TLDR
In this article, a standard method of analysis of proanthocyanidins based on use of an n-BuOH-HCl-FeIII mixture is given, and the ratio of absorbance maxima of the cyanidin (550 nm) produced to that near 280 nm for the original procyanidin polymer solution was ∼ 3.5.

Plant phenolics: extraction, analysis and their antioxidant and anticancer properties.

Jin Dai, +1 more
- 21 Oct 2010 - 
TL;DR: The anticancer effects of phenolics in-vitro and in- vivo animal models are viewed, including recent human intervention studies, and possible mechanisms of action involving antioxidant and pro-oxidant activity as well as interference with cellular functions are discussed.

Proanthocyanidins and tannin-like compounds – nature, occurrence, dietary intake and effects on nutrition and health

TL;DR: Proanthocyanidins (syn condensed tannins) are complex flavonoid polymers naturally present in cereals, legume seeds and particularly abundant in some fruits and fruit juices as mentioned in this paper.

Changes in tannins in ripening fruits

Judith L. Goldstein, +1 more
- 01 Oct 1963 - 
TL;DR: It is concluded that loss of astringency, which occurs on ripening, is most probably connected with increased polymerization of tannins.

Occurrence of an unusual leucoanthocyanidin and absence of proanthocyanidins in sorghum leaves

TL;DR: Leaf tissue analysis of 47 sorghum lines after washing out interfering pigments did not show the presence of tannins, and polyvinylpyrrolidone-binding material with properties corresponding to monomeric flavan-4-ol was identified as apiforol.
