Plant polyphenolics are receiving increased attention for their influences on belowground processes. Tannins are of particular interest because of their predominance in natural systems, their wide variation in both quality and quantity, and their protein-binding abilities. Current theory holds that simple phenolics increase microbial activity by acting as carbon substrates, while larger tannins...

five common tetracycline resistance genes tet(a), tet(b), tet(m), tet(o) and tet(s) were studied by polymerase chain reaction in 100 bacteria isolated from iranian fish farms. in the antibiogram test most of the bacteria were either intermediately or completely resistant to tetracycline. nine isolates out of 46 aeromonas spp. contained either tet(a/m/s) resistant genes as follows: tet(a) in a. ...

Tannins are astringent, bitter plant polyphenols that either bind and precipitate or shrink proteins. The astringency from the tannins is that which causes the dry and puckery feeling in the mouth following the consumption of red wine, strong tea, or an unripened fruit[1].
