AB  - The phenolic composition and antioxidant activity of wine and fermented pomace (FP) from Cabernet Sauvignon grapes harvested at three ripening stages were evaluated using LC-MS/MS and spectrophotometric analyses. An investigation of grey mold’s (Botrytis cinerea) influence on wine phenolic content modulation was conducted as well. Finally, the influence of the plant’s ripening stage on the dynamics of the phenolic compounds extracted from wine and FP obtained from fully ripe grapes was evaluated. In this study, the content of catechin, epicatechin, quercetin, and p-coumaric, gallic, and syringic acids was analyzed. Wine and FP were obtained after extended maceration during the spontaneous and inoculated fermentation of fully ripe grapes. When comparing the wine and FP obtained from véraison, fully ripe, and overripe grapes, catechin was the most abundant in wine (40.13 ± 3.25 mg/L) and quercetin in FP (10.96 ± 0.14 mg/kg). A decrease in analyzed phenolic compounds was noticed in wine produced from grapes affected by Botrytis cinerea, and the highest depletion was found for quercetin. The use of a winemaking technique that involved differing maceration periods and inoculation using yeasts as well as spontaneous fermentation significantly modulated the phenolic content of derived wines and FP. The dynamics of the phenolic compounds extracted into wine, evaluated using a principal component analysis (PCA), highlighted contents of catechin and epicatechin. After a decrease in maceration, the PCA revealed a notable content of gallic and syringic acids, as well as quercetin, in samples of FP. This study offers a perspective for future research and the development of functional food with a high content of phenolic compounds originating from red grape products, such as wine and fermented pomace.

AB  - Considering the great potential of black soybean seed coat as a source of bioactive compounds, the objective of this study was to investigate the effect of anthocyanin-rich brine from the seed coat on functional properties of pickled baby corn, as well as its sensory properties. Given that the ears of sweet corn, popping corn and semi-flint corn were used for pickling in the pre-pollination phase, the effect of genotype and its growing stage on the chemical composition of Baby corn product was also taken into consideration. The brine of black soybean with a total anthocyanins content of 11,882.9 mg CGE/kg (cyanidin 3-glucoside equivalent) and an antioxidant capacity of 399.5 mmol Trolox Eq/kg determined by QUENCHER method had a positive impact on the functional potential of baby corn products. The content of total anthocyanins in the obtained products ranged from 748.6 to 881.2 mg CGE/kg, the predominant anthocyanin was cyanidin-3-glucoside (184.6 to 247.5 μg/g), while their colour was red. Compared to the commercial sample, baby corn products pickled in the enriched solution had a 26% to 46% and 17% to 26% higher content of total free phenolic compounds and antioxidant capacity, respectively. Contrarily, the control sample had higher sugar and fibre content. As established, pickled popping corn had the best sensory properties. © 2023 by the authors.

AB  - The brewing industry is facing several major changes in the recent period. The fast growth of the craft beer market and the addition of more and more new breweries have put pressure on breweries of all sizes. However, the higher-quality beer and sustainability of the production remain the ultimate goals of each beer producer. The new technologies that are developed and introduced in beer fermentation are trying to answer these requests even in the case of multiple shortening of beer production time. Beer fermentation is the most time-consuming stage in beer production. Therefore, in the competitive market like beer market is, the optimization of fermentation time without changing beer quality and sensory profile is a challenge for all the brewers. Immobilization of yeast cells is one of the approaches for fermentation time reduction as well as continuous process operation without the risk of yest cells washout from the fermenter. Immobilized yeast cells were successfully implemented in industrial scale in continuous beer maturation and the production of beer with low alcohol content. However, primary beer fermentation with immobilized yeast cells is still facing number of challenges in spite of the fact that different approaches were made. The major reason for this fact is linked to the changed conditions for immobilized yeast growth that cause changes in yeast morphology and physiology, and consequently altered aroma and flavor of beer produced. Some of the applied solutions gave good results on the laboratory and pilot scale experiments and have the potential to be spread on industrial scale. The aim of this study is to make a review of the existing knowledge of the methods for yeast immobilization, the carriers used in brewing, fermented design and to summarize their impacts on beer quality and sustainability of production.

