Bulk Deer Antler Velvet Extract — Standardized Powder for OEM/ODM | Aidacru

Aidacru supplies bulk Deer Antler Velvet Extract (Cornu Cervi Pantotrichum) as a B2B raw material to international supplement formulators and contract manufacturers. Sourced from the unossified velvet antler of farmed Cervus elaphus (Red Deer) and Cervus nippon (Sika Deer) under controlled, traceable conditions, the material is processed into a standardized water-extracted powder at 10:1 or 20:1 ratio, with optional standardization to polysaccharides ≥ 5% and crude protein ≥ 50%.

Deer antler velvet has been traditionally used in Chinese herbal medicine (recorded as "Lu Rong / 鹿茸" in the Shennong Bencao Jing) for over 2,000 years. Modern compositional research has examined its naturally occurring amino acids (glycine, proline, glutamic acid), collagen peptides, glycosaminoglycans (chondroitin sulfate, hyaluronic acid), and minerals (calcium, phosphorus, zinc, copper, iron). It is supplied strictly as a raw ingredient for further formulation into capsules, tablets, sachets, or functional food bases.

Each batch ships with full COA, polysaccharide assay, protein content, species verification, heavy metals, microbiological testing, and CITES/origin documentation where applicable.

Aidacru's bulk Deer Antler Velvet Extract is supplied as a raw material to international B2B clients — including contract manufacturers, traditional herbal brands, joint/connective tissue formulators, and OEM/ODM supplement houses. The extract is produced from unossified velvet antler of farmed deer (primarily Cervus elaphus and Cervus nippon) using multi-stage hot-water extraction, low-temperature concentration, and spray-drying, preserving the natural amino acid and polysaccharide composition. The material is supplied strictly as a raw ingredient for further formulation; it is not sold as a finished consumer dosage form.

Raw Material Features:

  • Ratio extract: 10:1 (standard) or 20:1 (concentrated) — both grades available

  • Standardization: Polysaccharides ≥ 5% (UV) / Crude protein ≥ 50% (Kjeldahl)

  • Naturally contains amino acids, collagen peptides, glycosaminoglycans, and trace minerals

  • Traditionally used in Chinese herbal medicine; documented in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia

  • Species PCR verification available on request to confirm botanical/animal origin

  • Each batch ships with full COA + species verification + origin documentation
