Arctic bramble cell cultures as a source of berry phenolics
Berries are rich in phenolic compounds with beneficial biological properties for human health. Arctic bramble (Rubus arcticus) grows in borealic zone, and its ruby red berries are well known for good taste and flavour. In addition, arctic bramble is rich in bioactive phenolic compounds, especially t...
