The Biosynthesis, Accumulation of Phenolic Compounds and Antioxidant Response in L. Plants Inoculated with a Biofertilizer Based on Soil Yeast and Iron Nanoparticles.

Lettuce is a vegetable that contributes vitamins, minerals, fibre, phenolic compounds and antioxidants to the human diet. In the search for improving production conditions and crop health, the use of microorganisms with plant growth-promoting capabilities, such as soil yeasts (PGPY), in conjunction with nanotechnology could offer sustainable development of agroecosystems. This study evaluated the synthesis of health-promoting bioactive compounds in lettuce under the application of soil yeast and an iron nanoparticle (NP-FeO) encapsulated in alginate beads.

Use of Glutathione, Pure or as a Specific Inactivated Yeast, as an Alternative to Sulphur Dioxide for Protecting White Grape Must from Browning.

One of the problems that most seriously affects oenology today is enzymatic browning, especially when grapes are infected by grey rot. We studied the capacity of glutathione (GSH) and a specific inactivated dry yeast rich in glutathione (IDY-GSH) to protect white grape must from browning compared to that of sulphur dioxide (SO). The results indicate that SO drastically reduces the oxygen consumption rate (by around 72%), protects hydroxycinnamic acids from oxidation and prevents grape must against browning even in the presence of laccase.

Dark-Chocolate-Coated BRS Clara Raisins: Phenolic Composition and Sensory Attributes.

Dark chocolate dragée confectionary was made with BRS Clara raisins pre-treated with extra virgin olive oil (EVOO). The evaluation of the changes in the phenolic composition (flavonols, hydrocinnamic acid derivatives (HCADs), stilbenes and flavan-3-ol monomers, dimers, and proanthocyanidins (PAs)) resulting from the covering process showed that the chocolate coating was responsible for an increase in the concentrations of flavan-3-ols and PAs when compared to just the raisins. For the flavonols and HCADs, a reduction in the total concentration of compounds was observed when comparing the dragées to the raisins.

Flavanol Glycoside Content of Grape Seeds and Skins of Varieties Grown in Castilla-La Mancha, Spain.

Glycosylated flavanols (monoglycosides and diglycosides) in skin and seed extracts of grapes grown in Castilla-La Mancha (Spain) were investigated using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-ESI-QQQ-MS/MS). Six grape varieties (Airén, Tempranillo, the recently identified Albillo Dorado, Montonera del Casar, Moribel, and Tinto Fragoso) were studied over two consecutive years (2016 and 2017). A total of twenty monomeric flavanol monoglycosides, four diglycosylated monomers, and three dimeric flavanol monoglycosides were detected in all grape samples.

Antiproliferative and cytotoxic effects of grape pomace and grape seed extracts on colorectal cancer cell lines.

Grape pomace is the source of bioactive compounds (anthocyanins, flavonols, flavan-3-ols, and stilbenes) which exhibit antiproliferative actions on cell cultures. We have investigated the antitumoral effects of grape pomace and grape seed extracts on colon cancer cells (Caco-2, HT-29) and fibroblasts.
