The hybrids are new varieties that resistant to the cryptogamic diseases of vines, and they may be a good solution reduction pesticide use. However, these have appeared recently only few studies been conducted check quality wine produce. In this study, wines originated from were chemically characterized (polyphenols, tannins, anthocyanins, color analysis). Results show their oenological paramet...

Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) is the most prevalent and associated with dental caries. Here we aim to identify, through an in silico study, potential bioactive molecules against S. mutans. Twenty-four proven action were selected: 1-methoxyficifolinol; 5,7,2′,4′-tetrahydroxy-8-lavandulylflavanone (sophoraflavanone G); 6,8-diprenylgenistein; apigenin; artocarpesin; artocarpin; darbergioidin; d...

Epidemiological studies suggest that a moderate consumption of anthocyanins may be associated with protection against coronary heart disease. The main dietary sources of anthocyanins include red-coloured fruits and red wine. Although dietary anthocyanins comprise a diverse mixture of molecules, little is known how structural diversity relates to their bioavailability and biological function. Th...

The aim of this work was to investigate the effect of freezing and long-term frozen storage on total phenolic, total anthocyanin contents and antioxidant activity of highbush blueberries (Vaccinium corymbosum L.). In addition, a HPLC method was developed for the determination of individual anthocyanins and chlorogenic acid contents. Blueberries were frozen at –18°C and –35°C and were stored at ...

OBJECTIVE To estimate flavonoid intake in the Australian population. DESIGN Flavonoid consumption was estimated from 24-hour recall data and apparent consumption data using US Department of Agriculture flavonoid composition data. SUBJECTS The National Nutrition Survey 1995 assessed dietary intake (24-hour recall) in a representative sample (n=13,858) of the Australian population aged 2 year...
