Mitra S K Pvt Ltd: Experts in Standardizing Natural Products through Marker-Based and Secondary Metabolite Analysis

In the dynamic landscape of natural products, precision and quality are key to success. Mitra S K Pvt Ltd excels in standardizing natural products by leveraging advanced marker-based analysis and secondary metabolite quantification to ensure product authenticity, consistency, and efficacy.

Case Study: Estimation of Aloe Sterols in Aloe Vera Gel

Aloe vera is a cornerstone ingredient in the nutraceutical, cosmetic, and functional food industries, celebrated for its bioactive compounds like aloe sterols. At Mitra S K Pvt Ltd, we specialize in the gravimetric method for sterol analysis, an integral part of secondary metabolite quantification.

Our Expertise in Standardization

1. Marker-Based Analysis:

We identify and quantify specific markers to ensure the quality and authenticity of natural products.
This approach helps manufacturers substantiate product claims and meet regulatory standards.

2. Secondary Metabolite Profiling:

Our methods isolate and quantify bioactive compounds such as aloe sterols, supporting innovative product development and maintaining efficacy across batches.

Gravimetric Method for Aloe Sterol Analysis

Procedure Overview:

1. Selective Extraction:

Sterols, being lipid-soluble, are extracted using ethanol along with other lipophilic components.

2. Saponification:

Alkali treatment converts fats and oils into soap and glycerol, isolating sterols as unsaponifiable matter.

3. Isolation and Quantification:

Organic solvents like chloroform separate sterols from the mixture. The residue is dried and accurately weighed to determine sterol content.

Implications of Aloe Sterol Analysis

1. Product Efficacy:

Ensures the therapeutic potential of Aloe vera products by verifying sterol concentration.
Supports health claims like anti-inflammatory, skin-repairing, and cholesterol-lowering properties.

2. Regulatory Compliance:

Meets stringent global standards for nutraceuticals and cosmetics, boosting market credibility.

3. Consumer Trust:

Delivers transparency and quality assurance, building brand loyalty and confidence.

Challenges Overcome by Mitra S K Pvt Ltd

Variability in Raw Materials: Standardizing sterol content in diverse Aloe vera sources.
Precision in Analysis: Ensuring consistent, reproducible results across batches.
