SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING OF POLYPHENOLS
A groundbreaking synthesis of rich and varied polyphenol research
Polyphenols are a class of compounds, found naturally in fruits and vegetables, whose flexibility and ubiquity give them a vast range of applications in pharmaceutical, environmental, and biological research and development. They play a role in diagnosing and preventing diseases from diabetes to Parkinson’s to Alzheimer’s and have been integral in food preservation. The field of polyphenols research has the potential to touch virtually every area of organic production.
Science and Engineering of Polyphenols provides a current and comprehensive overview of this field of research and its latest developments. Long overdue as a ‘state of the field’ synthesis for an area of study that has seen rapid development in recent years, this book promises to be a milestone.
Science and Engineering of Polyphenols readers will also find:
* Treatment of both natural and synthetic polyphenols
* Detailed discussion of topics including synthesis and characterization of polyphenols, electronic and molecular structure of polyphenols, and many more
* Supplementary material including websites of interest and updates on the latest research and development
Science and Engineering of Polyphenols is ideal for scholars, industrialists, and policymakers in any of the myriad areas of academia and industry touched by polyphenol research.
