2. Physical & Chemical Properties

Test Item Standard Specification
Appearance White fine lyophilized crystalline powder
Odor Odorless
Solubility Soluble in DMSO, ethanol, methanol; slightly soluble in glycerin; nearly insoluble in pure water, mineral oil, acetone; requires organic carrier for aqueous formulation
pH (0.1% ethanol dispersion) 4.0 ~ 6.0
Thermal Operation Rule Add below 40℃ during formulation; avoid sustained heating over 55℃
Stability Stable under vacuum, dark, weak acid/neutral storage; incompatible with strong alkali, high-concentration oxidants, long-term UV irradiation; tyrosine residue prone to photo-oxidation
Hygroscopicity Slightly hygroscopic, nitrogen-filled vacuum packaging required

4. Core Biological Mechanism & Efficacy

  1. Potent HGF/c-Met Pathway Agonist (Core Neuroprotective Mechanism)
    Binds and stabilizes hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), enhances HGF activation of c-Met receptor; blocks heparanase-mediated HGF degradation, far more potent than endogenous BDNF for synaptic growth.
  2. Boost Neurogenesis & Synaptogenesis
    Promotes formation of new neural synaptic connections, improves synaptic plasticity, repairs damaged neuronal circuits; reverses cognitive decline in Alzheimer’s disease preclinical models.
  3. Anti-Neuroinflammation & Reduce Neuronal Apoptosis
    Suppresses microglia overactivation, lowers pro-inflammatory cytokine levels in brain tissue, reduces ROS oxidative stress and neuronal cell death caused by aging and neurodegeneration.
  4. Improve Spatial Memory & Learning Ability
    Enhances memory consolidation, relieves brain fog, fatigue and age-related cognitive impairment; supports long-term brain vitality.
  5. Peripheral Anti-Aging Auxiliary Effect
    Elevates peripheral HGF levels to protect vascular endothelial cells, improve microcirculation, relieve systemic oxidative aging.

5. Application Fields & Recommended Dosage

5.1 Nootropic Oral Supplements (Main Application)

Cognitive support capsules, memory enhancement powder, anti-brain fog longevity nutritional formulations
  • Standard daily oral dosage: 10–100 mg/day

5.2 Neuroscientific Laboratory Research

Alzheimer’s disease mechanism study, synaptic plasticity assay, neurotrophic pathway cell culture substrate
  • Typical cell culture working concentration: 1 pM – 10 nM

5.3 High-End Anti-Aging Compound Formulations

Longevity complex powder, systemic anti-inflammaging oral nutrient
  • Recommended addition: 50–300 mg per daily serving

Formula Operation Tips

Optimal pH range: 4.0–6.0; compatible with NR, NAD+ precursors, ginkgo extract, omega-3; dissolve in ethanol/glycerin first before mixing with water phase; add UV stabilizer to protect tyrosine.

6. Safety Profile

  • Low acute oral toxicity; well tolerated in animal preclinical trials
  • No neurotoxicity, no cytotoxicity to neurons at routine supplement/research concentrations
  • Rare mild gastrointestinal discomfort only at ultra-high oral doses
  • Not approved as mainstream cosmetic raw material; avoid direct leave-on skin use due to poor water solubility

7. Storage & Packaging

  • Storage Condition: Hermetic nitrogen-filled aluminum foil vacuum bag; long-term storage at -20°C, cool dry light-proof warehouse; short-term storage ≤4°C; avoid repeated opening & freeze-thaw cycles
  • Shelf Life: 36 months under intact original vacuum packaging
  • Packaging: 1g/5kg nitrogen-filled aluminum vacuum foil bags for supplement factories & research labs; 25kg double PE inner bag + paper drum for bulk orders
