What is Horsetail Leaf Extract?

Horsetail leaf extract is brownish yellow fine powder, and its main components are organosilicon, astragalin, salicin and vitexin. The horsetail plant extract is selected as the raw material.

Material preparation: chop or pulverize 50g of the quince raw material into fragments, and crush through a 10-40 mesh sieve;

Through the alcohol extraction process: extract twice with 200-400ml of 40-80% ethanol aqueous solution, the extraction temperature is 70-90°C, and the extraction time is 2h and 2h respectively;

Concentration: Vacuum concentration (vacuum degree is -0.05MPa ~ 0.088MPa. Concentration temperature: <65°C;), after recovering ethanol, the specific gravity of the concentrate is 1.05-1.1;

Sedimentation: add 0.1 times the volume of the concentrate to the concentrate of Ca(OH)2 aqueous solution, stir well, place the precipitate for 12h~36h, take the supernatant and filter; the total flavonoid content is 4.46%

Ingredients: Add maltodextrin (about 10% of the weight of horsetail root extract) to the filtrate, mix evenly, spray dry (inlet air temperature 160-200°C, outlet air temperature 90-100°C), crush, pass through 80-200 mesh sieve ,Packaging and storage.

The ash content in the horsetail plant extract is significantly reduced, the ash content is about 4.2% of the total weight, the total flavonoid content is about 4.5% of the total weight, and the extraction rate of the total flavonoids is 95.6%.

Basic Information:

Horsetail Leaf Extract Benefits:

One study examined the use of horsetail by people who had a history of uric acid kidney stones. The people who took horsetail experienced an increase in diuresis (urine output). Other studies suggest horsetail has properties and may inhibit cancer cell growth.

(1) The silicide in the horsetail leaf extract is an effective ingredient in the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular system diseases. 

It can adjust the permeability of the blood vessel wall, reduce the permeability of lipids, and prevent lipid deposition, and promote elastic fiber proliferation and collagen Biosynthesis of collagen fibers to maintain the elasticity of blood vessel walls. Therefore, quince can lower blood lipids and protect the myocardium, thereby preventing and treating atherosclerosis, hypertension, and coronary heart disease. Methanol extract of Vitex quintana can effectively resist experimental myocardial ischemia. The water extract of Vitex pratense can significantly reduce the immune blood pressure regardless of the route of administration.

(2) The silicide in the horsetail plant extract is an effective ingredient in the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular system diseases.

 It can adjust the permeability of the blood vessel wall, reduce the permeability of lipids, and prevent lipid deposition, and promote elastic fiber proliferation and collagen Biosynthesis of collagen fibers to maintain the elasticity of blood vessel walls. Therefore, quince can lower blood lipids and protect the myocardium, thereby preventing and treating atherosclerosis, hypertension, and coronary heart disease. The content of silicide in the quince is relatively high, and the content of silicic acid is about 5.19%-7.77% of the dry crude drug. Silicon is one of the essential elements for animals. Humans need 20-30 mg of silicon per day. If silicon is lacking or silicon metabolism is disturbed, many diseases can be caused. Diabetic patients and the silicon content in the pancreas are significantly low, and thorns can supplement the silicon in the blood and pancreas, so it can be used to treat various types of diabetes. Chrysanthemum quinquefolium and silicon-containing compounds can fight against various bacteria and fungi. For example, introducing silicon groups into the structure of antibiotics can significantly improve the efficacy of antibiotics; Acetyl ketone and onitin.

(3) Horsetail root extract can regulate the functional activities of the kidneys. 

Intravenous administration of Vitex water extract to rats can produce 100%-150% diuretic effect without irritating the urethra or causing inflammation. In addition to silicic acid, the main components of diuresis include vitex saponin and vitex acid. The silicides in the quince can remove metabolites, foreign substances and poisons in the body, so as to protect the body from detoxification and detoxification.

(4) The dilute solution prepared from horsetail leaf extract and ammonia water can control the bad smell in sugar-made foods, and is used in food preservation and toothpaste additives.
