It belongs to the flavanonol subclass of flavonoids and is characterized by a specific polyphenolic structure with multiple hydroxyl groups. As a purified phytochemical ingredient, dihydromyricetin is commonly used in dietary supplement and functional food formulations.
Commercial dihydromyricetin powder is produced through extraction and purification processes applied to plant raw materials. These processes typically involve solvent extraction, filtration, concentration, and crystallization to isolate and refine the target compound. The resulting ingredient is standardized to a high purity level, commonly reaching 98% as determined by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).
