Kinetic investigations of sulfite addition to flavanols [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2020 AbstractFlavanols are an important class of natural products occurring in almost all plants, fruits and vegetables; they have a great influence on wine ageing potential, astringency, colour stability and biological activities. In wine, flavanols react with sulfur dioxide ($$\hbox {SO}_2$$SO2), the most widely used preservative in oenology, leading to ...

Effects of Flavanols on Enteroendocrine Secretion
Biomolecules, 2020 Some beneficial effects of grape seed proanthocyanidin extract (GSPE) can be explained by the modulation of enterohormone secretion. As GSPE comprises a combination of different molecules, the pure compounds that cause these effects need to be elucidated. The enterohormones and chemoreceptors present in the gastrointestinal tract differ between species,

Impact of cocoa flavanols on human health
Food and Chemical Toxicology, 2021 Cocoa is a source of flavanols, and these phenolic compounds exert beneficial effects on health and aging, and reduce the risk of suffering chronic diseases (cardiovascular diseases, metabolic disorders, cancer). An increasing body of evidence has emerged to suggest that cocoa flavanols potentially are important chemopreventive natural agents.

Nuclei of Plants as a Sink for Flavanols
Zeitschrift für Naturforschung C, 2001 Onion cepa (L.) and Tsuga canadensis (L.) Carr, were investigated histochemically on the association of flavanols to nuclei. The young roots of Onion cepa are totally devoid of flavanol structures. Therefore, the excised roots tips were directly incubated into different solutions of flavanols.
