Journal ArticleDOI
Antimicrobial activity of flavonoids
T.P. Tim Cushnie,Andrew J. Lamb +1 more
TL;DR: Several high-quality investigations have examined the relationship between flavonoid structure and antibacterial activity and these are in close agreement, and future studies may allow the development of a pharmacologically acceptable antimicrobial agent or class of agents.
Journal ArticleDOI
Flavonoid antioxidants: chemistry, metabolism and structure-activity relationships.
TL;DR: The diversity and multiple mechanisms of flavonoid action, together with the numerous methods of initiation, detection and measurement of oxidative processes in vitro and in vivo offer plausible explanations for existing discrepancies in structure-activity relationships.
Journal ArticleDOI
