Inside the POLLITIN® Laboratory
At the POLLITIN® laboratory, every step is designed to ensure product quality and compliance with strict specifications. Advanced testing equipment guarantees consistency in the quality of pollen extract. Each batch undergoes thorough testing to confirm that it is free from toxins and pesticides.
The nutritional analysis of POLLITIN®—including amino acids, phytosterols, isoflavones, and fatty acids—is performed using HPLC (High Performance Liquid Chromatography) and UV-Spectrometry.
Why is POLLITIN® more trustworthy than ordinary extracts?
Because it uses high-level analytical tools like HPLC and UV-Spectrometry—that’s the key strength.
Let me break it down simply for you:
1. HPLC (High Performance Liquid Chromatography)
What is it?
A molecular-level separation technique for analyzing complex compounds in liquid form.
Used to detect specific nutrients like amino acids, phytosterols, isoflavones, and certain fatty acids.
Why is it good?
-
Extremely high accuracy (used in pharmaceutical applications)
-
Can distinguish between similar substances → For example, identifies which amino acids are present (like leucine, lysine), not just total protein
-
Detects substances at ppm (parts per million) level
-
Confirms presence + exact quantity of each compound
2. UV-Spectrometry (Ultraviolet Spectroscopy)
What is it?
A method for measuring the light absorption of specific substances in the UV wavelength range.
Ideal for compounds with UV-absorbing structures such as isoflavones, certain vitamins, and flavonoids.
Why is it good?
-
Fast and requires only small sample amounts
-
Accurately determines the concentration of active compounds
-
Verifies the presence of antioxidants and active substances at levels that are truly effective
So why are HPLC + UV-Spectrometry crucial for Pollitin®?
1. Because pollen extract contains many similar compounds
→ HPLC is needed to separate and identify exactly which phytosterol or amino acid is present.
2. For “consistency” and “standardized nutrient levels” across all batches
→ Ensures every product batch delivers the same level of active nutrition.
→ UV-Spectrometry confirms the stability of these key compounds throughout the production process.
3. To obtain “international certification documents”
→ Brands that use high-quality POLLITIN® can use these verified test results to register their products globally.
