Morin is a flavonoid with anti-oxidant properties.
It has been shown to protect cells against oxygen radical damage. Morin not only scavenges oxyradicals, but also moderately inhibits xanthine oxidase, a free-radical generating enzyme. At concentrations of 75-100 micromolar, morin inhibits oxidation of low density lipoprotein (LDL) by free radicals or Cu2+. Morin has been reported to inhibit rat brain phosphatidylinositolphosphate kinase activity in vitro and in vivo.
Soluble in ethanol, methanol (0,5% w/v- clear yellow to brown solution) It is also soluble in water (0,25 mg/ml, 20 °C; 0,94 mg/ml, 100 °C), freely soluble in alcohol, slightly soluble in ether and acetic acid, and soluble in aqueous alkaline solutions.
