Hesperidin and Hesperetin: What's the Difference?
Hesperetin and Hesperidin are different substances. Hesperetin is a chemical substance with a molecular formula of C16H14O6. It is mainly derived from young fruits of the citrus genus of the
Rutaceae family, which belongs to one of the dihydroflavonoids. It is light yellow needle-like crystal or powder. Hesperidin is also known as Chuanpisu; Dihydroflavonoid glycosides, molecular
formula C28H34O15, are white or light yellow crystalline powder; odorless and tasteless. It is easily soluble in pyridine or dimethylformamide, but insoluble in ethanol or water. But the functions
of the two are similar. Both have the functions of anti-oxidation and elimination of free radicals, regulating the cardiovascular system, and can protect the nervous system, anti-allergic and
dermatitis, anti-bacteria and microorganisms, anti-cancer and genotoxicity.