AB  - INTRODUCTION:
The quest for foods that have a health-promoting impact began many years ago as a functional food. Nowadays, the varieties of food products and food ingredients are more about how they impact the health and well-being of consumers. Throughout history, herbs have been used to add taste and/or preservation to foods. The creative use of herbs can make food much more enjoyable, and not less healthy. Various herbal infusions can be added to beverage compositions to increase nutritional qualities and health benefits while maintaining a sensory and pleasant balance throughout the fortification process.
OBJECTIVES:
The primary objective of the study was to develop and manufacture specialty drinks made from fruit juices and extracts of medicinal and aromatic plants that had a high concentration of biologically active chemicals and a high antioxidant activity. 
Three types of soft drinks have been developed: those with potentially targeted physiologically beneficial effects on metabolism, cardiovascular system, and body resistance, as well as those with medicinal and aromatic herbs whose positive healing effects have already been documented in previous research.
METHOD / DESIGN:
Fruit juices were made by mechanically processing mature fruits, that have not been fermented and have been preserved only via physical methods. The plant material was dried in ambient conditions and ground shortly before extraction. A single percolation method was used to create liquid plant extracts. Extracts of medicinal and aromatic herbs were mixed in combinations with specific functional characteristics sensory acceptable and compatible with fruit blends. Total flavonoid content, polyphenols, and antioxidant capacity were determined. 
RESULTS:
Plant extracts and fruit juices were first classified in terms of total phenols, and their antioxidant activity was assessed using the FRAP and DPPH tests. The total antioxidant activity determined by the FRAP assay and the antioxidant activity determined by the DPPH test were correlated with the total phenol content. The number of phenolic compounds in tested herbal extracts and fruit juices differs significantly at the level of statistical significance of p 0.05. Given that antioxidant activity is 
directly proportional to phenolic component concentration, the FRAP and DPPH test both demonstrated statistically significant antioxidant activity.
CONCLUSIONS:
For the production of specialty beverages with targeted effects on accelerating metabolism, protection of the cardiovascular system, and strengthening the body’s resistance. While it is evident that a wide range of medicinal and aromatic plants may be utilized to improve the functional and sensory characteristics of beverages, the results are often not favorable. Blending 
various medicinal and aromatic herbs can provide a remedy, specialty beverage. The most essential issue is to select the best plant composition so that maximum functional characteristics may be balanced with pleasant sensory features.

AB  - Classified as Group 1 carcinogens aflatoxins (AFs) are of major concern for food safety and public health. Within the AFs group, aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) occurs at the highest levels in different food products and is considered as the most potent representative. A total of 463 samples of products susceptible to contamination with AFB1 and commonly consumed in Serbia were collected and analyzed. Consumption surveys were performed using a food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) and 24-h recall-based method. Monte Carlo simulation of 100,000 iterations was performed to estimate the intake of AFB1 through each food category, while a simple distribution approach was performed to estimate overall exposure of tested population groups. Risk characterization was performed by calculation of the Margin of Exposure (MOE) and by calculation of the number of possible hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cases. The highest exposure was observed in children with the mean overall estimated daily intake (EDI) in the range of 0.79–1.10 and 1.20–1.66 ng kg−1 bw day−1, followed by adolescents 0.56–0.81 and 0.94–1.32 ng kg−1 bw day−1, adult females 0.52–0.72 and 0.56–0.76 ng kg−1 bw day−1 and adult males with the mean overall EDI in the range of 0.39–0.56 and 0.47–0.66 ng kg−1 bw day−1 depending on consumption survey method and for the lower (LB) and upper bound (UB) scenario. MOE values that resulted from the mean values of the overall EDI of AFB1 were low, indicating high concern for all population groups. Based on obtained mean values of the overall EDI higher estimates of possible HCC cases caused by exposure to AFB1 were in the range of 0.01–0.02 cases/year/105 individuals, depending on the population group.

AB  - Pumpkin contains a high content of carotenoids, the majority of which are alpha-carotene, beta-carotene, alpha-cryptoxanthin, lutein/zeaxanthin and violaxanthin. The main beneficial effect of carotenoids derives from their antioxidant activity, i.e. protecting cells against the harmful effects of free radicals. The aim of this study was to determine the content of total pumpkin carotenoids during cooking, baking in oven and a microwave oven to examine how different heat treatments affect on the stability of the carotenoids. The standard spectrophotometric method was used to determine the content of total carotenoids, measuring the absorbance of extracted samples at a wavelength of 445 nm. Samples were extracted by petrolether. According to the obtained results, the highest content of carotenoids was in fresh pumpkin (172,93 μg/g dry matter), then in a pumpkin baked in the oven (66,63 μg/g dry matter), then in a pumpkin baked in microwave oven (65,97 μg/g dry matter) and the lowest content of total carotenoids was determined in cooked pumpkin (54,42 μg/g dry matter). These results indicated that different heat treatments were significantly affected on the stability of carotenoids in pumpkin. The higher losses were during cooking, while the losses of baking in the oven and microwave oven were similar.

AB  - Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine compositional differences between brown and white varieties of Agaricus bisporus during shelf life and to determine if the growing demand for the brown variety is scientifically justified. Design/methodology/approach Field research enabled analyzing consumers' perceptions on intrinsic, extrinsic and quality characteristics of mushrooms. A total of 275 consumers participated in the survey. Obtained results were used for comparing white and brown varieties of A. bisporus over a period of 22 days. Mushrooms were packed in air and in modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) at 4 degrees C. Samples were analyzed for their nutritional, antioxidative and microbiological characteristics. Findings Two weeks from harvest, white variety showed higher amount of essential nutrients, while during the third week, brown mushrooms were more nutritionally valuable. Brown variety had better antioxidative ability for all 22 days of storage. Aerobic plate count (APC) was as expected for the mushrooms. MAPs significantly lowered APC in both varieties. The number of Enterobacteriaceae was equal for both varieties at the beginning, but later on they developed much faster in the case of brown variety. Field research combined with specific analyses clarified that there are no nutritive or microbiological reasons for the precedence of brown variety over white. Research limitations/implications Sensory aspect of the quality of mushrooms was not analyzed. Originality/value Market trend toward brown variety was scientifically challenged.

