Product Name: | Red yest rice powder |
Part used: | Seed |
Specification: | Monacolin K 0.2%-5% |
Appearance: | Red Powder |
Red yeast rice flour is a traditional Chinese medicine and food. It is made from early rice by fermentation and processing. It has been used in China for thousands of years.
Lactone form of Monacolin-k is just a prodrug (molecular structure as shown in Figure ①), which is inactive by itself and needs to be hydrolyzed by carboxyesterase produced by the human body to change its structure and become active acid form form Monacolin-k (molecular structure as shown in Figure ②). The acid form Monacolin-k (molecular structure in figure. ②) was stronger than the acid form Monacolin-k. In the functional Monacolin-k produced by our company, the acid form monacolin-K content reaches more than 60%, which is in a high content level.
Exist or not for acid form of Monacolin-k is also the key to identify whether the product is a functional monascus. General fermentation red yeast rice contains a certain proportion of acid form of Monacolin-k, synthetic lovastatin, which are generally lactone form of Monacolin-K We can test it by HPLC
Happylife can offer high content of Acid form of Monacolin K, which is more easy to be absorb by human body, our red yeast rice can up to 60% of Acid form of Monacolink①. the high content of acid form of Monacolink ①can be prove that is nature ferementation of red yeast rice , usually, the compound of Monacolink K can be show high content of lactone form of Monacolink②. it also can be know by HPLC test.
welcome to inquiry for us for red yeast rice powder , which has a high market share in the middle & elder people market
It is widely used in the food industry, in meat products, beverages, baking and other aspects have been more and more widely used, natural low-cost red colorant. In addition to being a red colorant, it also acts as a preservative and flavoring agent.
