Specification strategy
What buyers should specify before comparing Garlic Bulb Extract.
Garlic Bulb Extract grades can differ in marker profile, extract ratio, carrier system, colour, sensory profile and physical powder behaviour. These variables should be confirmed against the exact commercial specification.
For this ingredient, commercial specifications may be differentiated by alliin / allicin-related sulfur compounds where specified. NutriCo does not assume every available grade uses the same target; the current specification should be used for confirmation.
Botanical Identity & StandardisationAllium sativum bulb extract. Standardisation options are defined according to the selected commercial specification, including alliin / allicin-related sulfur compounds where relevant.
Extraction & Carrier SystemPressurised aqueous extraction with spray-dried powder format. Extract ratio and carrier system are defined according to the selected commercial grade.
Physical CharacteristicsFine powder, typically off-white to cream, with characteristic botanical odour and taste. Moisture, bulk density and flow parameters are controlled according to specification.