AB  - This study deals with fatty acid profiles and mineral contents of traditional Serbian white cheeses in brine. Study covered four Serbian traditional white brined cheeses: Zlatar cheese, Sjenica cheese, Svrljig cheese and Homolje cheese prepared from raw cow and ovine milk. Fatty acid profiles of traditional cheeses were qualitatively and quantitatively different. The content of saturated fatty acids was in the range of 65.97 %-76.61 % (cow cheeses) and 69.68 %-74.52 % (ovine cheeses). Unsaturated fatty acids range of cow and ovine cheeses was 23.39 %-34.03 % and 25.48 %-30.08 %, respectively. Depending on the type of cheese, the ratio of polyunsaturated fatty acids was 1.66 %-11.03 %. The lowest content of saturated fatty acids was observed in Sjenica cow cheeses. Thus, this type of traditional cheeses had the most favorable health indices including atherogenicity index (1.89), thrombogenicity index (1.37) and desirable fatty acid ratio (46.34 %). Mineral content of traditional cheeses was also different. The ratio Ca:P was in the range of 0.70-1.33. The highest level of Ca, P, K, Mg, Zn, Cu and Cr was detected in Sjenica cheeses prepared from cow milk. The absence of Cd was observed in all cheeses.

AB  - Increasing interest in production of frequently consumed functional food products has focused the present study on implementation of microencapsulated Ganoderma mushroom and green tea bioactive compounds in beer production. Electrostatic extrusion assisted microencapsulation of green tea and Ganoderma extracts enabled production of particles ranging from 490 to 1000 mu m in size, with up to 75% of entrapped total polyphenols. Dried, powdered extracts, as well as microparticles encapsulating Ganoderma and green tea extracts that exhibited the best morphological properties and retarded release of polyphenols (alginate and alginate-chitosan coated, as well as chitosan coated pectin microbeads) were implemented in beer production. The addition of Ganoderma microbeads to pilsner beer did not augment its polyphenolic concentration (TPC), as opposed to the addition of green tea encapsulating microbeads to radler, while adding dried Ganoderma and spray dried green tea extracts enabled to increase the TPC for up to 3-fold higher values. Ganoderma dried extract-enriched pilsner beer and spray dried green tea extract-enriched radler were preferred in terms of sensory properties, due to the lowest bitterness intensity and most pronounced herbal aroma of the added adjuncts. Refrigerated storage of Ganoderma hydrogel microbeads-enriched pilsner beer revealed fluctuations of TPC, while green tea hydrogel microbeads-enriched radler exhibited better stability. The established methodology provides a procedure suitable for microencapsulate-enrichment of drink and food products, thus setting a reliable basis for future functional food production by microencapsulate implementation strategies.

AB  - The content of phenolic compounds (TPC) and glucans, as well as the effectiveness of antiproliferative and antioxidant activity of differently processed Ganoderma lucidum ethanol extracts were determined and compared. The content of glucans (total, alpha- and beta-) strongly depended on the extraction time and particle size, but only interaction of these parameters influenced the TPC. Gallic acid, quercetin, trans-cinnamic acid, kaempferol, hesperetin and naringenin were detected in extracts by HPLC-DAD. The most abundant phenols were hesperetin (1.875-3.222 mu g/g) and naringenin (1.235-2.856 mu g/g). The ethanol extracts exhibited noteworthy antioxidant activity, but the significant amount of phenolic compounds was strongly linked to polysaccharides, and hence reduced their antioxidant capacity. The results of the antiproliferative activity in vitro showed that the analyzed extracts were the most effective against HeLa cells. Significant correlations were observed between the antiproliferative effect and the TPC/glucan content of extracts.

