Unreferenced date December 2009 Image Monolignols.svg thumb 300px right Structures of the three commonly occurring monolignols Monolignols are phytochemical s acting as source materials for biosynthesis of both lignans and lignin . The starting material for production of monolignols is the amino acid phenylalanine . The first reactions in the biosynthesis are shared with the phenylpropanoid pathway, and monolignols are considered to be a part of this group of compounds. There are three main monolignols coniferyl alcohol , sinapyl alcohol and paracoumaryl alcohol . Different plant s use different monolignols. For example, Norway spruce lignin is almost entirely coniferyl alcohol while paracoumaryl alcohol is found almost exclusively in grass es. Monolignols are synthetised in the cytosol as glucoside s. The glucose is added to the monolignol to make them water soluble and to reduce their toxicity. The glucosides are transported through the cell membrane to the apoplast . The glucose is then removed and the monolignols are polymerised into lignin. The phenylpropene s are derived from the monolignols.

Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 Persipan from Persicus peach and Marzipan also known as Parzipan is a material used in confectionery . It is similar to marzipan but apricot or peach kernels are used instead of almond s. Persipan consists of 40 ground kernels and 60 sugar . The kernels have a strong bitter flavour caused by the presence of amygdalin , a toxic cyanogenic glycoside which has to be detoxified before the kernels can be used. The cores are normally not used otherwise, making persipan lower priced than marzipan. It also has a somewhat different taste, which is sometimes preferred by people who do not like the taste of marzipan. Persipan often contains 0.5 starch so that it can be easily differentiated from marzipan with an iodine test . Persipan is generally used in confectionery in place of marzipan and as an ingredient of pastry and sweet foods, such as Stollen . It is rarely eaten by itself. In recent years, the use of persipan has increased, and the resulting rise in demand has led to shortages of the kernels.
