Naringenin and Naringin: What's the Difference?
Both naringenin and naringin are different substances. Naringenin (naringenin) is a natural organic compound with a molecular formula of C15H12O5. It is a yellow powder, soluble in ethanol, ether and benzene. The seed coat is mainly derived from cashew nuts of the anacardiaceae plant. Naringin is a complex of glucose, rhamnose and Naringenin. Naringin powder is white to light yellow crystalline powder. Normally, it contains 6 to 8 crystal waters with a melting point of 83°C. Dry to constant weight at 110°C to obtain crystals containing 2 crystal waters, with a melting point of 171°C. Naringin can be used as an edible additive, mainly for gum, refreshing drinks, etc.
