Abstract
The by-products of processed grape (grape seeds and grape peels) can be recovered for further food applications. Extracts of grape by-products were obtained with solvents of different polarity (aqueous acetone, methanol and ethanol) and assayed for their total phenolic content and antioxidant activity. The high amount of total phenols was found in grape seeds. Higher yields of phenolic antioxidants were recovered with acetone. The recovery of phenolic antioxidants from the peels and seeds of processed grape could be a valuable alternative to traditional disposal routes (including landfill), in particular for cooking grape varieties. The recycling process could enhance the growth of traditional culinary markets thanks to the new business opportunities for the peel-derived and seed-derived materials.
