After reading lots of papers, the RG3 ginsenoside is the one I am interested in. Been using panax ginseng (natures way) for about week n half now with pretty decent results, but it either seems tollerance quickly develops, so I wanna turn it up a notch and go for for a RG3 standardized extract but there do not seem to be any out there?

Appreciate the input but I honestly doubt theres a market for it.
All I could find is this:

Bit of an odd website if you ask me, never heard of it.

I highly doubt they are quantifying Rg3. I just spoke to my lab about it, and USP has no methods or standards for Rg3 testing. That's neither for identity or concentration. Sigma Aldrich has an Rg3 standard. However, the lab would need to develop the presence and quantification methods from scratch.
Ask them for their analysis of the Rg3 content. I'd be surprised if they give you anything, though.
I might consider developing the methods for Rg3 analysis. It has me curious.
