Consistent quality, reliable supply, and a partner who understands your research and development needs. We are Fufeng Snotra Bio-Tech Co., Ltd. – 18 years in botanical extraction, from our own cultivation bases to our GMP-compliant manufacturing facilities. Our Natural Plant Extract portfolio includes Camptothecin Extract, derived from the leaves and fruits of Camptotheca acuminata Decne[reference:25][reference:26][reference:27]. Also known as 喜树碱, this monoterpenoid indole alkaloid is a potent inhibitor of cancer cell growth and a key precursor for semi-synthetic anti-cancer drugs like Irinotecan and Topotecan[reference:28]. We offer high-purity Camptothecin (≥98% by HPLC)[reference:29][reference:30][reference:31], as well as customized leaf extracts (e.g., 10:1, 20:1)[reference:32][reference:33], to meet your specific formulation and research requirements.

Background: A European pharmaceutical R&D institute was developing a novel drug delivery system for camptothecin to improve its bioavailability. They required a reliable source of high-purity camptothecin (≥98%) for their preclinical studies.
Challenge: Their previous supplier could not provide consistent batch quality – purity varied significantly between lots, and documentation did not meet GMP standards for pharmaceutical research materials.
Solution: We supplied Camptothecin Extract standardized to ≥98% by HPLC, with full COA documentation including purity, heavy metals, and residual solvents. We provided custom packaging in 1 kg and 5 kg sizes for their research needs.
Result: The research institute successfully completed their preclinical studies with consistent results across 10+ production batches. Batch variance was maintained at ≤1% for purity. They have since scaled up to clinical trial material procurement featuring our Camptothecin Extract.
Camptothecin is a potent anti-cancer alkaloid that inhibits topoisomerase I, an enzyme essential for DNA replication[reference:61][reference:62]. It is primarily used as a research compound and as a key starting material for the synthesis of semi-synthetic anti-cancer drugs such as Irinotecan and Topotecan[reference:63].
Our facility holds ISO9001, ISO22000, HACCP, HALAL, and Kosher certifications – these are factory-level quality management systems. For each batch of Camptothecin Extract, we provide a Certificate of Analysis (COA) covering identification, purity (HPLC)[reference:64], loss on drying, residue on ignition, and heavy metals. Our products are produced using advanced ethanol extraction and crystallization technology[reference:65]. If you need product-specific third-party certifications or additional tests, please contact us – we can arrange these based on your order volume and target market requirements.
Camptothecin is a potent bioactive compound and is not intended for direct human consumption. It is used in pharmaceutical research and development, and as an intermediate in API synthesis[reference:66]. Recommended usage levels depend entirely on the specific research or manufacturing application. We recommend consulting with your R&D team to determine optimal levels for your specific formulation and target application. We provide formulation guidance and technical support upon request.
