Condensed tannins (CT) have been the focus of increasing interest in the last years as a result of their potent biological properties, which have prompted their use in the food and feed sector as functional ingredients. The possible exploitation of these compounds as multifunctional additives for the implementation of active food packaging has also been recently appreciated. In this perspective, an overview of the structural features, accessible sources, methods of analysis, and functional properties of CT is provided, with the aim of critically emphasizing the opportunities offered by this widespread class of natural phenolic compounds for the rational design of multifunctional and sustainable food packaging materials.
近年来，由于其强大的生物特性，缩合单宁（CT）引起了越来越多的关注，这促使它们作为功能性成分被应用于食品和饲料行业。这些化合物作为多功能添加剂在实施活性食品包装方面的潜在应用也最近受到了重视。在此背景下，本文对 CT 的结构特征、可利用来源、分析方法和功能特性进行了综述，旨在批判性地强调这一广泛存在的天然酚类化合物类别为多功能和可持续食品包装材料的合理设计所带来的机遇。
