Description

Enoxolone, also known as glycyrrhetinic acid, is a triterpene extracted from licorice (Glycyrrhiza glabra). This bioactive compound is recognized for its anti-inflammatory, antiviral, and wound-healing properties. It is widely used in the nutraceutical and cosmetic industries, particularly in formulations designed to soothe mucous membranes, improve digestive health, or calm skin irritations. Therefore, accurate enoxolone dosage is essential to ensure the quality, standardization, and regulatory compliance of finished products.

Analytical methods

Enoxolone analysis is performed by high-performance liquid chromatography-DAD (HPLC-DAD) or by LC-MS. These methods allow for precise, sensitive, and selective quantification, suitable for both crude extracts and complex formulations. The use of validated techniques ensures optimal reliability of the results, essential for meeting regulatory and industrial requirements.

Affected matrices

Enoxolone assay is performed on a wide range of matrices:

  • plant extracts of licorice
  • plant powders
  • dietary supplements in the form of capsules or tablets
  • liquid oral preparations
  • Topical formulations in cosmetics (creams, gels, lotions)

Industrial applications

Enoxolone is particularly sought after in:

  • the nutraceutical industry, for the formulation of food supplements with digestive or anti-inflammatory properties
  • cosmetics, for its soothing and protective effects on the skin
  • traditional and modern pharmacopoeia, where its dosage allows control of the active ingredient content and avoids excessive variability between batches

Compliance and regulations

The measurement of enoxolone levels meets traceability and compliance requirements, particularly in the context of marketing food supplements and cosmetic products. Reliable analytical testing ensures consumer safety and prevents any discrepancies with labeling declarations.
