With the significant increase in population cities, necessity of growing safe and functional food is great importance. Pomegranate fruit has many valuable antioxidant properties. The subject study was pomegranate from continental region (Sremski Karlovci, Serbia) Mediterranean (Bar, Montenegro). We compared biochemically active compounds genotypes both locations. analysis performed included tot...

Tannins are a group of polyphenolic compounds synthesized and accumulated by higher plants as secondary metabolites. They divided into hydrolysable tannins proanthocyanidins found in many plant tissues which they occur diverse structures amounts. This review provides brief background on tannin distribution plants, summarizes the current literature strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, current...

Chokeberry and elderberry fruits are rich sources of polyphenols, the compounds with significant antiradical and chelating properties. They are studied intensively because of beneficial effects on human health. In this study, three fractions enriched with different classes of polyphenols were isolated from chokeberry and elderberry to study their antiradical activity by DPPH test. The first fra...

Acetic acid-catalyxed cleavage of proanthocyanidins in the preaeace of phloroglucinol gives a series of 2R procyanidlnand prodelphfnidin-phIoroglucino~ adducta together with a novel 2s skis derivative implicating cleavage of the pyran ring and subsequent imersion of stereochemistry at C&. These Bavan4-phloroglucinoi adducta also suffer dehydration to producb with novel fused dihydro&ozopyrandih...

The currently changing climates and environments place plants under many types of stresses that affect both their survival levels chemical defenses. gradual induction defenses in stressed plant populations could be monitored on a yearly basis unless seasonal variation natural defense obscures such monitoring schemes. Here, we studied the stability species-specific polyphenol composition content...
