Mulberry extract

Mulberry extract (CAS 90064-11-2), also marketed as Mulberry Leaf Extract and sourced from Morus nigra, is a botanical extract standardized for bioactive compounds including anthocyanins and flavonoids.

It functions as a natural antioxidant and flavoring agent across food, cosmetic, and nutraceutical applications. In functional food and beverage formulations, it delivers natural color and mild fruit flavor.

The extract provides antioxidant activity to products such as juices, confectionery, and dietary supplements. Nutraceutical manufacturers use standardized mulberry leaf extract in capsule and tablet formats targeting metabolic health.

In personal care, it is incorporated into skin-brightening serums, creams, and toners. Its antioxidant profile supports anti-aging and complexion-evening claims for high-end cosmetic formulations.

Pharmaceutical and healthcare formulators source it as a botanical active in standardized herbal preparations and combination extracts. It is supplied as a spray-dried powder, liquid extract, or concentrated paste.

Standard grades include food-grade and cosmetic-grade specifications. Standardization levels are typically expressed as a percentage of anthocyanins or total polyphenols to ensure consistent quality.

Organic-certified material is available from select suppliers for clean-label and natural product formulations. This botanical ingredient meets rigorous industry requirements for purity and performance.
