Research Project:
INVESTIGATION OF GRAIN SORGHUM ANTHYOCYANINS, PROANTHOCYANIDINS, AND OTHER PHENOLIC COMPOUNDS AND THEIR ANTI-OXIDANT PROPERTIES
Location: Grain Quality and Structure Research
Project Number: 5430-44000-017-04
Project Type:
Specific Cooperative Agreement
Start Date: Jul 12, 2004
End Date: Jun 30, 2009
Objective:
Investigate the phenolic content and composition of grain sorghum. Elucidate the structural composition of polyphenols. Investigate the use of the sorghum phenols and polyphenols as antioxidants for improving human health and as food additives to improve food quality.
Approach:
Investigate methods for isolating sorghum polyphenols. Characterize phenolic compound chemistry and functionallity. Characterize sorghum phenolic compounds functionality in food and industrial products.
