Uses and synthesis of Glycyrrhizin powder

Glycyrrhizin powder is derived from the roots and rhizomes of licorice, a leguminous plant. It is the main active ingredient in licorice, with a content of about 10%. Glycyrrhizin, also known as glycyrrhizin, is a glycoside composed of glycyrrhetinic acid and 2 molecules of glucuronic acid. White to yellowish crystalline powder, odorless, has a specific sweet taste, sweetness is about 200 times that of sucrose. Glycyrrhizin, which is derived from licorice and has a special sweet taste, is mainly used in food, but also in other industries such as medicine, cosmetics and cigarettes.

Applications/Functions of Glycyrrhizin powder

1. Glycyrrhizin powder has a special sweet taste, its sweetness is about 250 times that of granulated sugar, and sodium glycyrrhizinate extracted from licorice is sweet even when diluted 4,000 times in aqueous solution.
2. Glycyrrhizin, as a drug, has anti-inflammatory and antiallergic effects. As a sweetener, it is widely used in various foods
3. Glycyrrhizin, also known as glycyrrhizin, is extracted from natural plant glycyrrhizin and is the main active component of glycyrrhizin. Glycyrrhizic acid has anti-inflammatory, antiviral, liver protection and detoxification and enhance immune function.
4. Glycyrrhizin powder has an adrenocorticoid-like effect, which can inhibit capillary permeability and relieve the symptoms of anaphylactic shock. It can reduce serum cholol in hypertensive patients.
