Phloretin

Synonimy: Phloretin, 3-(4-Hydroxyphenyl)-1-(2,4,6-trihydroxyphenyl)propan-1-one, Dihydronaringenin, Phloretol, Ren (not to be confused with the anthraquinone), 2′,4,4′,6′-Tetrahydroxydihydrochalcone

Phloretin is a dihydrochalcone flavonoid found in apple leaves, roots, and especially in the peel of apples, pears, and other Rosaceae fruits. It is the aglycone of phlorizin, a glucoside that has been studied for decades in renal physiology. As a commercial ingredient, phloretin is produced via enzymatic hydrolysis of phlorizin or through synthetic routes, yielding a high-purity crystalline powder with a molecular weight of 274.27 g/mol (C15H14O5).

In the B2B space, phloretin is valued for its ability to inhibit glucose transporters (GLUT1, GLUT2, SGLT1/2) and for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Formulators in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries use it as an active in skin-brightening, anti-aging, and barrier-repair products, while researchers employ it as a tool compound to study cellular glucose uptake and metabolic pathways. It is also explored as a natural preservative booster and stabilizer in certain food and beverage applications.
