Product introduction
Piperlongumine is a natural alkaloid found in Piper longum (long pepper) of the Piperaceae family, characterized by its distinctive α,β-unsaturated carbonyl structure and aromatic methoxy substituents. This compound demonstrates exceptional photostability and thermal stability, making it an important model molecule for studying the structure-activity relationships of natural products.
Feature
(1) Stability: Exhibits excellent stability.
(2) High purity: High-purity product can be obtained through synthetic refinement processes. High purity ensures better bioavailability.
Applications
Piperlongumine, as a natural food additive, demonstrates multiple functional benefits in food processing applications. Primarily, it imparts distinctive peppery aroma and mildly pungent flavor to food products, making it particularly valuable for various seasonings, sauces, and composite spice blends where it significantly enhances flavor complexity. Secondly, this bioactive component facilitates nutrient absorption by effectively improving the bioavailability of multiple active compounds including curcumin and various vitamins in human metabolism. Furthermore, piperlongumine exhibits exceptional antioxidant properties that contribute to food preservation.
