SOLUBILIZATION METHOD OF WATER-INSOLUBLE CURCUMIN WITHOUT LOSS OF OR DAMAGE TO ITS PHARMACEUTICAL EFFICACY WITHIN CELL

摘要

A method for solubilization of curcumin and a water-soluble curcumin prepared by this method are disclosed. The method prepares a water-soluble curcumin by covalent-bonding sugar to the curcumin, thereby making the curcumin, which was insoluble to water, into a water-soluble curcumin. This water-soluble curcumin may be applied to more fields such as food, soluble drugs and dyes.
