9. Quinoa Saponin Composition
• Average molecular weight 1,800 – 2,000 Daltons
• Below 200 – 500 ppm concentration => saponins exist as a monomer
• Above 200 – 500 ppm => micelles with apparent molecular weight of approximately
100,000 Daltons

10. Cosmetic Grade Quinoa Saponins
• Quinoa extracts need careful purification
• THI Proprietary AOSS extraction technology (Green Tech)
• Light-beige to beige crystals
• Aqueous solution has a yellow-brown appearance