AB  - BACKGROUND: /Aim. There are only several studies on the acute effect of alcoholic drinks intake on heart rhythm and this phenomenon is still not well understood. We wanted to examine whether linear and nonlinear measures of RR interval and QT interval series could quantify the effect of beer in healthy subjects. Methods. Eighteen young volunteers drank 500 mL of beer (21 g of ethanol). Electrocardiogram (ECG) recordings were taken in supine position: 20 minutes before (relaxation) and 60 minutes after drink intake. The RR interval series and the QT interval series were extracted from ECG and we calculated short-term (α1) and long-term (α2) scaling exponents and sample entropy (SampEn) for both series; low frequency (LF) and high frequency (HF) spectral components from RR interval series and QT variability (QTV). Blood pressure was measured every 10 minutes. Results. It was shown that beer induced changes in variability and correlation properties of these series. Immediate effect of beer intake was detected as a transient increase in the QT variability, heart rate and blood pressure. Delayed effects of beer were shortening of the RR and QT intervals and reduction of the HF spectral component. Beer intake also increased short-term scaling exponent (α1) of the RR time series and long-term scaling exponent (α2) of the QT time series. Conclusion. Our results suggest that acute effects of beer are reduced parasympathetic control of the heart and changed dynamic complexity of the ventricular repolarization.
AB  - Uvod/Cilj. Akutni efekat uzimanja alkoholnih pića na kardiovaskularne ritmove je fenomen koji još uvek nije dovoljno razjašnjen i u literaturi postoji svega nekoliko radova na tu temu. Cilj rada je bio da se ispita da li se linearnim i nelinearnim merama nizova RR i QT intervala može kvantifikovati akutni efekat male količine piva kod zdravih osoba. Metode. Osamnaest mladih zdravih muškaraca je pilo po 500 mL piva (21 g etanola). Elektrokardiogram (EKG) je beležen u ležećem položaju: 20 minuta pre (u relaksaciji) i 60 minuta neposredno posle uzimanja pića. Iz digitalizovanog zapisa EKG-a izdvojeni su nizovi RR i QT intervala. Iz oba niza smo izračunali kratkodometni (α1) i dugo-dometni skalirajući eksponent (α2), kao i entropiju uzorka (SampEn). Iz nizova RR intervala određene su spektralne komponente niskofrekventnih (LF) i visokofrekventnih (HF) opsega, a iz nizova QT intervala varijabilnost QT intervala (QTV). Krvni pritisak je bio meren svakih 10 minuta. Rezultati. Pokazali smo da pivo menja varijabilnost i korelacione osobine ovih nizova. Neposredni efekat uzimanja piva ogleda se u prolaznim povećanjima QT varijabilnosti, srčane frekvence i krvnog pritiska, a produženi u skraćenju dužine RR i QT intervala i smanjenju spektralne komponente HF. Uzimanje piva je takođe dovelo do porasta kratkodometnog skalirajućeg eksponenta (α1) RR niza i dugodometnog skalirajućeg eksponenta (α2) QT niza. Zaključak. Akutni efekat uzimanja piva je redukovana parasimpatička kontrola srca i izmenjena kompleksnost dinamike ventrikularne repolarizacije.

AB  - Beer may not be the oldest alcoholic drink, but it is definitely one of the most popular drinks today. It has gained its immense popularity through centuries, serving not only as a refreshing beverage but also as a physiologically important foodstuff. In recent decades, numerous researches including health aspects of beer have been carried out. The researches confirm that beer, in moderate amounts, has beneficial properties such as: reducing the risk of cardiovascular diseases, lowering of blood cholesterol levels, regulation of insulin, prevention of osteoporosis and senile dementia, and it also represents a source of vitamins, minerals and anti-oxidants. Mushrooms have always been known for their nutritional and medical characteristics. Ganoderma lucidum has been used in traditional medicine of the Far East for thousands of years; it was used in religious ceremonies and was a precious gift and inspiration for many artists, it was a part of many legends and today it represents a valuable product with a market of over 2.5 billion US $. It gained its fame in the treatment of various diseases and deservedly got the titles such as "Elixir of Life", "Food of the Gods" and "Mushroom of the universe". More than 400 different components have been discovered by chemical characterization of the fruitful body, spores and mycelia of Ganoderma lucidum. Polysaccharides and triterpenes represent dominant groups of compounds in the fruitful body of the mushroom, and they are followed by phenols, steroids, amino-acids, spiramycin, vitamins, nucleosides, fatty acids, nucleotides and trace elements. Current researches are focused on the sequencing of the genome of Ganoderma spp., separation of bioactive components and in vivo and in vitro researches. The main objective of the PhD thesis was to obtain a new product, special beer, with enhanced functional characteristics using the mushroom Ganoderma lucidum. A comprehensive analysis of relevant factors necessary for understanding the feasibility and applicability of such a solution has been carried out in the research. A detailed analysis of the way of the extraction of the mushroom was aimed to determine the optimal conditions for the separation of bioactive compounds...

Svoju ogromnu popularnost sticalo je vekovima, služeći ne samo kao osvežavajući napitak već i kao fiziološki značajna namirnica. Poslednjih decenija, vršena su brojna istraživanja koja su se bavila zdravstvenim aspektima piva. Istraživanja potvrđuju da pivo u umerenim količinama ima blagotvorna svojstva poput: smanjenja rizika od kardiovaskularnih bolesti, snižavanja holesterola u krvi, regulacije insulina, prevencije osteoporoze i demencije, a ujedno predstavlja izvor vitamina, minerala i antioksidanata. Gljive su od davnina poznate po svojim nutiritivnim i medicinskim svojstvima. Ganoderma lucidum korišćena je hiljadama godina u tradicionalnoj medicini dalekog istoka, korišćena je u verskim obredima, bila je dragocen poklon i inspiracija mnogim umetnicima, ispričana je u mnogim legendama, a danas predstavlja vredan proizvod sa tržištem od preko 2,5 milijardi US$. Svoju slavu stekla je u lečenju raznih bolesti i zasluženo je stekla nazive poput „Eliksir života”, „Hrana bogova” i „Gljiva univerzuma”. Hemijskom karakterizacijom plodonosnog tela, spora i micelije Ganoderma lucidum otkriveno je preko 400 različitih komponenti.

