Abstract:Beneficial polyphenols in apples can reach the stomach as complexes formed with salivary proteins. The present study aimed at documenting the interactions between salivary proteins and cider apple polyphenols and the fate of complexes during gastric digestion. A polyphenolic extract was mixed with human saliva, and interactions were characterized by analyzing proteins and polyphenols in the insoluble and soluble fractions of the mixtures, before and after in vitro gastric digestion. Results confirmed that prol… Show more
