I would like to inquire about the solubility of Cosmoperine® (Tetrahydropiperine). The product information states it can be dissolved in Propylene Glycol (at a ratio of 1:100, e.g., 1g Cosmoperine® requires 100g Propylene Glycol), Fractionated Coconut Oil (at a ratio of 1:100), and Glycerin (at a ratio of 1:200). Can Cosmoperine® be dissolved in Ethoxydiglycol, 1,2-Hexanediol, or 1,3-Propanediol? If so, what are the required dissolution ratios? Thank you.
