The production of Nootkatone is usually achieved by distilling the essential oil of cypress or extracting compounds from citrus fruit peels. For the essential oil of Shibai, steam distillation is usually used to heat the bark and wood of Shibai to high temperature, volatilizing Nootkatone, and collecting it through condensation to obtain a pure product. For citrus fruits, solvent extraction or cold pressing can be used to separate the compounds in the fruit peel.

Glycyrrhizic Acid, is a triterpenoid saponin glycoside being either the Ca2+ or K+ salt of glycyrrhizic (or glycyrrhizinic) acid. Upon hydrolysis, the glycoside loses its sweet taste and is converted to the aglycone glycyrrhetinic acid plus two molecules of glucuronic acid. The glycyrrhizic acid form is not particularly water soluble, but its ammonium salt is soluble in water at pH greater than 4.5. Glycyrrhizic acid could help enhance the transformation and transportation functions of the spleen and stomach.
