Application

Stevioside hydrate has been used as a standard in high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) for quantification of steviol glycosides.
Stevioside-induced ROS-mediated apoptosis was studied in human breast cancer cells.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Stevioside hydrate is a diterpene glycoside present in Stevia sp.
Stevioside is a noncaloric natural sweetener, 300 times more potent than sucrose. It inhibits transepithelial transport of p-aminohippurate (PAH) by interfering with the organic anion transport system. At 0.5-1 mM, it showed no interaction with any organic anion transporters (OAT).
Stevioside reportedly has genotoxic effects in cultured mammalian cells.

Preparation Note

Stevioside solutions should be prepared in DMSO. Highly pure stevioside has very poor water solubility.
