Activation of proestrogens from hops (Humulus lupulus L.) by intestinal microbiota; Conversion of isoxanthohumol into 8-prenylnaringenin [PDF]

, 2005
Hop, an essential ingredient in most beers, contains a number of prenylflavonoids, among which 8-prenylnaringenin (8-PN) would be the most potent phytoestrogen currently known. Although a number of health effects are attributed to these compounds, only a

Microbial Transformation of Flavonoids [PDF]

Applied Microbiology, 1971
The ability of a number of fungal spores, and in particular of resting vegetative mycelia, to transform naringin and naringenin was studied. In general, only hydrolytic cleavage of the sugar moieties of naringin to produce prunin and naringenin was observed.
