Explore our highly purified botanical extracts optimized for maximum bioavailability and targeted functional performance.
Hydroxytyrosol (HT), chemically recognized as 4-(2-hydroxyethyl)benzene-1,2-diol, is a powerful phenylethanoid compound primarily derived from the olive tree (Olea europaea). Known for having one of the highest radical scavenging capabilities of any natural compound, Hydroxytyrosol is highly valued by brand managers and R&D scientists globally. It possesses an Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC value of approximately 45,000 μmol TE/g), which is significantly higher than that of Coenzyme Q10, Resveratrol, and Vitamin C.
Its small molecular weight and amphiphilic nature allow Hydroxytyrosol to be both water- and fat-soluble. This unique chemical profile enables high bioavailability, allowing it to easily cross cellular membranes and the blood-brain barrier. As a result, it helps protect lipids, proteins, and DNA from oxidative stress.
For procurement teams, sourcing high-purity Hydroxytyrosol requires reliable supply chains and strict chemical testing. This is where professional Chinese extraction companies offer significant technical expertise and efficiency.
| Antioxidant Compound | ORAC Value (μmol TE/g) | Bioavailability Profile | Primary Solubilities |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hydroxytyrosol | ~45,000 | High (Amphiphilic) | Water & Lipid Soluble |
| Resveratrol | ~25,000 | Moderate | Lipid Soluble |
| Coenzyme Q10 | ~11,000 | Low (Requires Lipids) | Lipid Soluble |
| Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid) | ~3,700 | Rapidly Excreted | Water Soluble |
China's botanical extraction industry combines large-scale agriculture, modern chemical engineering, and robust supply chain integration.
Chinese manufacturers secure direct access to large-scale olive cultivation areas in provinces like Shaanxi, Gansu, and Sichuan. This vertical integration helps minimize raw material cost fluctuations.
Using eco-friendly, solvent-free extraction methods—including low-temperature enzymatic hydrolysis and membrane filtration—we ensure high-purity yields while preserving active ingredients.
Modern Chinese facilities operate under strict cGMP systems. Product lines carry international quality certifications such as ISO 9001, HACCP, Kosher, Halal, and organic verifications.
Addressing formulation challenges to deliver functional benefits in consumer end-products.
Preventing oxidation and discoloration in cosmetics and liquid supplements. We provide micronized and encapsulated Hydroxytyrosol to help maintain stability in diverse pH and temperature environments.
We offer tailored compound matrices, including synergistic combinations like Hydroxytyrosol with Oleuropein, Resveratrol, or EGCG. This allows manufacturers to customize active ingredient ratios to meet specific health targets.
Resolving solubility limitations in functional beverages. Our specialized, water-soluble Hydroxytyrosol powder dissolves clearly without leaving sediments or affecting taste profiles.
How global brands integrate Hydroxytyrosol into key commercial segments.
Hydroxytyrosol targets skin aging by neutralizing free radicals, reducing UV-induced lipid peroxidation, and inhibiting intracellular melanin production.
Supported by European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) scientific opinions, daily consumption of 5mg of Hydroxytyrosol and its derivatives helps protect blood lipids from oxidative damage.
In addition to its health benefits, Hydroxytyrosol serves as a natural antioxidant and preservative, helping extend the shelf-life of functional foods.
Andy Biotech is a leading manufacturer and supplier of premium-quality, scientifically-validated plant extracts for the food, beverage, nutraceutical, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries. Founded on a commitment to purity, potency, and innovation, we bridge the gap between nature's potential and your product development goals.

Our state-of-the-art extraction facilities employ advanced technologies, including supercritical solvent and water-based methods, to preserve the full spectrum of bioactive compounds without compromising on environmental responsibility.
Quality and safety are non-negotiable. Every batch undergoes rigorous testing in our in-house laboratories, equipped with HPLC, GC-MS, and other advanced analytical instruments. We guarantee compliance with stringent international standards, including ISO, NSF, cGMP, and related certifications. Our commitment to transparency means you receive comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (CoA) for every product, ensuring traceability and peace of mind.
It's one thing to just meet the regulations when providing ingredients, but when an ingredient supplier exceeds those standards and imposes even higher ones in its products, that is a sign of a company that cares. Andy Biotech takes extra steps to ensure that our independent third-party laboratory-tested ingredients meet our standards as well as your own.
Our extensive portfolio features a wide range of standardized extracts, ratio extracts, and custom blends tailored to specific formulations. Whether you need Echinacea for immune support, Turmeric with high curcuminoid content, or innovative botanical blends for skincare, our technical team works closely with you to deliver exactly what your product requires. Andy Biotech provides high-quality Ginkgo Biloba Extract, Lycopene Tomato Extract, Lutein Marigold Extract, Aloe Vera Gel Freeze Dried powder, Aloe Vera Extract, and other natural ingredients.
Andy was born in a small village close to the Hanjiang River in Hanzhong, Shaanxi province, China. Thirty years ago, when she was still a little child, she caught a cold, but medical services were not available unless the family crossed over high mountains to find a hospital. Thus, Andy's grandfather first used Echinacea leaves soaked in water for her treatment, then he dug Echinacea root and shredded it into pulp and squeezed the liquid for Andy to drink one spoon every two hours. Andy recovered after this treatment.
As a child, Andy watched her grandfather harness the healing power of plants in his humble garden. His ancient herbal remedies were not just treatments; they were magic. That early wonder blossomed into a profound passion for plant extracts and a deep respect for nature's wisdom. From that time on, little Andy swore that she would help to spread all herbs all over the world to give benefit to more people.
This personal journey is the heart of Andy Biotech. It's why we are dedicated to researching and delivering the purest, most effective botanical solutions for modern wellness. Andy's lifelong vow is to honor that tradition by innovating for a healthier future, empowering lives through the timeless power of plants.
We hold verified regulatory certifications to ensure smooth compliance and international custom clearance for global markets.
