New research shows that polyphenolic compounds, which are commonly found in fruits and vegetables, can be combined with sugar molecules to create potential life-saving drugs.

Polyphenolic Ripeness Also known as physiological ripeness, is the concentration of polyphenols in grape skins, seeds and stems, in contrast to the traditional form of measuring ripeness based on ...

THE chemical composition of a homogenized compound eye was reported by Langer 1, but until now nothing was known about the components of rhabdomeres alone, although the presence of photosensitive ...

IT is well established that phlorrhizin and its aglycone phloretin affect hexose transfer in a number of tissues. Recently Forsling and Widdas 1 showed that phenolphthalein caused competitive ...

A compound found in pomegranates that is available in pill form could help improve memory and alleviate Alzheimer’s symptoms, new research in mice indicates.

A new paper in the journal Polymers provides guidelines for designing and synthesizing functional materials for 3D bio-fabrications using polyphenolic materials. Polyphenolic materials are functional ...

Flavonoids are polyphenolic molecules containing 15 carbon atoms and are soluble in water. They consist of two benzene rings connected by a short three carbon chain.

These polyphenolic proteins serve as structural and adhesive components of the byssal threads which form the extraorganismic holdfast. One family of byssal precursors, previously characterized in a ...
