Maceration is defined as the softening and breaking down of skin resulting from prolonged exposure to moisture. It was first described by Jean-Martin Charcot in 1877. [1] [2] Maceration is caused by excessive amounts of fluid remaining in contact with the skin or the surface of a wound for extended periods.
Maceration continues during the fermentation period, and can last well past the point when the yeast has converted all sugars into alcohol. The process itself is a slow one with compounds such as the anthocyanins needing to pass through the cell membrane of the skins to come into contact with the wine.
Maceration, in chemistry, the preparation of an extract by solvent extraction; Maceration, in biology, the mechanical breakdown of ingested food into chyme; Skin maceration, in dermatology, the softening and whitening of skin that is kept constantly wet; Maceration, in poultry farming, a method of chick culling
Atrophy refers to a loss of skin, and can be epidermal, dermal, or subcutaneous. [30] With epidermal atrophy, the skin appears thin, translucent, and wrinkled. [29] Dermal or subcutaneous atrophy is represented by depression of the skin. [29] Maceration: softening and turning white of the skin due to being consistently wet.
The most common cause of periwound issues is excessive moisture present in the area surrounding the wound. Exudate from heavily draining wounds causes irritation of the periwound that may lead to maceration, excoriation, and otherwise compromise skin integrity.
2. Silver. Taking a page out of Nicole Kidman’s book, silver is a must-have choice for fair skin. Silver has a reflective, subtle shine that enhances the natural brightness of fair skin.
The skins contain color pigment, phenols and tannins that would normally be considered undesirable for white wines, while for red wines skin contact and maceration is a vital part of the winemaking process that gives red wine its color, flavor, and texture. [3] Orange wines tend to be natural (a.k.a. minimal intervention) wines.
The metal clamps on your slow cooker are designed for portability, not cooking. Using them during cooking can cause steam to build up and your device may crack.
