Buyer Decision Guide
Codonopsis is specified as a ratio extract for food, beverage and supplement blends where a defined botanical identity is required. Confirm plant part, extraction ratio and carrier before approval; the ratio is a process definition and not a marker percentage.
- Confirm the root source and 10:1 ratio definition
- Compare TLC identity against the offered-batch COA
- Check carrier and blending suitability for your formula
- State the destination market for documentation review
How This Grade Differs
Codonopsis pilosula is frequently substituted by other Campanulaceae roots or by codename ‘dangshen’ materials from unrelated lots. The purchasing definition here is botanical identity (Codonopsis pilosula), plant part (Root) and the stated ratio grade.
Compare these related grades before approval:
For a substitution review, compare botanical identity, plant part, assay target, analytical method, physical form and the current offered-batch COA.
