Pharmaceutical Materials

Taxifolin, also known as dihydroquercetin, is a naturally occurring flavonoid compound widely distributed in plants such as larch, Douglas fir, and certain citrus fruits. Renowned for its potent antioxidant properties, taxifolin effectively scavenges free radicals and inhibits lipid peroxidation, making it valuable in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and food industries. Its biological activities extend to anti-inflammatory, anticancer, and antimicrobial effects, supported by studies demonstrating its ability to inhibit collagenase and exhibit anti-tyrosinase activity. In cosmetics, taxifolin is utilized for its skin-lightening and anti-aging properties, while in medicine, it shows promise in treating hypertension, cardiovascular diseases, and radiation protection. Additionally, its industrial applications include serving as an antioxidant in fuels and polymers, enhancing material stability and longevity.

Usage： Used in the manufacture of treatment of hypertension, delaying aging, genetic abnormalities, anti-radiation, improving immunity, and inhibiting the function of cancer cells. This product has the effect of inhibiting and preventing skin cancer.
