Overview of Scutellaria Baicalensis Extract
Derived from the dried roots of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi, commonly known as Chinese Skullcap, this premium botanical extract is a highly sought-after raw material in the nutraceutical, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries. At Plant Extract Supply, we expertly manufacture Scutellaria baicalensis extract baicalein powder to deliver exceptional purity, potency, and formulation stability.
Baicalin (CAS#: 21967-41-9) and its aglycone, Baicalein, are the primary bioactive flavonoids found within the root. Through advanced extraction and purification technologies, our standardized baicalein powder preserves the full biological activity of these phytochemicals, ensuring consistent therapeutic efficacy for dietary supplements, functional foods, and clinical applications.
