Product Specification

High-Concentration Leech Extract (Hirudo nipponica) - Freeze-Dried Powder, 2000 AT-U per Vial for Stable, Potent Skincare & Wellness Formulations

High-Concentration Lyophilized Leech Extract (Hirudo nipponica), 2000 AT-U / Vial

Product Form: Lyophilized Powder in Vial | Research & Formulation Grade

I. Product Overview

This High-Concentration Lyophilized Leech Extract provides a potent and precisely standardized unit dose for demanding research and development. Each vial is guaranteed to contain 2,000 Anti-Thrombin Units (AT-U) of natural hirudin activity, derived exclusively from Hirudo nipponica. Presented in a stable, freeze-dried form, this product is engineered for reliable performance in critical applications. To ensure maximum long-term stability and preserve the full bioactivity of this concentrated peptide, continuous storage at -20°C or below is required.

III. Core Advantages

1. Substantial & Standardized Potency
With 2,000 AT-U per vial, this product delivers a significant dose of bioactive hirudin, ideal for experiments and formulations that require a high level of activity without the need to handle and process large amounts of raw or intermediate materials. The pre-measured format ensures dosing accuracy.

2. Designed for Stability and Reproducibility
The mandatory -20°C storage condition is integral to the product design, safeguarding the conformational integrity and activity of the hirudin peptides over extended periods. This guarantees that the potency stated on the label is reliably maintained, leading to highly reproducible experimental and formulation results.

3. Efficiency in Research and Development
This ready-to-use unit eliminates the time, potential error, and material loss associated with weighing and extracting from bulk powders. It streamlines workflows in cell-based assays, enzyme inhibition studies, and pilot-scale formulation, allowing scientists to focus on core research objectives.

4. Traceable Quality from Source
Produced within Min Kang Bio's fully controlled vertical system—from our proprietary GAP breeding base to GMP-guided processing—every batch offers guaranteed authenticity, purity, and complete traceability.

IV. Target Applications

• Cell Culture & In-Vitro Assays: Provides a consistent, high-potency additive for studies on thrombin-mediated cellular processes, endothelial cell function, or inflammation models.

• Biochemical & Enzymology Research: Ideal as a potent, specific inhibitor in kinetic studies of serine proteases or in the development of related bioassays.

• Formulation Prototyping for Topicals/Gels: Serves as an excellent high-activity ingredient for developing concentrated serums, wound care gels, or transdermal delivery systems.

• Reference Material: Suitable as a well-defined, high-potency standard for analytical method development or quality control procedures.

V. Packaging, Storage & Handling

• Primary Packaging: Lyophilized powder in a 5 mL or 10 mL sterile glass vial, sealed with a rubber stopper and aluminum seal.

• Storage Condition (Mandatory): Must be stored at -20°C ± 3°C or below immediately upon receipt. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. For long-term storage over 2 years, -80°C is recommended.

• Reconstitution: Use aseptic technique. Reconstitute with an appropriate volume of cold, sterile solvent (e.g., 0.9% saline or specified buffer) by gently swirling. Do not vortex vigorously.

• Shelf Life: 36 months from the date of manufacture when stored continuously at -20°C or colder.

VI. Company Profile: The Foundation for Reliable Bioactives

The ability to consistently produce this stable, high-potency 2000 AT-U extract stems from the integrated expertise of Jingzhou Min Kang Biotechnology Co., Ltd., the global leader in Hirudo nipponica biotechnology.

• Unmatched Scale and Control: We operate the world's largest GAP-certified industrial breeding base for Hirudo nipponica. This scale ensures a sustainable, high-quality supply of raw materials, which is the fundamental first step in producing standardized, potent extracts.

• Proprietary Stabilization Science: Achieving reliable stability for a 2000 AT-U concentrate requires specialized knowledge. Our patented lyophilization protocol is optimized to protect the delicate structure of hirudin during the freeze-drying process and throughout its frozen shelf life, ensuring the activity you measure is the activity we guarantee.

• Commitment to Advancing Science: As a National High-Tech Enterprise, we are dedicated to providing the research and industrial communities with innovative, high-quality tools that enable discovery and development.
