Identification and biological properties of new resveratrol derivatives formed in red wine

Pectins or pectic polysaccharides are one of the major components in grape skin cell wall, they contribute to physiological processes which determine the integrity and rigidity of grape skin tissue

La brise de mer et les facteurs climatiques qu’elle entraîne (accélération de la vitesse du vent au cours de l’après midi, augmentation de l’humidité et baisse de la temperature) sont d’un intérêt particulier pour la viticulture.

Aims: The aim of the study was to investigate whether organic or biodynamic management have a long-term impact on 1) the microbial biomass and enzymatic activity in the soil, 2) the soil microbial community, 3) flying as well as soil living arthropods and associated fungi. 

The use of new technologies such as microwaves (MW) arose in recent years as an efficient alternative to reduce the use of sulfur dioxide (SO2) and as a method for improving wines in terms of color and aroma [1, 2]. MW (non-ionizing electromagnetic waves with frequencies between 300 MHz and 300 GHz) have been widely applied in the food industry in order to reduce processing time and favor food preservation.

Ten years have passed since the enactment and implementation of law no. 26,870 “national drink wine” in Argentina, a pioneering legislation worldwide that seeks to disseminate the cultural characteristics inherent in the production, elaboration, and consumption of wine, as well as its deep-rooted traditions.
