Analysis of Flavonoids
Background
Flavonoids are a diverse group of plant compounds that belong to the larger class of phytonutrients known as polyphenols.
They are widely distributed in various fruits, vegetables, herbs, and beverages like tea and wine.
Flavonoids are responsible for the vibrant colors of many plant tissues, such as the red, blue, and purple hues in berries
and the yellow and orange tones in citrus fruits.
There are more than 6,000 known flavonoids, and they can be categorized into several subclasses based on their chemical structures, including flavonols, flavones, flavanones, flavan-3-ols (catechins), anthocyanins, and isoflavones.
There are more than 6,000 known flavonoids, and they can be categorized into several subclasses based on their chemical structures, including flavonols, flavones, flavanones, flavan-3-ols (catechins), anthocyanins, and isoflavones.
Flavonoids are known for their potential health benefits due to their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
They scavenge harmful free radicals, which can cause oxidative stress and damage to cells. By neutralizing free radicals,
flavonoids help protect the body's cells from oxidative damage and contribute to overall health and well-being.
Flavonoids in Different Types of Biomass

- Isoflavones - These compounds are particularly rich in the roots of leguminous plants, especially soybeans. They function as phytoestrogens, plant compounds that can interact with estrogen receptors in animals and humans. Isoflavones are studied for potential benefits in alleviating symptoms of menopause, protecting against certain cancers, and promoting heart health.
- Hesperidin - This flavanone glycoside is found in the roots of citrus trees, among other plant parts. Hesperidin is known for its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and potential cardiovascular benefits.

Examples of some flavonoids found in flowers are listed below:
Get more info...Flowers
- Anthocyanins - As one of the most common types of flavonoids, anthocyanins give flowers their red, purple, and blue pigments. The coloration helps to attract pollinators to the flowers. They are found in a wide variety of flowers such as petunias, roses, violets, and pansies. Click here to read more about anthocyanins.
- Flavones - Flavones are less colorful than anthocyanins, but they are crucial to the plant's interaction with the environment. They help in regulating cellular activity and fighting off microbial infections. They also contribute to the subtle coloration of white or pale yellow flowers.
- Flavonols - In flowers, flavonols can influence petal color, particularly in enhancing the colors produced by other pigments. For instance, they can modify the color of anthocyanin pigments from a true blue to a more purplish-blue.
- Chalcones and Aurones - These flavonoids provide the bright yellow colors found in many flowers such as sunflowers, and daisies.

Extraction of Flavonoids from Biomass
The extraction process, including the solvents and methods used, can influence the concentration and types of flavonoids present in the final extract.
It is often the case that a balance needs to be found between fully-extracting all flavonoids while also ensuring that the compounds that are
obtained are of a high quality and not degraded.
At Celignis we have extensive experience in the design and optimisation of extraction protocols for a wide variety of chemical constituents from many different biomass types. If needed we can also work on processes to separate and purify the target compounds.

€1.5m Funding Success in CBE-JU
Celignis is a Partner in 3 Successful Proposals for EU Funding
We are pleased to announce that three of the proposals involving Celignis, submitted to the CBE-JU programme for funding collaborative biomass research in Europe, were successful. These projects will provide an additional funding of €1.5m to Celignis and build on our achievements in other CBE and EU projects. In particular, the projects are all at enhanced TRLs (6/7) and will use our existing Celignis Bioprocess infrastructure and will also fund further development of our bioprocessing capacities and the Bioprocess Development Services we offer our clients.
Details on the funded projects are provided below:
BIONEER - This project was funded under CBE-JU topic IA-06 and focuses on the TRL 6/7 production of biobased platform chemicals. Celignis's activities in the project focus on scaling up the work undertaken in our ongoing
