Product Information

• Name: Limonol
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Limonin is a natural limonoid found in the peels of citrus fruits. Limonin has been shown to be potent inducers of cytochrome P450 enzymes and this may account for the interactive effects that are observed when it is administered with other compounds. The chemical diversity of limonin and its metabolites has been demonstrated by nmr spectra, which showed differences in chemical shifts that were consistent with differences in functional groups. Limonin has also been shown to be an inhibitor of bacterial growth, as well as a potent inhibitor of Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Escherichia coli. Limonol is a mixture of limonin and ethanol. It exhibits potent inhibitory activity against bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Escherichia coli.