AB  - This paper is based on determining the level of the antioxidant activity of beer, to which sensory acceptable amounts of selected extracts of medicinal plants were added, with the aim of obtaining a beer with increased functional and new sensory features. For purposes of this study a commercial lager beer type Pils and extracts of herbal drugs: Melissae folium, Thymi herba, Juniperi fructus, Urticae radix and Lupuli strobuli, were used. Total phenols were analyzed by the method of Folin-Ciocalteu, and the antioxidant activity of samples was evaluated using FRAP and DPPH tests. Sensory evaluation of beer was conducted on 80 subjects, using a nine-level hedonic scale. The results showed that the content of total phenols was the highest in the beer which thyme, juniper and lemon balm were added to (384.22, 365.38 and 363.08 mg GAE/L, respectively), representing an increase of 37.09, 30.36 and 29.55%, respectively, compared to the commercial lager beer. Values of antioxidant activity were correlated with the content of total phenols. The extract of lemon balm blended in the best manner with the baseline, commercial lager beer in terms of sensory acceptability. The new beer, enriched with lemon balm, had a pleasant, appealing and harmonious flavor and aroma.

AB  - This study deals with proteolysis and total antioxidant capacity of proteins of white brined cheese prepared from overheated goat milk and ripened for fifty days. Proteolytic changes were reflected through the relatively low level of soluble nitrogen (50days ripened cheese had 15.32g/100g of water-soluble nitrogen, 8.1g/100g of TCA-soluble nitrogen and 2.69g/100g of PTA-SN), intensive proteolysis of (s2)-CN during initial 10days of ripening (up to 50.70% of initial content) and its much slower degradation through further 40days, slow but continual decrease of -CN content (up to 85.14% of residual content) and high level of proteolytic products tightly bounded into gel network. Total antioxidant capacity of water-soluble and water-insoluble fractions increased after cheese ripening. These findings could be useful for better understanding and control over the production of white brined goat cheese as highly valuable functional product.

AB  - Over the last decade, the market of special beers with improved healthy function and/or with new refreshing taste has significantly increased. One of the possible solutions enables mixing beer with bioactive components in grapes responsible for well-known health-promoting action of red wine. The effects of the addition of the Prokupac grape on the physicochemical properties and the fermentation kinetics of the grape beer were studied and the results were compared with a control lager beer. The effect of grape addition on the activity of yeast was also studied. Original extract, alcohol content, degree of fermentation, fermentation rate and yeast growth were significantly higher in beers with grapes as a consequence of higher concentration of simple sugars in grapes compared with pure wort. Based on the CIELab chromatic parameters the color of grape beer samples was yellow with certain proportion of redness, while the control beer was purely yellow. The increase in the concentration of grape mash affects the reduction of lightness and yellowness of beers, while the redness of samples was directly proportional with grape quantity. The phenolic content and antioxidant capacity of grape beers was remarkably higher compared to the control beer, which indicates that the grape beer is a better source of natural antioxidants than regular lager beer.
AB  - Poslednjih godina, tržište specijalnih vrsta piva koja se odlikuju poboljšanom zdravstvenom funkcijom i/ili novim osvežavajućim ukusom se značajno povećalo. Jedna od mogućnosti je i obogaćivanje piva sa bioaktivnim jedinjenjima grožđa koja su odgovorna za dobro poznato blagotvorno dejstvo crvenih vina na zdravlje. U radu je ispitivan uticaj dodatka grožđa sorte Prokupac na fizičkohemijske karakteristike i kinetiku fermentacije specijalnih piva sa dodatkom grožđa, pri čemu su dobijeni rezultati poređeni sa kontrolnim lager pivom. Uticaj dodatka grožđa na aktivnost kvasca je takođe ispitivan. Početni ekstrakt, sadržaj alkohola, stepen prevrelosti, brzina fermentacije i razmnožavanje kvasca je bilo značajno veće kod piva sa dodatkom grožđa, zbog većeg sadržaja prostih šećera u grožđu u poređenju sa čistom sladovinom. Prema CIELab parametrima boje, boja piva sa dodatkom grožđa je bila žuta sa određenim udelom crvene, dok je kontrolno pivo bilo čiste žute boje. Povećanjem udela grožđa boja piva postaje tamnija i sa manjim udelom žute boje, dok je udeo crvene boje direktno proporcionalan sadržaju grožđa. Sadržaj fenolnih jedinjenja i antioksidativni kapacitet piva sa dodatkom grožđa je bio značajno veći u odnosu na kontrolno pivo, što znači da je pivo sa grožđem bolji izvor prirodnih antioksidanasa nego komercijalno lager pivo.

