More Information about Capsaicin Powder

Overview
Capsaicin powder, also known as capsaicin, is an organic compound with a molecular formula of C18H27NO3. In nature, it exists in Solanaceae plants Capsicum annuum and its varieties, which are monoclinic crystals and rectangular flakes precipitated from petroleum ether. The maximum UV absorption is at 227nm, 281nm (ε7000; 2500). It is an extremely spicy vanillamide alkaloid.

Natural Capsaicin powder is a high value-added product extracted from Solanaceae capsicum, and is an extremely spicy vanillyl amino alkaloid. D.J.Bennet et al. analyzed its chemical composition with modern instrumental analysis methods such as chromatography and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and found that, as a secondary metabolite of Capsicum, it is derived from amino acids and mainly exists in capsicum fruit endoderm tissue. (seed parts) and diaphragm tissue, the content is about 0.1% to 0.4%, and the content of chemicalbook skin and seeds is very small. It has pharmacological effects such as anti-inflammatory and analgesic, cardiovascular protection, anti-cancer and digestive system protection. In medicine, the ointment has special analgesic effect on rheumatoid arthritis, herpes zoster, bruises, etc.; in health care, it can be used for Weight loss, etc.; combined with morphine can prolong the analgesic time, especially for advanced cancer has a better analgesic effect. In addition, with the adjustment of pepper concentration, it can also be widely used in food industry, military ammunition, pest control and other aspects. Physical and chemical properties

Capsaicin powder pure and its ointment preparations have been included in the 24th edition of the United States Pharmacopoeia and are widely used in the treatment of: arthritis, muscle pain, back pain, sports sprains, and postherpetic neuralgia.

What are the applications of using Capsaicin?
  1. As a food additive. Chili peppers are used as food seasonings, and some shallow processing of chili peppers is required to make chili sauce and so on. However, when these products are eaten, the capsaicin has to undergo a leaching process, and the bioavailability of capsaicin is not high. At the same time, the alkali continues to be released in the intestine, irritating the intestinal wall, which can cause abdominal discomfort, and even cause anal burning pain and induce hemorrhoids. Therefore, the extraction and separation of capsaicin from capsicum, as an additive in food processing, is beneficial to the control of spiciness and the full absorption and utilization of capsaicin.
 
  1. In terms of medicine and health care: my country is one of the earliest countries to use chili peppers as medicines. Chili peppers are used in traditional Chinese medicine to treat stomach cold and rheumatism. Modern research shows that capsaicin has anti-inflammatory, analgesic, anesthesia and detoxification effects. Its analgesic effect is equivalent to that of morphine, but it is more durable than morphine. It is effective in postherpetic neuralgia, trigeminal neuralgia, and diabetic neuralgia , rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, psoriasis, alopecia, etc. have significant curative effect. In addition, capsaicin can also inhibit the occurrence of malignant tumors, and also has special effects on the treatment of skin diseases and weight loss.
 
  1. Applied to marine antifouling coatings: some attached organisms in the ocean, such as barnacles, seaweed, shellfish, etc., are largely attached to the bottom of ships, buoys, wharves, bridge piers, seawater pipelines and aquaculture cages and nets. It is huge and grows very fast, which can slow down the speed of ships, increase fuel, accelerate metal corrosion, block pipes and cage meshes, and unbalance underwater facilities, causing great harm to human development of the ocean. Capsaicin is used as a repellant , has a strong repelling effect, and does not kill marine life, has obvious ecological benefits.
 
  1. As an anti-ant and anti-rat repellent in wire and cable: PVC and polyethylene are more and more widely used as insulation and sheathing materials in the wire and cable industry. In addition to being damaged by oxygen, heat, light, force and chemical erosion In addition, it will also be damaged by termites, mice or hares, resulting in power outages, communication interruptions, and even short circuits, causing fires. Using the strong spicy taste of capsaicin, the oral mucosa and taste nerves of rodents can be strongly stimulated. And abandoning chewing, while killing termites, has broad application prospects in wire and cable.
