Extract of Bamboo Leaves Flavonoids is a newly developed phytoflavonoid preparation with excellent biological effects of anti-free radical, antioxidant, anti-aging, anti-bacterial, anti-virus, cardiovascular protection, and prevention of degenerative diseases. Ebl has emerged in the field of natural functional food additives and health care products in recent years due to its rich raw material source, clear functional factors, good food safety, stable formulation quality and fresh and sweet bamboo flavor.

Bamboo leaf flavonoids are of great significance to human health and longevity. The Japanese scientific and technological community believes that the structure of bamboo leaf flavonoids is similar to human hemoglobin and can be made into an injection to be injected directly into a vein to improve the efficacy of the product.

Research shows that the active ingredients of bamboo leaf extract include flavonoids, phenolic ketones, anthraquinones, lactones, polysaccharides, amino acids, trace elements, etc., which have excellent anti-free radical, antioxidant, anti-aging, anti-fatigue, hypolipidemic, cardiovascular disease prevention, liver protection, capillary dilation, microcirculation, brain activation, memory promotion, sleep improvement, anti-cancer, skin beautification and other effects. According to related research, in the "2nd International Conference on Natural Antioxidants", several scholars at home and abroad reported on the effects of natural bioflavonoids on bone marrow toxicity and immune function suppression caused by anticancer drugs, and on microcirculation, platelet function and improvement of myocardial bleeding in patients with coronary heart disease.

Bamboo leaf extract has good process characteristics, easily soluble in hot water and low concentrations of alcohols, with high water and thermal stability, good processing adaptability, and high antioxidant stability, without tea polyphenol-like pro-oxidant effects even when local concentrations are greatly exceeded. Meanwhile, bamboo leaf extract has a typical bamboo leaf fragrance, refreshing and pleasant, slightly bitter and slightly sweet. Bamboo leaf extract can be widely used in medicine, food, anti-aging products and beauty cosmetics, feed and other fields.

Bamboo leaf preservative has broad-spectrum antibacterial properties, bamboo leaf preservative has strong inhibitory effect on bacteria, mold and yeast. Among them, it has stronger inhibitory effect on bacteria, such as Salmonella typhi, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus deformans and Bacillus thuringiensis, and it is enhanced with the extension of the action time Chemicalbook and the increase of the concentration of the used extract, but too long time is not conducive to food processing operation, generally 3h can achieve The effect was more desirable after 3 h. The antimicrobial effect of bamboo preservative is stable to high temperature and high pressure, so the inhibition effect of bamboo extract can be enhanced under low alkaline environment and after higher treatment temperature, but the effect on mold and yeast is relatively poor.

Bamboo leaf extract also has antiseptic effect, the higher the concentration of using bamboo leaf extract, the better the antibacterial effect and the higher the antibacterial rate, the longer the action time at the same concentration, the higher the antibacterial rate. But too long time is not conducive to food processing operation, generally 3h can achieve more ideal effect.
With its rich raw material source, clear functional factors, good edible safety, efficient and stable preparation quality and fresh and sweet bamboo flavor, bamboo leaf extract has emerged in the field of natural functional food and pharmaceutical health products in recent years.
