Evaluation of the antioxidant activity of extracts and flavonol glycosides isolated from the seed coats of coloured beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.)
The seed coat of the common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) can be considered an important source of flavonoids. Flavonoids are well known for their beneficial effects on health long before they were isolated as effective compounds. Dry beans are typically processed and the seed coats may be removed …
