In the Genus Citrus, the most common bioflavonoids are naringin and hesperidin. They occur mostly in the <\/span>peel of some citrus<\/b> such as Seville bitter orange, sweet orange, grapefruit, lemon\u2026, although they may also be present to a lesser extent in their pulps, juices, leaves, seeds and flowers.<\/span><\/p>\n

The proportion these compounds are found in each citrus depends on the variety, the state of ripening of the fruit and the climatic conditions to which it has been exposed.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thanks to the multitude of pharmacological activities and beneficial properties of bioflavonoids, there is a growing interest in the pharmaceutical and food industries for their incorporation as functional ingredients in various applications: <\/span>nutraceutical supplements<\/a><\/span>, pharmaceutical products, human food and animal feed.<\/b>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row equal_columns=”true” css=”.vc_custom_1678175125249{margin-top: 1em !important;margin-bottom: 1em !important;background-color: #fdf8f1 !important;}” el_class=”banner-newsletter”][vc_column width=”1\/4″ css=”.vc_custom_1605104477598{padding: 0px !important;}”][vc_single_image image=”7708″ img_size=”360×360″ css=”.vc_custom_1648625400777{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-right: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;margin-left: 0px !important;}”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_custom_heading text=”DON’T MISS ANYTHING!

This glycosylated flavanone was discovered in 1857 by De Vry in the flowers of <\/span>grapefruit<\/b> trees (Pang et al., 2010) although currently the highest <\/span>extraction performance occurs from the peel.<\/b><\/p>\n

Different grapefruit varieties have a variable flavonoid content, ranging from 2186.47 to 9871.69 mg \/ kg fresh weight (Xi et al., 2014).<\/span><\/p>\n

In addition, the concentration of naringin in grapefruit peel depends on the ripeness of the citrus, being higher in immature fruits (Salmah et al., 1990).<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1678174840342{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]This citrus flavonoid is considered responsible for the <\/span>bitterness<\/b> of the fruits in which it is found. Due to this, it is widely used in food and carbonated beverage industries.<\/span><\/p>\n

Also, it is incorporated in the formulation of personal care products, cosmetics and perfumery. (Giannuzzo et al., 2000).<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row equal_columns=”true” css=”.vc_custom_1678175118526{margin-top: 1em !important;margin-bottom: 1em !important;background-color: #fdf8f1 !important;}” el_class=”banner-newsletter”][vc_column width=”1\/4″ css=”.vc_custom_1605104477598{padding: 0px !important;}”][vc_single_image image=”8147″ img_size=”360×360″ css=”.vc_custom_1661244306114{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-right: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;margin-left: 0px !important;}”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_custom_heading text=”REQUEST A

For example, naringin has different <\/span>biological activities and pharmacological effects<\/b> (Yin et al., 2015) that help to reduce the risk of different diseases.<\/span><\/p>\n

Like the rest of flavonoids, naringin has excellent <\/span>antioxidant properties<\/b> that promote healthy ageing. As it has been shown in different in vitro and in vivo studies, they may inhibit the production of different types of free radicals, reactive oxygen species and oxidase enzymes, reducing oxidative stress. (1)<\/span><\/p>\n

These compounds are also known for their intervention in <\/span>suppressing inflammatory processes<\/b> (Jung and Sang, 2014) and for their <\/span>antimicrobial activity<\/b> (C\u00e9liz et al., 2011).<\/span><\/p>\n

It differs from other bioflavonoids because of its bioactivity in the <\/span>regulation of heart rhythm<\/b>, its <\/span>cardioprotective effect<\/b> (Rani et al., 2013) and the ability to <\/span>improve the lipid profile<\/b>(Chanet et al., 2012), thanks to its ability to reduce levels of LDL cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood, in turn increasing HDL cholesterol levels. All of this contributes to the control of blood pressure and the prevention of the appearance of atherosclerosis.<\/span><\/p>\n

In addition, it has been shown <\/span>antidiabetic properties<\/b> (Shen W et al., 2018) and that it <\/span>promotes thermogenesis<\/b> (Silver HJ et al., 2011), which makes it an ideal ingredient in dietary supplement formulations to promote health, and oriented to the loss of body fat and weight.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column css=”.vc_custom_1605105816437{padding: 0px !important;}”][vc_custom_heading text=”FOOD AND BEVERAGE INDUSTRIES” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:19|text_align:center|color:%23b3101f” use_theme_fonts=”yes” el_class=”title_lcase”][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1678174918943{margin-left: 0px !important;padding-left: 0px !important;}”][vc_single_image image=”9652″ img_size=”full” css=”.vc_custom_1678174927365{margin-left: 0px !important;padding-left: 0px !important;}”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1681805589244{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]In food and beverage<\/span><\/a> industries, flavonoids are used to improve the quality and stability of products, acting as functional ingredients (flavourings, food colouring \u2026) and\/or as health-promoting components (antioxidants, anti-inflammatories \u2026)<\/span><\/p>\n

Naringin is mainly incorporated as a <\/span>flavouring and\/or bitter agent<\/b>. Among its most common applications we can find carbonated drinks, sweets, sauces, syrups \u2026 and to produce bakery and confectionery products. In some formulations of bitter drinks, it has been the perfect candidate <\/span>to replace quinine.<\/b><\/b>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1678174976094{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]In addition, based on the multitude of beneficial and healthy properties, it has become an ingredient of choice by <\/span>food and beverage industries which take care of health.<\/b>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column css=”.vc_custom_1605105823621{padding: 0px !important;}”][vc_custom_heading text=”ANIMAL FEED AND HEALTH” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:19|text_align:center|color:%23b3101f” use_theme_fonts=”yes” el_class=”title_lcase”][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”2\/5″ css=”.vc_custom_1678175060284{margin-left: 0px !important;padding-left: 0px !important;}”][vc_single_image image=”9656″ img_size=”full” css=”.vc_custom_1678175078633{margin-left: 0px !important;padding-left: 0px !important;}”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”3\/5″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1681806029273{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]Some studies with poultries have shown that certain citrus flavonoids improve the antioxidant state in the plasma and, as a result, the performance of them.<\/span><\/p>\n

In animal feed<\/a><\/span>\u00a0industries, Naringin is also incorporated as a <\/span>flavouring agent<\/b>, increasing the taste of the product by the activation of the taste receptors. In addition, its pleasant texture produces improvements in <\/span>palatability<\/b>.
