Hesperetin Extract Powder (Citrus-Derived Flavonoid Standardized by HPLC)
Overview
Hesperetin is a naturally occurring flavonoid compound found primarily in citrus fruits belonging to the Rutaceae family. It is commonly obtained from citrus peels such as orange, lemon, and other related botanical sources. As an aglycone form of hesperidin, hesperetin is often produced through extraction and purification processes that convert glycoside flavonoids present in citrus raw materials into a more bioavailable flavonoid compound.
In ingredient manufacturing, hesperetin extract is typically supplied as a standardized powder with defined purity levels verified through high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Standardization ensures consistent flavonoid concentration, which is important for formulation control in nutraceutical, functional food, and cosmetic applications.
Due to its polyphenolic structure, hesperetin has been studied in the context of oxidative balance, metabolic processes…
