Gentiana Prostrata Extract is an extract of the plant, Gentiana Prostrata, Gentianaceae | [Chemical Properties]
The roots contain strongly bitter glycosides, the main component of which is gentiopicrin (C16 H20O9), which accounts for about 2% in fresh roots. After drying or fermentation, most of this disappears, but a very bitter gentioside (gentiamarin, not present in fresh roots) is formed. It also contains gentisic acid, sucrose, lipids, pectin, and enzymes. | [Definition]
