Hello everyone, I have been working with Passiflora incarnata for several years and have seen very little information on the web regarding extraction teks. I have used this tek many times with great results and very high yields.

Passiflora incarnata extraction
Step 1
Powderize plant material "I have found leaves to have highest content".
Step 2
To 200 ml warm distilled water, add 2-4 drops lemon juice. "vinegar, etc".
Step 3
Add powdered plant material to water and mix well.
Step 4
Strain plant material through coffee filters, save liquid.
Step 5
Repeat step 4 two times.
Step 6
To the water solution add 1-4 drops ammonia./Mix well.
Note: you will notice white precipitate form.
Step 7
Allow the solution to sit for several hours "Fridge speeds up the process".
Step 8
You will notice light yellow crystals precipitate and fall to the bottom.
Step 9
After all crystals have settled siphon off top water layer and discard, Add more warm distilled water and let crystals settle again.
Note: repeat this process until water is clear.
Step 10
When your water layer is clear, pour the solution into glass evap dish and fan dry.
Step 11
You will be left with zero residue crystaline alkaloids on the dish. Note: the alkaloids resemble rectangular plates.
Step 12
This extract can further be purified by redisolving in ethanol, and evaping.
This method will leave you with white/clear crystaline alks.
