Taxifolin 98% & 99% Powder
The Complete B2B Guide to Dihydroquercetin (DHQ)

From Siberian larch wood to pharmaceutical-grade flavonoid — specifications, purity grades, regional demand in Russia, Europe & the USA, and how to source responsibly.

1.What Is Taxifolin (Dihydroquercetin)?

Taxifolin — also called Dihydroquercetin (DHQ) or simply Дигидрокверцетин / Таксифолин in Russian-speaking markets — is a natural flavonoid (specifically a flavanonol) belonging to the same family as quercetin. The key structural difference: the C2–C3 double bond of quercetin is saturated in taxifolin. That single hydrogenation step makes taxifolin markedly more stable in water, heat and light, while retaining exceptional free-radical scavenging power.

2.Botanical Source & Origin

Commercial Taxifolin is extracted from the wood and bark of larch trees (Larix spp.), most importantly:

• Siberian larch (Larix sibirica) — the traditional, high-yield Russian source.
• Daurian larch (Larix gmelinii) — widely used across the Russian Far East.
• European larch (Larix decidua) — relevant for EU-sourced material.

The molecule also occurs in trace amounts in milk thistle, French maritime pine and citrus, but larch wood remains the only economically viable bulk source — which is why “Siberian larch taxifolin” is the dominant quality signal in B2B procurement. Russian brands lean heavily on Siberian and Daurian larch, while European and North American formulators increasingly ask for traceable, sustainably harvested larch — so naming the exact botanical origin on the spec sheet prevents costly back-and-forth later.

3.Chemical Identity & CAS

4.98% vs 99% — Purity Grades

We supply Taxifolin at two premium concentrations. Both are validated by HPLC; the choice depends on your finished-product positioning.

5.Antioxidant Mechanism of Action

Taxifolin's value comes from a multi-pathway mechanism rather than a single trick:

• 🔥 Free-radical scavenging — donates phenolic hydrogens to neutralize ROS and RNS.
• 🛡️ Metal chelation — binds Fe²⁺/Cu²⁺ to suppress Fenton reactions.
• 🩸 Capillary & vessel support — strengthens vascular endothelium and microcirculation.
• 🌿 Anti-inflammatory modulation — helps down-regulate oxidative stress pathways.

Because the molecule is more chemically stable than quercetin, it survives formulation, stomach acid and shelf storage far better — a decisive advantage for supplement and cosmetic brands.

8.Industrial Applications

In practice the ingredient shows up a little differently by region: 25–100 mg capsules dominate the Russian shelf, EU brands favor food-grade blends and sticks, and US laboratories plus premium supplement houses drive most of the demand for 99% reference-grade material. The spec sheet and label claims should flex accordingly — without ever changing the underlying molecule.

9.Recommended Dosage & Formulation

• Typical daily dose: 25–100 mg of Dihydroquercetin, often split into two servings with meals.
• Synergy: Frequently paired with Vitamin C for enhanced antioxidant effect.
• Format note: Slightly bitter, water-soluble powders blend well into sticks, capsules and beverage mixes.
• Stability: Store sealed at ≤ 25 °C, away from light and moisture.

10.Safety & Quality Control

Every batch ships with a full Certificate of Analysis: HPLC assay, heavy-metal panel (ICP-MS), microbial limits and solvent-residue report. Our Taxifolin is produced under HACCP/GMP-aligned controls with full traceability to the larch raw material.

11.Bulk Wholesale & MOQ

• MOQ: 1 kg for first commercial trial; free evaluation sample (20–50 g) on request.
• Grades: 90% / 95% / 98% / 99% (HPLC), customizable mesh & packaging.
• Packaging: 1 kg / 5 kg / 25 kg foil bags or fiber drums, double-sealed.
• Lead time: In-stock grades ship in 3–5 days; custom specs quoted per batch.
• Documents: CoA, MSDS, TDS, HPLC chromatogram, origin certificate.

12.Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

13.Conclusion

The most successful Taxifolin launches in 2026 share three traits: (1) a clearly stated purity grade (98% or 99%), (2) verifiable HPLC documentation, and (3) correct regional labeling — Дигидрокверцетин in Russia, Dihydroquercetin / Taxifolin in the EU and USA. Get those right and you capture demand across all three markets.
