Bulk Biochanin A Supplier (CAS 491-80-5) – ≥98% HPLC, EU Supply
Biochanin A is a light yellow to apricot isoflavone powder supplied for cosmetic and personal-care formulation development. It is suited to manufacturers evaluating leave-on facial, scalp and hair-care products in which solubility, dispersion and physical stability can be appropriately controlled.
Who This Product Is For
| Customer type | Typical requirement |
|---|---|
| Cosmetic and personal-care manufacturers | Biochanin A for leave-on creams, serums and scalp products |
| Hair- and scalp-care developers | Ingredient evaluation for lotions, serums and related formulations |
| Contract manufacturers and formulation teams | Prototype development, compatibility testing and scale-up assessment |
| Ingredient distributors | Commercial supply for professional formulation customers |

Technical & Formulation Considerations
| Aqueous solubility | Biochanin A is poorly water-soluble. Direct addition to the water phase of a clear product is unlikely to provide a robust solution without a validated delivery system. |
|---|---|
| Oil-phase behavior | Oil-phase solubility should not be assumed. Formulators should assess precipitation and recrystallization after cooling and during storage. |
| Formulation options | Potential approaches include validated solvent-assisted systems, emulsions, controlled suspensions and specialized carrier systems. |
| Physical stability | Evaluate particle growth, crystallization, sedimentation and content uniformity in the complete formulation, including after temperature cycling. |
| Color impact | The powder’s light yellow to apricot color may influence white creams or transparent serums and should be assessed at prototype scale. |
Applications
| Finished-product format | Development focus |
|---|---|
| Leave-on facial creams and emulsions | Controlled incorporation within a validated solvent, lipid or surfactant environment |
| Facial serums | Solvent-assisted or dispersed formats with precipitation and clarity testing |
| Scalp serums and lotions | Uniform delivery, particle control and long-term physical stability |
| Opaque creams and controlled suspensions | Particle-size, sedimentation, skin-feel and content-uniformity management |