AB  - In the Far East countries medicinal fungi Ganoderma lucidum has been traditionally used as an important supplement to different alcoholic beverages, because of its bitter taste and medical effects. In this paper, it was investigated the effect of extraction parameters, extraction time and concentration of fungi Ganoderma lucidum, on the phenolic compounds content as well as antioxidant characteristics of special grape brandies. For determination of samples antioxidant capacity FRAP (Ferric ion Reducing Antioxidant Power), DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) and TEAC (Trolox Equivalent Antioxidant Capacity) methods were used. In this paper we used three different concentration of fungus in the amount of 1, 2.5 and 4% and extraction was carried out for three different time periods: 7, 21 and 60 days. The addition of fungi increased the content of phenolic compounds and antioxidant capacity of all samples. With increasing the concentration of added fungi the phenolic compounds content were higher, but the extraction time must be prolonged in order to complete extraction of phenolic compounds. The highest content of total polyphenols had a sample with 4 % of G. lucidum extracted for 60 days (141.17 mg/L GAE). Antioxidant capacity for a given sample determined by DPPH, FRAP and TEAC methods were 0.492 mM TE, 1.580 FRAP units and 3.987 mM TE, respectively.
AB  - U zemljama dalekog Istoka medicinska gljiva Ganodrema lucidum se tradicionalno koristi kao važan dodatak raznim alkoholnim pićima zbog svog gorkog ukusa i lekovitog dejstva.

Za određivanje antioksidativne aktivnosti uzoraka korišćene su metode FRAP (Ferric ion Reducing Antioxidant Power), DPPH (1,1-difenil-2-pikrilhidrazil) i TEAC (Trolox Equivalent Antioxidant Capacity). U radu su korišćene koncentracije gljive od 1, 2.5 i 4 %, koje su estrahovane u različitim vremenskim periodima od 7, 21 i 60 dana. Dodatkom gljive kod svih uzoraka sadržaj fenolnih jedinjenja i antioksidativni kapacitet su se povećavali. Sa povećanjem koncentracije dodate gljive povećava se sadržaj fenolnih jedinjenja, ali vreme ekstrakcije se mora prolongirati, da bi ekstrakcija fenolnih jedinjenja bila kompletna. Najveći sadržaj ukupnih fenolnih jedinjenja imao je uzorak sa 4% G.lucidum ekstrahovane tokom 60 dana (141.17 mg/L GAE), a antioksidativni kapacitet za dati uzorak određivan DPPH, FRAP i TEAC metodoma iznosio je 0.492 mM TE, 1.580 FRAP jedinica i 3.987 mM TE, respektivno.

AB  - Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) is the world's second largest vegetable crop after the potato and a major source of lycopene. Lycopene is a red carotenoid and an efficient free radical scavenger, which presence in the diet positively correlates with reduced risk of chronic diseases. Although tomatoes are usually used as a salad vegetable, more than 80 % of tomatoes consumption comes from processed products such as ketchup, tomato juice, pickled tomatoes, sauces etc. Jam is another possibility of tomato processing. Tomato jam was produced in an open 120 liters oil jacketed stainless steel kettle. The proportion of sugar to fruit was 1:2.5, while the final concentration was 65°Brix (Bx). Lycopene content was estimated spectophotometrically at 503 nm and concentration was calculated using molar extinction coefficient of 17.2 × 104 M-1cm-1. An examination of the antioxidant capacity of samples was performed using DPPH assay. Obtained results indicate that lycopene content of tomato jam was slightly lower compared to fresh ones (79.66 mg/kg in fresh tomatoes and 75.54 mg/kg in tomato jam), while antioxidant capacity has increased during processing (0.335 and 1.195 mM Trolox equivalents per kilogram of samples for fresh tomatoes and tomato jam, respectively). Moreover, heat processing of tomatoes could result in increased bioavailability of lycopene. Based on the results, it may be concluded that tomato jam can be a high-quality product which can be a desirable component of healthy diet.

AB  - Over the last decades, there has been an increased interest in studying the potential health benefits of moderate wine and beer consumption. Studies indicate that wine and beer consumed moderately can have a very favorable effect on the overall health condition. The effect can be explained by a high content of antioxidants and other biologically active compounds, particularly polyphenols, which can prevent the occurrence of some diseases, especially cardiovascular disease. In this research, a special type of beer, the grape beer, was produced using three different grape varieties Prokupac, Pinot Noir and Cabernet Sauvignon. Beer samples were fermented using conventional brewer's wort and 20 % w/w and 30 % w/w of crushed grape. The fermentation was carried out using two different yeasts: Saccharomyces pastorianus industrial strain obtained from one of the Serbian breweries and wine yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae K1-V1116. The influence of grape variety, the wort-to-grape ratio and yeast strains on the polyphenol content was examined. The total polyphenol content was determined according to the official EBC (European Brewery Convention) spectrophotometric method. The results suggested that grape varieties, their contents, as well as yeast strains had a very significant influence on the total polyphenol content of the obtained beer. The polyphenol content rang in samples went from 95.94 mg/L in beer without grape fermented by brewing yeast and up to 754.40 mg/L in beer with 30 % of Cabernet Sauvignon grape fermented by wine yeast.

