A comprehensive review of agrimoniin.Plant tannins are a unique class of polyphenols with relatively high molecular weights.  Within the ellagitannins group, agrimoniin--dimeric ellagitannin--is one of the most representative compounds found in many plant materials belonging to the Rosaceae family.  Agrimoniin was first isolated in 1982 from roots of Agrimonia pilosa Ledeb.  Agrimoniin is a constituent of medicinal plants, which are often applied orally in the form of infusions, decoctions, or tinctures.
