Capsaicinoids & Capsaicin
Capsaicinoids are substances extracted from pepper that produce the unique, spicy taste. Capsaicinoids are composed of 14 compounds, mainly capsaicin (8-Methyl-N-vanillyl-6-nonenamide, C18H27NO3, MW 305.4) and Dihydrocapsaicin（8-Methyl-N-vanillyl-6-nonanamide, C18H29NO3，MW 307.4).
