heraclenin - Introduction
Heraclenin is a chemical substance, also known as cunerin or curcumone, whose chemical name is (2E,4E)-2,6,10,14,19-pentamethylicosa-2,4,6,14-tetraen-1-one. The following is a description of its nature, use, preparation and safety information:
Nature:
Heraclenin is a colorless, crystalline or powdery substance. Its molecular formula is C25H36O and its molecular weight is 352.55g/mol. It is almost insoluble in water at normal temperature, but soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol, dimethyl sulfoxide and acetic acid. It has a special smell and bitter taste.
Use:
Heraclenin is generally used as a Chinese herbal medicine and is widely used in the field of traditional Chinese medicine. It is commonly used to enhance the function of kidney, impotence, spleen and stomach, Shu Jin Huo Luo and other efficacy of drug preparations, commonly used in traditional Chinese medicine prescription ingredients. It is also used as a food additive to increase the flavor of food.
Preparation Method:
Heraclenin is usually obtained by extraction from the Chinese herbal medicine Radix et Rhizoma. Extraction methods generally include water distillation, solvent extraction and supercritical fluid extraction. Among them, supercritical fluid extraction is a more efficient and environmentally friendly extraction method.
Safety Information:
Regarding the safety of Heraclenin, no serious toxicity or side effects have been reported. However, as a chemical substance, it should still follow the principle of safe use. In the use of the process should pay attention to protective measures, avoid inhalation, contact with the skin or eating. In case of allergic symptoms or adverse reactions, the use should be stopped immediately and the advice of a doctor should be consulted. In addition, Heraclenin should avoid mixing with other drugs or substances to avoid unforeseen chemical reactions or negative effects.
