The application of phloridin can reduce blood sugar, has anti-tumor, anti-allergy and antioxidant activities, and has potential utilization value in food, beauty and health products industries. 1. Phloretin has been approved as a food additive. It is a characteristic phenolic substance in apples. Due to the variety and origin, the content of phloridin in different apples varies greatly. Therefore, its content can be used as an indicator to distinguish the origin and quality of apple juice. Phloretin can promote the absorption and utilization of genistein (genistein, inhibit the growth and metastasis of tumor cells), and the development of functional foods rich in phloretin and genistein has broad market prospects in cancer prevention and treatment. It is a very sweet natural sweetener that can be used as a sugar substitute for people with diabetes who have a sweet tooth. It is oxidized by polyphenol oxidase to produce a product that can be converted into bright Chemicalbook yellow dye, which has strong water solubility and can be used in the food processing industry to replace artificial dyes and avoid the toxic effects of artificial pigments. It has potential application value whether it is used as food additive or functional food. 2. Medicine Because phloretin is easily hydrolyzed in the human body to form phloretin, and the absorption rate of phloretin in the small intestine is low, phloretin and other compounds are often designed as polymers for drug development. 3. The antioxidant activity and anti-aging function of cosmetics phloridin have been confirmed by modern scientific research. Phloretin, a hydrolysate of phloretin, can competitively inhibit tyrosinase activity and interfere with melanin synthesis, and its whitening effect is better than many whitening products on the market. However, it should be noted that phloridin increases the expression of the tyrosinase gene by activating the cAMP signaling pathway, which leads to the production of melanin.
