v-innovate Technologies provides one-stop high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) services covering a wide variety of plant targeted metabolomics. Our dihydroflavanones analysis services use HPLC technologies to deliver high resolution and reliable identification and quantification of dihydroflavanones.
Dihydroflavanones are the hydrogenated derivatives of the double bond at the C2-3 position of flavanones. Most of these plant ingredients have hydroxyl or methoxy group, and those with hydroxyl group at the C3 position are commonly called dihydroflavonols. Dihydroflavanones exist in free form or combined form in the plant kingdom. For example, hesperetin and liquiritin belong to dihydroflavones. The reduction reaction of dihydroflavanones with sodium borohydride can produce purple or blue-red phenomenon, which can be used to distinguish dihydroflavanones from other flavanones. The biological activity of dihydroflavanones has been widely concerned. High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is a sensitive analytical technique that enables detection, identification and quantification of a variety of dihydroflavanones by characterizing their chemical structure, even at low abundance. Comprehensive phytohormone profiling helps elucidate a plant’s responses to different conditions such as mutations, stress, and hormone treatments.
Since different tissues have different matrix properties, v-innovate Technologies has developed multiple novel sample preparation techniques. Our services allow the profiling of multiple dihydroflavanones, including hesperetin, liquiritin, etc.

1. Fresh plant tissues from leaf, flower, stem, root, seed, or fruit: >1 g. Provide young plant tissues for the best results. Samples should be frozen in liquid nitrogen immediately after collection, and then transferred to -80°C for storage.
2. Cells stored in -80°C.
At least 3 biological replicates.
HPLC-based profiling of dihydroflavanones enables quantitative analyses of dihydroflavanones in a faster, convenient, and sensitive manner. With decades of experience in HPLC services, v-innovate Technologies has a proven track record supporting diverse dihydroflavanones detection and quantification. We can meet your specific project requirements, from sampling to bioinformatics.
