Effect of food processing on the antioxidant activity of flavones from Polygonatum odoratum (Mill.) Druce

Polygonatum odoratum (Mill.) Druce (POD) is a natural plant widely used for food and medicine, thanks to its rich content of a strong antioxidant agent called homoisoflavones. However, food processing methods could affect the stability of POD flavones, resulting in changes to their antioxidant activ...
