A large number of phytochemicals have been derived from the natural sources in the form of oils, food supplement, neutraceuticals, and colour pigments.•Flavonoids are a widely distributed group of phytochemicals having benzo-pyrone nucleus and so far more then 4000 different flavonoids have been described and categorized.•Hyperin, a flavonoid mainly found in plants such asHypericum perforatum, Drosera rotundifolia, Stachys byzantina, Prunella vulgaris, Rumex acetosella, Abelmoschus manihotandRhododendron arboreum.•Hyperin have various pharmacological activities such as antioxidant, antiinflamatory, anticancer, antiviral, antibacterial, antiparasitic, cardioprotective and hepatoprotective activities.•This review contains an overview of pharmacological activities, isolation and analytical techniques of hyperin, which will be benificial to the scientist, manufacturer and consumers in order to explore the potential health benefits of hyperin.AbstractHerbal medicines have been used for the treatment of various disorders in the world since very early age. A large number of phytochemicals have been derived from the natural sources in the form of food supplement, neutraceuticals, oils and colour pigments. Flavonoids are a widely distributed group of phytochemicals having benzo-pyrone nucleus. Till so far more than 4000 different types of flavonoids have been described and categorized into different groups like flavonols, flavones, flavanones, isoflavones, catechins and anthocyanidins. Flavonoids have an attractive candidate in the food industry as natural colorants due to its health beneficial effect and safety issue. Hyperin, an important flvonoid were found in the different plants have various pharmacological activities like antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, antiviral, antibacterial, antiparasitic, cardioprotective, hepatoprotective and antispasmodic. The aim of this review is to collect all the valuable scientific information of hyperin regarding its medicinal importance, pharmacological activities, isolation and analytical techniques. From the presented data’s in this review it will be beneficial to the scientific person, pharmaceutical manufacturer and consumers in order to it health beneficial effect of hyperin. Thus this valuable information will be helpful to the researchers for developing alternative methods of treatment for different diseases.
