A natural functional ingredient derived from Mulberry Leaves, standardized with 1-Deoxynojirimycin (DNJ, 0.5%-10% customizable).
The manufacturer is a technology-driven innovation and green manufacturing-oriented producer. Through multiple agricultural planting bases, two internationally standardized production facilities, and a technical research institute affiliated with Central South University, the enterprise provides natural raw materials for food and pharmaceutical industries. Adhering to the principles of promoting human health and ecological environmental friendliness, it continuously researches and manufactures technically advanced, natural, effective, and safe products.
Currently, the enterprise operates a 15,000-square-meter extraction workshop equipped with a complete production system including extraction, concentration, purification-separation, and power subsystems. With an annual processing capacity of 5,000 tons of medicinal raw materials, the R&D and Quality Management Department is equipped with full-suite analytical instruments such as atomic absorption spectrometers, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), ultra-high performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC), and microbiological detectors. Quality management and R&D teams account for 35% of the total workforce.
We carefully choose high-quality mulberry leaves to ensure the extract contains a high DNJ (1-Deoxynojirimycin) content. Through strict quality control and deep cooperation with planting bases, we ensure batch stability and meet international standards. The extract demonstrates significant α-glucosidase inhibition and glucose solubility, acting as an innovative herbal solution for blood glucose support.
Currently, it is an active ingredient for nutritional supplements. Although some of its properties compare favorably to approved drugs, it is formally classified as a natural active ingredient. Continuous research is underway to explore future pharmaceutical potential.
