Turkmen scientists have developed an innovative method for obtaining camel thorn extract

Specialists of the Biotechnology Department of the International Science and Technology Park of the Academy of Sciences of Turkmenistan have patented a technology for obtaining an extract from camel thorn by microencapsulation. This was reported by “Turkmenistan: Golden Age”.

Camel thorn (Alhagi persarum) is a medicinal plant with many healing properties. It contains flavonoids, saponins, sugars, tannins, vitamins C, K and group B, carotene, ursolic acid, essential oil, resins. The plant is effective in the treatment of colds, flu, sore throat, bronchitis.

Camel thorn extract is obtained by grinding the plant and extracting useful substances using a special mixture. Microencapsulation acts as a technology that allows you to enclose active components in microscopic capsules, preserving the physicochemical and technological properties of the active substances.

The resulting extract can be used to create medical products based on plant materials, as well as in the food industry.

The main feature of the development is its increased therapeutic and prophylactic properties combined with low cost, the source notes.
