E-mail: NYang@kalsec.com Plant phenolics are widely distributed in nature and are well known for their remarkable anti- oxidative properties in biological systems such as plants and non-biological systems such as Special Edition 2 foods. Substantial work has been done to measure plant phenolics in different matrices; the four Article Ref. #: 1000AFTNSOJSE2105 common steps involved in a measurement process are sampling, sample preservation, sample preparation, and analysis. This review addresses how sampling and sample preservation affect Article History phenolic compounds levels and stability in different plant materials.
