Nutritional Implications of Phenolic Monomers and Lignin: a Review
Abstract
Simple phenolic monomers and lignin are derived from the same biosynthetic pathway and occur in all vascular plants. p-Coumaric and ferulic acids appear to be the most common phenolic monomers in diets of animals. Free phenolics generally depress feed intake by animals. Several mammalian enzyme systems have been shown to be inhibited by phenolic monomers in vitro. Growth of both aerobic and anaerobic bacteria is inhibited by phenolic monomers. These monomers also are involved in cross-linking lignin with plant cell wall carbohydrates. The association of lignin with cell wall carbohydrates depresses extent of fiber digestion. Lignin is capable of binding nitrates, carcinogens, bile salts, amino acids and possibly minerals in the gastrointestinal tract. As with phenolic monomers, lignin inhibits microbial growth and enzymatic digestion. Soluble lignin-carbohydrate complexes are formed in the rumen and phenolic monomers bound to the cell wall are solubilized by bacterial action. The interrelationship of phenolic monomers and lignin requires that both groups be considered in discussing the effects of plant phenolics on nutrition.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
