7OH Extract Concentration — this guide covers it end to end: what the specification actually means, how each batch is verified, what it costs per milligram, and what to check before you buy.
Extract concentration figures are the most commonly misunderstood numbers in this category. Here is what each convention means and which ones are actually comparable.

The Problem With Concentration Claims
Three different conventions circulate in this category, and they are not interchangeable:
- Milligrams per unit — e.g. 125mg per tablet
- Percentage by weight — e.g. a 40% extract
- Extraction ratios — e.g. “20x extract”
Retailers mix these freely, which means buyers end up comparing figures that describe different quantities. Understanding each is the only way to compare products honestly.
Milligrams Per Unit
This is the clearest convention: an absolute quantity attached to a specific unit. “125mg 7-hydroxymitragynine per tablet” means exactly that, and it can be verified by HPLC.
It is also the only convention that tells you what you have without needing to know the unit weight. If every product used it, comparison would be trivial.
Percentages
A percentage describes concentration — the proportion of the material that is the target compound. A “40% extract” means 40% of the material by weight is the target alkaloid.
The problem: a percentage tells you nothing about the total. A 40% extract sounds stronger than a 20% extract, but a 200mg serving of the 20% extract contains 40mg of alkaloid while a 25mg serving of the 40% extract contains only 10mg.
Percentages are meaningless without the serving weight. Convert every percentage claim to an absolute milligram figure before you compare it to anything: (percentage ÷ 100) × (serving weight in mg).
Extraction Ratios (“20x”)
Ratio labelling describes how much raw botanical went in to produce the extract — “20x” implies 20 units of leaf were used per unit of extract. It is sometimes called a multiplication factor.
Three problems with ratios:
- It describes input, not output. How much leaf it took says nothing about how much alkaloid ended up in the extract.
- No standard definition. The accounting varies between producers.
- It is not a dosage figure. “20x” is not a quantity of anything a buyer can use.
Treat ratios as marketing language, not specification. There is no fixed conversion from a ratio to a milligram figure.
Comparing Correctly
| What you are shown | What to do |
|---|---|
| Milligrams per unit | Compare directly. This is the gold standard. |
| Percentage | Convert to mg: (percent ÷ 100) × serving weight |
| Extraction ratio (x) | Not convertible. Ignore for dosage purposes. |
| “Total alkaloids” in mg | Ask which alkaloids and in what proportions |
Once every product is converted to milligrams of the named alkaloid per unit, comparison becomes straightforward — including price comparison. See Price Per Milligram Guide.
How Buttons Is Expressed
We use absolute milligrams of the named alkaloid because it is the only convention a buyer can verify independently. It is confirmed by HPLC on every lot, and the report is retrievable with your batch code — see Lab Tests & COAs.

7OH Extract Concentration: Frequently Asked Questions
Short answers to the questions buyers ask most often about 7oh extract concentration.
Which is better — 7oh extract concentration or a cheaper alternative?
Neither is automatically better. Compare what each label actually declares: total extract weight is a marketing figure, while the 7-hydroxymitragynine number is the one that determines what is in the tablet. On that measure 7oh extract concentration is unusually easy to judge, because the 125mg figure is stated per tablet and confirmed per lot.
How does 7oh extract concentration compare on cost per milligram?
Cost per milligram is the only comparison that survives a change of pack size. A single Buttons 7OH bottle lands at 5.88¢ per milligram, the three-bottle bundle at roughly 5.04¢, and the twenty-bottle wholesale case at 4.47¢. Run the same arithmetic on any competitor before you decide.
What should I check before choosing 7oh extract concentration?
Three things: whether the alkaloid figure is declared by name rather than implied, whether a per-lot certificate exists for the specific lot code on your bottle, and whether the format matches how you intend to use it. 7oh extract concentration is priced for buyers who want all three answers in writing.
Is 7oh extract concentration a good fit for a first order?
It is a reasonable first order if you intend to use the scoring to work in smaller increments. A quartered 125mg tablet gives you a 31.25mg piece, which is a more precise starting point than a single-unit powder or a liquid measured by eye.
How do I verify the batch behind 7oh extract concentration?
Read the lot code printed on the bottle, email it to us, and we return the matching HPLC potency report along with the heavy-metal and microbial screens for that run. You are checking a document that was produced before the sale, not a claim made after it.

7OH Extract Concentration: Key Takeaways
- What 7OH extract concentrations actually mean: milligrams versus percentages versus extraction ratios, and how to convert each into a comparable figure.
- Every Buttons 7OH tablet declares 125mg of 7-hydroxymitragynine by name and is verified per lot by HPLC, not estimated.
- Batch reports are retrievable by the lot code printed on your bottle — email it to us and we return the matching certificate.
- Cost per milligram falls from 5.88¢ on a single bottle to 4.47¢ at the 20-bottle wholesale tier.
- 21+ verification applies on every order in every jurisdiction, without exception, and these products are sold as botanical research materials.
