Artemisinin 98% is mainly derived from artemisia annua. Or extract artemisinic acid in the higher content of artemisia annua, and then semi-synthesis. At present, there are no other natural plant resources containing artemisinin except artemisia annua. Although artemisia annua is widely distributed in the world, the content of artemisol varies greatly with different producing areas. According to the research results so far, artemisinin content in artemisia annua produced in most regions of the world is very low, with no use value, except in the eastern part of Chongqing, Fujian, Guangxi and some parts of Hainan. According to the investigation by the relevant state department, artemisinin growing in wumu Mountain in Youyang area of Chongqing, China, is of industrial extraction value worldwide.

It is soluble in chloroform, acetone, ethyl acetate and benzene, soluble in ethanol and ether, slightly soluble in cold petroleum ether, almost insoluble in water. Because of its special peroxide group, it is thermally unstable and easily decomposed by wet, hot and reductive substances.

Function of Herbal Extract Powder

Artemisinin Extract Powder can be uesd to malaria. The oxidation of the peroxide bond in artemisinin structure is an essential group for antimalarial action. The mechanism of action is that the free group produced by artemisinin in vivo binds to the plasmodium sadogens and changes the structure of plasmodium cell membrane. The binding of the free group with the plasmodium plasmodium will cause the bilayer membrane of the mitochondria to burst and eventually fall off, resulting in the destruction of the cellular structure and function of the plasmodium, and the chromatin in the nucleus will also be affected to a certain extent. Amino acids, on the other hand, are the building blocks of proteins that act on Artemisinin Extract Powder. Plasmodium absorption of isoleucine decreased, resulting in blocked synthesis of parasite proteins. Artemisia annua can not only kill pathogenic insects, but also have effects on schistosomiasis, toxoplasma infection, pneumocystis carinii and coccidia. Clinical trials have shown that Artemisinin Extract Powder and its derivatives have no significant side effects in the treatment of malaria.
