A study concerning the influence of climatic conditions on the oenological parameters of wine cultivars was carried out using six wine cultivars under the climatic conditions of 2019. Wine samples were taken from Ştefăneşti–Argeş, Babadag and Drăgăşani viticultural centres. Determination of the oenological parameters has been made for the following wine cultivars: Riesling Italian, Fetească Regală, Sauvignon Blanc, Feteascǎ Neagră, Merlot and Pinot Noir. The chemical parameters were determined using a Mindray BS 200 oenological analyser and the statistical analysis of the results was carried out using the Duncan test. A correlation was made between the parameters of the six wine cultivars from the three viticultural centres, focusing on the correlations between the total polyphenols of wines and their antioxidant activity.

Aim: This study was designed to investigate the phytochemical profile and the cytotoxic activities of the eco-friendly extracts of olive leaves from Chemlali cultivar. Materials and Methods: The Phenolic composition of olive leaves extracts, the antioxidant activity and the cytotoxic effects against MCF-7 and HepG2 cells were determined. Results: Olive leaves extracts showed relevant total polyphenols contents. Oleuropein was the major detected phenolic compound reaching a concentration of 16.9 mg/ml. The antioxidant potential of the studied extracts varied from 23.7 to 46.5mM Trolox equivalents as revealed by DPPH and ABTS assays. Cytotoxicity experiments showed similar trends for both HepG2 and MCF-7 cells with the infusion extract being the most active. Conclusion: This study denotes that olive leaves may have great potential as endless bioresource of valuable bioactive compounds which may have a wide application.
