Scopoletin (coumarin) dosage

Scopoletin is a natural coumarin found in many tropical medicinal plants, including Morinda citrifolia (noni), but also in species such as angelica and feverfew. Known for its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, hypotensive, and immunomodulatory properties, it is widely studied in the fields of phytotherapy and nutraceuticals.

Interest in scopoletin dosage

Scopoletin dosage is essential for:

• Standardize botanical extracts and ensure consistent quality from batch to batch.
• Support wellness claims and strengthen the scientific credibility of nutraceutical products.
• Monitor regulatory compliance of food supplements and functional drinks.
• Ensure the traceability of plant-based raw materials used in formulations.

Analytical methods

The analysis of scopoletin is based on robust and sensitive chromatographic methods:

• HPLC-DAD (UV-Vis detection): suitable for quantifying scopoletin in crude extracts or processed products.
• LC-MS/MS: reference method for confirming compound identity and quantifying trace amounts in complex matrices.

These approaches guarantee reliable quantification, even in the presence of other plant metabolites.

Analyzed matrices

Scopoletin can be measured in various plant matrices and processed products, including:

• Noni extracts ( Morinda citrifolia ).
• Standardized vegetable powders.
• Functional or nutraceutical drinks.
• Food supplements based on coumarins.

Industrial applications

Scopoletin dosage finds applications in several areas:

• Nutraceutical: formulation of supplements for vitality, blood pressure regulation and cellular protection.
• Cosmetics: integration into antioxidant and soothing treatments.
• Food industry: control of functional drinks and enriched products.
• Research and development: identification of phytomolecular markers for the standardization of medicinal plants.
