INTRODUCTION
Curcumin, a compound found in turmeric, is known for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Introducing 95% curcumin in both human and animal applications involves understanding its high potency, ensuring effective delivery and absorption, and adhering to regulatory and safety standards. For humans, this involves careful supplement formulation and dosage adjustments, while for animal feed, it requires proper integration, dosage control, and ongoing research to ensure efficacy and safety.
Manufacture
The manufacturing process involves several key steps:
Extraction from the dried rhizomes of Curcuma longa (turmeric) using organic solvents like ethanol or acetone. Evaporation: to remove the solvent to make sure that the final product has minimal solvent residues Purification, Drying and Packaging.

APPLICATIONS
Curcumin is utilized in the life sciences segment in the following ways:
| Human Applications |
|---|
| Supplementation: To manage inflammation, support joint health, and potentially improve cognitive function. Curcumin is poorly absorbed on its own, so many supplements include other compounds like piperine (black pepper extract) to enhance its bioavailability. |
| Dietary Inclusion: Incorporating turmeric into your diet can provide curcumin but in lower concentrations. It’s commonly used in cooking, especially in curries and other spice blends. |
| Therapeutic Uses: Research is ongoing into curcumin’s role in treating or managing chronic diseases like arthritis, cardiovascular diseases, and even cancer, by modulating inflammatory pathways and oxidative stress. |
| Feed Applications |
|---|
| Animal Feed Supplement: To improve health and growth in livestock, help in reducing inflammation, oxidative stress, and even enhance the immune response. |
| Health Benefits for Animals: To support joint health, improve skin and coat condition , also, potentially aid in digestive health. Added in feed for poultry, cattle, and pets like dogs and cats. |
| Dosage and Safety: The amount used in animal feed needs to be carefully controlled. Proper dosing is crucial and should be determined based on research and regulatory guidelines. |

TensyraTM N-10 (Octoxinol 10; tert-octyl phenyl ethoxylate) is a non-ionic surfactant known for its excellent solubilizing and membrane-permeabilizing properties. It features a hydrophilic polyethylene oxide chain paired with a lipophilic aromatic hydrocarbon group.It readily breaks down biological membranes to lyse cells, solubilize proteins, and permeabilize cell membranes for assays.
Teprenone (Geranylgeranylacetone, GGA) is a mixture of the all-trans and mono-cis isomers of 6,10,14,18-tetramethyl-5,9,13,17-nonadecatetraen-2-one (in a weight ratio of 3:2). It is an acyclic isoprenoid compound with a structure like retinoids and is widely used for the treatment of gastrointestinal ulcers.
Ciclopirox Olamine (CPO) is the N-oxide of a 2 -hydroxy pyridine derivative that carries antifungal, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory properties. It is composed of 6-cyclohexyl-1-hydroxy-4-methyl-2(1H)-pyridone combined with 2 aminoethanol (olamine) in a 1:1 ratio.
N,N-Dimethylglycine sodium salt (DMG Na) is the sodium salt form of N,N-dimethylglycine, a tertiary amino acid derivative is white to off white crystalline solid, freely soluble in water.
Blown Castor Oil (15-17 Poise) is a modified grade of Castor oil. The “15-17 Poise” specification refers to its viscosity range, indicating a medium-viscosity blown oil suitable for industrial applications requiring improved body, tackiness, and elasticity compared to regular castor oil.
Dimethylaminoethanol (DMAE) is a is a tertiary amine that is ethanolamine having two N-methyl substituents. It is clear & colourless to pale yellow liquid with ammoniacal odor. DMAE is stable at room temperature and is completely miscible with water as well as organic solvents such as alcohols and ethers. It decomposes at high temperatures. It is a versatile chemical intermediate primarily used as a curing agent for polyurethane foams and epoxy resins.
1,4,7-Trimethyl-1,4,7-triazonane (Me₃TACN) is a valuable macrocyclic tridentate ligand derived from 1,4,7-triazacyclononane. In Me₃TACN, each nitrogen atom is substituted with a methyl group, which significantly modifies its steric and electronic properties. Me₃TACN is widely used as a ligand in coordination chemistry due to its ability to form stable complexes with transition metals such as Cu, Ni, Fe, Mn, and Zn.
Adenosine is a naturally occurring purine nucleoside composed of adenine and ribose, present in all living cells. It plays a vital role in biochemical processes such as energy transfer (ATP/ADP), signal transduction, and regulation of physiological functions, and is widely used in pharmaceutical applications.
Methyl-2-Methoxy-5-Sulfamoyl Benzoate (MSMB) is a sulfur containing organic building block acting as a chemical intermediate. MSMB contains ester and sulfamoyl functional groups, which make it useful as a pharmaceutical and fine-chemical intermediate.
