چکیده

The strong interfacial properties of selected plant polyphenols were recently exploited in forming functionally versatile nanocoatings via dip-coating. Here, we screened a library of ~20 natural and synthetic phenols and polyphenols, identifying eight catechol-, gallol- and resorcinol-rich precursors capable of forming coatings. Several newly identified compounds expand the molecular diversity of tannin-inspired coatings.

Chemical and sensory evaluation of astringency in Washington state red wines

• Tannins are the main class of polyphenolic compounds thought to contribute to astringency. The Harbertson/Adams assay allows for the measurement of the various phenolic fractions in a wine: tannin, large polymeric pigment (LPP), small polymeric pigment (SPP), and anthocyanin (see Summaries #4 and #28). The goal of these authors was to explore the relationship between perceived astringency and...

The effects of tannin-rich diet on protein composition of parotid and submandibular glands of Guinea Pig

  Tannins are plant-derived polyphenolic compounds that are widely found in foods, particularly in fruits and beverages. These materials are water-soluble and able to precipitate proteins from aqueous solutions. It had been shown that feeding some animals such as rat and mouse with tannins mimicks the effects of isoproterenol on salivary glands. Tannins stimulate β-receptors by some indirect me...

Berry Phenolics of Grapevine under Challenging Environments

Plant phenolics have been for many years a theme of major scientific and applied interest. Grape berry phenolics contribute to organoleptic properties, color and protection against environmental challenges. Climate change has already caused significant warming in most grape-growing areas of the world, and the climatic conditions determine, to a large degree, the grape varieties that can be cult...
