Product Overview
Description:
5-(3'-Hydroxyphenyl)-γ-Valerolactone is a prominent, low-molecular-weight polyphenol metabolite generated through the extensive anaerobic biotransformation of dietary flavonoids, including (+)-catechin and (−)-epicatechin, driven exclusively by the metabolic activity of mammalian gut microbiota, making it a critical biomarker for tracking gastrointestinal polyphenol absorption and bioavailability.
