A mogroside is a chemical compound, and constitutes a glycoside of cucurbitane derivatives. They are found in certain plants, such as the fruit of the gourd vine ''luo han guo'' (''Siraitia grosvenorii'').〔Midori Takasaki, Takao Konoshima, Yuji Murata, Masaki Sugiura, Hoyoku Nishino, Harukuni Tokuda, Kazuhiro Matsumoto, Ryoji Kasai, and Kazuo Yamasaki (2003) "Anticarcinogenic activity of natural sweeteners, cucurbitane glycosides, from ''Momordica grosvenori''". ''Cancer Letters'', volume 198, pages 37–42|pmid=12893428〕〔Naoto Shimizu, Toshihiro Akihisa, Hiroki Kumagai, Christine Miller, Takashi Suzuki, Yumiko Kimura, Harukuni Tokuda (2007) ("Characterization of cucurbitane glycosides from the fruit of ''Momordica grosvenorii'' with LCMS and their inhibitory effect on Epstein-Barr virus activation".

The pure mogroside mix extracted from the ''S. grosvenorii'' fruit is 300 times sweeter than sugar. Pure mogroside-5 can be up to 400 times as sweet. Mogrosides have also been investigated as possible anticancer agents.〔 Mogrosides are used in various natural sweetener products such as Norbu sweetener, available in Australia since 2013. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mogroside」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
