ABSTRACT

Definition of the total phenol type antioxidant content and activity of compounds with respect to oxygen and its radicals in various alcohol drinks by two electrochemical methods.

The total content of phenol type antioxidants (AO) and their activity with respect to oxygen and its radicals are measured by two operative electrochemical methods: ammetric and voltammetric in samples more than 100 various alcohol drinks. Results of measurements show good (80-90%) correlation of these methods for dry red and white wines. Use of indicated methods allows revealing forged alcoholic production.
