Abstract Polyphenol is an important secondary metabolite with unique physiological functions and biological activity. The
polyphenols in different plants and biomass have different chemical structures, which needs various extraction
methods to obtain them. Recently, plant polyphenols and their application research in food and medicine have
become a research hotspot, which is mainly focused on preparation, purification, structural identification, and
biological activity assays. Among these researches, extraction and separation are the key sections to investigate
the structure and activity of polyphenol. Hence, this review summarized the recent extraction and separation
techniques of polyphenol, including solvent extraction, supercritical fluid extraction, ultrasonic extraction, enzymatic… More >
