Pharmacological Action
A
Broad Pharmacological Effects
Quercetin is a natural flavonoid, which have anti-tumor, anti-oxidation, anti-infection, immune suppression, cardiovascular protection and blood sugar regulation and other pharmacological effects.
B
Respiratory & Cardiovascular Benefits
Quercetin has a good expectorant and antitussive effect, and has a certain antiasthmatic effect, is used to treat chronic bronchitis. In addition, it also has the effects of reducing blood pressure, enhancing the resistance of capillaries, reducing the frag of capillaries, reducing blood lipid, dilating coronary artery, and increasing coronary blood flow, which has an auxiliary therapeutic effect on patients with coronary heart disease hypertension.
C
Liver Protection
Quercetin can prevent and treat various liver injuries, such as fatty liver, cirrhosis, and hepatic fibrosis. In recent years it has been found that Quercetin can significantly reduce the concentration of triglycerides in the serum of rats with fatty liver, inhibit the activity of aspart transaminase, and has a good effect on the treatment of fatty liver.
Product Function
A
Osteoporosis & Disease Prevention
Quercetin prevents and treats osteoporosis, Quercetin has been used in clinical trials and animal studies to prevent or treat a variety of diseases such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), cancer, autoimmune disorders and chronic cardiovascular disease due to its powerful antioxidant effects.
B
Powerful Antioxidant Effect
Antioxidant effect, the most important and basic function of Quercetin, is related to its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory, antifrotic, antitumor, hypoglycemic, and lipid-lowering effects. Free radicals can cause cell membrane lesions, gene mutations, and erode tissues of the organism, inducing various diseases of the tissues and organs of the organism. The antioxidant property of quercetin can effectively reduce or eliminate the damage caused free radicals.
C
Anti-tumor Properties
Anti-tumor, Quercetin can significantly inhibit the action of carcinogens, inhibit the growth of malignant cells in vitro, and inhibit the synthesis DNA, RNA and protein of ehrlich ascites tumor cells.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is Quercetin and where does it originate?
Quercetin is a natural flavonoid that exists in the flowers, leaves, and fruits of many plants, mostly in the form of glycosides (such as rutin and hyperin). It is synthesized from Rutin and has a wide range of pharmacological effects.
What are the physical and chemical properties of Quercetin?
Quercetin dihydrate forms yellow acicular crystals. It is almost insoluble in cold or hot water and ether, but soluble in glacial acetic acid, alkaline aqueous solutions (turning yellow), and boiling ethanol. Its ethanol solution has a very bitter taste.
How does Quercetin benefit the respiratory system?
It has excellent expectorant, antitussive, and antiasthmatic effects, making it highly useful in the treatment of chronic bronchitis.
Can Quercetin help protect the liver?
Yes, Quercetin can prevent and treat various liver injuries, including fatty liver, cirrhosis, and hepatic fibrosis. It significantly reduces serum triglyceride concentrations and inhibits aspartate transaminase activity.
Why is the antioxidant property of Quercetin so important?
The antioxidant effect is Quercetin's most basic function. It helps reduce or eliminate damage caused by free radicals, which can cause cell membrane lesions and gene mutations. This property is closely linked to its antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and anti-tumor effects.
What are the primary specifications available for Quercetin?
The standard specifications for Quercetin are 95% HPLC and 98% UV.
