Premature aging of red wines: a matter of fatty acid oxidation? A review on lipid‐derived molecular markers and their possible precursors

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 105, Issue 15, Page 8315-8329, December 2025.
Abstract Premature aging of red wines (PremOx) is an emerging defect in red wines, related to the onset of cooked fruit, plum and dried figs nuances, as well as the loss of aging potential.

Green synthesis of silver nanoparticles by Ricinus communis var. carmencita leaf extract and its antibacterial study

open access: yes, 2017
In this study, we report synthesis of silver nanoparticles (RcAgNPs) from silver nitrate solution using methanolic leaf extract of Ricinus communis var. carmencita. The polyphenols present in the leaves reduce Ag++ ions to Ag0 followed by a color change.
