Description

Citrus Limonum extract (CAS 84929-31-7), also supplied under the commercial designation Lemon ext. and assigned FEMA 2623, is a standardized botanical extract derived from lemon fruit. It delivers characteristic lemon flavor and fragrance notes alongside natural antioxidant activity, making it a recognized ingredient across food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical formulations.

In food and beverage manufacturing, it functions as a natural flavoring agent in confectionery, bakery products, beverages, and dairy applications where authentic citrus taste profiles are required. Personal care formulators incorporate it into skincare creams, hair care products, and fragrance compositions for its scent profile and antioxidant stabilizing effect on finished formulations.

Pharmaceutical and nutraceutical manufacturers use it in oral dosage forms, lozenges, and dietary supplements where natural lemon flavoring is needed to mask bitter actives. It also appears in functional food products where label-friendly antioxidant sourcing is a procurement priority. Citrus Limonum extract is available as a liquid extract, dried powder, or concentrated oleoresin.

Food-grade and cosmetic-grade specifications are standard market offerings, with FEMA 2623 status supporting use in flavored product applications for various global industries. Buyers should confirm solvent system, standardization parameters, and carrier format with suppliers to match formulation requirements and ensure compliance with specific regional regulations.
