Capsaicin, with the chemical name trans-8-methyl-N-vanillyl-6-nonenamide and the chemical formula C18H27NO3, is the active ingredient of peppers. It is irritating to mammals, including humans, and can produce a burning sensation in the mouth.
1. As a food additive. As a food seasoning, peppers need to be processed slightly to make pepper sauce, etc. However, when these products are consumed, the capsaicin must go through a leaching process, and the bioavailability of capsaicin is not high. At the same time, the alkali continues to be released in the intestines, stimulating the intestinal wall, causing abdominal discomfort, and even causing anal burning pain, inducing hemorrhoids. Therefore, extracting and separating capsaicin from peppers as an additive in the food processing process is conducive to controlling the spiciness and fully absorbing and utilizing capsaicin.
2. In terms of medicine and health care: my country is one of the first countries to use peppers as medicine. Chinese medicine uses peppers to treat stomach cold, rheumatism and other diseases. Modern research shows that capsaicin has anti-inflammatory, analgesic, anesthetic and drug-detoxification effects. Its analgesic effect is equivalent to morphine, but it lasts longer than morphine. It has significant therapeutic effects on postherpetic neuralgia, trigeminal neuralgia, diabetic neuralgia, rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, psoriasis, alopecia, etc. In addition, capsaicin can also inhibit the occurrence of malignant tumors and has special effects on the treatment of skin diseases and weight loss.
3. Application in marine antifouling coatings: Some attached organisms in the ocean, such as barnacles, seaweed, shellfish, etc., are attached to the bottom of ships, buoys, docks, piers, seawater pipelines and aquaculture cages in large quantities. Due to their large number and extremely fast growth rate, they can slow down the speed of ships, increase fuel, accelerate metal corrosion, block pipelines and cage meshes, and cause imbalance of underwater facilities, etc., causing great harm to human development of the ocean. As a repellent, capsaicin has a strong repelling effect and does not kill marine life, which has obvious ecological benefits.
4. As an anti-ant and anti-rat repellent in wires and cables: Polyvinyl chloride and polyethylene are increasingly used as insulation and sheath materials in the wire and cable industry. In addition to being damaged by oxygen, heat, light, force, and chemical erosion, they are also damaged by termites, mice, or rabbits, causing power outages, communication interruptions, and even short circuits that cause fires. The strong spicy taste of capsaicin can strongly stimulate the oral mucosa and taste nerves of rodents, making them disgusted with chewing, while also killing termites. It has broad application prospects in wires and cables.
