From product development to manufacturing, Sun Ten is an industry leader in the production of Safe, Quality and Clinically Effective Natural Medicines.


Authenticity of Herbs

The authenticity of herbs used is critical in determining the function of herbal extracts. All herbs purchased are inspected twice through sensory identification by experienced herb handlers, as well as microscopic inspections and identification. Authenticity criteria are compiled in Sun Ten’s own Manual of Chinese Herbal Drug Materials, which is an important reference for purchasing and inspection.

Contamination
Safety of herbs and herbal products are of critical importance. Sun Ten uses state-of-the-art instruments (GC, AA, HPLC) to analyse crude herbs and concentrated extracts for pesticides, heavy metals, microbial and other contaminants ensuring absolute safety and peace of mind.

Safety
Sun Ten also owns High-Performance Liquid Chromatograph - Mass Chromatograph (HPLC-MS) for critical analysis. Crude herbs and concentrated extracts are also subjected to toxicological and pharmacological screenings. Also, all products are tested for pesticides, heavy metals, and microbiological contaminations to ensure products safety.

Efficacy
The efficacy of Sun Ten herbal extracts is assured by performing chromatographic analysis of raw herbs, which ensures they contain the appropriate levels of active constituents necessary for clinical effectiveness. The Sun Ten extraction process is designed to mirror the chemical fingerprint of traditionally decocted herbal preparations. Through the use of high pressure, temperature and vacuum control, along with the recapture of volatile components, a highly concentrated extract is achieved that duplicates the effectiveness of traditional decoctions.

Consistency
Sun Ten further tests the quality of its Chinese herbal extracts for batch-to-batch consistency, which is demonstrated through the presence of the active constituents of the herbs used. HPLC qualitative analysis of multiple batches has
demonstrated the consistency of Sun Ten products, ensuring that you get the same results every time.

Stability
Stability of the finished goods is critical to patient outcomes and compliance. Sun Ten has perfected the manufacturing process to eliminate moisture, which degrades active constituents and causes hardening of product, making it unsuitable for use.
