Cistanche Tubulosa Extract from Xi'an DN Biology delivers standardized phenylethanoid glycosides for your formulation needs. Our extract contains 10-50% Echinacoside and 1-10% Acteoside, verified by HPLC testing.
With over 14 years of extraction expertise, we process up to 3,000 tons annually using advanced extraction vessels and integrated concentration systems. Our facility maintains ISO9001, GMP, HACCP, Kosher, and Halal certifications, ensuring every batch meets international compliance standards. We offer 7-15 days production lead time with flexible MOQ starting from just 1kg, plus OEM/ODM services tailored to your specifications.
Our product is derived from the succulent stems of Cistanche tubulosa (Schenk) Wight, a parasitic plant thriving in the Taklamakan Desert region. This botanical treasure, often called "Desert Ginseng," outperforms its cousin Cistanche deserticola in active compound concentration.
You get a brown-yellow fine powder with 80 mesh particle size. It's water-soluble and ready for both solid and liquid formulations. Our extraction ratio of 10:1 ensures maximum bioactivity retention.
The real advantage? We control the entire supply chain from planting base to finished product. This full-chain traceability guarantees consistent quality in every shipment.

Quality You Can Check
We have our own lab that is fully stocked with HPLC, GC, TLC, and UV-Vis spectrophotometers. HPTLC fingerprinting is used to check the identity of each batch and tell the difference between real C. tubulosa and fakes.
Following USP guidelines for heavy metal screening: Lead <3.0ppm, Arsenic <2.0ppm, Mercury <0.1ppm, and Cadmium <1.0ppm. GC-MS multi-residue pesticide analysis makes sure that FDA and EU rules are followed.

Nootropics and Brain Health
Our extract is used by formulators to make brain health supplements that support BDNF and neuronal plasticity. It always works well when mixed with phospholipids, giving you a natural way to improve your memory and learning.
Sports Nutrition
Cistanche Tubulosa Extract is used in anti-fatigue products to help make ATP and speed up the healing process. Even in acidic pre-workout powders with a lot of minerals, it stays stable.
