We employ advanced production technology to ensure the high quality and unique advantages of our Organic Lemon Extract Powder:

• Raw Material Selection: Carefully selected organic lemons are used as raw materials, controlling quality from the source.
• Pre-treatment: Lemons undergo strict cleaning, peeling, and destoning before being cut into small pieces, ensuring the purity and freshness of the raw material.
• Extraction: Utilizing advanced technologies like Cold Pressing or Spray Drying, we maximize the retention of lemon's nutritional components and flavor substances, avoiding the destruction of active ingredients caused by high-temperature traditional processing methods.
• Pulverization and Sieving: The concentrated lemon juice is finely pulverized and sieved to ensure uniform, fine particle size, ease of dissolution, and blending, meeting the needs of various production processes.
• Packaging: Using advanced packaging technology, the processed extract powder is hermetically sealed to effectively block air and moisture, extending shelf life and ensuring product quality stability during transportation and storage.

The entire production process strictly adheres to organic standards and the quality control system. Every step, from raw material sourcing to finished product packaging, undergoes stringent testing and control, guaranteeing the highest quality and most reliable organic product for you.

Not all lemon extract powders on the market are equivalent. Here's an honest comparison of what separates a specification-grade ingredient from commodity material.

The core issue with commodity lemon powder is not that it's always wrong - it's that you can't verify it's right. When your EU retail partner requests a pesticide residue report or your US co-manufacturer asks for an HPLC chromatogram, "we use colorimetric assay" is not an acceptable answer.

We offer three standard packaging formats, each designed around a specific order volume and transit risk profile:

Q1: What is the difference between lemon extract powder and lemon juice powder?

Lemon juice powder is produced by spray-drying lemon juice - it retains citric acid and some vitamin C but contains minimal flavonoids. Lemon extract powder is produced by solvent extraction of the peel, which is where the majority of bioactive flavonoids (hesperidin, eriocitrin) and limonoids are concentrated. For functional supplement applications, extract powder delivers significantly higher bioactive compound content per gram.

Q2: Is your organic lemon extract powder water-soluble?

Yes. Our standard spray-dried grades are water-soluble and suitable for aqueous beverage systems at pH 3.5–7.0. Solubility is ≥98% in water at 25°C for our LEP-WF and LEP-VC5 grades. High-potency hesperidin grades (≥20%) have reduced water solubility due to the inherent low water solubility of hesperidin itself - we recommend these for encapsulated or tableted formats.

Q3: Can I use this ingredient in EU-market products?

Yes. Our organic lemon extract powder holds EU Organic certification under EC 834/2007. The ingredient is derived from Citrus limon peel, which is a recognized food ingredient under EU Novel Food Regulation (EU) 2015/2283 - it does not require novel food authorization. Full documentation for EU market compliance is included in the standard batch documentation package.

Q4: What is the recommended dosage for hesperidin from lemon extract powder?

Clinical studies on hesperidin have used doses ranging from 500 mg to 1,000 mg of hesperidin per day in human trials. Using our LEP-H20 grade (hesperidin ≥20%), this corresponds to approximately 2.5–5 g of extract powder per daily serving. We recommend working with your formulation team to align dosage with your specific product claims and target market regulatory requirements. We provide technical dosage guidance as part of our standard support.

Q5: How does eriocitrin in lemon extract differ from hesperidin in orange extract?

Hesperidin is the dominant flavanone in sweet orange (Citrus sinensis) and is widely available from orange peel extract. Eriocitrin (eriodictyol-7-rutinoside) is structurally distinct and found at significantly higher concentrations in lemon than in other citrus species. Research published in Free Radical Biology and Medicine showed eriocitrin has superior lipid peroxidation inhibition compared to hesperidin in certain oxidative stress models. For formulas specifically targeting mitochondrial antioxidant protection or lipid oxidation, lemon-sourced eriocitrin offers a differentiated positioning that orange extract cannot match.

Q6: What is the shelf life, and how should bulk material be stored?

Shelf life is 24 months from the production date under recommended storage conditions: sealed packaging, below 25°C, relative humidity ≤60%, away from direct light. Once opened, reseal immediately and use within 3 months. Hesperidin and eriocitrin are relatively stable compared to vitamin C - high-potency flavonoid grades maintain ≥95% potency at 24 months under accelerated stability conditions (40°C/75% RH, 6 months). Whole-fruit grades containing natural vitamin C are more sensitive and should be prioritized for earlier use.

Q7: Do you offer OEM/ODM services for finished products containing lemon extract powder?

Yes. Jiuyuan Biotech offers full OEM and ODM services across four dosage forms: capsules, tablets, powder sachets, and softgels. We support private label branding, custom formulation development, and contract manufacturing for supplement brands at all stages - from concept to finished, labeled product. Minimum order quantities and lead times vary by format. Contact our team for a detailed OEM quotation.

Q8: Can I visit your facility or conduct a remote audit?

Absolutely. We welcome in-person facility visits at our 70,000 m² manufacturing campus in Shaanxi province. For international buyers, we offer scheduled live video factory tours with real-time access to production lines, QC laboratory, and raw material storage. Contact us to schedule either option at your convenience.
