hardness Testing - Determines material hardness to confirm uniformity and mechanical reliability.

Please refer to the SAM testing procedures for detailed information.

Passion Flower Extract Powder FAQs

Q1. How does this compare to valerian root for sleep support?

Passion flower targets GABA receptors more selectively, reducing next-day drowsiness while matching valerian’s sleep latency reduction in clinical trials at 450 mg doses.

Q2. Can it be used in carbonated drinks without foaming?

Yes, its low saponin content (<0.3%) prevents excessive foaming, even in high-pressure canning at 4.5 vol CO₂.

Q3. Is there a risk of interaction with antidepressants?

Avoid combining with MAO inhibitors due to potential GABAergic interactions; otherwise exhibits excellent safety in SSRI co-administration studies.

1.       Common Preparation Methods

Fresh Passiflora incarnata aerial parts undergo cryogrinding at -40°C before extraction in 50% food-grade ethanol at 70°C for 4 hours. The miscella is filtered through diatomaceous earth, then concentrated via reverse osmosis at 35°C to preserve thermolabile flavonoids. The syrup is blended with acacia gum (1:1.5 ratio) and spray-dried with inlet/outlet temperatures of 150°C/55°C, producing free-flowing powder with ≤4.5% moisture. Final QC verifies apigenin ≥2.5% via HPLC, residual solvents <50 ppm, and aerobic bacteria <10³ CFU/g. Nitrogen-flushed foil packaging ensures 36-month stability.
