Some polyphenols are specific to particular food (flavanones in citrus fruit, isoflavones in soya, phloridzin in apples); whereas others, such as quercetin, are found in all plant products such as fruit, vegetables, cereals, leguminous plants, tea, and wine. This article is about larger phenolic substances.n arthropods such as insects and crustaceans polyphenols play a role in epicuticle hardening (sclerotization). The hardening of the cuticle is due to the presence of a polyphenol oxidase. In crustaceans, there is a second oxidase activity leading to cuticle pigmentation.
Eye Socket Fracture (Orbital Fracture) The eye socket, or orbit, is made up of the bones that surround your eye. If the bones around your eye are hit hard enough, they can break. This is called an orbital fracture. If your eye socket is treated successfully, and the injury to your eye or tissues around your eye was not too severe, you may not have any long-lasting effects from an eye socket fracture.
This article is about the orbit, the anatomical space that contains the eye. For other uses of orbit or orbita see Orbit (disambiguation) and Orbita (disambiguation) .In anatomy, the orbit is the cavity or socket of the skull in which the eye and its appendages are situated.Orbit can refer to the bony socket, or it can also be used to imply the contents. In the adult human, the volume of the orbit is 30 mL, of which the eye occupies 6.5 mL.he orbits are conical or four-sided pyramidal cavities, which open into the midline of the face and point back into the head. Each consists of a base, an apex and four walls. There are two important foramina, or windows, two important fissures, or grooves, and one canal surrounding the globe in the orbit.
