Used as a natural yellow pigment in food and cosmetic industries due to its vibrant color and stability. Exhibits antioxidant properties, making it valuable in skincare formulations for protecting against oxidative stress and UV-induced damage. Currently studied for potential anti-inflammatory and anticancer activities, particularly in herbal medicine development. Its glycosylated structure enhances water solubility, improving bioavailability in pharmaceutical applications. Additionally, research suggests it inhibits tyrosinase activity, reducing melanin production, which offers potential for skin lightening products to address hyperpigmentation, freckles, and skin dullness. Also investigated for use in natural dye-sensitized solar cells because of its light-absorbing characteristics.
