ND (not detected) Naringenin, hesperidin, pinostrombin, and resveratrol were not detected in the bee pollen samples. # p-coumaric, ferulic, caffeic, and chlorogenic acids are derivatives of cinnamic acid (which does not contain phenolic groups), and for this reason it was still included in the table.
