Phloridzin Introduction
Phloridzin is the glucoside of phloretin, which belongs to the dihydrochalcone class of flavonoids. Phloridzin is extracted from apples, apple bark and leaves, etc. It is a phenolic substance in apple trees. Phloridzin is a glycoside formed by combining phloretin and its glycoside with glucoside. Its degradation product, phloridzin, can effectively inhibit the activity of microorganisms. Clinical studies have shown that phloridzin has a good curative effect in the treatment of diabetes. It has a variety of important biological activities such as lowering blood sugar, improving memory, anti-allergy, anti-cancer, etc.. Phloridzin has potential utilization value in the food, beauty and health care products industries.
Functions:
1. Hypoglycemic effect: Phloridizin has the effect of reducing fasting blood sugar. The mechanism of phloridzin reducing blood sugar is that it competitively inhibits the transport of glucose molecules by glucose transporters (SGLTs and GLUTs).
2. Antioxidant effect: Phloridzin has obvious protective effect on oxidative damage caused by high-fat diet in Drosophila, enhances the activities of SOD and CAT, significantly prolong the lifespan of Drosophila, and has a strong antioxidant effect.
3. Antibacterial
4. Improve memory ability
Applications
1. Food Industry: Phloridzin has been approved as a food additive. It is a very sweet, natural sweetener that can be used as a sugar substitute for diabetics who love sweets. It is oxidized by polyphenol oxidase and the product can be converted into a bright yellow dye. This dye is highly water-soluble and can be used in the food processing industry to replace artificial dyes and avoid the toxic effects of synthetic dyes. It has potential application value whether it is used as a food additive or the development and utilization of functional food.
2. Medicine Industry : Since phloridzin is easily hydrolyzed in the human body to form phloretin, and the absorption rate of phloridzin in the small intestine is low. Phloridzin and other compounds are often designed as high molecular polymers for drug research and development.
3. Cosmetics Industry: The antioxidant activity and anti-aging properties of phloridzin have been confirmed by modern scientific research. The hydrolyzed product of phloridzin, phloretin, can competitively inhibit the activity of tyrosinase and interfere with the synthesis of melanin, and its whitening effect is better than many whitening products on the market.
