Xanthohumol comes from hops (Humulus Lupulus L.) and is extracted and prepared from the female inflorescence of hops. In modern industry, microbial synthesis is a sustainable alternative. Xanthohumol is a flavonoid component and an important flavor substance with multiple biological activities.
Xanthohumol is the main flavonoid in beer female flowers.
Flavonoid compounds have antioxidant, anti-radiation, anti-viral, anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effects. Studies have shown that xanthohumol has a higher scavenging rate for oxygen free radicals in the body than other antioxidants.
Hop extract has an inhibitory effect on a variety of bacteria, such as Staphylococcus aureus, Pneumococcus, and Corynebacterium diphtheriae.
