Product Overview
We are engaged in trading and exporting excellent quality Glycyrrhizinic Acid From Licorice Extract to our valuable clients. Latin Name: Radix Glycyrrhizae CAS No.: 1405-86-3 Molecular Formula: C42H62O16 Licorice extract is the active principle of liquorice root. It is a powerful sweetener, 3050 times as potent as sucrose (table sugar). Chemically, licorice extract is a triterpenoid saponin glycoside being either the Ca2+ or K+ salt of glycyrrhizic (or glycyrrhizinic) acid. Upon hydrolysis, the licorice root extract loses its sweet taste and is converted to the aglycone glycyrrhetinic acid plus two molecules of glucuronic acid. The acid form is not particularly water soluble, but its ammonium salt is soluble in water at pH greater than 4.5. Although sweet, the taste of licorice extract is different from that of sugar. The sweetness of licorice extract glycyrrhizin has a slower onset than sugar, and lingers in the mouth for some time. Additionally, its characteristic licorice flavor makes it unsuitable as a direct flavor substitute for sugar. Unlike the artificial sweetener aspartame, licorice extract glycyrrhizin maintains its sweetness under heating. Product Function : 1. Liquorice root could help enhance the transformation and transportation functions of the spleen and stomach. 2. Since the spleen dominates muscles and the liver controls tendons, liquorice root has excellent properties to relieve pain and cramps of smooth or skeletal muscles.
