Exploratory analysis of bioactive compounds and antioxidant potential of grape (Vitis vinifera) pomace

Review of the pharmacological effects of Vitis vinifera (Grape) and its bioactive compounds.

Vitis vinifera, known as the grapevine, is native to southern Europe and Western Asia. Grape seed and skin contain several active components including flavonoids, polyphenols, anthocyanins, proanthocyanidins, procyanidines, and the stilbene derivative resveratrol. Grape seed extract in particular has been reported to possess a broad spectrum of pharmacological and therapeutic effects such as an...

Screening and Identificationin Vitro Antioxidant Activities of Phytochemical Compounds in Ethanolic Grape (vitis Vinifera) Seed Extract

ABSTARCT Grape (Vitis vinifera) seed extract found to be exhibits wide range of beneficial effects insights to screen the potential compounds which includes polyphenolic compounds both flavonoids and non-flavonoids that show antioxidant effects. In this present study phytochemical screening of alkaloids, flavonoids, glycosides, polyphenol and flavonoids, tannins, and sterols were presented in t...

In vitro and in vivo evaluation of the antioxidant and prooxidant activity of phenolic compounds obtained from grape (Vitis vinifera) pomace.

The antioxidant and/or prooxidant ability of extracts obtained from wine waste were analyzed using in vitro and in vivo assays. Cyclic voltammetry was used as the in vitro assay to determine the antioxidant and/or prooxidant properties and, the in vivo effect on mycelial growth of the fungus Botrytis cinerea was evaluated. In addition, the prooxidant activity was evaluated by intracellular oxid...

The Evolutionary Genomics of Grape (Vitis vinifera ssp. vinifera) Domestication

Evolutionary genomics of grape (Vitis vinifera ssp. vinifera) domestication

We gathered genomic data from grapes (Vitis vinifera ssp. vinifera), a clonally propagated perennial crop, to address three ongoing mysteries about plant domestication. The first is the duration of domestication; archaeological evidence suggests that domestication occurs over millennia, but genetic evidence indicates that it can occur rapidly. We estimated that our wild and cultivated grape sam...
