Function of Neohesperidin
Neohesperidin, a citrus-derived flavanone glycoside, exerts potent free radical scavenging and anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting inflammatory factors and modulating stress-related pathways. It protects cardiovascular health by enhancing capillary toughness, improving microcirculation and maintaining normal vascular permeability.
Additionally, it regulates intestinal flora, supports liver function by reducing fat accumulation and hepatocyte damage and serves as a key precursor for NHDC — a high-intensity low-calorie sweetener 1,500–2,000 times sweeter than sucrose.
Its antioxidant and anti-aging properties also make it valuable for skin care, while it aids in balancing blood lipids and alleviating intestinal inflammation.
Application Area of Neohesperidin
Food Industry
- Raw material for synthesizing neohesperidin dihydrochalcone (NHDC), a high-intensity sweetener.
- Used as a flavor enhancer, bitterness masking agent, and preservative in beverages, candy, baked goods and low-sugar foods.
Pharmaceutical & Healthcare
- Cardiovascular health supplements to improve capillary fragility and microcirculation.
- Antioxidant and anti-inflammatory ingredients for liver protection and metabolic regulation.
- Used in oral and gastrointestinal healthcare formulations.
Cosmetics & Skin Care
- Antioxidant, anti-aging, and soothing components in creams, serums, and lotions.
- Inhibits melanin production, brightens skin and relieves redness and sensitivity.
Daily Chemical & Oral Care
- Added in toothpaste, mouthwash and chewing gum to enhance flavor and mask bitterness.
Feed & Animal Nutrition
- Used as a natural antioxidant and growth promoter to improve animal intestinal health and immunity.
Frequently Asked Questions
QWhat is Neohesperidin (CAS 13241-33-3)?
Neohesperidin is a naturally occurring flavanone glycoside found primarily in citrus fruits such as bitter orange (Citrus aurantium). It is widely used as a bioactive ingredient in food, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and animal nutrition due to its strong antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and cardiovascular-protective properties.
QWhat is the purity specification of your Neohesperidin?
Our Neohesperidin meets a minimum purity of 98%, with loss on drying ≤5%, ash ≤5%, and particle size of 98% passing 80 mesh. Heavy metal content is strictly controlled: total heavy metals ≤10 ppm, lead ≤2 ppm, arsenic ≤2 ppm, mercury ≤0.1 ppm, and cadmium ≤1 ppm.
QWhat is the relationship between Neohesperidin and NHDC?
Neohesperidin is the direct precursor for synthesizing Neohesperidin Dihydrochalcone (NHDC), a high-intensity, low-calorie sweetener that is approximately 1,500–2,000 times sweeter than sucrose. NHDC is widely used in the food and beverage industry as a sugar substitute and flavor modifier.
QHow should Neohesperidin be stored and what is its shelf life?
Neohesperidin should be stored in its original packaging, away from light, at an optimal temperature of 10–25 °C. Under these conditions, the shelf life is 24 months. Avoid exposure to moisture, heat, and direct sunlight to maintain product quality.
QWhat packaging options are available for Neohesperidin?
Neohesperidin is available in two packaging options: 1 kg per aluminium foil bag for laboratory or small-scale use, and 25 kg per fiber drum for bulk industrial orders. Both options are designed to protect the product from moisture and light during storage and transport.
QIs Neohesperidin Non-GMO and non-irradiated?
Yes. Our Neohesperidin is certified Non-GMO and Non-Irradiated. It also meets strict microbiological standards: total plate count ≤1,000 cfu/g, mold & yeast ≤100 cfu/g, and is free from E. Coli and Salmonella, ensuring it is safe for use in food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic applications.
