Preparation and Chromatographic Analysis of Phlorotannins [PDF]
Journal of Chromatographic Science, 2013 In the 70s, reports began to appear of phenolic metabolites of brown algae with the characteristics of tannins; these compounds, initially termed phaeophyte tannins, marine algal polyphenols or polyphloroglucinols, are known as phlorotannins, the youngest group of plant polyphenolics.

Microwave-Assisted Extraction of Phlorotannins from Fucus vesiculosus [PDF]
Marine Drugs, 2020 Microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) was carried out to maximize the extraction of phlorotannins from Fucus vesiculosus using a hydroethanolic mixture as a solvent, as an alternative to the conventional method with a hydroacetonic mixture. Optimal MAE conditions were set as ethanol concentration of 57% (v/v), temperature of 75 °C, and time of 5 min ...
