Faradiol dosage

Faradiol (CAS No. 30362-92-8) is a naturally occurring pentacyclic triterpene Calendula officinalis (marigold). It is recognized for its anti-inflammatory, healing, and soothing properties , which are highly sought after in the cosmetic and nutraceutical industries .

Faradiol analysis allows for the quantification of active ingredient content in plant extracts, oils, or cosmetic formulations. This analysis is essential to guarantee the quality, stability, and conformity of raw materials used in natural or plant-based products.

Analytical methods: HPLC and LC-MS

Faradiol analysis is performed using high-precision chromatographic techniques :

• HPLC (high-performance liquid chromatography) : used to separate and quantify triterpenes in complex plant extracts.
• LC-MS (liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry) : allows specific and sensitive detection of faradiol, even at low concentrations, and precise identification of active compounds.

These methods ensure reliable and reproducible quantification , in accordance with the analytical standards applied in cosmetics and nutraceuticals.

Industrial and scientific applications

Faradiol assays are relevant to several sectors:

• Natural cosmetics : quality control of creams, oils and balms containing extracts of calendula or other plants rich in triterpenes.
• Nutraceuticals : verification of the concentration of bioactive compounds in plant extracts or food supplements.
• Research and development : study of the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant potential of faradiol and its derivatives.
• Phytotherapy : standardization of calendula-based preparations to ensure the reproducibility of therapeutic effects.

This service can be complemented by the measurement of β-amyrin or lupeol , two other triterpenes of interest for the complete characterization of plant extracts.

Affected matrices

Our partner laboratories perform faradiol assays on numerous matrices:

• Dry or fluid extracts of Calendula officinalis
• Vegetable oils and macerates
• Creams, lotions, balms and other cosmetic formulations
• Plant powders and natural raw materials

Depending on the complexity of the matrix, the analytical protocol may include a preparation step by liquid-solid extraction or chromatographic purification before the final analysis.
