This diphenol compound is metabolized, producing viniferin, pterostilbene and piceid, a resveratrol glucoside. |
To remove glucoside oleuropein, one either puts the picked olives in lye, salt, brine, or repeated baths of water. |
Even the common linseed contains a glucoside which breaks up into sugar, prussic acid, and a ketone. |
The first synthetic vanillin was produced by German chemists in 1874 from coniferin, the glucoside found in the sapwood of certain conifers. |
Emulsine has the property of being able to hydrolyse the glucoside amygdalin to glucose, benzaldehyde, and hydrocyanic acid. |
The fruit, a drupe with fleshy pulp and a high fat content, contains a glucoside which makes olives, especially unripe ones, very bitter. |
