What is it about?

Phenoic compound are common constituents many plant based foods and are partly responsible for decreasing the plant protein quality. Therefore the present work gives some in sight in the molecular interactions responsible for the poor bioavailability caused by the presence of phenolic compounds in plant foods.

Why is it important?

The study provides some considerations which should be important while assessing the bioavailability of plant proteins

Perspectives

The study provides the basic work to be considered for more complex protein characterization with regard to modifications occurring during post harvest processing
