Trans resveratrol has the chemical name 3,4',5-trihydroxystilbene (3,5,4'-trihydroxystilbene) and belongs to a class of polyphenol plant toxin-fighting compounds. In nature, resveratrol exists in both cis and trans forms and can be found widely in plant roots, stems, flowers, leaves, skins, and fruits. It's a non-flavonoid polyphenol containing a stilbene structure. High-purity resveratrol appears as a colorless needle-like crystalline solid, while commercial products are generally gray-white or white powders.
Currently, trans resveratrol has been identified in 72 species across 31 genera in 12 plant families, including grapes (Vitaceae), lily family plants (Liliaceae), knotweed (Polygonaceae), and legumes (Fabaceae). It's mainly found in Polygonaceae plants like Polygonum multiflorum and Japanese knotweed, grapes, lilies like Veratrum, and peanuts. So far, research shows that resveratrol has anti-tumor, antioxidant, cardiovascular-protective, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, anti-platelet aggregation, immune-regulating, and chemopreventive effects, making it highly valuable for medicine and promising in the market.
