Euterpe oleracea extract

Euterpe oleracea extract (CAS 879496-95-4), commonly known as açaí extract, is derived from the fruit of the South American açaí palm. It delivers a concentrated source of polyphenols and anthocyanins used across food, cosmetic, and nutraceutical formulations.

This ingredient serves as a natural antioxidant and colorant in various industrial applications. In functional food and beverage manufacturing, it is incorporated into energy drinks, smoothie blends, and fortified snack products.

Natural antioxidant positioning supports premium product claims for these consumer goods. Nutraceutical formulators use it in capsules, softgels, and powdered supplements targeting the growing consumer demand for botanical antioxidant products.

In personal care, the extract is used in anti-aging serums, facial creams, and hair care formulations. Its polyphenol content supports the oxidative stability of the finished product while providing skin-conditioning benefits.

Pharmaceutical and health product manufacturers also source it as an active botanical ingredient in standardized herbal preparations. The extract is available as a spray-dried powder, liquid extract, and freeze-dried powder.

Spray-dried forms are the most common for industrial use due to their stability and ease of handling. Standardized grades specifying anthocyanin content are available for nutraceutical and cosmetic applications.

Food-grade and cosmetic-grade specifications are the primary commercial offerings for global buyers. Some suppliers also provide organic-certified material to meet specific regulatory and consumer requirements in niche markets.