AB  - Wines and beers are a rich source of different compounds that show beneficial effects to the human body and their consummation in reasonable amounts can improve health. Among them, the most important are phenolic compounds (nonflavonoids, flavonoids, tannins), which possess antioxidative properties and could be responsible for prevention of many diseases. The aim of this study was to determine the content of total flavonoids, monomeric and total anthocyanins in samples of wines from different grape varieties produced in Serbia and beers produced with the addition of grapes. Analysis was performed on 14 samples including 5 red wines made from grape varieties from Serbia, one regular beer, and 7 beer samples enriched with different grape varieties and percentage of grape. Monomeric and total anthocyanins were determined spectrofotometrically by the pH differential method, while the total flavonoid content was determined according to the colorimetric Folin-Ciocalteu method after precipitation with formaldehyde. Anthocyanins were quantified in all analyzed samples, except in regular beer. The highest values were found in wines made from variety Prokupac (270,80 mg/l and 388,79 mg/l malvidine-3-glucoside equivalents, for monomeric and total anthocyanins, respectively). Flavonoids were present in all analyzed samples. Wine samples showed higher content of flavonoids (the highest in Merlot wine) than beer and drinks from beer and grapes. The content of anthocyanins and flavonoids in beer samples enriched with grapes increased with the increase of added amount of grapes. Obtained results showed that relatively high concentrations of flavonoids and anthocyanins are present in wines produced in Serbia. Also, addition of grape in beer increased content of these beneficial phenolic compounds, which can be important factor for quality of a new developed product.

AB  - In the two past decades, there has been a great deal of research on polyphenol compounds and their antioxidant properties. Raspberry as a fruit species is widely grown in Serbia and is well known in the world for its quality. Being very rich in polyphenol compounds, raspberry is a great source of components of excessive biological value. The objective of this study was to investigate influence of temperature, sulfur-dioxide and selected yeast on fermentation of raspberry pulp and the total polyphenol content of raspberry wine. The pulp of Meeker, one of the most abundant varieties of raspberry (Rubus idaeus) in Serbia, was fermented at 15°C and 22°C with and without selected yeast cells, and with and without addition of sulfurdioxide. The total polyphenol content was determined every 24 hours, according to the Folin Ciocalteau method and results were expressed in mg/L gallic acid equivalents (mg GAE/L). The obtained results indicate that fermentation temperature and addition of sulfur-dioxide significantly influence the extraction of phenolic compounds from raspberry pulp, while the addition of selected yeast cells has no influence. Immediately before fermentation, total polyphenol content in the sample was 1415,7 mg GAE/L. After 72 hours of fermentation, the sample fermented at 15°C with addition of sulfur-dioxide and without selected yeast cells reached its maximum value of 2191 mg GAE/L, whereas the same sample fermented at 22°C reached the value of 2820 mg GAE/L. Other samples had lower values then these two. After 96 and 120 hours of fermentation, in all samples total polyphenol content was slightly lower then after 72 hours.

AB  - Plum brandy is traditional Serbian alcoholic beverage, made by distillation of fermented plum variety Prunus domestica. Distillate is colorless and has characteristic fruit aroma, which originates from the component of the inner layer of the plum skin. According to the Serbian tradition, plum brandy is sometimes mixed with different medicinal herbs, and these products are treated as forms of herbal medicine. Medicinal herbs are rich source of polyphenols and other valuable compounds, which can contribute to the functional properties of brandies. These products are usually produced from a large number of herbs and spices, which, also, change the aroma complex and contribute to the color. In this study, it was investigated the effects of two herbal compositions which were consisted of 44 plants with different ratio of aromatic and bitter herbs on sensory characteristics and antioxidant capacity of herbal brandies. Sensory assessment of samples was performed by using modified Buxbaum model of positive ranking. The total phenolic content of samples was determined according to the Folin-Ciocalteu spectrophotometric method. The antioxidant capacity (ATC) was tested by using two methods: 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and ferric reducing ability of plasma (FRAP). The total sensory quality of samples was 17.85 and 17.95, which were very good scores. The total phenolic content of samples was 145.56 and 130 mg/L gallic acid equivalents, while the antioxidant capacity was 0.69 and 0.61 mM Trolox according to DPPH assay, and 2.08 and 1.75 FRAP units according to FRAP method. The obtained results suggested that higher content of the bitter herb significantly influenced the antioxidant capacity and not significantly affected the sensory profile of special brandy. Based on sensory assessments, the sensory properties of these special brandies were completely acceptable for the assessors.

