Absorption of dimers, trimers and tetramers of procyanidins present in apple skin by IEC-18 cell monolayers

Absorption of dimers, trimers and tetramers of procyanidins present in apple skin by IEC-18 cell monolayers

The absorption of pure procyanidins (PP) and procyanidins from a procyanidin-rich fraction of apple skin (PRFAS) was determined, employing the IEC-18 cellular line as a model of paracellular transport. The percentages of absorption for each compound from the PRFAS were: (−)-epicatechin (0.17%), proc...
