Herbalife Nutrition (NYSE: HLF), a premier global nutrition
company whose purpose is to make the world healthier and happier,
is presenting two papers on tea extraction at the Association of
Official Agricultural Chemists (AOAC) International's Annual
Meeting and Exposition taking place in Toronto,
Canada, from Aug. 26-29.
"At Herbalife Nutrition, we’ve implemented an industry-leading
botanical science program to guarantee that the highest quality
botanical ingredients are used in our products and our research on
tea extraction will help further document the science of DNA
quality," said Gary Swanson, senior vice president, Global
Quality, Herbalife Nutrition.
The first paper, entitled “DNA Quality and Quantity Analysis of
Camellia Sinensis through Processing From Fresh Leaves to a Green
Tea Extract Product,” is being co-presented by Herbalife Nutrition
and University of Guelph as part of our work with the NHP Research
Alliance. Herbalife Nutrition quality scientists Yanjun Zhang,
Ph.D., and Zhengfei Lu, Ph.D., and Adam Faller, Ph.D. Candidate
from College of Biological Sciences, University of Guelph, Ontario,
Canada, conducted a study to measure multiple DNA variables after
each step in the processing of a green tea extract (GTE) product,
in order to document DNA quality and quantity. This work
demonstrated successful DNA extraction, PCR amplification,
sequencing and identification using a highly-processed botanical
extract product. The results saw a 41.1% decrease in mean
extractable genomic DNA through farm processing (p<0.01) and a
99.7% decrease through facility processing (p<0.05)
demonstrating successful DNA extraction, PCR amplification,
sequencing and identification using a highly-processed botanical
extract product.
The second paper evaluating tea extraction, entitled
“Qualification and Certification of Tea Extracts using NMR,” is
being presented by Herbalife Nutrition quality scientist Congmei
Cao, Ph.D. Multiple lots of different tea extracts with controlled
processing procedures were evaluated to determine the
representative chemical profile of tea extract using chemometrics
and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR). This is an
advanced approach that meets the need of Herbalife Nutrition for
botanical authentication and can also be adopted by other companies
in the nutraceutical industry. The principle components for
differentiating the tea extracts were identified and quantified.
After assessment of stability and homogeneity, these characterized
tea extracts will be certified as in-house reference materials with
intended use for identification of specific tea extracts and
quantification of principle components in these tea extracts.
In addition, the AOAC has accepted nine other poster submissions
from Herbalife Nutrition scientists that cover a range of
analytical methodologies and advancements in areas including
alternative sweetener testing, DNA extraction, protein powder
testing, botanical extraction and aloe testing, among others.
As a global supplier of herbal supplements, Herbalife Nutrition
uses more than 150 botanical ingredients including soybeans, tea
and aloe. The company has a robust, science-based product
development process guided by a team of more than 300 scientists to
assure the quality of the products. The Company has invested more
than $300 million during the past six years in its manufacturing
facilities and now makes approximately 65 percent of all its
nutrition products in-house.
