Varuna Bark Water Soluble Extract | Varun

Varuna Liquid Extract delivers lupeol saponin glycosides with varunol and bark tannins from Crataeva nurvala bark. Free lupeol is a lipophilic triterpene; the saponin glycosides are what an aqueous extraction obtains, and stem bark carries more than root bark or leaf. Specify stem bark on the purchase order.

FAQs

What are the primary formulation applications of Varuna Bark?
Most buyers use it in urinary-category Ayurvedic liquid preparations and kwath bases. As with any new water-soluble extract, pilot-test in your specific base before committing to a full production run.

Which carrier should I choose — water, propylene glycol or glycerin?
Water alone suits most aqueous formulations. Propylene glycol improves cold-stability and solvency in preserved systems; glycerin gives a milder, skin-friendlier carrier for leave-on formulations. PG and glycerin variants are offered at 500 g and 1 Kg, with PG also available at 5 Kg.
