21.13 Conclusion
Tannins possess an important place in medicinal chemistry, phytochemistry, as well
as in the industrial or manufacturing field. For the many past years, this secondary
metabolite has been extensively studied and for their application in different sectors,
tannin holds a favourite and remarkable place for the researchers in the way of
phytochemical researches. Many more years to come, many more researches to be
done and hopefully more applicability of tannins in more different fields yet to be
discovered. Giving a little contribution, this book chapter describes about different
types of tannins, their occurrence, extraction processes and about their versatile
applications and importance in the field of science.
