pyrus communis fruit extract

Pyrus communis fruit extract is a concentrated extract derived from pear fruit, known for its fruity flavor and odor, commonly applied in cosmetics and flavoring agents.

General Material Description

Pyrus communis fruit extract is a botanical extract obtained from the fruit of Pyrus communis L., a member of the Rosaceae family. It typically appears as a powder or concentrated preparation and is recognized for its fresh fruity aroma and flavor reminiscent of ripe pear. The extract has synonyms including European pear extract and Actiphyte of pear fruit extract. The compound is referenced in controlled vocabularies such as PubChem, providing detailed chemical and biological data. Sourced from the European pear fruit, this extract is utilized primarily for its sensory characteristics and cosmetic benefits derived from natural fruit components.

Occurrence, Applicability & Potential Uses

This extract originates naturally from the European pear fruit (Pyrus communis). It is commonly applied in cosmetic formulations where it functions as a skin conditioning and skin protecting agent. Its pleasant fruity notes also make it valuable in flavor and fragrance industries, adding characteristic pear nuances to products. The use and safety of pyrus communis fruit extract are considered by regulatory frameworks including FEMA (US), which assesses flavor and fragrance ingredients to ensure safe application.

Physico-Chemical Properties Summary

Pyrus communis fruit extract exhibits a fruity odor and flavor profile characterized by juicy, green, and slightly aldehydic notes typical of fresh pear fruit. Its physical form generally allows for easy incorporation into cosmetic and flavoring formulations. The extract's natural composition supports skin conditioning effects, while its sensory properties contribute distinctive fruity nuances. Stability and solubility aspects align with typical botanical extracts, influencing its selection and concentration levels in end-use products to achieve desired organoleptic and functional outcomes.

FAQ

What is pyrus communis fruit extract and where does it come from?
Pyrus communis fruit extract is derived from the fruit of the European pear tree, scientifically named Pyrus communis L., part of the Rosaceae family. The extract captures the characteristic fruity aroma and flavor of fresh pear and is available under several synonyms such as pear extract and European pear powder. It is typically obtained by processing the pear fruit through extraction methods that concentrate its natural components.
How is pear extract used in products and what are its typical applications?
Pear extract is primarily utilized as a flavor and fragrance ingredient due to its distinct fruity, green, and juicy notes. In addition, it serves cosmetic purposes, functioning as a skin conditioning and skin protecting agent in personal care formulations. Its use extends to enhancing sensory profiles in various flavoring and fragrance compositions, contributing both aroma and potential skin benefits without significant safety concerns noted.
Are there safety regulations or standards governing the use of pyrus communis fruit extract?
The use of pyrus communis fruit extract is subject to evaluation by regulatory bodies such as FEMA (US), which provides standards for flavoring agents. Safety assessments have classified the extract without significant hazards, showing no restricted use under OSHA guidelines. Resources like the IFRA Code of Practice and RIFM safety assessments offer additional guidance regarding its safe incorporation in cosmetic and fragrance products. Comprehensive toxicological data and safety documents are accessible to ensure compliance.
