Amaranthus caudatus extract

Amaranthus caudatus extract (CAS 223747-79-3 ), also sourced and traded as amaranth oil, is a plant-derived ingredient obtained from the seeds of the love-lies-bleeding plant.

It delivers moisturizing and antioxidant activity across cosmetic, nutritional, and pharmaceutical formulations. In skincare and haircare products, it functions as a humectant and conditioning agent.

The extract supports moisture retention in creams, serums, and leave-on treatments. Nutritional supplement manufacturers incorporate it for its peptide and amino acid content for plant-based protein enrichment.

In functional food formulations, it contributes antioxidant activity that can extend shelf stability while supporting a clean-label ingredient profile for various consumer markets.

Pharmaceutical and nutraceutical developers also evaluate it as a bioactive carrier in softgel and encapsulated formats. Amaranthus caudatus extract is available as a liquid oil extract or dry powder.

Food-grade and cosmetic-grade specifications are the most commonly supplied, with some producers offering cold-pressed oil variants for premium personal care applications.

Bulk supply is typically available in drums or smaller packaging suited to formulation-scale procurement. This versatile ingredient meets diverse industrial requirements for purity and performance.
