Capsicum Oleoresin is extracted from fresh, properly ripened capsicum.
Capsicum species can contain up to 1.5% of a capsaicinoid oleoresin. The major components of the oleoresin responsible for the plant's pungent appeal are capsaicin, 6,7-dihydrocapsaicin, homocapsaicin, homodihydrocapsaicin, and nordihydrocapsaicin. Many volatile oils, carotenoids (capsanthin, capsorubin, carotene, lutein), proteins, fats, and high amounts of vitamins A and C are present. The amount of vitamin C present may be four to six times that found in an orange. Provitamins E, P, B1, B2 and B3 have also been identified as components.
Some defense spray manufacturers that use OC in their formula will tell you that the “active ingredient” in their pepper spray is Oleoresin Capsicum. In fact, some manufacturers even go as far to actually include that statement right on their label.
Capsaicin does not cause blistering or redness because it does not act on the capillaries or other blood vessels. An externally applied 0.1 % capsaicin solution inhibits flare formation after intradermal injection of histamine. Areas of skin (control) without pretreatment of capsaicin developed a wheal, flare, and itching. Flare response is believed to be substance P-mediated.
Traditional claims surrounding the use of capsicum include treatment of bowel disorders, chronic laryngitis, and peripheral vascular disease. Various preparations of capsicum have been applied topically as counterirritants and external analgesics. Topical capsaicin preparations are useful for treating pain associated with diabetic neuropathy, osteoarthritis, postherpetic neuralgia postsurgical pain (including postmastectomy and postamputation pain), rheumatoid arthritis, and other neuropathic pain and complex pain syndromes
