Natural Flavonoid Naringin: Health Benefits, Applications & China Suppliers from Leading Factory
Product Introduction
Product Name & CAS
Name: Naringin
CAS Number: 10236-47-6
Molecular Details & Spec
Molecular Formula: C27H32O14
Molecular Weight: 580.53
Specification: 92%, 95%, 98% HPLC
Plant Origin
It mainly exists in the peel and pulp of Citrus grandis, Citrus Paradisi, and orange. It is extracted from the dried outer peel of the fruit of the Rutaceae family, such as the pomelo, which has not yet ripened is close to ripening, and can also be obtained from medicinal materials such as the immature fruit of the bitter orange and the immature fruit of the sour orange.
Physico-Chemical Property
Naringin is a complex of glucose, rhamnose and grapefruit ligands. White to light yellow crystalline powder. Usually contains 6 ~ 8 crystal water, melting point 83℃. After drying at 110℃ to constant weight, a crystal containing two water of crystallization was obtained with melting point of 171℃. Naringin has an extremely bitter taste and is still bitter in aqueous solution at a concentration of 20mg/kg. Slightly soluble in water, easily soluble in hot water, ethanol, acetone and warm glacial acetic acid. There is phenolic hydroxyl group in the structure and its aqueous solution is weakly acidic. After hydrolyzing and hydrogenation, the product "gardanoside dihydrochalcone" is a sweetener, and its sweetness is about 150 times that of sucrose.
Pharmacological Action
Naringin has antitussive, expectorant, anti-lung inflammation and other pharmacological effects.
Product Function
Naringin has antitussive, expectorant, anti-lung inflammation and other pharmacological effects. It provides the following key benefits:
Lower Blood Sugar: Naringin can lower blood sugar. Fresh pomelo juice contains insulin-like components that can reduce blood sugar and is a good food therapy for obese patients. It acts as an expectorant and cough suppressant, utilizing the outer layer of the pomelo peel, namely the commonly used traditional Chinese medicine, tangerine red.
Respiratory Relief: Naringin is a good medicine for treating chronic cough and asthma in the elderly and cold phlegm asthma.
Hypolipidemic Mechanism: The hypolipidemic mechanism of Naringin may be related to the inhibition of hepatic cholesterol synthesis and the promotion of cholesterol secretion.
Anticancer Activity: Naringin has anticancer activity and can inhibit the growth and metastasis of tumor cells.
Natural Agent: Naringin, as a natural anticancer agent, has low toxicity and selectivity, and has potential application value in the field of cancer prevention and treatment.
