Crocin is the chemical constituent isolated from the Saffron, the dried trifid stigma of the plant Crocus sativus L. and also from the fruits of Gardenia(Gardenia jasminoides Ellis) Of the carotenoids present in saffron, highly water-soluble crocin (mono and diglycosyl esters of a polyene dicarboxylic acid, named crocetin) is responsible for the majority of its color, and appears to possess various health-promoting properties, as an antioxidant, antitumor, memory enhancer, antidepressant, anxiolytic and aphrodisiac. It is also worth noting that the crocin principle of saffron exhibited high efficacy along with no major toxicity in experimental models. A proteomic study revealed that crocin physically binds to a wide range of cellular proteins such as structural proteins, membrane transporters, and enzymes involved in ATP and redox homeostasis and signal transduction. CROCIN RICH products provide highly purified natural crocin as dietary supplements, they are the purest and most effective formulation of crocin available.

Dihydrocapsaicin is a capsaicinoid and analog and congener of capsaicin in chili peppers. Like capsaicin, it contributes to the spicy taste of chili peppers, although it is less potent than capsacian. Dihydrocapsaicin has been shown to induce hypothermia in rats, a property which may help protect victims of stroke and cardiac arrest.

Matrine is an active alkaloid, extracted from a traditional Chinese herbs of the Sophora family. Matrine has been reported for its anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective effects. It was demonstrated that the antinociceptive effects of ( )-matrine was mediated by mu- and kappa-opioid receptors. It could dose-dependently restore the balance of Th17/Treg cytokines and attenuate the cognitive impairment in Alzheimer's disease rats. Sophora flavescens and its bioactive compound, matrine alleviated caffeine-induced hyperactivity and promoted non-rapid eye movement sleep by activating ventrolateral preoptic nucleus neurons and modulating serotonergic transmission. Clinical trial results indicate, that intramuscular matrine may be an economical, efficacious, safe drug for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B. Matrine injection may be used to protect the liver function for patients with primary hepatic carcinoma after trans-artery chemo-embolization (TAE), to relieve the liver cells damage, and to improve the tolerance of TAE, so as to perform the next TAE in time.

Riboflavin butyrate (a vitamin B2 derivative used widely in Japan) is often an ingredient of multivitamin complexes, used for relief of following symptoms: stomatitis, glossitis, perleche, cheilitis, rough skin, acne, dermatitis, eczema, rash, sores. It is a supply of Vitamins B2 and B6 in the following situations: physical fatigue, pregnancy/lactation, decline of physical strength during or after illness.

Cytisine ( aka baptitoxine and sophorine) is a naturally occurring alkaloid that can be found in several plant genera, such as Laburnum and Cytisus of the family Fabaceae. It has been found to be clinically superior to nicotine replacement therapy for the cessation of smoking. It is available in Eastern Europe under the brand names Tabex and Desmoxan and in Canada under the brand name Cravv. However certain undesirable side effects exist, Cytisine can interfere with breathing and cause death (LD50 i.v., in mice, is about 2 mg/kg) and Cytisine is also teratogenic. Cytosine is an α4β2 nicotinic Acetylcholine receptor agonist. In addition to clinical use as a smoking cessation aid, It has demonstrated anti-depressant effects in mice.

Caffeic acid is an organic compound that is classified as a hydroxycinnamic acid. Caffeic acid is naturally found in many agricultural products, such as fruit, vegetables, wine, olive oil, and coffee, and therefore, significantly present in human diet. Caffeic acid has been reported to have a wide variety of biological activities, including antioxidants, antithrombosis, antihypertensive, antifibrosis, antiviral and anti-tumor properties. Caffeic acid can be effectively employed as a natural antioxidant in various food products such as oils. Caffeic acid exhibits potent anticancer effect in HT-1080 cell line and that it may be used as an anticancer agent. Caffeic acid showed neuroprotective action against oxidative and DNA damage produced in the kindling epilepsy model, although they did not produce antiepileptogenic effect in vivo. Caffeic acid was effective in patients with primary immune thrombocytopenia. Detected in clinical trial caffeic acid-related adverse events were: mild nausea and elevation of liver enzymes.

Cadmium is a chemical element with symbol Cd and atomic number 48. Its most common oxidation state is +2. Cadmium has no known biological function in higher organisms, but a cadmium-dependent carbonic anhydrase has been found in marine diatoms. In humans, the highest concentration of cadmium is absorbed by the kidneys and up to 30 mg of cadmium is commonly inhaled during childhood and adolescence. Cadmium is under preliminary research for its toxicity in humans, potentially contributing to risks of cancer, cardiovascular disease, and osteoporosis. The most risk of cadmium toxicity is from industrial exposure to inhalation of dust and fumes, or ingestion of soluble cadmium compounds.

Palmidrol (palmitoylethanolamide, PEA) is a natural fatty acid amide found in a variety of foods, which was initially identified in egg yolk. It is an endogenous compound, locally synthesized in animal and human tissues and body fluids, to protect against perturbing inflammation. In addition to its anti-inflammatory activity, palmidrol (palmitoylethanolamide, PEA) also produces analgesia, neuroprotection, and possesses anti-epileptic properties. It also reduces gastrointestinal motility and cancer cell proliferation, as well as protecting the vascular endothelium in the ischemic heart. The physiological stimuli that regulate palmidrol (palmitoylethanolamide, PEA) levels in mammalian tissues are largely unknown, however, multiple studies indicate that this lipid accumulates during cellular stress, particularly following tissue injury. Palmidrol (palmitoylethanolamide, PEA) is a potent and selective agonist of orphan receptor GPR55.

Alfaxalone is a rapidly acting hydrophobic synthetic neurosteroid. It is indicated for the induction and maintenance of anesthesia and for induction of anesthesia followed by maintenance with an inhalant anesthetic, in cats and dogs. Alfaxalone induces anaesthesia through activity at the gamma amino butyric acid sub-type A receptor (GABAA) present on cells in the Central Nervous System (CNS). Alfaxalone enhances the effects of GABA at the GABAA receptors resulting in opening of channels into the cells and an influx of chloride ions. This causes hyperpolarisation of the cells and inhibition of neural impulse transmission. Alfaxalone can be safely combined with premedicants (xylazine, (dex)medetomidine, acepromazine, midazolam), opioids (morphine, methadone, hydromorphone, butorphanol, nalbuphine, buprenorphine, fentanyl), and NSAIDs. Alfaxalone’s adverse reactions are: hypotension, tachycardia, apnea, hypertension, bradypnea and others.

Dibutyltin dilaurate (DBTDL) is an organotin compound that is used as a catalyst for polyurethane production from isocyanates and diols. Dibutyltin dilaurate improves the drying of chemically curing systems favoring the isocyanate/polyol reaction over other side reactions such as isocyanate/water. DBTL can be used to aid the curing process of polyurethanes, silicone resins, RTV silicone resins and silane modified polymers. Dibutyltin dilaurate was used for the removal of large roundworms, cecal worms, and several species of tapeworms from chickens and turkeys. Based on animal studies, prolonged or repeated overexposure to Dibutyltin dilaurate may affect the developing fetus, blood, and thymus. Overexposure to Dibutyltin dilaurate may also cause central nervous system effects.
