Description
White kidney bean extract is derived from common beans (Phaseolus vulgaris) and is presented as an off-white to cream-colored powder. Its primary active component is an alpha-amylase inhibitor, which reduces the activity of the alpha-amylase enzyme. This property allows for a reduction in the absorption of starchy carbohydrates from food. The product is supplied with specifications of 10:1, phaseolin ≥2%, and α-amylase inhibitor ≥1000 u/g. The extract exhibits good stability and can be incorporated into various finished product forms. For purchasers, the standardization of active components, storage stability, and versatility in different product formats are key considerations.
Applications
