Pure Astaxanthin Powder – Premium Natural Antioxidant for Your Formulations
You can get pure astaxanthin powder from Avans NutriHealth. Using cutting edge supercritical CO2 technology, we get our natural keto-carotenoid from Haematococcus pluvialis microalgae. This deep red powder comes in standardised amounts of 3% to 5%. It contains the highly bioactive 3S, 3'S stereoisomer, which is 6,000 times stronger as an antioxidant than Vitamin C. Our group enterprise's integrated manufacturing potential backs up the quality you get with certifications like ISO, USDA, HACCP, FSSC22000, and HALAL. Our special microencapsulation keeps the fragile polyene chain from breaking down. This makes sure that the molecules stay as intact as possible and that your commercial products last for 24 to 36 months.

FAQ
Q: What distinguishes natural powder from synthetic?
A: Haematococcus pluvialis powder includes just the biologically active 3S, 3'S isomer. Synthetic petrochemical compounds have 25% of this active form, reducing human nutrition bioefficacy.
Q: Why is the concentration 3-5% instead of 100%?
A: Air rapidly oxidises crystalline astaxanthin. Oleoresin is microencapsulated in a protective matrix to provide a stable powder with 24-36 month shelf life. This structure keeps your products effective.
Q: Does this powder dissolve in water?
A: Native astaxanthin is lipophilic. For beverages, Cold Water Dispersible (CWD) technology emulsifies the substance into nanospheres for homogeneous dispersion without separation.
Q: How does extraction method impact quality?
A: We use solvent-free supercritical CO2 extraction at lower temperatures. This removes thermal degradation and residual hazards from ethanol or acetone procedures, improving product quality.
Q: What's the recommended dosage?
A: For humans, clinical studies recommend 4-12mg daily. Use powder concentration to calculate inclusion rate—200mg of 3% powder yields 6mg active ingredient.
Q: Is this component stable in my formula?
A: Yes. Our microencapsulation prevents oxidation. Keep cold, dry, and out of direct light for best stability.
