Dissolving Boswellia Serrata Extract: Alternatives to Propylene Glycol
Question
Can Boswellia Serrata Extract be dissolved using solvents other than Propylene Glycol? If so, what alternatives are available, such as Butylene Glycol or Ethoxydiglycol, and how do their dissolution properties compare to Propylene Glycol?
Answer
Hello,
Regarding your question about alternatives to Propylene Glycol for dissolving Boswellia Serrata extract, please be informed that Propylene Glycol is currently available for purchase.
Propylene Glycol is the recommended solvent for Boswellia Serrata extract because the manufacturer has specifically tested and provided dissolution information for this combination.
While other glycols such as Butylene Glycol and Ethoxydiglycol can also dissolve Boswellia Serrata extract, the dissolution rate may differ from Propylene Glycol. If you choose to use these alternatives, you may need to perform your own tests to determine the correct amount required for complete dissolution.
Therefore, we recommend using Propylene Glycol as it is available, cost-effective, and comes with clear dissolution data.
