Condensed tannins are high molecular weight polymers, comprised of flavan-3-ol monomers stabilized by C-C interflavan bonds. Condensed tannins are found in most higher plants, and affect food properties such as astringency and protein availability, N- and C-cycles in soil systems, and agronomic properties such as insect and pathogen resistance. Tannins are highly sorptive molecules, making […]
