(73) Assignee: WISCONSIN ALUMNI RESEARCH The methods include combining a phospholipid-containing FOUNDATION, Madison, WI (US) composition with the phenol-containing medium to generate a combined medium, incubating the combined medium to (21) Appl. No.: 17/003,625 precipitate phenols in the combined medium and thereby form a phenol precipitate phase and a phenol-depleted phase, and separating the phenol precipitate phase and the (22) Filed: Aug. 26, 2020 phenol-depleted phase. The methods can further include extracting phenols from the separated phenol precipitate phase. The extracting can include mixing the separated Related U.S. Application Data phenol precipitate phase with an extraction solvent to solu (60) Provisional application No. 62/891,644, filed on Aug. bilize in the extraction solvent at least a portion of the 26, 2019. phenols originally present in the phenol precipitate phase. phosphol ipid phenol containing containing . • composition ( e.g., medium • lecithin) . ·. · .. agitate . centrifuge mtBBBtt@tfililli@$ §%§§§§%} precipitation ' (e.g., fruit juice, vegetable juice, collect J blanch water, precipitate aqueous botanical extracts) ""O ~.....
