Mulberry Leaf Extract is a standardized botanical ingredient derived from Morus alba, primarily processed via water or ethanol extraction to isolate bioactive compounds like 1-deoxynojirimycin (DNJ). The core active component, DNJ, has the molecular formula C9H19NO5 and CAS number 27680-48-6. This extract serves as a functional raw material in nutraceuticals.
Storage requires cool, dry conditions below 25°C to prevent degradation. While generally safe, clinical use should be monitored for potential interactions with hypoglycemic medications. Industrial handling mandates standard PPE to avoid respiratory irritation during powder processing.
