Imperatorin Sources and Extraction

We source imperatorin from Angelica dahurica root, which naturally contains up to 1% of this active compound. The extraction process uses ethanol reflux, followed by concentration, crystallization, and drying to yield a pure, 98% minimum crystalline powder. Every batch is tested by HPLC to confirm purity, and we ship with a full Certificate of Analysis.

Imperatorin Bioavailability and Stability

Imperatorin is lipophilic, which means it absorbs well in the body when formulated with oils or cyclodextrins. It’s stable under normal storage conditions, but we recommend keeping it in a cool, dry place away from direct light. For research or formulation, it dissolves readily in DMSO or ethanol.

Imperatorin in Research and Applications

Researchers are exploring imperatorin for its anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective, and vasodilatory properties. It’s also used in dermatological studies for its ability to inhibit melanin production. In the pharmaceutical and nutraceutical industries, it’s a key marker compound for standardizing Angelica extracts.
