What Makes Our Ajuga Ciliata Bunge Extract Stand Out?
This botanical derivative originates from the whole herb of Ajuga ciliata Bunge, a member of the Lamiaceae family. Historically valued for anti-inflammatory properties, the extract now serves modern industries seeking natural, non-hormonal anabolic agents.
The primary active compound, Turkesterone, addresses critical challenges in protein synthesis enhancement without androgenic side effects. It offers stable, plant-based metabolic activation that withstands complex processing environments.
Our extraction process maintains bioactivity through controlled temperature protocols. Dynamic circulatory extraction using water-alcohol solvents ensures thorough dissolution of active constituents. Multi-stage precision filtration and column chromatography purification deliver consistent specifications.

Versatile Application Possibilities
Our extract is featured in endurance powders and muscle recovery capsules by sports nutrition producers. It is stable to heat up to 80°C and therefore appropriate for normal tableting and encapsulating operations.
Developers of functional foods add it to sporty snacks and post-exercise drinks. It is stable to pasteurisation and stays active at acid pH.
It's included as an ingredient in wellness tablets in hormone balance formulae. Soluble in ethanol facilitates manufacturing of alcohol-based oral liquids and hard capsules.
Fitness supplement brands use it in pre-workout mixes and recovery smoothies. Fine powder grain provides smooth mixing and uniform dose administration.

Raw Material Selection and Processing
We source organically grown Ajuga ciliata Bunge herb from certified farms with strict pesticide controls. Dead stems, leaves and extraneous materials are removed by strict screening before processing.
Preparatory steps before extraction include preliminary washing, sectioning and drying. Multi-functional tanks provide dynamic circulatory extraction at controlled temperature.
The multi-stage precision filtration removes all plant remnants. Column chromatography using macroporous resins was used to selectively adsorb target flavonoid molecules.
Active ingredients were isolated by gradient elution with different ethanol-water ratios. The solvent is recovered by vacuum concentration and the content of turkesterone is enriched.
The bioactivity is preserved by spray-drying or freeze-drying depending on the heat sensitivity. Micronization and sieving provide homogeneous particle size for maximum formulation performance.
Quality Assurance and Compliance
We have a skilled QC staff that checks every step of the production process. State-of-the-art analytical instruments confirm the amount of turkesterone, limits of heavy metals and microbiological safety.
We have complete traceability across the batch process from source material to final packaging. Support for third party testing to assure compliance with FDA, ISO, Kosher and International food safety regulations.
All shipments are accompanied with COA, TDS, MSDS and MOA paperwork. Our quality processes are in accordance with rigorous GMP guidelines for Pharmaceutical Grade Ingredient manufacturing.
A safety stock of more than 30 days ensures an uninterrupted continuation of supply. Flexible delivery terms: EXW, FOB, CFR, CIF, DAP, DDP etc Global logistics partnerships
