Description

Isoliquiritin is a bioactive flavonoid compound, specifically a chalcone glycoside, derived from the root of the licorice plant (*Glycyrrhiza* species). This high-purity ingredient is valued for its significant antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, making it a sought-after component for advanced research and product development. It serves as a critical raw material for manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and cosmetic industries seeking natural, efficacious actives.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Research: Investigated for its potential hepatoprotective, neuroprotective, and cardioprotective effects in drug discovery and development.
• Nutraceutical Formulations: Used as a key active ingredient in dietary supplements targeting oxidative stress and supporting overall wellness.
• Cosmetic & Skincare Products: Incorporated into serums, creams, and lotions for its skin-brightening, anti-aging, and soothing properties.
• Functional Food & Beverages: Added to health-focused products to enhance their antioxidant profile and functional benefits.
• Biochemical Research: Serves as a standard or reagent in laboratory studies focusing on flavonoid metabolism and biological pathways.
• Traditional Medicine Enhancement: Used to standardize and potentiate modern herbal preparations based on licorice extracts.

Quality Control

Our Isoliquiritin is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity verification and identity confirmation by IR and UV spectroscopy, to ensure it meets stringent specifications for research and commercial use. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical parameters are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its light-sensitive and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to handle under an inert atmosphere for long-term storage and to minimize exposure to air and moisture.
