Why Use Clove Botanical Reference Material?

Clove (Syzygium aromaticum) is widely used in food, flavoring, and herbal-product testing. A characterized botanical reference material provides laboratories with a defined plant material for comparison during identity testing, chromatographic fingerprinting, and raw-material quality assessment.

BioTrace Labs' Clove Botanical Reference Material is intended for analytical and research applications including HPTLC profiling, botanical authentication, phytochemical comparison, and herbal raw-material standardization.

Frequently asked questions

What is Clove Botanical Reference Material?

Clove Botanical Reference Material is a certified Syzygium aromaticum botanical reference material used to confirm identity and authenticity through HPTLC fingerprinting and phytochemical comparison.

What is a clove HPTLC fingerprint used for?

A clove HPTLC fingerprint is a chromatographic profile of eugenol and related compounds such as eugenyl acetate used to confirm that a raw material is genuine Syzygium aromaticum bud and free from adulteration.

How does this BRM support botanical authentication of clove?

It provides a verified comparison standard against which an unknown clove sample's HPTLC or phytochemical profile can be matched, confirming identity and detecting mislabeling or dilution.

What are the key phytochemical markers in this Syzygium aromaticum reference material?

The primary marker is eugenol, which makes up the large majority of clove's essential oil content, along with eugenyl acetate and beta-caryophyllene, which together form clove's characteristic fingerprint.

Can this BRM detect clove stem adulteration?

Yes. Clove stems, a lower-value by-product with a much lower eugenol content than the bud, are sometimes ground and blended into whole clove or clove powder to cut costs. Comparing a test sample's HPTLC/eugenol profile against this Syzygium aromaticum bud reference material can help flag this kind of dilution.

Is this BRM available in bulk from a supplier?

Yes, BioTrace Labs is a clove reference material supplier offering both standard 5g/10g packs and bulk quantities, contact us via “Ask a Question” for bulk or custom orders.

Does this BRM come with a Certificate of Analysis (CoA)?

Yes, a Certificate of Analysis confirming the HPTLC fingerprint and identity of each batch is available on request via the Download CoA option.

How should this BRM be stored to preserve its eugenol content?

Store it in a cool, dry place inside its original airtight, light-resistant packaging, away from direct light and humidity, to preserve its eugenol content.

Do you ship Clove Botanical Reference Material within the USA?

Yes. BioTrace Labs is a US-based supplier of Clove Botanical Reference Material, so US laboratories and manufacturers can order without the customs delays or import paperwork that come with overseas suppliers.
