Grape pomace and seeds, good source of functional compounds such as polyphenols, are waste by-products generated during wine making. Extraction is a very important step for later use of polyphenols. Herein we investigated the effects of conventional (CSE) and non-conventional extraction methods (subcritical water extraction (SWE) and pressurized ethanol extraction (PEE) on extraction yield, total phenolic content (TPC) and antioxidant capacity (AC) of Black Borgoña (Vitis labrusca L.) grape, pomace and seeds. Chemical composition showed the greatest amount of protein and lipids in pomace and seeds. Calcium was present in a high concentration in seeds (137.24 mg/100 g DM). PEE samples retained the highest TPC among all the extraction methods for grape, pomace and seeds with 21.42 ± 0.43, 54.36 ± 3.37 and 56.5 ± 3.81 mg GAE/g DM, respectively. The highest AC was determined by FRAP in seeds, 431.16 ± 37.71 µmol TE/g DM, followed by 329.04 ± 13.3 µmol TE/g DM in pomace when PEE was used. Significant correlations between antioxidant capacity and total phenolics were observed for all samples. This study demonstrated that non-conventional green method PEE is an efficient method to achieve the highest TPC and AC of Black Borgoña grape, pomace and seeds.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
