Letter to Editor: We read with interest the AHA consensus statement “Wine and Your Heart” by Goldberg et al.1 Observational studies suggest an inverse association between the consumption of alcoholic beverages and coronary artery disease. It has been suggested that red wine might be more protective than other alcoholic beverages, although observational studies have wide variations in methodolog...

In error-correcting codes, locality refers to several different ways of quantifying how easily a small amount of information can be recovered from encoded data. In this work, we study a notion of locality called the s-Disjoint-Repair-Group Property (s-DRGP). This notion can interpolate between two very different settings in coding theory: that of Locally Correctable Codes (LCCs) when s is large...

Resveratrol (3,4,5-trihydroxy-trans-stilbene), a phytoalexin found in grape skin, grape products, and peanuts as well as red wine, has been reported to have various biological and pharmacological properties. The purpose of this study was to investigate the anti-obesity effect of resveratrol-amplified grape skin extracts on adipocytes. The anti-obesity effects of grape skin extracts were investi...

The aim of the experiment was to determine amino acid content in 3 grape varieties by-products (bunch, pomace, stem) from Austria (AT) and Slovakia (SK). In total, 54 samples Zweigelt (ZG), Pinot Blanc (PB) Green Veltliner (GV) white skinned 6 different locations (Nitra Vienna wine region) Vitis vinifera sp. were analysed. each variety acids composition determined for whole (bunch) industry (po...

Title of Document: ANTIOXIDANT AND ANTIPROLIFERATIVE PROPERTIES OF SELECTED GRAPE SEED EXTRACTS Raquel Zorah Bloom, Master of Science, 2009 Directed By: Associate Professor Dr. Liangli Yu Nutrition and Food Science This study examined chardonnay, muscadine, concord, and ruby red grape seed oil and flour extracts for antioxidant and anti-proliferative properties. The extracts were tested for tot...

In contrast to the well-described various biological effects of grape wines, the potential effects of commonly consumed blackberry wine have not been studied. We examined in vitro antioxidant and vasodilatory effects of four blackberry wines and compared them with the effects of two red and two white grape wines. Although some blackberry wines had lower total phenolic content relative to the re...

Grapes, particularly the species Vitis vinifera L., are one of most widely grown crops in world. Winemaking processes generate a high amount residues, which currently pose an environmental and economic sustainability problem for companies sector. For this reason, solutions being explored development new products with high-added value derived from valorization these residues. One wastes produced...
