General description

Eriodictyolis a bitter-masking dietary flavonoid primarily extracted from yerba Santa Clause (Eriodictyon californicum) and Dracocephalum rupestre, but also present in many other citrus fruits, medicinal plants, and vegetables.

Application

Eriodictyolmay has been used to study its mechanism on IgE/Ag-induced type I hypersensitivity inhibition at the level of mast cell degranulation and ceramide kinase activity. It may also be used to understand its potential antidiabetic activity and its neuroprotective activity via activation of the Nrf2/ARE signaling pathway.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Eriodictyolis absorbed in the body slowly and can be found in plasma and urine as homoeriodictyol, a conjugated form. It has many pharmacological properties such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, anti-diabetic, anti-obesity, neuroprotective, cardioprotective, and hepatoprotective.

Packaging

Bottomless glass bottle. Contents are inside inserted fused cone.

Other Notes

For this product we use the non-stereospecific CAS number. It is expected that the natural enantiomer is predominant, however the substance is prone to racemization in solution. The product is therefore not specified stereospecifically and is only recommended to be used for non-stereospecific analysis.
