Abstract

From the beginning of lives on earth, nature is contributing different products to the system constantly and endlessly. Plants synthesize a large number of organic compounds, which are commonly known as primary and secondary metabolites with various applications. Tannins are one of the secondary metabolites solely obtained from the natural or plant sources where it present in the woods, barks, leaves, fruits, cell sap or in vacuoles. Chemically, they are polyphenolic colloidal solutions with complex astringent properties and it has the ability to tan or convert the skin of animals into leather. Depending on the complexity of chemical nature, tannins are classified into two types i.e., hydrolysable tannins and condensed tannins. More than 8000 different tannins of free or bound forms have been detected which can be used in various sector. Despite of its astringent property, tannins and polyphenols can show their identity with different applications with properties like anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial, anti-aging, stomachic, cardio-tonic, diuretics, laxatives, hypoglycemic, anti-corrosive or in photography, food, neutraceuticals or cosmeceuticals. In this review, we discuss about different tannins and polyphenols obtained from different sources, their types, about important chemicals and their remarkable applications in different fields of the system.
