Capsaicinoides

Structura capsaicini, capsaicinoidum celeberrimi.

Capsaicinoides (neut.; nom. pl. capsaicinoidea) est unum e classe compositorum organicorum, in fructibus generis Capsici provenientium. Capsaicinum est compositum notabilissimum huius classis. Saporem pungentem in gula mammalium producunt; aves frugivoras ad comedendum incitare videntur; varia beneficia tamquam condimentum et medicamentum in hominibus, mammalibus, avibus efficiunt.

Pungentia fructuum speciei Capsici pubescentis ope trium capsaicinoideum efficitur, videlicet capsaicini, dihydrocapsaicini, nordihydrocapsaicini.
