Abstract: Polyphenols are the important secondary metabolites of plants. Because of their special chemical properties and biological activities, plant polyphenols are come under broad attention for their potential ecological significance. This paper reviewed the related research advances, prospected the future directions, and evaluated the quantification methods to recommend some simple and commonly used ones for non-specialists in chemical analysis.
