Fenugreek Extract supplier specification
Nutrition BioTech is a bulk fenugreek extract ingredient supplier and manufacturer, supplying Trigonella foenum-graecum L. seed extract standardised to an agreed marker by HPLC or UV, produced by solvent extraction and purification, for B2B nutraceutical formulation.
Fenugreek is a multi-marker botanical, and the standardisation choice defines the material. The two commercial routes are saponin-standardised extract (steroidal or furostanolic saponins, typically by UV or gravimetric method) and 4-hydroxyisoleucine-standardised extract (by HPLC). They are not interchangeable in label space, cost or specification, so the marker, method and percentage are agreed per order and stated on the Certificate of Analysis.
| Ingredient name | Fenugreek Extract (Trigonella foenum-graecum L. seed extract) |
|---|---|
| Synonyms | Fenugreek seed extract; Trigonella foenum-graecum extract; methi seed extract |
| CAS number | Not applicable — multi-constituent botanical extract, identified by botanical source, plant part, extraction ratio and standardised marker rather than a single CAS number. The reference marker 4-hydroxyisoleucine carries CAS 55399-93-4 (C6H13NO3, 147.17 g/mol) where that standardisation is selected. |
| Botanical identity | Trigonella foenum-graecum L., Fabaceae; seed. Identity confirmed by macroscopic, TLC or HPLC fingerprint as agreed. |
| Standardisation | Standardised to an agreed marker — steroidal or furostanolic saponins by UV or gravimetric method, or 4-hydroxyisoleucine by HPLC. Marker, method and percentage are specified per order; grade options available on request. |
| Source / production route | Solvent extraction of cleaned fenugreek seed followed by concentration, purification and drying. Extraction ratio, solvent system and carrier are stated on the specification sheet. |
| Appearance | Light yellow to yellow-brown or brown powder, characteristic odour |
| Solubility | Partially soluble to dispersible in water depending on grade and carrier; solubility and taste or odour behaviour should be confirmed in the intended base, since fenugreek carries a pronounced sensory profile. |
| Typical applications | Capsules, tablets, powder blends and sachets for B2B nutraceutical manufacturing; commonly formulated alongside berberine, chromium and dietary fibre |
| Documentation | Certificate of Analysis, specification sheet, botanical identity, extraction-ratio statement, heavy metals, microbiological testing, residual solvents, pesticide residues, allergen statement, GMO statement, carrier declaration and stability data |
| Quality system | ISO 22000:2018, FSSC 22000, HACCP and GMP (certificates provided on request) |
| Supplier | Nutrition BioTech, 1601 W. Mission Blvd, Suite 103 (DL#29), Pomona, CA 91766, United States |
Fenugreek Extract
Fenugreek extract for metabolic, appetite and performance-support formulations.
Why brands ask for it
Fenugreek Extract can support several formulation directions, including metabolic wellness, appetite support and performance formulas. The page should clearly separate standardization options and intended product angle to avoid confusing buyers.
Finished-product fit
Metabolic support, appetite support, testosterone/libido, lactation/women's wellness depending on claim route. The strongest conversations start with format, serving size, documentation, and how the material behaves in the intended formula.
What makes the sample useful
- Multiple market angles
- Saponins or 4-hydroxyisoleucine standardization
- Pairing with berberine, chromium, fiber
Before the sample ships
- Confirm active marker, assay method, and specification range.
- Check taste, odor, and sensory fit before formula lock.
- Confirm ratio.
- Request allergen, GMO, vegan, and source statements.
- Match the material to the target capsule, tablet, sachet, gummy, or powder format.
