Limonoids are tetracyclic triterpenoids isolated primarily from citrus peels via solvent extraction. The core structure features a furan ring, with Affinin (CAS 519-40-8) and Naringin (CAS 10236-47-2) being prominent examples. These compounds exhibit distinct bitterness profiles.
Storage requires desiccated environments below 25°C to prevent degradation. Human consumption is restricted to regulated dosages due to potential hepatotoxicity at high concentrations.
