Raw Material Xanthohumol 5% Powder Natural Humulus Lupulus Hops Flower Extract Raw Ingredient CAS 6754-58-1
Xanthohumol 5% Hops (Humulus lupulus) Flower Extract Powder
This is a single-botanical powder drawn from the female flowers of cultivated hops. The cones go through liquid-solid extraction, and the resulting extract is standardized to 5% xanthohumol — the compound the hop flower is best known for — measured by HPLC and confirmed by UV before any lot is released. What you receive is a fine brown-yellow 80-mesh powder, food grade, with a declared analytical value on the certificate rather than a rough ratio.

Product Highlights
The Number Is Measured
Xanthohumol is declared at 5% and actually measured by HPLC on every lot, with UV as the second check — the figure on your COA is an analytical result, not an estimate.
Taken from the Cone
Only the female hop flower goes into the extraction — the part of the plant where its resin and flavonoid fraction concentrates.
Fine, Even Powder
An 80-mesh brown-yellow powder that pours and blends cleanly — no cones to mill, no sticky oleoresin to weigh out on the line.
Planted, Not Foraged
The hops come from managed artificial planting, so raw-flower quality stays consistent and the chain from field to drum can be documented.

Formulation Features
A Named Compound, Not a Ratio
Xanthohumol (CAS 6754-58-1, C21H22O5) is named and quantified at 5% — your R&D team can calculate input levels from the certificate instead of reverse-engineering an extract ratio.
Cone Character Without the Cones
The extract keeps the flower’s naturally co-occurring resin and flavonoid fraction, so hop character arrives as a weighable powder — no milling, no cold-chain storage, no sticky resin handling.
Blends Straight into Dry Mixes
At 80 mesh the powder distributes evenly through premixes and disperses in water-based processes, which makes it workable for blending, encapsulation, and tableting alike.
Food-Grade Documentation Set
Food-grade material under HACCP and ISO 22000, with Kosher and Halal certificates available — a documentation set that fits food and supplement market entry requirements.
Applications
Brewing & Hop-Forward Beverages
A dry, portionable hop-derived input for brewers and beverage formulators who want hop character without managing cone inventory or oleoresin viscosity.
Capsules, Tablets & Stick Packs
The free-flowing powder fills capsules, compresses into tablets, and runs through stick-pack and sachet equipment, with xanthohumol content declared for label-side calculation.
Evening & Relaxation-Positioned Blends
Hops has a long history in European evening herbal infusions. This powder is a familiar base for relaxation-positioned tea blends, night-time drink concepts, and slow-evening beverage lines.
Botanical Blends & Premixes
Combines cleanly with other botanical extracts in dry premixes, and the Kosher and Halal documentation supports finished-product listings that require it.
Powdered Drink Bases
Disperses into powdered drink and instant beverage bases, contributing hop-derived botanical content and a light brown-yellow tone to the finished mix.
