title: Impact of Melatonin Application in Winemaking on Phenolic Content, Tryptophan Metabolites, and Bioactivity of Red Wine
abstract: Global wine consumption drives the interest for high-quality wine with enhanced health benefits. Yeast-produced tryptophan metabolites, including melatonin, a potent antioxidant, emerged as promising agents for enhancing functional properties of food and beverages. This study represents the pioneering work addressing whether melatonin supplementation during vinification affects Moldova red wine quality. Total phenolic/flavonoid contents, DPPH, and FRAP assays were measured via spectrophotometry,
