Green tea Extract 50%

Manufacturing

Fresh green tea leaves from the Camellia sinensis plant are carefully harvested. The leaves are steam-treated after harvesting to prevent enzymatic oxidation and preserve the bioactive ingredients. The leaves are then dried and ground into a fine powder. The polyphenols and catechins in the powdered green tea are then extracted using a solvent (usually ethanol or water). Green tea extract is concentrated in the solution to a 50% concentration, and quality control procedures guarantee the required potency and purity. A concentrated and standardized green tea extract can be obtained by further standardizing the finished extract and filtering it to get rid of any contaminants.

Applications

The green tea extract can be used as a natural antioxidant in food to help extend the shelf life. It has flavoring properties which may contribute to a unique taste. Additionally, it is beneficial for creating various cosmetic formulations that promote healthy-looking skin.
