  <name>Lignan</name>
  <description>Lignan is a member of the class of compounds known as 9,9p-dihydroxyaryltetralin lignans. 9,9p-dihydroxyaryltetralin lignans are lignans with a structure based on the 1-phenyltetralin skeleton carrying a hydroxyl group at the 9- and the 9'- position. Lignan is practically insoluble (in water) and a weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Lignan can be found in pomegranate, which makes lignan a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product. The lignans are a large group of polyphenols found in plants. Some examples of lignans are enterolignans, enterodiol and enterolactone .</description>
