punica granatum fruit extract

Punica granatum fruit extract is derived from pomegranate fruit and is used for its fruity flavor and skin conditioning properties in cosmetics and flavoring.

General Material Description

Punica granatum fruit extract is a natural botanical preparation obtained from the fruit of the pomegranate tree (Punica granatum L., Punicaceae). This extract presents a fruity aroma and flavor characteristic of pomegranate, offering versatility in cosmetic and flavoring formulations. Known by several synonyms including amiporine ER and punica florida fruit extract, it is widely utilized for its sensory qualities. The extract is sourced directly from pomegranate fruits, making it a sustainable and plant-based ingredient. Additional chemical and botanical data for this material can be found under its PubChem entry.

Occurrence, Applicability & Potential Uses

Punica granatum fruit extract occurs naturally in the fruit of the pomegranate, a species valued for its bioactive compounds. It is applied primarily in cosmetic products for skin conditioning due to its soothing and moisturizing effects. In flavor applications, it contributes a distinctive fruity note reminiscent of fresh pomegranate. The extract's use and safety are regulated under REACH (EU), ensuring compliance with standards for cosmetic and flavor agents. Its botanical origin and organoleptic profile support its integration in personal care and flavor formulations.

Physico-Chemical Properties Summary

This extract features a pronounced fruity odor and flavor intrinsic to pomegranate, which influences its inclusion in formulations aimed at delivering natural sensory appeal. Its physical state is typically a concentrated liquid or semi-liquid derived from aqueous or solvent extraction of the fresh fruit. Chemical constituents include diverse organic compounds such as polyphenols that contribute to stability and skin interaction. The absence of classification for hazards under OSHA HCS indicates a favorable safety profile for handling and formulation, while usage levels are typically controlled to avoid use as fragrance. These properties make it suitable for incorporation in cosmetic products and flavor systems requiring natural fruity notes.

FAQ

What is punica granatum fruit extract and what are its main uses?
Punica granatum fruit extract is a natural ingredient derived from the fruit of the pomegranate tree, Punica granatum L. It is primarily used in cosmetic products for skin conditioning and as a flavoring agent due to its characteristic fruity aroma and taste. The extract is valued for providing sensory qualities typical of pomegranate and is utilized in formulations that benefit from its natural origin.
Where does punica granatum fruit extract come from and how is it applied in industry?
The extract is obtained from the fruit of the pomegranate, a tree species native to the Mediterranean region and cultivated worldwide. Industrial production involves extracting the fruit's bioactive components through solvent or aqueous methods, resulting in a concentrated material. It is then applied in cosmetics for skin conditioning effects and in foods and beverages as a flavor enhancer. Regulatory frameworks like REACH (EU) govern its safe usage in these sectors.
What safety standards and regulations apply to punica granatum fruit extract?
Punica granatum fruit extract is subject to safety evaluation under regulatory systems such as REACH (European Union) for chemical safety. Current data indicate no classifications for hazards under OSHA HCS (US), suggesting low toxicity. Usage recommendations specify moderate levels, excluding fragrance applications. Safety information is supported by toxicology data accessible through databases like EPA ACToR and NIH resources. Compliance with these standards ensures responsible use in cosmetic and flavor formulations.
