Delineation of the Cardioprotective Agents found in red wine
… of amphoterics by oxidative fuming, followed by reduction to recover base metals from the slag takes place. The PGMs are reported mainly to the metal alloy phase along with the base metals during this process. The project discussed in this report deals with the treatment of this furnace alloy …

The role of melatonin in red wine-induced cardioprotection
… that the regular moderate consumption of red wine confers cardioprotection. However, the exact components in red wine that confer this effect are unclear. Previous studies performed in our laboratory suggest that neither the well-known polyphenol resveratrol nor alcohol (12%) present in …

Strategies for Increasing the Release of Pigments in Red Wine
<p>The perception of wine’s quality is directly influenced by its color. Anthocyanin molecules are responsible for imparting color to red wines. They are extracted from grape skins during alcoholic fermentation. This work compares the effects of three parameters: berry integrity, enzyme addition, …

Isolation And Characterization Of Natural Alpha-Glucosidase Inhibitors From Antioxidant Rich Red Wine Grapes (vitis Vinifera)
… Dietary antioxidants have been associated with a reduced risk of type 2 diabetes. Grape pomace contains considerable amounts of polyphenols and it has been reported to exhibit an inhibitory activity against alpha- glucosidases. Alpha-glucosidases, in turn, play a major role in controlling starch …

The effect of pH and ethanol on the astringent sub-qualities of red wine, and the implications for optimum grape maturity /
… to assess the astringent sub-qualities of red wine. The influence of pH and ethanol on the sensation of astringency in red wine was evaluated, using a de-alcoholized red wine. A portion of the wine was adjusted to the pH values of 3.2, 3.4, 3.6 and 3.8, and another portion was adjusted to …

Antioxidant activity, protective effects and absorption of polyphenolic compounds
… and quantify the major phenolic components of red wine and to assess the contribution of individual compounds to the total antioxidant activity. Red wines were analysed for their phenolic content and antioxidant activity using a range of complementary techniques including HPLC-tandem mass …

Exploring the cardioprotective effect of synthetic wine in Long Evans rats
… Background: Moderate and chronic consumption of red wine protects against cardiovascular disease. Wine is a complex matrix containing multiple molecules whose concentrations can vary from one bottle to another. Therefore, the delineation of the putative cardioprotective components in wine such as …

Potential health benefits of antioxidant effects of wine on lipids
The consumption of wine dates back to the Stone Age, but its potential health benefits only really began to make an impact after the French Paradox was postulated by Renaud and de Lorgeril in the 1990s. Their observations indicated that moderate consumption of red wine may have health benefits. …

Attracting dark-eyed fruit flies, drosophila repleta (diptera: drosophilidae), in swine facilities using color and odor
… out at the University of Illinois Imported Swine Facility. Pinot Noir red wine, apple cider vinegar, and wet swine feed (the on-site material fed on by the flies) were used in volatile preference field trials. While there appeared to be some color preference in laboratory trials, field color …

The role of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR-4) in wine-induced cardioprotection
Moderate and chronic consumption of red wine confers cardioprotection. Melatonin, present in wine, may contribute to this cardioprotective effect. Melatonin confers cardioprotection via the activation of tumor necrosis factoralpha (TNF-α) and the signal transducer and activator of …

Potential cardioprotective effect of chronic, moderate consumption of reduced-alcohol wine in a rat model of pulmonary hypertension
… to arterial and ventricular dysfunction. Red wine has powerful antioxidant properties and is cardioprotective. However, side effects of alcohol may limit the use of wine as a therapeutic agent. The aim of this study was to test whether reduced-alcohol red wine (RARW) or regular red wine …

A study of Glycosides in grapes and wines of Vitis vinifera cv. Shiraz / Patrick George Iland.
Studies the links between grape composition, wine composition and wine sensory properties. Developed a new method of measuring glycoside concentration in grapes (glycosyl-glucose assay) and a modified measurement of wine colour density in red wine. These were used to analyse samples of Shiraz …

Evaluating Winemaking Applications of Ultrafiltration
… potential applications of ultrafiltration in the wine industry and wine science have not been extensively explored. Therefore, this PhD project investigates the feasibility of applying UF technology in winemaking to improve sensory attributes such as colour, texture, mouthfeel, aroma, and flavour, …
