Biological effects
Scientific literature attributes multiple biological activities to Verbascoside including anti-hepatotoxic, anti-inflammatory, pain-relieving and antioxidant effects. Clinical studies conducted by ABR have shown that Verbascoside is effective in reducing the state of chronic oxidative stress in smokers and has an effect on autophagy.

Scientific studies have shown the effectiveness of Verbascoside in:
Lippia citriodora
Lippia citriodora is a synonym for Aloysia triphylla, Verbena citriodora and Verbena triphyilla. Plants of Lippia genus have been and are still used today by the indigenous peoples of South America and by traditional Chinese medicine for the treatment of respiratory diseases such as colds and flu, coughs and bronchitis.
Lippia citriodora leaves are also used as flavoring in culinary preparations or to give lemon flavor to drinks. Lippia is used medicinally as a relaxing and carminative herb.
Other medical uses include the treatment of dyspepsia, headache, neuralgia and dizziness.
From cell cultures in suspension of Lippia citriodora, ABR extracts the ingredient VERBASCOSIDE.
Verbascoside (also known as Acteoside) is a secondary metabolite produced by the plant as a defense agent against parasites and insects.
Verbascoside is a phenylpropanoid widely distributed in the plant kingdom, characterized by a residue of caffeic acid and one of hydroxytyrosol linked to a glucopyranoside on opposite sides of the sugar chain through, respectively, an ester and glycosidic bond.

Working process
Production takes a relatively short time. In 6 weeks we are able to produce the inoculants that allow us to start the reactor with the production of cells in one cubic meter. Cell growth in this step takes three weeks. Once the cell growth phase is over, we must wash, extract, concentrate and freeze-dry the extract. These steps take an additional 10 days. At the end we have a product in powder, packaged under vacuum-sealed bags and protected from light radiation.

Identification of a plant recognized for its content of rare and effective active molecules.
Identification of a plant recognized for its content of rare and effective active molecules.
Induction of cell proliferation and induction of calluses.
After the selection of the most efficient cell population, among the calluses, the production of the active molecules is amplified in sterile and highly controlled high volume bioreactors.
Extraction of water from biomass, purification and freeze-drying of the active ingredients.
Final extract, titled in actives.
Finished and vacuum-packed ingredient for a shelf life of over 3 years.
