I'm doing a great project with these flavonoids and I'm looking for cheaper sources. They can be commercials anyway. Can someone help me?
Dear Quintans-Júnior,
These are two of the most important flavanones showing bioactive properties, and they are widely distributed in plant kingdom. In particular, these phytochemicals are the predominant flavanones in citrus fruits such as grapefruits and oranges.
The most important sources of naringin are (I will report the mean content): Grapefruit/Pummelo hybrid, pure juice (45 mg/100ml), Grapefruit, juice from concentrate (38 mg/100ml), rosemary, fresh (55 mg/100g FW).
The most important sources of naringenin are: Mexican oregano, dried (370 mg/100g FW), grapefruit, pure juice (1.56 mg/100 ml), fresh red tomato (from 0.8 to 4.2 mg/100g FW).
I suggest you to conduct a market analysis starting from these sources.
Best regards.
Thank you DrGabriele Rocchetti for valuable information. I appreciated that.
Best

Hello sir, 500mg of Naringin (purely isolated from citrus fruits) is cost around 312.04 Brazilian Real (converted from Indian rupee) at you place and it may satisfy your experimental requirement, I think so. But if you are looking for more cheap source, you can easily isolate it from citrus peel of citrus reticulate through crystallization technique mention below.

Hope so it will help
Hello Sir, Naringin and Naringenin are mainly found in grapefruits, citrus fruits bergamot, sour orange, tart cherries, tomatoes, cocoa,Greek oregano,water mint, drynaria and beans.
Dear,
Naringin is the major flavonoid glycoside in grapefruit and gives grapefruit juice its bitter taste. It is metabolized to the flavonone naringenin in humans. naringin, which is the aglycones of naringin, occur naturally in citrus fruits. Narinigin exerts a variety of pharmacological effects
Citrus fruits are a rich source of flavonoids, of which Naringin is one. Naringin is found predominately in Grapefruit, but also occurs in
Pummelo or Shaddock (Citrus grandis [Linn] Osbeck)
Sour orange (Citrus aurantium)
Hassaku orange (Citrus hassaku)
Natsudaidai Orange (Citrus natsudaidai)
Trifoliate orange (Poncirus trifoliata)
Bergamot (Citrus bergamia)
In grapefruit, naringin occurs mainly in the flavedo, albedo and segment membranes, with far less in the juice vesicles.
Sorry, can't tell you what's cheapest source. But here's a useful source of information:
