Abstract Obtaining red quality wines depends on the raw matter composition and also on the extraction technology, used in the processing of grape and must. Thus, two methods of maceration-fermentation on lees (classical and in rotating tanks), two thermal methods (thermomaceration and microwave maceration) and two methods rarely used industrially in wine-making (cryomaceration and ultrasound maceration) were experimented. Even in the years with less than favorable climatic conditions, from Merlot grape variety one obtained for the most part, legally speaking, quality wines (with the exception of microwave macerated and cryomacerated wines, which had only 21-22 g/L non-reducing extract. In regard to alcohol content, all obtained samples had more than 11% vol. The obtained Merlot wines were rich in glycerol (8-9 g/L), fact that favorably influenced their organoleptic traits. Total phenolic content had values between 1,97 and 2,86 g/L for the Merlot wines obtained through macerationfermentation and thermomaceration. Ultrasound maceration did not favor phenolic extraction from grape skins and the obtained wines were poor in anthocyans and tannins (0,94-1,1 g/L). In regard to the maceration technology used, free anthocyans were found in variable proportions in wines, between 77 and 91%. The sum of acylated anthocyans participation percentages was between 8,8 and 22,7%, and the ratio between the acetylated and cumarilated participation percentages registered small values, varietyspecific, between 1,1 and 2,8.

<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Aim</strong>: The aim of the present study was to examine the influence of protein fining on selected quality parameters of wines made from indigenous Hellenic red grape varieties.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Methods and Results</strong>: Three different commercial hydrolyzed gelatins and egg albumin were added to two young red wines at three concentrations commonly used in winemaking. The cultivars selected were Hellenic native <em>V. vinifera</em> species used for the production of high quality Appellation of Origin wines (Agiorgitiko and Xinomavro). All the quality parameters studied (anthocyanin concentration, color intensity and hue, ionization degree, total phenolic content, DPPH radical scavenging activity, tannin and polysaccharide concentration, gelatin and HCl indexes, as well as individual phenolic content) were significantly decreased after the addition of the fining agents. The decrease observed was mainly dependent on grape variety, which genetically determines the wine’s phenolic composition, and to a lesser extent on the fining agent used and the dosage applied. In general, treated wines obtained better scores in sensory analysis as compared to untreated ones, although statistically significant differences were only obtained in the Agiorgitiko wine regarding color intensity and hue, acidity, balance, aftertaste, and overall impression.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Conclusion</strong>: Wine quality parameters after fining were mainly influenced by the wine’s initial phenolic composition, which is determined mostly by grape variety.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Significance and impact of the study</strong>: The outcomes of such study might be of practical interest to winemakers since they could optimize red wine production technology by selecting the appropriate fining agent according to the specific phenolic profiles of the produced wines and thus improve their quality.</p>

Corn cobs were extracted sequentially assisted by ultrasonication with ethanol and acetone solvents for 60 minutes to obtain free phenolic extract. The residue from free phenolic extraction was hydrolyzed with 2 M NaOH and neutralized and extracted with ethyl acetate to obtain bound phenolic extract. The three extracts were analyzed for total phenolic content and evaluated for antioxidant activity and inhibitory activity of AGEs formation. The total phenolic content of bound phenolic extract (EFT), acetone-free phenolic extract (EFBA) and ethanol-free phenolic extract (EFBE) were 288,39; 100,32 and 92,95 μg/mL expressed as gallic acid equivalents, respectively. EFT extract showed higher DPPH free radical scavenging activity and total antioxidants more than EFBA extract and EFBE extract. Anti-glication of EFT, EFBA and EFBE were 61,93; 64,42 dan 66,31%, respectively. These result concluded that the EFT extract from corn cobs contains compounds having antioxidant properties and potential as anti-glication.

Cardamom (Amomum compactum  Sol. Ex Maton) is a medicinal plant that belongs to the family Zingiberaceae. Phenolic compound detected in Cardamom fruit that responsible for several pharmacological activities. Optimization used the simplex centroid design for the yield and phenolic extractions of Cardamom fruit through maceration to optimize the mixing of water, acetone, methanol, and ethanol. The extraction yield is determined by weighing the extracted material compared to the whole sample. Total phenolic content was measured by a spectrophotometric method using Folin-Ciocalteu reagent.  The results show that the best for relating extract yield is the linear model, while the quadratic model is the best to connect total phenolic content response. Water (100%) solvent extraction on Cardamom fruits obtained the highest extract yield (10.52%) and the lowest extract yield from 100% ethanol. The extraction of phenolic compounds with a mixture of water (50%)/ethanol (50%) resulted in maximum total phenolic content (168.98 mg GAE/g). However, the 100% ethanol of solvent extraction noted the minimum phenolic content (93.15 mg GAE/g). The results show that we should carefully choose the solvent mixture extraction to achieve the extract yield and phenolic extraction goals. This study first reported an optimization study on phenolic compounds extracted from Cardamom fruit.

Skin and seed grape extracts of three red varieties (Merlot, Tannat, and Syrah) at different stages of ripening were studied for their total phenolic content (TPC) by using the Folin-Ciocalteu assay and for their total antioxidant capacity (TAC) by using spectrophotometric and electrochemical assays. Flavanol and anthocyanin compositions were also investigated using Ultra Performance Liquid Chromatography coupled with Mass Spectrometry (UPLC-MS). Results showed that seeds had the highest phenolic content and the highest antioxidant potential compared to skins at all stages of ripening. The highest TPC and TAC values were measured in seeds at close to veraison and veraison ripening stages. In skins, the highest values were found at the green stage, it was in accordance with the flavanols content. The voltammetric measurements were carried out using disposable single walled carbon nanotubes modified screen-printed carbon electrodes (SWCNT-SPCE). Three peaks on voltammograms were obtained at different oxidation potentials. The first anodic peak that oxidized at a low potential describes the oxidation of ortho-dihydroxy phenols and gallate groups, the second peak corresponds to the malvidin anthocyanins oxidation and the second oxidation of flavonoids. The third voltammetric peak could be due to phenolic acids such as p-coumaric acid and ferulic acid or the second oxidation of malvidin anthocyanins. The high linear correlation was observed between antioxidant tests and flavanols in skins (0.86 ≤ r ≤ 0.94), while in seeds, ‘r’ was higher between electrochemical parameters and flavanols (0.64 ≤ r ≤ 0.8).

The effectiveness of Lactobacillus plantarum SK15 starter culture in preventing biogenic amine production, such as putrescine (PUT) and spermidine (SPD), during the fermented mushroom beverage (FMB) process using Hericium erinaceus was examined. Spontaneously fermented and starter-mediated FMB was manufactured in parallel. Besides changes in pH, total acidity content, alcohol content, amino acid content, reducing sugar content, total phenolic content, antioxidant activity, and the microbial load were examined at several sampling points during the 720-h fermentation process. As a result, the L. plantarum SK15 starter prevented biogenic amine accumulation during FMB fermentation. Moreover, starter-mediated FMB can control pH and alcohol content at an acceptable level. In addition, FMB with L. plantarum SK15 had a higher level of total phenolic content (TPC) and antioxidant activity.

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the physical and antioxidant properties of chocolate alginate beads containing Moringa oleifera leaf extract (MLE) produced with ecofriendly solvent extraction technology (Deep Eutectic Solvents). The concentration of MLE incorporated was 0, 2, 4, and 6% w / w , and hardening time for ionotropic gelation with CaCl2 solution was 2, 8, or 20 min. Freshly prepared beads were evaluated for their geometric (area, perimeter, ferret diameter, circularity, roundness), color (CIE L ∗ , a ∗ , and b ∗ and chroma), and antioxidant properties (total phenolic content and percentage inhibition of DPPH• radical). Increasing the MLE concentration resulted in beads smaller in size and more spherical, whereas hardening time only affected their circularity. MLE concentration had also a profound effect on color and antioxidant properties of the beads. As the concentration of MLE increased, the beads appeared lighter and their chroma increased. The radical scavenging activity was ameliorated by the MLE concentration increase for samples hardened for 8 and 20 min, whereas it was unaffected for those at 2 min. The hardening time on the contrary did not affect the inhibition of DPPH• values, regardless of the amount of extract added.

Pre-fermentation methods can influence the cider produced from apple juice. This study analyses the influence of pre-fermentation methods; maceration and press fractioning, on the total phenolic content of juice from four apple varieties; ‘Red Delicious’, ‘Pink Lady’, ‘Sturmer’, and ‘Bulmer’s Norman’. The must was macerated for 0 or 2 h and juice was collected at free run or under 200 kpa. Base juice characteristics and total phenolic content was analysed using the Folin–Ciocalteu method and spectrophotometric absorbance at 280 nm (A280), a method used for the analysis of white wine. Both methods of analysing the total phenolic content were used, measuring the same samples to determine if the methods are comparable. No interaction was found between pre-fermentation technique and the results varied by variety and analytical method. High pressure improved the phenolic extraction for ‘Bulmer’s Norman’ juice compared to free run juice when analysed by A280. Non-macerated juice had higher total phenolic content than macerated juice for ‘Red Delicious’ and ‘Pink Lady’ juice when analysed using the Folin–Ciocalteu method. There was a moderate positive correlation between the analytical methods.
