Abstract
The fractionation of a grape skin extract by multilayer countercurrent chromatography coupled with step gradient elution allowed the preparation of a fraction almost devoid of free anthocyanins. This fraction appeared to be almost exclusively polymeric, as judged by liquid chromatographic-mass spectrometric (LC-MS) analysis, color-bleaching tests with sulfur dioxide, and thiolysis. Electrospray mass spectrometric analysis indicated that the pigmented material in this fraction was chiefly composed of direct condensation products of anthocyanin extending up to trimers. With regard to their linkages, the anthocyanin units in the oligomers were possibly linked by either an A-type (by both carbon-carbon and ether bonds) or B-type (by carbon-carbon bond) linkage, like proanthocyanidins. The terminal anthocyanin unit of the oligomers is consistently in the flavylium form but the extension units are in the flavan form for the A-type oligomers and in the flavene form for the B-type oligomers. Although their linkages still need to be defined rigorously, this is the first mass spectrometric evidence confirming the existence of anthocyanin oligomers in the grape skin extract.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
