NATURAL ORIGIN. SCIENTIFIC PRECISION. ## What is Maqui XT®? Maqui XT® is a **concentrated extract of the wild Maqui Berry** *(Aristotelia chilensis)* from Patagonia, standardized to ≥ **25% anthocyanins and ≥ 20% delphinidins.** Produced through a solvent-free process, it delivers the natural antioxidant compounds of Maqui in a clean-label, water-soluble format suitable for a wide range of functional applications. Maqui XT® gives formulators a consistent, traceable source of **Patagonian** anthocyanins backed by MNL Group's expertise in Maqui standardization.     [Request a Sample or Quote](https://www.mnl-group.com/en/contact?hsLang=en) ![maqui-berry-powder](https://www.mnl-group.com/hubfs/maqui-berry-powder.png "maqui-berry-powder") ## Patagonian Origin, Solvent-Free Purity Maqui XT® begins where all MNL Group ingredients begin — in the wild Maqui forests of southern Chile. Shaped by Patagonia's demanding climate — intense sun radiation, wide temperature swings, and the meeting of the Andes and the Humboldt Current — the Maqui plant develops an unusually rich concentration of anthocyanins and delphinidins, the compounds behind its deep violet color. The concentrate is produced using a solvent-free method, meaning no chemical solvents are used in the extraction. The result is a clean-label ingredient with excellent water solubility, formulated to preserve the berry's natural anthocyanin profile while meeting the purity and traceability standards expected by global food, beverage, and supplement brands. All Maqui used in Maqui XT® is wild-harvested in southern Chile in collaboration with local communities, under fair-trade and full-traceability standards — from Patagonia to finished ingredient. ### Concentrated Anthocyanins, and the Science Behind Them ![maqui-berry-delphinol-study](https://www.mnl-group.com/hubfs/maqui-berry-delphinol-study.webp "maqui-berry-delphinol-study") ##### Maqui XT® concentrates the natural pigments of the Maqui Berry into a standardized, consistent profile — the foundation of its value as a functional ingredient. Standardization at a glance: • ≥ 25% total anthocyanins (HPLC) • ≥ 20% delphinidins (HPLC) • ORAC value ≥ 238.277 µmol TE/100g (antioxidant compound characterization) • Solvent-free · excellent water solubility Delphinidins are the anthocyanin subclass responsible for Maqui's deep violet color, and the reason this fruit is recognized as one of the most studied natural antioxidant sources of the Southern Hemisphere. These pigments are produced by the plant itself as natural protection against sun radiation and environmental stress — the same compounds behind Maqui's antioxidant capacity. Across more than 15 years of research, MNL Group and independent groups have studied how they behave at a molecular level. Research on Maqui's anthocyanins suggests they help neutralize reactive oxygen species and contribute to the body's natural antioxidant defenses, and laboratory studies have reported delphinidins among the most active anthocyanins in scavenging free radicals — consistent with Maqui's deep pigmentation and high antioxidant capacity. Maqui XT® brings these naturally occurring compounds into a concentrated, standardized form for functional applications. ## Quality & Traceability Maqui XT® is produced to MNL Group standards as a food-grade ingredient, with consistent quality and full traceability batch to batch. Detailed technical and microbiological specifications are available on request.   ![MNL Group quality and full traceability process](https://www.mnl-group.com/hs-fs/hubfs/2-1.png?width=800&height=371&name=2-1.png "MNL Group quality and full traceability process") ### Maqui XT®  Applications #### Thanks to its excellent water solubility and standardized anthocyanin profile, Maqui XT® adapts to a broad range of formats across three main categories: HUMAN HEALTH #### Functional Beverages Antioxidant shots, ready-to-drink and powdered drink mixes, smoothies, and Maqui-enriched functional waters — where the deep violet color doubles as a natural visual cue.   HUMAN HEALTH #### Functional Foods Gummies, bars, dairy and plant-based products, and other formats looking to incorporate a recognizable Patagonian superfruit ingredient.   HUMAN HEALTH #### Dietary Supplements Capsules, tablets, and powdered antioxidant blends, where a standardized, concentrated anthocyanin source adds formulation value.   ### Frequently Asked Questions about Maqui XT® ![maqui-berry-faq](https://www.mnl-group.com/hubfs/maqui-berry-faq.png "maqui-berry-faq") *⚠️  The research described on this page refers to the Maqui Berry and its naturally occurring anthocyanin compounds. Maqui XT® is a food ingredient and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. * - ###### What is Maqui XT®? Maqui XT® is a solvent-free, standardized concentrate of the wild Maqui Berry (*Aristotelia chilensis*) from Patagonia, southern Chile. It is standardized to ≥ 25% total anthocyanins and ≥ 20% delphinidins, and is developed for functional foods, beverages, and dietary supplements. - ###### What is Maqui XT® standardized to?  Each batch of Maqui XT® is standardized to ≥ 25% total anthocyanins and ≥ 20% delphinidins by HPLC, with an ORAC value of ≥ 238.277 µmol TE/100g as a reference of its antioxidant compound content. It is solvent-free and water-soluble.  - ###### How is Maqui XT® produced? Maqui XT® is produced through a solvent-free process, meaning no chemical solvents are used during extraction. The result is a clean-label, water-soluble Maqui concentrate that preserves the berry's natural anthocyanin profile, produced to MNL Group standards. - ###### What is the difference between Maqui XT® and Delphinol® or MaquiBright®? Maqui XT® is a standardized Maqui concentrate (≥ 25% anthocyanins, ≥ 20% delphinidins) designed as a versatile antioxidant ingredient for functional foods, beverages, and supplements. Delphinol® and MaquiBright® are MNL Group's branded, clinically studied extracts standardized to higher delphinidin content for specific metabolic, skin, and eye-health applications. All three originate from the same Patagonian Maqui Berry. - ###### What applications can Maqui XT® be used in? Maqui XT® is suitable for functional beverages (antioxidant shots, powdered and ready-to-drink mixes, smoothies), functional foods (gummies, bars, dairy and plant-based products), and dietary supplements (capsules, tablets, and powdered blends). Its excellent water solubility and standardized profile make it adaptable across formats. - ###### Where does the Maqui in Maqui XT® come from? The Maqui in Maqui XT® is wild-harvested in southern Chile, in collaboration with local communities under fair-trade and full-traceability standards. The Maqui Berry grows naturally in the Patagonian forests, where the regional climate contributes to its high anthocyanin content.   CONTACT US # Get in touch Discover how our standardized Maqui extracts can elevate your formulations with clinically validated antioxidant power. ![MNL-Group-bottle-hand-alone](https://www.mnl-group.com/hubfs/MNL-Group-bottle-hand-alone.webp "MNL-Group-bottle-hand-alone") [![Logo MNL Group](https://www.mnl-group.com/hubfs/Logo_MNLGROUP-3.svg "Logo MNL Group")](https://mnl-group.com/?hsLang=en) Follow us and get in touch to stay up to date with our latest news.
