Grape pomace (GP) is a major byproduct of wine and juice industry, rich in polyphenolics with demonstrated health benefits. Extrusion processing for development of healthy and quality GP supplemented cornstarch snack foods was evaluated using response surface methodology. The retainability of polyphenolic content and antioxidant activity after extrusion processing were further assessed. The pro...

In the present study we report the isolation of a phenylpropanoid glucoside, plantamajoside, together with rosmarinic acid, chlorogenic acid and luteolin-7-O-monoglucoside. This is the first report of these compounds from Plantago lagopus.

We report the synthesis, electron paramagnetic resonance and electrochemical properties of a novel stable radical of the TTM series. Its strong electron acceptor ability has been tested with (-)-epicatechin, a natural polyphenolic antioxidant.

There is persuasive epidemiological evidence that regular intake of dietary bioactive polyphenolic compounds promotes human health. Because dietary polyphenolic compounds have a wide range of effects in vivo and vitro, including chelation of metals such as iron, it is prudent to test whether the regular consumption of bioactive polyphenolic components impair the utilization of dietary iron. We ...
