Experimental data on the content of biologically valuable components in grape pomace are presented. The presence organic acids was revealed an amount from 33.35 g/kg (Saperavi) to 108.2 (Rebo). main acid is tartaric. Phenolic compounds have been identified: anthocyanins, flavones, flavan-3-ols, oxycinnamic and hydroxybenzoic acids, procyanidins. anthocyanins found 3-O-glycosides malvidin, petun...

The objective of this study was to assess the use of peach pomace in total mixed ration (TMR) silages and clarify the differences in aerobic stability between TMR and TMR silages caused by lactic acid bacteria (LAB). The TMR were prepared using peach pomace, alfalfa hay or Leymus chinensis hay, maize meal, soybean meal, cotton meal, limestone, a vitamin-mineral supplement, and salt in a ratio o...

Grapes are widely known for health benefits due to their antioxidant content. In wine production, grape stems are often discarded, though they has a higher content of antioxidants than the juice. The effectiveness of using an environmentally friendly solvent, ethanol, as a superheated liquid and supercritical fluid to extract antioxidant compounds from grape stems of organically grown Crimson S...
