Crocin III（Cat No.:I044923）is a water-soluble carotenoid glycoside primarily found in the stigmas of Crocus sativus (saffron) and Gardenia jasminoides. It is one of several crocin isomers responsible for saffron’s vibrant color and therapeutic properties. Structurally, Crocin III consists of a crocetin backbone esterified with sugar moieties, enhancing its solubility and bioavailability. It exhibits antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective, and potential anticancer activities. Crocin III is under investigation for its ability to combat oxidative stress, improve cognitive function, and support eye and cardiovascular health, making it valuable in nutraceutical and biomedical research.
