Why Type-A Proanthocyanidins Matter?

The Science Behind Cranberry's Unique Compounds

Cranberries containType-A proanthocyanidins—a rare class of flavonoids with double-linked molecular structures. Unlike the common Type-B PACs found in grape seed or peanut skins, Type-A PACs have distinct biological properties.

Key differences:

· Type-A: Double A-linkage structure (rare in nature)

· Type-B: Single B-linkage structure (common in many plants)

Wild cranberries naturally provide 654mg PACs per 100g—approximately 20x higher than cultivated varieties. Our extraction process concentrates these compounds while removing insoluble fibers.

>For formulators:Type-A PAC content is what determines authentic cranberry extract quality. Many suppliers substitute cheaper Type-B sources. We test every batch using DMAC colorimetric analysis and HPLC to verify Type-A PAC presence.

Formulation Technical Data

Physical Properties

Solubility & Stability

Solubility:

· Water: Partially soluble (forms colloidal suspension)

· Ethanol (50%): Soluble

· Glycerin: Moderately soluble

· Oils: Insoluble

pH Stability:Most stable between pH 2.5-4.5 (typical of berry extracts)

Temperature Sensitivity:Avoid prolonged exposure above 60°C. Proanthocyanidin structures degrade at high temperatures.

Recommended Applications:

· Capsules and tablets (direct compression or wet granulation)

· Powdered drink mixes (with appropriate dispersing agents)

· Liquid extracts (hydroalcoholic or glycerin-based)

· Functional beverages (pH <4.5 recommended)

FAQ

Q: How do I verify this is real cranberry extract and not a substitute?

A: Request our batch-specific testing data. We provide HPLC chromatograms showing Type-A PAC peaks distinct from Type-B sources. We can also arrange third-party verification testing.

Q: What's the recommended usage level in supplements?

A: Clinical studies typically use 36-72mg Type-A PACs daily. With our 20% extract, this equals 180-360mg powder per serving. Always consult formulation experts for your specific application.

Q: Is this extract suitable for vegan/vegetarian products?

A: Yes—100% plant-derived with no animal-source processing aids. Suitable for vegan, vegetarian, Kosher, and Halal formulations.

Q: Can you provide documentation for FDA NDI notifications or international registrations?

A: We supply comprehensive regulatory support documents including specifications, COAs, manufacturing process descriptions, allergen statements, and certification copies.

Q: What's your policy on sample testing?

A: Free samples (up to 100g) ship within 24 hours. We include a COA and specification sheet. Samples come from the same production batches as commercial orders.
