Description

Galegine is a natural alkaloid extracted from Galega officinalis , a medicinal plant known for its hypoglycemic effect. Historically, galegine inspired the development of metformin, a standard medication for type 2 diabetes. In the context of dietary supplements and herbal preparations, galegine dosage is essential for:

  • Verify the authenticity and purity of your extracts;
  • Standardize products with a precise content;
  • Ensuring efficiency and regulatory security;
  • To ensure a stable content in finished products;
  • To meet European regulatory requirements.

Recommended analytical methods

  • High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC): HPLC with UV detection enables reliable analysis in relatively simple matrices (powders, extracts). It guarantees satisfactory accuracy for quality control and routine testing.
  • LC-MS / LC-MS/MS: For complex extracts or low concentrations, LC-MS offers robust identification and quantification , even in the presence of interfering substances. This method allows for higher detection limits, essential in complex formulations.

Examples of matrices

  • Standardized extracts of Galega officinalis (powders, tinctures);
  • Dietary supplements: capsules, tablets, solutions;
  • Nutraceutical formulations enriched with alkaloids;
  • Raw plant matrices requiring rigorous traceability.

Why this dosage is essential

  • Safety and efficacy:
    As galegine is an active substance, its concentration must be measured precisely to avoid any risk of overdose and to guarantee the efficacy of the products.
  • Regulatory compliance
    Although natural, the alkaloid is subject to European requirements regarding the safety of supplements and claims.
  • Product quality:
    Batch traceability, reproducibility of effects and loyalty to the consumer depend on precise analyses.
  • Research & development:
    Laboratories, brands and formulators need reliable data to improve their formulations or to substantiate clinical or quality claims.
