alloin - Introduction
Aloin is a natural compound extracted from aloe, also known as anthracene. It has a pale yellow crystalline powder form, is odorless and has a bitter taste. Aloin has good solubility, soluble in ethanol, chloroform, ether solvents, insoluble in water. It has a variety of biological activities, such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and anti-tumor.
Glucosylanthrone is an aloin compound formed by the combination of glucose and anthrone. Compared with aloin, it has stronger biological activity and stability. Glucosyl anthrone is often used in pharmaceutical preparations, such as anti-tumor drugs and anti-inflammatory drugs. It can also be used in the manufacture of cosmetics and health products, with anti-aging and moisturizing effects.
Aloe-emodin is one of the main active ingredients in aloe, and it is also an aloin compound. It has a variety of biological activities similar to aloin, such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, inhibition of tumor growth. Aloe-emodin is widely used in the field of medicine, for the preparation of anti-cancer drugs, anti-inflammatory drugs and skin care products.
The preparation of aloin, glucosyl anthrone and aloe-emodin is mainly obtained through the extraction and purification process of aloe plant. The specific steps include cutting, extracting, dissolving, filtering, concentrating and crystallizing aloe leaves.
Regarding safety information, these compounds are generally safe for the human body, but they should also be used in an appropriate amount. Large doses may cause some adverse reactions, such as gastrointestinal discomfort, skin allergies and liver and kidney damage. For pharmaceutical preparations and cosmetics, they should be used in accordance with relevant regulations, and safety assessments such as skin sensitivity tests should be carried out before use. At the same time, aloe vera plant may be a potential risk to certain groups of people (such as pregnant and lactating women), so it is best to consult a doctor or expert before use.
