Tephrosia purpurea (Sarapunkha / Ban Vashma)
High-Resolution Morphology: Pinnate Leaves
Controlled Wild-Crafting Zone
The Organicsio Advantage
While often wild-crafted, Tephrosia purpurea is notorious for absorbing environmental heavy metals. Organicsio utilizes a proprietary semi-cultivation protocol in geo-tagged, non-industrial zones. Our supply chain guarantees “Ban Vashma” raw material that is free from aflatoxins and standardized for minimal rotenoid toxicity while maximizing the hepato-protective flavonoid content.
Botanical Morphology & Raw Material
Phytochemical Profile
The efficacy of our verified genotype is driven by a complex profile of flavonoids and rotenoids. Key constituents include Tephrosin, Pongamol, and Lanceolatin B. Our High-Performance Thin-Layer Chromatography (HPTLC) fingerprinting ensures the presence of beta-sitosterol and lupeol, confirming authenticity and distinguishing it from adulterant species like T. villosa.
