Sažetak
This study was aimed to investigate the influence of solvent (water and ethanol in concentration: 50%, 70%, 96%) and extraction temperature (25°C-80°C) on polyphenols extraction of grape seed (Vitis vinifera L. cv. ˝Frankovka˝) cultivated in Eastern Croatia. The best results were reached using 50% ethanol at 80°C. The most abundant individual polyphenolic compound was catechin which makes the average of 45.11% of the total phenolic content followed by epicatechin (34.45%), procyanidin B2 (12.90%), gallic acid (5.34%), gallocatechin (1.58%), epicatechin gallate (1.01%). The antioxidant activity of extracts was determined by DPPH-method and it was highly dependent on extraction solvent and temperature. The total proanthocyanidins content of extract had the highest positive correlation (r = 0.994) with antioxidant activity, which indicated that these compounds might be the most important antioxidant in examined grape seed extracts. Relationship between phenolic content and colour of extracts was observed.
