Green Tea Extract 98% EGCG

Manufacturing

1. The first step in the process is choosing premium green tea leaves, which are prized for having a high catechin content.
2. To extract the bioactive substances, including EGCG, from the plant material, the chosen leaves are treated to an extraction procedure utilizing either water or a water-ethanol mixture.
3. After that, the extract is concentrated under low pressure to get rid of extra solvents and concentrate the catechins, which include EGCG.
4. To raise the EGCG content, the concentrated extract goes through purification processes like column chromatography. 
5. Before being packaged for sale, the finished product is examined using analytical methods like HPLC (High-Performance Liquid Chromatography) to confirm the EGCG concentration and guarantee product purity, potency, and safety.
