Mucuna Pruriens Extract Powder

INCI Name: MUCUNA PRURIENS SEED EXTRACT
CAS No.: 90064‑10‑1
Botanical Source: Mucuna pruriens (L.) DC. seeds
Appearance: Off‑white to white fine powder
Extraction Type: Low‑temperature water extraction, concentration, vacuum drying, ultra‑fine grinding

Description

Products Description

 

Derived from mature seeds of Mucuna pruriens (L.) DC., also widely known as velvet bean, this standardized botanical extract delivers natural L‑DOPA (levodopa), the direct biological precursor of dopamine. Adopting low‑temperature water‑based extraction, vacuum concentration and ultrafine pulverization workflows, our production strictly filters unwanted seed‑pod impurities to lock consistent active‑substance potency batch‑to‑batch.

Besides marker L‑DOPA, this off‑white‑to‑white fine powder naturally carries multi‑component botanicals including polyphenols, plant alkaloids and β‑sitosterol, bringing extra antioxidant and cell‑protective benefits. As a bulk industrial raw material, it is engineered to be incorporated into dietary supplements, sports nutrition formulas and functional food systems, supporting dopaminergic balance and adaptogenic requirements for finished‑product developers. Please note this raw powder cannot be consumed directly by end‑users.
