Frequently Asked Questions
What is the use of glabridin?
Glabridin is an isoflavane isolated from licorice root (Glycyrrhiza glabra) supplied as a characterized specialty ingredient for cosmetic and personal-care formulation. It is also used as an analytical reference material and in R&D. RawSource supplies it to a defined polyphenol specification (C20H20O4).
Which food contains glabridin?
Glabridin occurs in the root of licorice (Glycyrrhiza glabra), from which it is isolated. The supplied material is a purified isoflavane characterized for formulation and analytical use rather than a food ingredient. CAS is 59870-68-7.
What is glabridin made from?
It is isolated from licorice root and is a single polyphenolic compound, an isoflavane with molecular formula C20H20O4. It is supplied as a defined specialty ingredient with a Certificate of Analysis confirming purity. Reference CAS 59870-68-7 on procurement documents.
Is glabridin the same as glycyrrhizin?
No. Glabridin is an isoflavane (C20H20O4), while glycyrrhizin is a saponin glycoside; both occur in licorice but are distinct compounds with different structures and uses. Confirm you are sourcing glabridin by CAS 59870-68-7 to avoid material confusion.
How is bulk glabridin packaged and quoted?
It is supplied as a characterized powder with CoA and SDS, with packaging scaled to order quantity. Because purity grade and volume drive cost, we quote per request rather than publish a price. Send a bulk RFQ with your required purity and quantity for a current quote.
