Analysis on the active constituents of Hops (Humulus lupulus)

In order to develop the synthesis utilization of hops, aroma and bitter hops were analyzed for the contents of total water-solubility extracts, water-solubility sugars, water-solubility proteins, total amino acids, total polyphenols, total flavonoids, total proteins, total ashes and α-acids, β-acids...

Description
Summary:In order to develop the synthesis utilization of hops, aroma and bitter hops were analyzed for the contents of total water-solubility extracts, water-solubility sugars, water-solubility proteins, total amino acids, total polyphenols, total flavonoids, total proteins, total ashes and α-acids, β-acids. The results showed: the content of active constituents were higher in aroma hops than in bitter hops except for resins (α-acids and β-acids); there were high content of water-solubility active constituents such as water-solubility sugars, flavanoids, ashes and amino acids both in aroma hops and bitter hops. Therefore, hops may be a multifunctional resource that can be exploited and utilized in nutrition, health-protection and medicine.
