Stability of Individual Phenolic Compounds and Antioxidant Activity During Storage of a Red Wine Powder

TL;DR: In this article, the addition of maltodextrin DE 10 to red wine (Cabernet Sauvignon) followed by freeze-drying allowed to obtain a free-flowing (dealcoholized) wine powder (WP) having a phenolic concentration about 3.6 times higher than the original liquid red wine.

Antigenotoxic and Apoptotic Activity of Green Tea Polyphenol Extracts on Hexavalent Chromium-Induced DNA Damage in Peripheral Blood of CD-1 Mice: Analysis with Differential Acridine Orange/Ethidium Bromide Staining

TL;DR: The findings support the proposed protective effects of green tea polyphenols against the genotoxic damage induced by Cr (VI) and suggest that apoptosis could contribute to eliminate the DNA damaged cells induced by hexavalent chromium.
