Project Type: Specific Cooperative Agreement

Start Date: Sep 20, 2006
End Date: Sep 30, 2008

Objective:
1. Determine and modify appropriate analytical methods for monitoring polyphenolics in must and wine. 2. Determine and monitor major chemical components of wine. 3. Optimize management practices to produce wine to specifications.

Approach:
We will examine the major chemical components in wines treated under various conditions. We will use simple spectrophotometric methods in addition to more complex analytical methods, to better understand qualitative and quantitative changes. Documents SCA with Oregon State University.
