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. |
