Description

Notoginsenoside Fa is a bioactive saponin compound derived from *Panax notoginseng*, a plant with a long history of use in traditional medicine. This high-purity reference standard is critical for analytical research, quality control, and the development of standardized herbal extracts and nutraceuticals. It is essential for manufacturers and research institutions in the pharmaceutical, dietary supplement, and natural product sectors requiring precise quantification and biological activity studies.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Reference Standard: Used as a certified reference material (CRM) for the identification and quantification of Notoginsenoside Fa in raw materials and finished products via HPLC, LC-MS, and other analytical methods.
• Nutraceutical & Dietary Supplement Formulation: Serves as a key marker compound for standardizing *Panax notoginseng* (Tianqi) extracts, ensuring consistent potency and efficacy in finished supplements.
• Biomedical & Pharmacological Research: Employed in *in vitro* and *in vivo* studies to investigate its potential bioactivities, such as supporting cardiovascular health, neuroprotective effects, and anti-inflammatory properties.
• Quality Control (QC) & Assurance (QA): Integral for establishing and validating analytical methods in QC laboratories for herbal drug manufacturers and third-party testing facilities.
• Cosmeceutical Development: Investigated for potential applications in skincare formulations due to the antioxidant and protective properties associated with saponin compounds.
