Abstract
The dimeric procyanidins, B2, B1 and B5, and two procyanidin trimers based on (β)βepicatechin were isolated from cider by column chromatography on Sephadex LH20 and counterβcurrent distribution between ethyl acetate and water. The concentrations of these and the other phenolic components in some experimental ciders were estimated by chromatographic separation on columns of Sephadex LH20 employing gradient elution from 20 to 100% methanol. Oxidation occurring during juice extraction markedly lowered the level of the polymeric procyanidins with consequent reduction in bitterness and astringency.

## Abstract A method is described for the separation and quantitative determination of the monomeric phenolics of ciders. These are fractionally eluted from a silicaβgel column with 2βmethylpropanβ2βol/chloroform mixtures of increasing 2βmethylpropanβ2βol content. The u.v. spectrum of each fraction
