Abstract
Plant polyphenols are widely distributed in most higher plants, garnering significant attention from researchers due to their remarkable antioxidative, antibacterial, anticancer, and anti-radiation properties. They also offer multiple health benefits for various lifestyle-related diseases and oxidative stress. While there has been considerable research on the extraction and antibacterial application of plant polyphenols, developing a rapid and efficient extraction method remains a persistent challenge. Furthermore, the introduction of novel technologies is imperative to enhance the bioavailability of polyphenolic compounds. This comprehensive review synthesizes recent research findings pertaining to the extraction, antibacterial mechanisms, and applications of plant polyphenols. This research highlights the prevalent issues of low extraction rates of plant polyphenols and the ambiguous antibacterial mechanisms in current research. To address these challenges, this research proposes innovative directions for improving extraction technology and expanding antibacterial applications. Additionally, this review outlines promising future research avenues within the realm of plant polyphenols.
期刊介绍:
The FSB journal covers food chemistry and analysis for compositional and physiological activity changes, food hygiene and toxicology, food microbiology and biotechnology, and food engineering involved in during and after food processing through physical, chemical, and biological ways. Consumer perception and sensory evaluation on processed foods are accepted only when they are relevant to the laboratory research work. As a general rule, manuscripts dealing with analysis and efficacy of extracts from natural resources prior to the processing or without any related food processing may not be considered within the scope of the journal. The FSB journal does not deal with only local interest and a lack of significant scientific merit. The main scope of our journal is seeking for human health and wellness through constructive works and new findings in food science and biotechnology field.
