Sanguisorba officinalis root extract powder 10:1 with Great Burnet root

Sanguisorba Root Extract Powder

Sanguisorba Root Extract Powder is a botanical ingredient produced from the root of Sanguisorba officinalis L., a Rosaceae species commonly known as Great Burnet or Di Yu. Extraction, concentration, filtration, drying, milling, and sieving produce a brown to light brown fine powder for concentrated botanical formulations.

The primary commercial specification is a 10:1 extract ratio, with 4:1, 5:1, and 20:1 available as custom ratio options. Product evaluation can incorporate TLC or HPLC fingerprint identification and marker-based specifications for selected tannin and phenolic constituents. Carrier-free material is also available for projects requiring defined carrier status.

Ingredient Profile & Common Uses

The root is the botanical raw material used for this extract. Unlike directly milled Sanguisorba root powder, the material undergoes extraction and concentration before being dried and milled into its finished powder form. Commercial naming includes Sanguisorba Root Extract, Great Burnet Root Extract, Di Yu Extract, and Sanguisorba Extract Powder.

The 10:1 ratio is the principal commercial grade and describes the relationship between botanical raw-material input and resulting extract rather than the concentration of a single phytochemical. 4:1 and 5:1 provide lower-ratio custom formats, while 20:1 provides a higher-ratio option. Marker-controlled grades use defined phytochemical targets when quantitative standardization is required.

The finished ingredient can be incorporated into dry botanical systems and evaluated in dispersible powder applications. Its natural color, botanical solids, and extract matrix can influence wetting, haze, sedimentation, and sensory performance in aqueous systems, making formulation trials important for liquid or reconstituted products.

Application Areas

Botanical Capsules

The extract can be incorporated into single-botanical and multi-ingredient capsule formulations. Its 80–100 mesh particle profile supports dry blending, while production trials should assess bulk density, flow, segregation, and filling consistency.

Compressed Tablets

Sanguisorba root extract can be used in botanical tablet systems. Development work should evaluate powder flow, compression response, tablet hardness, friability, disintegration, and whether granulation is required for reliable manufacturing.

Botanical Powder Blends

The extract is suitable for concentrated botanical and multi-ingredient dry blends. Premixing with compatible ingredients can improve distribution where particle size, bulk density, or inclusion level differs from the surrounding matrix.

Stick Packs & Sachets

Fine-powder formats can be developed for portioned sachets and stick packs. Flowability, dosing accuracy, powder discharge, and caking tendency should be assessed on the intended filling equipment.

Beverage & Reconstitution Powders

The extract can be evaluated in reconstitution powders where its natural color is acceptable. Prototype testing should assess wetting, dispersion, turbidity, sedimentation, pH compatibility, and flavor impact.

Key Constituents & Extract Profile

The root contains a chemically diverse mixture dominated by tannin-related compounds and triterpenoid constituents. Published characterization identifies hydrolysable tannins, including ellagitannin- and gallotannin-related compounds, together with phenolic constituents associated with gallic and ellagic acid chemistry.

Triterpenoid glycosides are another characteristic constituent family. Ziyuglycoside I and ziyuglycoside II are among the compounds repeatedly associated with the root and provide useful product-specific phytochemical identity. Other reported constituents include flavonoids, phenolic acids, and related triterpenoid derivatives.

These constituents define the botanical chemistry rather than the assay of a ratio-defined commercial extract. A standardized grade requires a specified marker, quantitative analytical method, and acceptance value; the natural occurrence of a constituent alone does not establish its concentration in a commercial batch.

Technical & Quality Considerations

Botanical identity begins with confirmation of Sanguisorba officinalis L. root rather than reliance on the common names Great Burnet or Di Yu alone. TLC can support routine botanical identification, while HPLC fingerprinting provides a more detailed chemical-profile comparison. Marker-controlled grades should define the measured analyte separately from the extract ratio because identity testing, quantitative assay, and ratio specification serve different analytical purposes.

An 80–100 mesh particle specification supports routine dry blending but does not by itself determine powder flow or bulk density. Carrier-free material can behave differently from carrier-assisted extracts during drying, handling, dispersion, and filling, making carrier status an important procurement and formulation variable.

During scale-up, dry formulations should be assessed for premixing, blend uniformity, flow, segregation, capsule filling, and tablet compression under production-representative conditions. Reconstitution systems require separate evaluation of wetting, dispersion, haze, sediment formation, pH compatibility, and flavor. Color and astringency become increasingly relevant as the inclusion level rises.
