Description

Dihydro Homocapsaicin Ii is a capsaicinoid analog, a hydrogenated derivative of homocapsaicin. This compound is significant for its role in the study of capsaicin receptor (TRPV1) activity and its contribution to the overall pungency and sensory profile of chili peppers. It is primarily required by research institutions and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and food flavoring industries for analytical standards, sensory research, and product development.

Application

• Analytical Reference Standard: Used as a high-purity standard in HPLC, LC-MS, and GC-MS for the quantification and qualification of capsaicinoids in complex matrices.
• Neuroscience & Pharmacology Research: A key tool for studying the structure-activity relationship of vanilloids and their interaction with the TRPV1 receptor channel.
• Food Science & Sensory Analysis: Employed to calibrate and understand the precise contribution of individual capsaicinoids to the heat profile and flavor of chili peppers and related products.
• Nutraceutical Formulation: Serves as a characterized ingredient in the development of standardized extracts for dietary supplements targeting metabolic health.
• Topical Formulation R&D: Investigated for potential use in creams and patches, leveraging its capsaicin-like properties for topical applications.
