Tannins are structurally diverse food polyphenols whose behavior cannot be predicted from total tannin content alone. This review uses tannin class, linkage chemistry, degree-of-polymerization metrics, galloylation and hydroxylation, conformational flexibility, and oxidation state as a common framework for interpreting...
