- Doppelte Funktionalität: Kombiniert therapeutischen Wert (entzündungshemmend, Leberunterstützung) mit sensorischem Wert (Süßung) und bietet ein breites Anwendungspotenzial.
4. Formulation Guidelines
- Integration Phase: Aufgrund seiner begrenzten Löslichkeit in kaltem Wasser wird empfohlen, das Pulver vor der Einarbeitung in die Endformulierung in heißem Wasser oder verdünntem Ethanol vorzulösen oder zu dispergieren.
- pH Compatibility: Stabil über einen weiten Bereich, kann aber in leicht sauren Formulierungen optimal wirken.
- Bevorzugte Darreichungsform: Ideal für feste Getränke, Tabletten, Kapseln und flüssige Sirupe, die eine Geschmacksmaskierung erfordern.

8. Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is the main difference between the 20% Glycyrrhizic Acid Powder and 5% Licorice Extract?
A: The 20% Glycyrrhizic Acid Powder offers higher purity and more concentrated active content, used for formulas requiring stronger therapeutic action or less volume; the 5% extract is a more general-purpose, cost-effective base ingredient.
Q2: Why is the powder brown?
A: The brown color is due to the natural pigments and compounds retained during the concentration of the licorice extract. This does not impact the efficacy or safety of the Glycyrrhizic Acid.
Q3: Is the Glycyrrhizic Acid Powder easy to dissolve in liquid formulations?
A: It is slightly soluble in cold water. For optimal dissolution in liquid formulas, pre-dissolving it in warm or hot water is strongly recommended.
