Strawberries are a rich source of phenolic compounds which
have been studied for their health promoting properties. It
is generally assumed that to impart benefit phenolics must
be absorbed. The aim of this study was to characterize and
quantify strawberry-derived polyphenolic compounds and
their metabolites in plasma samples obtained from men and
women consuming 4 doses of strawberry in a beverage with
a standard western meal. Strawberry beverages contained
0, 10, 20 or 40 g freeze dried strawberry powder and were
consumed with a high carbohydrate moderate fat meal (650
kcal). Plasma samples were collected every 30-60 min for 6
h after meal and beverage consumption. Analysis of plasma
by Q-TOF LC/MS and LC-MS/MS revealed 33 compounds of
which 7 had not been reported previously. Pelargonidin-Oglucuronide
(PG) was the most abundant metabolite. PG area
under the concentration curve (AUC) increased with dose
