报告摘要：Maple species including red maple (Acer rubrum) and sugar maple (Acer saccharum) are indigenous to eastern North America and widely known for their sap, which is used to produce maple syrup, a premium natural sweetener. Our group has initiated a program to investigate the phytochemical constituents of maple syrup and red maple plant parts, as well as their biological activities including antioxidant, anti-diabetes, and skin protective effects. In addition, we have developed Maplifa®, a phenolics enriched red maple leaves extract, as a bioactive cosmeceutical ingredient.
