Sodium copper chlorophyllin powder
product description
Chlorophyll is the natural green pigment that powers photosynthesis in plants, prized in nutrition and personal care for its deodorizing, antioxidant and skin-supporting properties. KH Health supplies chlorophyll and its semi-synthetic derivative, sodium copper chlorophyllin, in water- and oil-soluble forms standardized to a 10% assay.
Sourced from alfalfa, spinach and mulberry leaves grown under controlled agricultural programs in China, our chlorophyll lines run through a fully traceable chain — from harvest and cleaning, through chlorophyllin conversion, purification and drying, to in-house HPLC and ICP-MS quality control. Every shipment is released with a complete COA, and custom specifications for assay, particle size, solubility and color value are available to match your formulation.
The manufacturing process involves
1. Solvent extraction of crude chlorophyll from dried plant material
2. Saponificatio to remove the phytol group, converting fat-soluble chlorophyll to water-soluble chlorophyllin
3. Copper substitution replacing the central magnesium ion with copper for enhanced stability and vivid color
4. Sodium salt formation and spray-drying into a fine, free-flowing powder
product benefits
1 Powerful Natural Antioxidant Activity
Sodium copper chlorophyllin (SCC) exhibits robust free-radical scavenging capacity. In vitro studies demonstrate its ability to neutralize reactive oxygen species (ROS) and inhibit lipid peroxidation. Research published in peer-reviewed journals confirms that SCC acts as a chain-breaking antioxidant, protecting cellular membranes from oxidative damage. Its antioxidant potency is further enhanced by the copper center, which participates in redox cycling to sustain radical-neutralizing activity.
2 Anti-Inflammatory & Anti-Hyaluronidase Properties
SCC has been shown to inhibit hyaluronidase — an enzyme that breaks down hyaluronic acid in connective tissue — providing a mechanistic basis for its observed anti-inflammatory activity. Early pharmacological research on water-soluble chlorophyllins first demonstrated this anti-hyaluronidase effect, suggesting a pathway for reducing tissue inflammation and preserving extracellular matrix integrity.
3 Internal Deodorizer & Odor Neutralization
One of the most well-documented benefits of SCC is its ability to control body odor from within. Unlike topical deodorants that mask odors, SCC works systemically by binding to odor-causing compounds in the gastrointestinal tract before they are absorbed and excreted through sweat, breath, or urine. This mechanism has been clinically utilized for decades in colostomy and ileostomy patients to reduce fecal odor, and more recently in consumer wellness products targeting general body odor, bad breath, and urinary odor.
4 Wound Healing & Skin Repair
SCC has a long history of use in topical wound-healing ointments. It promotes faster tissue regeneration, reduces inflammation at the wound site, and helps control infection through its antimicrobial properties. Clinical and preclinical observations indicate that SCC-containing topical preparations enhance the healing of minor wounds, burns, and skin ulcers by supporting the proliferation of healthy tissue and reducing exudate.
5 Skin Anti-Aging & Photoaging Protection
When delivered via liposomal topical formulations, SCC has shown promising results in reducing signs of photoaging. Clinical pilot studies on women with photodamaged facial skin demonstrated improvements in fine lines, skin firmness, and overall texture. The anti-aging mechanism is attributed to SCC's combined antioxidant, anti-hyaluronidase, and anti-inflammatory activities — protecting collagen and elastin from degradation while reducing UV-induced oxidative stress. Additionally, SCC has shown skin-lightening effects by reducing melanin levels, offering protection against sun-induced hyperpigmentation.
6 Antimicrobial Activity
SCC exhibits broad-spectrum antimicrobial properties against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, as well as certain fungi. This makes it valuable in formulations where microbial control is desired — such as oral care products (toothpaste, mouthwash), topical skincare, and wound care. Its antibacterial action against oral pathogens contributes to its efficacy in reducing bad breath and supporting gum health.
7 Chelation & Detoxification Support
SCC's molecular structure enables it to bind with certain heavy metals and environmental toxins in the gastrointestinal tract, potentially reducing their absorption. While human clinical data on chelation is limited, in vitro and animal studies suggest that chlorophyllin can form complexes with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and other carcinogens, reducing their bioavailability. This property has led to SCC's inclusion in detox-focused supplement formulations.
8 Liver Support & Hematopoietic Function
In traditional and clinical use (particularly in Asian pharmaceutical markets), sodium copper chlorophyllin has been used as an adjunctive treatment for acute and chronic hepatitis, liver enlargement, and cirrhosis. Clinical research suggests it activates the reticuloendothelial system of the liver, enhances hepatocyte resistance, and accelerates liver cell repair and regeneration. Additionally, SCC has been shown to increase peripheral white blood cell and platelet counts in animal models of aplastic anemia, suggesting a hematopoietic-supportive effect through regulation of bone marrow stem cell proliferation.
product Applications
Internal Deodorant & Detox Supplements
Body-odor, breath-freshening and detox supplements are a fast-growing wellness segment; formulators need a safe, plant-derived active with documented internal deodorant properties.
Chlorophyllin chelates odor-causing compounds in the digestive tract; water-soluble grades blend easily into tablets, capsules, chewables and liquid drops with controlled taste masking.
Wound Care & Skin Healing Products
Wound care and skin-repair topicals increasingly favor botanically derived actives with healing and soothing properties.
Chlorophyllin-based actives are incorporated into ointments, creams and gels — oil-soluble grades suit anhydrous bases, water-soluble grades suit aqueous gels.
Natural Colorant (Food & Beverage)
Sodium copper chlorophyllin delivers a stable green hue in confectionery, beverages, gums and dairy; color strength is standardized per lot.
Food-grade compliance with documented color-value specs and stability data enables reproducible shade matching.
Blood Builder & Iron Support Formulas
Iron-deficiency support and "blood builder" supplements are a core women's-health and general-wellness category.
Chlorophyllin serves as a complementary ingredient in iron-complex formulations, supporting hemoglobin formation pathways in traditional and modern usage.
Case Study
European Confectionery Manufacturer: A leading candy producer struggled with natural color fading under high-temperature boiling. By switching to our high-stability Sodium Copper Chlorophyllin, they achieved a vibrant, consistent green hue that survived the 110°C processing, reducing customer complaints by 90%.
US Dietary Supplement Brand: A brand reformulating their liquid chlorophyll drops needed a supplier with strict free-copper limits (<0.025%). We provided customized batch testing and USP-compliant documentation, helping them pass FDA audits and launch their product 3 weeks ahead of schedule.
