Ophiopogonin D dosage

Ophiopogonin D is a major saponoside isolated from the plant Ophiopogon japonicus , traditionally used in Asian pharmacopoeia.

Known for its protective effects on the respiratory tract and its antioxidant properties, this molecule is attracting growing interest in the fields of nutraceuticals, phytotherapy and the formulation of food supplements.

The dosage of ophiopogonin D is essential to ensure the standardization of plant extracts , validate the quality of raw materials and ensure the consistency of finished formulations. It thus contributes to strengthening the reliability and conformity of products intended for international markets.

Analytical methods

The analysis of ophiopogonin D is carried out using high-performance liquid chromatography techniques:

• HPLC-DAD for separation and UV detection of saponins, suitable for routine controls.
• LC-MS or LC-MS/MS , which offer increased specificity and sensitivity, allowing precise quantification even in complex matrices.

These cutting-edge methods guarantee reproducible results that comply with regulatory and industrial requirements.

Affected matrices

Ophiopogonin D can be measured in different matrices:

• Standardized plant extracts from Ophiopogon japonicus
• Dried plant powders
• Food supplements in capsules, tablets or liquid solutions
• Complex nutraceutical formulations integrating several plant active ingredients

Industrial applications

• Nutraceuticals: formulation and standardization of supplements intended for respiratory well-being.
• Phytotherapy: promotion of traditional preparations based on ophiopogon.
• Quality control: batch monitoring, validation of raw materials and conformity of finished products.
• Research and development: study of the stability and biological activity of saponins.

Additional analyses

The dosage of ophiopogonin D can be combined with other analyses of saponosides and bioactive compounds for a global evaluation:

• Diosgenin dosage
• Glycyrrhizin dosage
• Determination of total polyphenols

This broader approach allows us to better characterize the synergy between the different plant active ingredients and to strengthen the scientific value of the extracts.

Regulations and quality issues

The implementation of reliable and standardized analyses for ophiopogonin D is essential in a demanding regulatory context. The standardization of plant extracts is an essential step to ensure their compliance with the quality, traceability, and safety standards expected in the nutraceutical and pharmaceutical sectors.
