Tannin addition as an enological practice has been widely used in the winemaking process because of their ability of improving the aroma and sensory characteristics and stabilizing of color of red wine. In this study, hydrolysable, condensed tannins and their mixtures in different ratios were added into two Merlot wines to investigate their effect on the wine overall quality. The contents of 15 phenolic compounds were detected by HPLC-DAD, CIELAB color parameters were measured using a chromatic aberration meter, sensory evaluation was accomplished using the assessment standards established by the American Wine Association, and antioxidant activities were analyzed using DPPH and ABTS radical tests. The results indicated that adding tannins affected phenolic composition, contents and color of wine. The specific effects varied by tannins. Furthermore, tannin addition, especially the mixed tannins, improved the sensory qualities and antioxidant activities greatly. The mixed tannins added with a ratio of 1 : 1 between hydrolyzable and condensed tannins exhibited a better effect on both sensory qualities and antioxidant activities, and it could be recommended as an ideal tannin addition for wine quality improvement.

Polyphenols, as one of the primary compounds produced by plant secondary metabolism, have garnered considerable attention because of their non-toxic, environmentally friendly, and biodegradable properties, as well as their notable medicinal value. This study presents a metabolomic analysis of polyphenols from 11 woody plants, including , , and , investigating a total of 40 polyphenolic metabolites. A differential metabolite dynamics map highlighted the five most differentiated substances among the 11 plants, including vitexin, dihydromyricetin, genistin, resveratrol, and isorhamnetin.

The extrudates were processed using a twin screw extruder and analyzed for their nutritional and anti-nutritional properties. The findings revealed a rising pattern in the content of fiber, moisture, protein, ash and fat as the substitution of Bambara groundnut increased in the extrudate.
