Recycling the Unused Persimmon Stems: Creating High-Value Ingredients
For farmers cultivating persimmon trees, the stems left behind after harvesting have long been considered waste. While persimmon leaves are well-loved for their health benefits, the stems remained underutilized, leaving their potential untapped. Through research and enzymatic fermentation, we’ve turned these discarded stems into high-value resources. Let us guide you through the transformation process:
1. Preparation for Fresh Use
Cleaning and processing Cheongyang’s discarded persimmon stems for fresh, sustainable use.
2. Optimization of Enzymatic Hydrolysis
Breaking down the stems into highly bioavailable components using tailored enzymatic processes.
3. Ensuring Purity of Extracts
Refining the extraction process to secure a pure and concentrated result.
4. Enhancing Bioactive Components
Fractionating and refining the extract to isolate active components that deliver optimal efficacy.
5. Fragrance Analysis
Conducting a full-spectrum analysis of the resulting extract's fragrance profile to ensure its appeal.
6. In Vitro Performance Evaluation
Testing the extract for cellular efficacy and other functional benefits in controlled laboratory settings.
7. Stability Testing
Assessing ingredient stability to ensure high performance in diverse formulations.
8. Formulation Suitability Assessment
Testing compatibility in a variety of skincare formulations to ensure optimal delivery and application.
9. Sensory Evaluation
Conducting tactile and sensory tests to fine-tune the product’s texture and feel.
This meticulous process demonstrates how discarded natural resources can be transformed into high-value ingredients, blending sustainability with scientific innovation to create products that work better for you and for the planet.