AB  - ljivovica and Prepeenica are traditional Serbian distillated beverages made from varieties of plum, of the genus Prunus. The ageing in wooden casks not only improves the sensory characteristics, but also changes the content of total polyphenols and contributes to the other important health properties, such as the increase of their antioxidant capacity. In this study, home-made brandy (ljivovica and Prepeenica) samples were used, which matured in casks during the time period from 10 to 47 years. The aim of this investigation was to examine the influence of the ageing parameters (time period and type of wooden casks) and raw material (plum cultivars) on the total polyphenol content, amount of certain phenol compounds, sensory properties, colour and antioxidant properties in matured brandies. The individual phenol components were determinated using HPLC system equipped with diode array detector, while the total phenol content and antioxidant activity was estimated using spectrophotometric methods (Folin-Ciocalteu, DPPH, FRAP and TEAC). Total polyphenol content (TPC) of aged Prepeenica samples was ranged from 230.26 to 890.26 mg/L gallic acid equivalents (GAE mg/L), whereas the TPC of ljivovica sample was 110.38 mg/L. Antioxidant capacity of analysed Prepeenica samples and ljivovica sample was in strong correlation with TPC. Total sensory score of all samples was very high and varied between 18.2 and 19.8. The obtained results have shown that the benefit of longer maturation on sensory characteristics is well recognized, but the improvement has some limitation.

AB  - Ganoderma lucidum has been used for more than 2000 years in traditional Chinese medicine. It is not edible mushroom since its fruiting bodies are tough and corky, but the extract of this mushroom can be used as additives for food or drinks. The reason for great attention of this mushroom is due to the wide variety of its bioactive compounds, such as triterpenes, polysaccharides (β-glucans), proteins, steroids etc. In the production of beverages, very important fact is that the Ganoderma is a rich source of bitter triterpenoids and bioactive polysaccharides. Brandy is an alcoholic beverage with a very long tradition in Serbia and it is produced by distillation of fermented fruits. Brandy can be mixed with different medicinal herbs, and according to Serbian tradition, these products are treated as forms of folk medicine. In this study, we investigated the sensory properties of special type of grape brandy and wine distillate, which were obtained by maceration of various amounts (0.5-2.5%) of fruit bodies of Ganoderma lucidum. The origin of strain of G. lucidum was from wild Bojčinska forest near Belgrade. Sensory characteristics of the brandies were determined using modified Bux-baum model of positive ranking (20 score max.). The samples of brandies were subject for sensory evaluation by a panel comprising 5 qualified testers. The results of the evaluation showed that total sensory quality of samples were between 16.7 and 17.85, which we consider as very good score. The best rated was the sample of grape brandy with 2.5% G. lucidum. The obtained results suggest that sensory properties of these special brandies were completely acceptable for the tasters. Supplementation of this mushroom with different kind of brandy can improve the sensory characteristics and health properties of spirit drinks.

AB  - Since the beginning of the 1990s, a numerous epidemiological studies have been conducted to determine the correlation between consumption of food and beverages rich in phenolic compounds and reduction of the risk of degenerative diseases. The first positive results were obtained by examining the influence of moderate wine intake on the cardiovascular system. After that, a lot of studies investigated the impact of other beverages to the general health condition. The general conclusion is that the positive effects of beverages are strongly correlated with the total phenolic content. Red wines contain a greater amount of antioxidants compared with white wines and beers, and therefore show a significantly higher antioxidant capacity. However, besides the total content of antioxidants in beverages, their bioavailability, i.e., the ability of the organism to adopt them is also important. Unlike wine, beer polyphenols are easily adoptable, so, by consuming the same amount of alcohol, two drinks almost equally contribute to increasing the antioxidant potential of plasma. Due to the complexity of the products and a numerous of modes of antioxidant action, it is necessary to apply various methods to determine the antioxidant properties of these beverages.
AB  - Od početka 1990-ih godina, brojne epidemiološke studije su vođene u cilju utvrđivanja korelacije između konzimiranja hrane i pića bogatih fenolnim jedinjenjima i smanjenja rizika od pojave degenerativnih oboljenja. Prvi pozitivni rezultati dobijeni su ispitivanjem uticaja umerenog konzumiranja vina na kardiovaskularni sistem, nakon čega su intenzivirana istraživanja uticaja i drugih pića na opšte zdravstveno stanje. Izveden je opšti zaključak da je pozitivno delovanje pića u korelaciji sa sadržajem polifenolnih jedinjenja. Crvena vina sadrže daleko veću količinu antioksidanasa u poređenju sa belim vinima i pivom, i shodno tome pokazuju i značajno veći antioksidativni kapacitet. Međutim, pored ukupnog sadržaja antioksidanasa u pićima, veoma važna je i njihova iskoristljivost, odnosno, mogućnost organizma da ih usvoji. Za razliku od vina, polifenoli piva su lako usvojivi, tako da, pri istom unosu alkohola, oba pića skoro u jednakoj meri doprinose povećanju antioksidativnog potencijala plazme. Usled kompleksnosti sastava proizvoda i velikog broja meha­nizama delovanja antioksidanasa, potrebno je primeniti više različitih metoda pri utvrđivanju antioksidativnih karakteristika ovih pića.
