Pineapple

What is Pineapple extract, and what species does it come from?

Pineapple extract from Bio-Botanica is a botanical extract made from Ananas comosus, a plant in the Bromeliaceae family, native to Tropical Central and South America. The extract is made from the berry. Bio-Botanica has manufactured botanical extracts at its cGMP facility in Hauppauge, New York since 1972.

What part of Pineapple does Bio-Botanica extract?

Bio-Botanica extracts the berry of Pineapple (Ananas comosus). The plant part is stated on every specification sheet, because part-versus-species accuracy matters for identity testing and for label copy in the finished product.

What extract forms of Pineapple are available?

Pineapple (Ananas comosus) is available from Bio-Botanica as cosmetic glycerin extract. Each form carries its own Part ID and its own specification. Which one suits you depends on the carrier, the solids content and the process your finished product runs through.

Where does Pineapple originate?

Pineapple (Ananas comosus) is native to Tropical Central and South America. Bio-Botanica sources raw Pineapple against identity and quality specifications, and every incoming lot is tested in our onsite laboratory before extraction begins.

Is Pineapple extract standardized to a specific compound?

Bio-Botanica’s Pineapple (Ananas comosus) extracts are full-spectrum rather than standardized to a single marker compound. The Bio-Chelated process is designed to carry the botanical’s naturally occurring constituents through in their native ratios. If your specification calls for a standardized Pineapple material, our team can discuss a custom extraction.

What applications is Pineapple extract suited for?

Positioning is structure/function only.
