Product information:
Our GMA is obtained from licorice root (Glycyrrhiza glabra L.) by extraction and purification methods.
It is a mixture of ammonium 18α- and 18β-glycyrrhizate (ammonium salt of (20b) -3beta- [[2-O- (β-D-glucopyranosyluronic acid) -α-D-glucopyranosyluronic acid] -α-D-glucopyranosyluronic acid] oxy] -11-oxoolean-12-en-29-oic acid), with the 18beta isomer being the main component.
Ammonium glycyrrhizate is in accordance with the current monograph “1772: Ammonium glycyrrhizate” of the European Pharmacopoeia with a content of 98.0 to 102.0% (anhydrous substance).
