Nirgundi (Vitex negundo) Herbal Extraction Plant
- Raw Material Selection: High-quality Nirgundi leaves and stems are carefully sourced from certified herbal cultivators. Nirgundi is known for its potent anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and antioxidant properties, primarily attributed to compounds like flavonoids, iridoid glycosides, and alkaloids.
- Cleaning and Preparation: The collected Nirgundi plant material is washed thoroughly to remove impurities and contaminants. It is then shade-dried to preserve its delicate bioactive compounds and to reduce moisture content to optimal levels.
- Extraction Process: The powdered Nirgundi is processed using hydro-alcoholic extraction in closed-loop stainless steel reactors. The temperature and solvent ratio are carefully controlled to extract the full spectrum of therapeutic compounds.
- Filtration and Concentration: The extract is filtered to remove solid residues. The filtrate is concentrated under vacuum using rotary evaporators or falling film evaporators to obtain a semi-solid or liquid extract rich in active principles.
- Standardization: The final extract is standardized for key active constituents such as flavonoids and alkaloids, ensuring batch-to-batch consistency for therapeutic applications.
- Packaging and Storage: The standardized extract is packed in airtight, food-grade HDPE drums or laminated pouches under hygienic conditions and stored in a cool, dry, and dark environment to maintain efficacy and shelf life.
