Structure, antioxidant and α-amylase inhibitory activities of longan pericarp proanthocyanidins

Longan pericarp proanthocyanidins (LPPs) were extracted and examined by structural and bioactive analyses. By 1H and 13C NMR spectra, LPPs were identified for the first time containing dominant catechin/epicatechin units with a mean degree of polymerisation of 3.3. Consistent with this result, elect...
