Housing China's most advanced and only conforming EU-GMP standard Acetone extraction pathway for Ginkgo Biloba Extract.
At UniCare, we design and operate our plant facilities to fulfill strict international GMP requirements. We manage the hardware parameters of our production lines with an advanced, centralized smart automatic control system. This digital oversight ensures that critical metrics—such as flow rates, temperatures, and pressures—stay stable across every batch.
Our raw material processing capacity reaches 30,000 tons annually. Our manufacturing setup features six multi-functional industrial extraction lines, including the only operational line in China that uses the specialized acetone solvent process for Ginkgo Biloba Extract in full alignment with EU-GMP and CEP requirements. By avoiding simple ethanol-only pathways, we achieve deep clearance of toxic Ginkgolic acids below regulatory limits while concentrating active lactones and flavones in their natural configurations.
Standardized to European & American monographs.
Highly efficient compound purification.
Technical insight into the acetone purification route compared to standard industrial pathways.
The botanical market offers different grades of Ginkgo Biloba Extract. The traditional ethanol extraction route is cheaper, but it struggles to isolate the desired therapeutic compound ratio while keeping levels of toxic **Ginkgolic Acids** low. Under USP and EP standards, Ginkgolic Acids must not exceed 5 ppm (and ideally below 1 ppm for premium clinical formulations) because of their allergenic and cytotoxic profile.
UniCare's specialized acetone-water process uses a series of extraction, filtration, and liquid-liquid partition steps. This selectively concentrates the target active components—**Ginkgo Flavone Glycosides (24%)** and **Terpene Lactones (6%)**—while removing unwanted elements like heavy starches, lipids, and toxic ginkgolic compounds. The result is a highly soluble, bioactive powder that meets global pharmacopoeial monographs.
Sourced from GACP-aligned plantations. Leaves are harvested at peak active compound content, then carefully dried and stored to prevent degradation.
The leaves undergo extraction in a controlled acetone-water mixture. This step targets the active terpene lactones (bilobalide, ginkgolides A, B, and C) and flavonoids.
Advanced chromatography separates and removes alkylphenols (ginkgolic acids), keeping residual levels below 1 ppm for maximum safety.
Tested in CNAS-compliant labs using state-of-the-art analytical equipment to guarantee safety and compliance.
Our quality assurance program verifies that every batch of botanical extract matches its technical specification sheet and complies with national food and drug safety rules. Our central laboratory has passed rigorous quality system assessments to support international exports.
Our testing covers active component assays, residual solvent limits, heavy metals analysis, and screenings for organochlorine and organophosphorus pesticide residues using advanced instrumentation. We also perform stability testing under controlled temperature and humidity conditions to establish accurate shelf-life ratings for our partners.

UniCare reinvests 10% of our annual net profit into research and development. Beyond refining botanical extraction, we operate an active research division focused on fermentation technology. This work helps us discover new bio-transformation pathways, improve compound absorption, and find ways to optimize traditional processes.
We work in close cooperation with the Beijing University of Chemical Technology in the field of industrial fermentation. Together, we develop and scale new raw materials for the cosmetics, dietary supplement, and pharmaceutical markets, helping turn lab-scale discoveries into commercial-grade products.
Stable botanical ingredients start with quality raw materials. We manage a procurement system that traces each batch back to its designated growing region. Our warehouses operate under a strict quality management system to check incoming biomass for active ingredients, moisture, ash, heavy metals, and pesticide residues.
To secure a reliable supply of key ingredients, UniCare coordinates with local growers to manage specialized cultivation bases, including Ginkgo Biloba leaf, Epimedium, Phellodendron, and Olive leaf planting zones. Several of these bases are managed in line with GACP (Good Agricultural and Collection Practices) guidelines. We also work with plant breeding experts to select cultivars with naturally higher active compound levels, helping optimize raw material efficiency.
How our B2B partners use Ginkgo Biloba Extract across different industries.
Used in cognitive health formulas targeting memory support, focus, and mental clarity. Formulators rely on our standardized 24/6 extract for its consistent terpene lactone profile.
Standardized Ginkgo flavonoids support microcirculation and vascular elasticity. They are commonly combined with Coenzyme Q10 and Grape Seed Extract in cardiovascular supplement lines.
Added to skincare formulas for its antioxidant activity. Ginkgo extract helps protect skin cells from oxidative stress and environmental factors. Our low-ginkgolic-acid profile ensures a gentle, skin-friendly ingredient.
Providing global buyers with stable pricing, reliable lead times, and certified quality.
China grows a large share of the world's Ginkgo Biloba leaves. Operating our manufacturing facilities near these key cultivation areas allows us to reduce raw material transport costs and protect fresh harvests from heat degradation. This direct access, combined with our 30,000-ton processing capacity, helps us keep production running smoothly and manage raw material pricing changes. Our automated systems also lower energy and utility consumption per kilogram of extract, allowing us to offer competitive bulk pricing to our partners.
We maintain buffer stocks of key extracts in climate-controlled warehouses, protecting our partners from seasonal shortages.
We supply comprehensive paperwork, including HPLC assay charts, heavy metal profiles, allergen statements, and GMO declarations for customs clearances.
We support maritime, air, and express logistics, offering custom packaging (drums, vacuum boxes, heat-sealed bags) to maintain product freshness.
