Description
STANDARDISED BOTANICAL EXTRACT
Peganum harmala L. Seed Extract
Peganum harmala seed extract is offered in two commercial forms and the difference is written into the quotation rather than implied on the page: a 10:1 ratio grade declared on plant input, or an alkaloid-standardised grade declared on harmine and harmaline content by HPLC. The two cannot be compared on price per kilogram, so the grade is fixed before the quotation is issued.

Buyer Decision Guide
This is a material where the specification should be written before the price is discussed. Three points determine what you are actually buying.
- Grade basis: ratio (plant input) or alkaloid-standardised (HPLC), stated in the quotation.
- For alkaloid grades, harmine and harmaline reported separately rather than as a single total.
- Identity confirmed as Peganum harmala seed, not whole-herb or root material.
- Particle size, loss on drying and heavy metals reported per batch.
- Destination-market status reviewed before shipment; documentation prepared to the buyer’s requirement.
- COA, specification sheet and safety data sheet accompany each shipment.
How This Grade Differs
Because the catalogue carries no other Peganum grade, this page covers both the ratio and the alkaloid-standardised form. The specification is agreed in writing per order so the COA and the quotation always describe the same material.
Quality and Documentation
Ratio grades are declared on plant input with the extraction batch recorded. Alkaloid grades are assayed by HPLC with harmine and harmaline integrated separately, and the result carried onto the certificate for that lot.
Regulatory Note
Peganum harmala contains harmala alkaloids, which are controlled or restricted in a number of destination markets. This material is supplied as a botanical extract for industrial and research use, not as a food, supplement or pharmaceutical finished product. Regulatory status, import licensing, permitted uses and labelling are the buyer’s responsibility for the destination market.
