Overview
Garlic extract (CAS 8008-99-9 ), also marketed as diallyl trisulfide in its concentrated active form, is a plant-derived ingredient sourced from Allium sativum bulbs. It functions as a natural preservative, antioxidant, and flavoring agent across food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical supply chains.
In food manufacturing, it delivers authentic garlic flavor to sauces, marinades, seasonings, and processed meat products where consistent organoleptic performance is required. Pharmaceutical and nutraceutical formulators incorporate it into dietary supplements and softgel capsules.
These applications typically target antioxidant and immune-support positioning within the health market. In personal care, it is used in scalp treatments and anti-dandruff formulations where its natural biocidal activity supports preservation and product efficacy claims.
Food producers also apply it as a natural preservative in clean-label formulations to extend shelf life without synthetic additives. Garlic extract is supplied as a liquid extract, oil, or spray-dried powder depending on the target application and formulation requirements.
Standard grades include food-grade and standardized botanical extract specifications, with allicin or alliin content used as key quality markers for pharmaceutical and nutraceutical buyers. Quality standards often align with FCC , USP , or Ph.Eur. requirements.
Additional compliance may include BP , EP , or ACS standards depending on the specific industrial use case. Bulk supply is available in drums and IBC containers, with smaller quantities offered for R&D and pilot-scale sourcing.
