Uses and functions of Hydroxycitric Acid Powder

Hydroxycitric acid ((-)-HCA) is an important organic acid, it is a derivative of citric acid, in the natural hibiscus plant contains a lot of its molecular formula is C6H8O8, it is composed of polyalcohols and polyacids of highly active

It is a highly active molecule composed of polyol and polyacid, which can be used to prepare health care products with high content of calcium and potassium salts per unit molecule, and can also be used as a pre-drug intermediate of some new drugs by using its multi-activity functional groups.

It can also be used as intermediates of some new drugs, and can be used to produce non-toxic special plasticisers and other fine chemicals through esterification reaction.

Citrate lyase catalyses the cleavage of extra-mitochondrial citrate to oxaloacetate and acetyl-CoA.Citrate lyase is widely distributed in animal tissues and is thought to have a role in both the conversion of carbohydrates to fats as well as gluconeogenesis.

(-)-HCA inhibits the cleavage of citric acid to oxaloacetate and acetyl-CoA, a molecule that plays a key role in the storage of energy as fat, by inhibiting the activity of citrate lyase outside the mitochondria.

Moreover, (-)-HCA may act only at a certain metabolic level and does not act directly on the central nervous system as those typical appetite suppressants do, so that pre-consumption of (-)-HCA and aerobic exercise after nutrient uptake by the organism (posta-bsorptively) enhances glycogen neogenesis while contributing to endurance.

Moreover, carnitine and bioactive chromium may also help to enhance this endurance-enhancing effect of (-)-HCA.

Bioactive pharmacological effects of Hydroxycitric Acid Raw Powder

It is found mainly in the fruit hulls of Garcinia cambogia, Garciniaindica and Garciniaatroviridis, which are native to the Indian subcontinent and western Sri Lanka.

The fruit shells of these plants are commonly used as a flavouring condiment for curries instead of tamarind or lemon, and also as preservatives and herbal tonics, among others.

In addition, hydroxycitric acid is also present in the genus Hibiscus.

Production method of Hydroxycitric Acid Powder

The synthesis method was based on citric acid as raw material, and aconitic acid was produced by dehydration, and then hydroxycitric acid was produced by oxidation of aconitic acid.

The optimised processes of aconitic acid and hydroxycitric acid were studied separately. The optimised process conditions for aconitic acid were 1 mol of hydroxycitric acid with 270 mol of 56% sulphuric acid, and the reaction was carried out at 140°C for 7 h, resulting in the decomposition of aconitic acid at a melting point of 186°C for boutique products; the waste acid and undecomposed citric acid were recycled, and the citric acid was recycled.

The waste acid and undecomposed citric acid were recycled, and the recovery rate of citric acid reached 28%, and the recovery rate of concentrated sulfuric acid reached 65%.

The optimised process conditions of hydroxycitric acid is to n oxidant and n aconitic acid ratio of 2:1, reaction time 16h, reaction temperature 50 ℃ to get hydroxycitric acid, product yield of about 80%.
