Passiflora Incarnata (Passion Flower) Herbal Extraction Plant
- Raw Material Selection: The aerial parts (leaves, stems, and flowers) of Passiflora Incarnata, commonly known as Passion Flower, are harvested from carefully cultivated medicinal herb gardens. The plant is valued for its flavonoids, alkaloids, glycosides, and sedative compounds.
- Cleaning and Preparation: Collected plant material is thoroughly cleaned with fresh water to remove soil, debris, and any unwanted particles. After cleaning, the material is shade-dried to preserve the delicate phytoconstituents, especially flavonoids like vitexin and isovitexin.
- Extraction Process: The powdered material is loaded into SS extraction tanks and subjected to hydroalcoholic extraction (typically using ethanol:water in varying ratios). The temperature and time are controlled to extract bioactives such as flavonoids, alkaloids (harmine, harmol), and glycosides without degradation.
- Filtration and Concentration: Post extraction, the mixture is filtered to remove coarse particles, and the liquid extract is collected for further processing.
- Standardization: The extract is standardized to contain desired levels of total flavonoids or alkaloids, ensuring batch-to-batch consistency for therapeutic applications.
- Packaging and Storage: The final extract is stored in airtight, light-resistant containers, under cool and dry conditions to maintain its efficacy and shelf life.
