Formation of 2,6-DMBQ in anthocyanin-rich foods
LWT - Food Science and Technology, 2020 Abstract The naturally occurring 2,6-dimethoxybenzoquinone (DMBQ) has anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and anti-cancer activities. As it is probably formed in plants via oxidative degradation of the anthocyanin malvidin and its glycosides, a targeted analysis of the DMBQ concentration of different wines and grape juices was performed.

Food Engineering Progress, 2010 Wheat germ contains the glycosylated forms of 2-methoxy-p-benzoquinone (2-MBQ) and 2,6-dimethoxy-p-benzoquinone (2,6-DMBQ), both of which have antimicrobial and immunostimulatory effects. Conversion of glycosylated 2-MBQ and 2,6-DMBQ to their more functional unglycosylated forms requires enzymatic action of β-glucosidase.
