Capsaicin

Build a 3D chemical structure model of the spice Capsaicin (Zostrix) utilizing Authentic Molymod Components by Indigo

What is Capsaicin?

Capsaicin, the active ingredient of chili peppers, is found in plants from the genus Capsicum. It produces the burning sensation when it comes in contact with tissue. It's even nastier if you prepare them for a spicy dish, forget to wash your hands and then rub your eyes...an experience you won't forget!

 

A molecular model of Capsaicin in the Molymod Hybrid Dome style uses the atoms & bonds in the parts list below. Our free 3D Molecular Model Builder shows other styles & allows for image rotation as an assembly guide.
