Hydroxyecdysone/Beta Ecdysterone

Synonyme: 20-Hydroxyecdysone, Ecdysterone, 20E, β-Ecdysone, 20-Hydroxy-ecdysone, Polypodine A, Commisterone

Hydroxyecdysone has moved from a niche insect hormone to a mainstream ingredient in sports nutrition and anti-aging formulations. Its ability to support muscle protein synthesis and metabolic health without hormonal side effects has caught the attention of formulators looking for natural alternatives to anabolic agents.

Chemically, it is a polyhydroxylated ecdysteroid — a steroid hormone found in insects and plants. Commercially, it is extracted from Cyanotis vaga or Serratula coronata, with the plant source offering a sustainable, scalable supply. The molecule features a characteristic 7-dehydrocholesterol backbone with hydroxyl groups at positions 2, 3, 14, 20, 22, and 25, which drive its bioactivity.

Our Hydroxyecdysone is standardized to ≥98% purity by HPLC, making it suitable for clinical research, premium supplements, and pharmaceutical development. Each batch is tested for residual solvents and heavy metals to meet global regulatory standards.

Produktübersicht und Zusammensetzung

Hydroxyecdysone is a naturally occurring ecdysteroid that acts as a molting hormone in insects and a defensive compound in plants. In mammals, it has been studied for its anabolic, adaptogenic, and antioxidant properties. The compound is a white crystalline powder, stable under normal storage conditions, and soluble in polar organic solvents.

Our product is derived from Cyanotis vaga, a plant native to Southeast Asia, through a water-ethanol extraction process followed by chromatographic purification. This yields a high-purity, single-compound ingredient with consistent batch-to-batch quality.
