Kasote, D. M.
- Abstract
Flaxseed is a rich source of different types of phenolics such as lignans, phenolic acids, flavonoids, phenylpropanoids and tannins. To date, extensive investigations has been undertaken to demonstrate antioxidant potential of flaxseed phenolics. However, antioxidant potential of all the flaxseed phenolics has not been collectively discussed. Hence, the aim of this article is to highlight the various types of phenolic components reported in the flaxseed; and to conduct a review of studies on antioxidant potential of flaxseed and its phenolic components. Future research perspectives pertaining to antioxidant potential of flaxseed phenolics and their possible commercial exploitation are also briefly discussed.
