Eight standardized bioactives, one full-spectrum extract
Bacosane® is a chemically standardized, full-spectrum extract of Bacopa monnieri. Unlike conventional Bacopa extracts characterized only by total bacosides, Bacosane® preserves a defined profile of eight bioactive compounds — triterpenoid saponins, sapogenins, lactones and triterpenoid acids.
Asiatic acid
C₃₀H₄₈O₅Associated in the Bacosane® patent with hippocampal cell proliferation, spatial working memory and learning-related pathways.
Ebelin lactone
C₃₀H₄₆O₃An aglycone marker that helps characterize the enriched triterpenoid fraction and distinguishes Bacosane® from extracts measured only for total bacosides.
Bacogenin A1
C₃₀H₄₈O₄A non-glycosylated triterpenoid marker contributing to the chemical identity and chromatographic fingerprint of the extract.
Bhramic acid
C₃₀H₄₈O₆Also known as brahmic or madecassic acid. Identified in the patent as an antioxidant and anti-stress component of the Bacosane® profile.
Bacoside A3
C₄₇H₇₆O₁₈A principal saponin marker within the standardized bacoside fraction, contributing to the characteristic chemistry of Bacopa monnieri.
Bacopaside I
C₄₆H₇₄O₂₀SA distinct saponin marker that broadens the extract's glycoside profile beyond Bacoside A3 alone.
Bacopaside II
C₄₇H₇₆O₁₈A complementary bacopaside marker retained within the full-spectrum bacoside-rich fraction.
Jujubogenin
C₃₀H₄₈O₄An aglycone marker contributing to the extract's characteristic triterpenoid fingerprint and overall chemical identity.
The multi-bioactive synergistic advantage
Bacosane® preserves the authentic botanical fingerprint of Bacopa monnieri by delivering eight standardized, synergistic bioactives rather than a single isolated constituent. Naturally co-occurring saponins, sapogenins, triterpenoid acids, and lactones are enriched through a patented process to provide a comprehensive phytochemical matrix with rigorous batch-to-batch consistency. The patented composition delivers synergistic antioxidant, anti-stress, neuroprotective, and cognitive-supporting properties.
Analytical method
- Available standardized grades: 10%, 20%, 30%, 40% and 50%
- Primary analytical technique: High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)
- Markers evaluated: All eight bioactives — Bacoside A3, Bacopaside I, Bacopaside II, Asiatic acid, Bhramic acid, Bacogenin A1, Ebelin lactone and Jujubogenin
- Quality objective: Consistent quantitative assay and chromatographic identity across commercial production batches
The granted patent and quality specifications define validated High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) methods with UV detection on reversed-phase C18 stationary columns to quantify the entire eight-bioactive matrix. Total bacosides and triterpenoid glycosides (Bacoside A3, Bacopaside I, Bacopaside II), triterpenoid acids (Asiatic acid, Bhramic acid), and aglycone sapogenins/lactones (Bacogenin A1, Ebelin lactone, Jujubogenin) are resolved using tailored mobile phase gradients to ensure complete chromatographic identification and batch-to-batch consistency.
