Calculating Hi-EGCG™ Quantity for 1% and 2% EGCG Concentration
Question
I need to determine the precise quantity of Hi-EGCG™ required to achieve specific EGCG concentrations in a 1 kg product. Given that Hi-EGCG™ contains at least 3% EGCG, please provide the amount needed to formulate a product with:
- 1% EGCG concentration
- 2% EGCG concentration
This information is crucial for calculating the raw material quantity for ordering.
Answer
For a 1 kg product, if you wish to achieve the desired EGCG concentration using Hi-EGCG™ which contains at least 3% EGCG, you can calculate the quantities as follows:
For 1% EGCG concentration in 1 kg of product:
You will need approximately 333.33 grams (or 0.333 kg) of Hi-EGCG™ to achieve 10 grams of EGCG in the total 1,000 grams of product.For 2% EGCG concentration in 1 kg of product:
You will need approximately 666.67 grams (or 0.667 kg) of Hi-EGCG™ to achieve 20 grams of EGCG in the total 1,000 grams of product.
If you require a higher concentration of EGCG, we also offer Pure-EGCG™ which has an EGCG concentration of 98%. This would allow you to use a smaller quantity of the ingredient to achieve high EGCG concentrations in your product.
