Raw Material & Quality Control
The raw material of Fraxetin is derived from Cortex Fraxini (Fraxinus rhynchophylla Hance), in accordance with the Chinese Pharmacopoeia standards.
Identification and assay are performed using HPLC methods to ensure high purity and consistent batch quality.
Strict in-house SOPs are applied throughout extraction, purification, and refining processes with continuous quality monitoring.
Each batch is further verified by third-party laboratories for heavy metals, microbial limits, and safety compliance before release.
What is Fraxetin
Fraxetin is a natural coumarin compound derived from Cortex Fraxini (Fraxinus rhynchophylla Hance). It belongs to the class of phenolic secondary metabolites widely distributed in medicinal plants.
It is structurally related to other coumarin derivatives but exhibits distinct antioxidant and photoprotective properties, making it a valuable functional ingredient in cosmetic and pharmaceutical applications.
Due to its chemical stability and bioactivity profile, Fraxetin is widely used in formulation development and plant-derived active ingredient research.
What are Main Components of Fraxetin
Fraxetin is a high-purity single coumarin derivative with a stable molecular structure and defined biological characteristics.
Fraxetin (Primary Active Compound)
The main active molecule responsible for antioxidant and photoprotective properties in Cortex Fraxini extracts.
Related Coumarin Compounds
Trace levels of structurally related compounds such as esculetin may coexist and contribute to synergistic activity.
