Red wine consumption, coronary calcification, and long-term clinical evolution

Braz. j. med. biol. res; 51 (12), 2018
Coronary artery calcification (CAC) is associated with atherosclerotic complications. However, elevated CAC may not always imply a worse prognosis. Herein, we report the clinical evolution of long-term red wine (RW) drinkers in relation to CAC. We followed 200 healthy male habitual RW drinkers and compar...

Comparison between red wine and isolated trans-resveratrol in the prevention and regression of atherosclerosis in LDLr (-/-) mice

Moderate consumption of red wine has been widely associated with reduced cardiovascular risk, mainly due to its composition in phenolic compounds with antioxidant activity, such as trans-resveratrol. Our aim was to compare the effect of red wine vs trans-resveratrol consumption on the prevention and regr...

ABSTRACT An overview is provided of the status of research at the frontiers of investigation of the chemistry and photochemistry of two classes of natural plant pigments, the anthocyanins and the betalains, as well as of the pyranoanthocyanin pigments formed from anthocyanins during the maturation of red...

Avaliação físico-química e sensorial de vinho de jabuticaba submetido a tratamento de radiação gama
Physical-chemical and sensorial evaluation of jaboticaba wine subjected to gamma radiation treatment

Hig. aliment; 31 (274/275), 2017
A jabuticaba é uma fruta tropical, tipicamente brasileira, sendo originária da região centro-sul. Popularmente apreciada por suas características sensoriais in natura, mas também pela utilização em produtos processados como geleias, licores e bebidas fermentadas (SASSO; CITADIN; DANNER, 2010).

Effect of different presentations of resveratrol on cell proliferation and epitelial thickness of the oral mucosa of wistar rats

Clin. biomed. res; 37 (3), 2017
Introduction: Grape is one of the most important fruit crops across the world and can be consumed in different ways. There has been a growing interest in the role of antioxidants such as resveratrol, which can be found in grape skin, in oral and dental tissues. Thus, the objective of this study was to an...

Translucency and color stability of resin composite and dental adhesives as modeling liquids - A one-year evaluation

Abstract The aim of this study is to evaluate the influence of modeling liquids on the translucency and color shade of resin composites (RCs) after one year of storage. RC specimens were prepared using either a conventional insertion technique (control; without modeling liquid) or a restorative dental mo...

Comparative proteome analysis of Brettanomyces bruxellensisunder hydroxycinnamic acid growth

Electron. j. biotechnol; 19 (5), 2016
Background: Brettanomyces bruxellensis is an important spoilage yeast in the winemaking process. The capacity of this yeast to generate an undesired off-flavor constitutes a significant loss in the Chilean wine industry. Results: The proteomic profile of B. bruxellensis in the presence of p-coumaric acid...

ABCD (São Paulo, Impr.); 29 (3), 2016
ABSTRACT Background: The health benefits associated with moderate wine consumption, as with ethanol and phenolic compounds, include different mechanisms still little understandable. Aim: Evaluate glycemic and weight variations, and the deposit of triglycerides, cholesterol and liver glycogen with red ...

Bacteria isolated from Korean black raspberry vinegar with low biogenic amine production in wine

Braz. j. microbiol; 47 (2), 2016
Abstract A high concentration of histamine, one of the biogenic amines (BAs) usually found in fermented foods, can cause undesirable physiological side effects in sensitive humans. The objective of this study is to isolate indigenous Acetobacter strains from naturally fermented Bokbunja vinegar in Korea ...
