Synthetic Capsaicin Introduction
Synthetic Capsaicin also named Nonivamide is also called pelargonic acid vanillylamide or PAVA. It is a capsaicinoid. Nonivamide, isolated from peppers, is a naturally occurring analog of capsaicin (sc-3577). Similar to capsaicin, nonivamide can activate the TRPV1 receptor, thus, stimulate the firing rate of dopaminergic neurons in the ventral tegmental area of the brain and to increase the expression of the serotonin receptor gene HTR2A. Nonivamide is with lower TRPV1 binding affinity, thus, a reduced pungency (9 200 000 scoville heat units) compared to capsaicin (16 000 000 scoville heat units).
Nonivamide is used in the food production to add a hot sensation to flavoring agents and spice mixtures. It is also used in the sweets and confectionary industries to add hot sensation into products. In pharmaceutical industries, nonivamide is used as a cheaper alternative for capsaicin. Warming or heating ointment of nonivamide is used for temporary relief of pain from conditions such as rheumatism, arthritis, lumbao, muscular aches, sprains and strains, sporting injuries and other conditions where local warmth is beneficial. Finalgon is one of the common product utilizing nonivamide for this purpose. Nonivamide is also used as an incapacitant spray, affecting the assailed person’s eyes, causing intense pain and swelling.
Shaanxi Rebecca Bio-Tech Co.,LTD, is the main Manufacturer of this synthetic capsaicin powder, Yearly production Quantity: 80 Tons,40% of our Production Quantity, are exported to Oversea Markets.Till Year 2023, we have been exporting it to over 18 countries in the world.Our Synthetic capsaicin has a chemical structure which is similar to natural capsaicin compounds and has similar biological activities as natural Capsaicin. But it has absolute advantages over natural capsaicin in terms of price and spiciness, so it has a much broader application fields.And we also provide free sample for you .Besides, our Synthetic Capsaicin is having the same function with Natural Capsaicin and higher Scoville Heat Units(SHU), because of its much lower price, It is supposed to replace natural Capsaicin in many industries, like food industry, medicine industry and other Industrial fields.
We look forward to hearing from you and establishing cooperation with you. If you have any questions about our products, you can contact us by information@sxrebecca.com at any time. We are happy to answer all your questions.

HPLC Chromatogram
Scoville Heat Unit or Scoville Hotness Units
Scoville designed a set of experimental methods called "Scoville Organoleptic test" to measure capsaicin content. This method is to dissolve one unit of capsaicin in the sugar water, and then give it to several people to taste, and then gradually increase the amount of sugar water until the spicy taste cannot be tasted. Scoville Hotness Units (SHU). For example, bell peppers have no spicy taste when eaten raw, so the SHU is 0~5; the SHU of allspice is between 100 and 500, which means that one unit of allspice requires 100~500 times of sugar water to neutralize. The substance with the highest SHU value is capsaicin, which
is around 15,000,000~16,000,000. Because this experimental method is greatly influenced by human subjectivity, later generations developed a method called "high performance liquid chromatography" (HPLC) to measure. However, because the Scoville indicator has been in use for a long time, the measurement value of high performance liquid chromatography is still often converted into SHU to represent the capsaicin content.

Differences in the effects of synthetic capsaicin and natural capsaicin
Synthetic capsaicin Powder is a higher purity capsaicin with a stronger spicy taste and a longer-lasting anti-inflammatory and analgesic effect. At the same time, synthetic capsaicin has also been proven to have multiple functions such as anti-cancer and weight loss. Synthetic capsaicin is also widely used in the fields of capsaicin paint, rodent and insect repellent additives, etc.
Natural capsaicin is mainly made of peppers and is obtained through extraction, purification and other processes. In addition to its anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects, it can also promote gastric juice secretion, increase appetite, improve digestive function, promote blood circulation, lower cholesterol, control blood pressure, and prevent thrombosis. In addition, natural capsaicin is widely used in the fields of food and medicine, and its product added value is high.
In general, although both synthetic capsaicin and natural capsaicin have anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects, there are differences in their efficacy and uses in specific applications.
