Technological Process
Application
Food Additive
Uses: Added to functional beverages, teas, fruit juices, health snacks, and seasonings.
Mechanism: Contains momordicosides (bitter melon glycosides), amino acids, and soluble polysaccharides, which dissolve or disperse in liquids or food matrices, providing natural bitterness and influencing flavor profile.
Nutritional Supplements
Uses: Capsules, tablets, powdered drinks, plant-based functional beverages.
Mechanism: Water-soluble components (momordicosides, polysaccharides, minerals) are released in digestive fluids, providing material basis for dietary supplementation.
Plant-Based Formulations and Functional Beverages
Uses: Meal replacement powders, energy drinks, plant extract beverages.
Mechanism: Momordicosides and soluble polysaccharides disperse in liquids, contributing to formulation structure while imparting natural bitterness and flavor tone.
Cosmetic Ingredient
Uses: Skincare masks, lotions, serums.
Mechanism: Soluble components disperse in formulations, improving uniformity and stability, and can serve as plant-based active ingredients.
Scientific Research
Uses: Functional food development, momordicosides and polysaccharide extraction, component analysis.
Mechanism: Momordicosides, polysaccharides, and water-soluble components can be isolated or analyzed from the powder for experimental sample preparation and scientific research.
