Free Saw Palmetto Analysis & Profiling Program
Valensa International is now offering free analysis and product profiling to nutraceutical producers interested in ensuring the quality of the saw palmetto extract they use. The analysis will be done on saw palmetto extracts at Valensa’s laboratories in Eustis, FL, and the profiling will be based on the U.S. Pharmacopeia’s (USP) monograph on saw palmetto extract. Tests for saw palmetto quality have often been based on total fatty acid content, which does not give an accurate assessment of the identity and quality of the extract. The method used by Valensa is the USP monograph published standard for total fatty acids, fatty acid profile, total fatty alcohols and phytosterol levels. It also provides the ratio of the concentration of lauric acid to the concentration of constituent fatty acids, giving what is essentially a “genuine saw palmetto fingerprint.” According to the company, the motivation behind the program is to protect the image of saw palmetto in the minds of consumers and to ensure that bogus, ineffective or adulterated products do not reach the marketplace.
