Hops are the flowers (also called seed cones or strobiles) of the hop plant, Humulus lupulus, a member of the Cannabaceae family of flowering plants. Hops consist mainly of prenylated phloroglucinol derivatives known as alfa-acids or humulones (2 - 12% of dried strobile), principally humulone (35 - 70%), and beta-acids or lupulones (1 - 10% of dried strobile), principally lupulone (30 - 55%). They also contain flavonoids (0.5 - 1.5%) including quercetin and kaempferol glycosides and at least 22 prenylated or geranylated flavonoids, notably the chalcones xanthohumol (up to 1% of the dried strobile and 80 - 90% of total flavonoids), desmethylxanthohumol and dehydrocycloxanthohumol and the flavanones isoxanthohumol, 8-prenylnaringenin (25 - 60 mg/kg) and 6-prenylnaringenin. Other constituents include proanthocyanidins (2 - 4%), phenolic acids, proteins (15%), polysaccharides (40 - 50%) and minerals.
