AI Technical Summary
Existing spinach extracts have low β-ecdysone and polyphenol content, limiting their effectiveness in various applications, and there is a need for improved extracts with higher antioxidant potential and stability.
A spinach extract is developed with a β-ecdysone content of ≥1% to ≤10% and polyphenols of ≥2% to ≤50%, featuring a balanced ratio of spinatoside to 5,3',4'-trihydroxy-3-methoxy-6:7-methylenedioxy-flavone-4'-O-glucuronide, low nitrate/nitrite and oxalate content, and enhanced solubility in both polar and nonpolar solvents.
The extract exhibits high antioxidant potential, stability, and suitability for diverse applications, including pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and food products, with improved muscle atrophy treatment efficacy.
