SHORT DESCRIPTION

Mimosa Powder Extra Pure is a finely ground, high-purity botanical extract derived from the bark or leaves of Acacia spp. (commonly known as mimosa). This extra pure grade is meticulously processed to retain key phytochemicals—such as tannins, flavonoids, and phenolic compounds—in highly consistent concentrations. In laboratory settings, it is prized for use in phytochemical analysis, antioxidant testing, and evaluation of anti-inflammatory or antimicrobial activity.

With minimal impurities, Mimosa Powder is well-suited for biochemical assays, formulation trials, and comparative research on natural extracts. It may also be used in cosmetic formulations, nutraceutical studies, or dietary supplement development, where standardization and safety are critical. Proper storage in cool, dry, and dark conditions is recommended to maintain potency and prevent degradation.

Description

Mimosa Powder Extra Pure

Primary Uses:

SAFETY HANDLING PRECAUTIONS

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE):

  • Wear a lab coat, nitrile gloves, and safety goggles.

  • Use a dust mask or operate in a fume hood to avoid inhalation of fine particles.

Handling:

  • Avoid inhalation, ingestion, and contact with eyes or skin.

  • Prevent formation and dispersion of dust.

  • Wash hands thoroughly after use.

  • Handle with care as natural plant powders may contain allergenic or bioactive compounds.

Storage:

  • Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place.

  • Keep the container tightly sealed and away from direct sunlight and moisture.

  • Keep away from oxidizing agents and strong acids.

FIRST AID MEASURES

Inhalation:

  • Remove the individual to fresh air.

  • Seek medical attention if respiratory irritation persists.

Skin Contact:

  • Wash skin with soap and water.

  • Remove and wash contaminated clothing.

  • Seek medical attention if irritation or reaction occurs.

Eye Contact:

  • Rinse cautiously with plenty of water for several minutes.

  • Remove contact lenses if present and easy to do.

  • Continue rinsing and seek medical attention if symptoms persist.

Ingestion:

  • Rinse mouth with water.

  • Do not induce vomiting.

  • Seek medical advice, especially if large amounts were ingested.

FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES

Flammability:

  • Combustible in powder form; dust may form explosive mixtures with air.

Extinguishing Media:

  • Use dry chemical, foam, or CO₂ extinguishers.

  • Avoid using strong water jets.

Hazardous Combustion Products:

  • May produce carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and organic fumes.

Firefighter Protection:

  • Use self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and full protective gear.

  • Avoid inhalation of combustion fumes.
