Botanical Morphology & Raw Material
Phytochemical Profile
The primary bioactive constituent is Glycyrrhizin (a triterpenoid saponin), responsible for the sweet taste and anti-inflammatory properties. The profile is enriched with flavonoids such as Liquiritin and Isoliquiritin (giving the yellow color), and isoflavonoids like Glabridin, which is highly valued in dermatology for its tyrosinase-inhibiting capabilities.
Commercial Applications
- Pharmaceuticals: Antitussive syrups, anti-ulcer medications, and hepatoprotective formulations.
- Cosmeceuticals: Skin brightening serums and anti-inflammatory creams (targeting Glabridin content).
- Nutraceuticals: Digestive health supplements and adrenal support blends.
- Flavoring Agents: Tobacco curing and confectionery sweetening.
