Expert Verdict
Same as #5, plus the additional extraction and filtration steps may concentrate certain metabolites, requiring tighter QC on citrinin and monacolin K levels. The "extract filtrate" processing chain (fermentation → extraction → filtration) yields a lighter, clearer liquid ideal for aqueous formulations, retaining the antimicrobial and conditioning benefits of the parent ferment
