Capsaicin Oleoresin

Capsaicin oleoresin is a group of naturally occurring vanillylamide alkaloids responsible for the pungency of chili peppers. It is extracted and refined from premium dried red chili peppers using modified solvent extraction, followed by separation, concentration, and purification to yield crystalline flakes or needles.
The main active components, capsaicin and dihydrocapsaicin, are the key compounds that provide the characteristic heat of chili. Low-concentration forms, such as chili extract and capsicum oleoresin, are widely used as flavoring ingredients in the food industry. In addition, this raw material is also utilized in pharmaceutical research, specialty materials, and agricultural formulation development.
