Fuel potential and properties of grape pomace hydrochar

Ensilage and bioconversion of grape pomace into fuel ethanol.

Two types of grape pomace were ensiled with eight strains of lactic acid bacteria (LAB). Both fresh grape pomace (FrGP) and fermented grape pomace (FeGP) were preserved through alcoholic fermentation but not malolactic conversion. Water leaching prior to storage was used to reduce water-soluble carbohydrates and ethanol from FrGP and FeGP, respectively, to increase malolactic conversion. Leache...

Recovery of aromatic aglycones from grape pomace

Procyanidin content of grape seed and pomace, and total anthocyanin content of grape pomace as affected by extrusion processing.

UNLABELLED Grape juice processing by-products, grape seed and pomace are a rich source of procyanidins, compounds that may afford protection against chronic disease. This study was undertaken to identify optimal extrusion conditions to enhance the contents of monomers and dimers at the expense of large molecular weight procyanidin oligomers and polymers in grape seed and pomace. Extrusion varia...

Changes of the Anthocyanins and Antioxidant properties of Concord Grape (Vitis labrusca) Pomace After Acid Hydrolysis

Grape pomace contains high levels of valuable antioxidants such as anthocyanins and phenolic compounds that help prevent chronic diseases such as cardiovascular problems and cancers. In this study, Concord grape pomace was soaked in acidic solutions at different time intervals and pHs in a water bath at 80 o C. Five kinds of anthocyanins were released and identified in the pomace after acid hyd...

Potential Anticancer Properties of Grape Antioxidants

Dietary intake of foods rich in antioxidant properties is suggested to be cancer protective. Foods rich in antioxidant properties include grape (Vitis vinifera), one of the world's largest fruit crops and most commonly consumed fruits in the world. The composition and cancer-protective effects of major phenolic antioxidants in grape skin and seed extracts are discussed in this review. Grape ski...
