Lippia Citriodora Leaf Extract is an extract derived from the leaves of Lippia citriodora. It is known for its potential to cause allergies and immunotoxicity, as well as restrictions on its use due to safety concerns. It is obtained by maceration, a cold process that preserves heat-sensitive phytochemicals and renders extracts matching, as best as possible, the pool of phytochemicals in the plant. CO2 extraction is a precise and environmentally-friendly method used to extract valuable compounds from natural materials. It begins with supercritical carbon dioxide (CO2), which acts as a solvent to dissolve and carry away desired compounds from plants. After extraction, adjusting pressure and temperature returns CO2 to a gaseous state, leaving behind pure and potent extracted compounds.
