The aim of the present study was to assess the effect of thermal processing and storage period on the antioxidant properties and color quality of strawberry, sweet and sour cherry low sugar jam. It was observed that thermal processing of fruits led to statistical significant alterations for all monitored parameters. Most important losses due to thermal processing were recorded for monomeric anthocyanins (92-93% from the value recorded in frozen fruits),

Merlot and Pinot Noir grapes (vintage 2005, winemaking center Recas) were examined during the course of aging in bottle for a period of two years. The parameters evaluated in our study included chromatic parameters (color intensity and tonality), color structure (color due to monomeric anthocyanins, polymeric pigments and copigmented anthocyanins), monomeric anthocyanins content, “chemical

The model practiced in different fields, like risk management, optimization and statistics and which implementation

Total antioxidant capacity was analyzed using FRAP method (Benzie&Strain, 1996) and total scavenging capacity by
