coronary heart disease and high blood pressure. Since the phenolic compounds in wine combats these negative effects and originate from the grape itself the focus of this study was the total phenolic content in red and white grape juice; measured in gallic acid equivalents (GAE). This entire lab class found 105mg GAE per 100 milliliters of phenolic compounds in white grape juice and 226 mg GAE per 100 milliliters in red grape juice. The variance in the values is to be expected since different components

To the best of our knowledge‚ there is no report on the optimization of polyphenols and their radical scavenging activities from the edible leaves of A. gangetica. Therefore‚ the main aim of this study is to optimize extraction conditions such as EtOH concentration
