Over-evaluation of total flavonoids in grape skin extracts containing sulphur dioxide

Abstract Sulphur dioxide (SO 2 ) proved to increase absorbance at 280 nm of grape skin and seed extracts containing it, diluted with ethanol–HCl to assess total flavonoids and anthocyanins in the same analysis. Additional absorbance at 280 nm was also observed in acetone:H 2 O extracts, if the acetone had not completely evaporated before the extracts were diluted with a solvent. Flavonoids were correctly quantified in the extracts when SO 2 or acetone were removed by solid-phase extraction with a C 18 RP as sorbent and methanol as eluting solvent.

Behaviour of some compounds with lmax at 280 nm in determination of total flavonoids of grape skin extracts made from a hydroalcoholic SO2-rich solvent.

This paper reports the results of a study on the ambiguous behaviour of substances with lmax at 280 nm in the determination of total flavonoids in whole grape skin extracts made from a hydroalcoholic SO2-rich solvent, apparently not eluted with methanol after absorption on a C18 cartridge employed for sample pre-concentration and SO2 removal. After rejecting the hypothesis that they were irreversibly absorbed on the C18 cartridge, it seemed that they reacted with other phenolics during passage through the C18 cartridge and were totally eluted with methanol in this new combined form. This new hypothesis seems very probable and is in accord with the more recent acquisition about the synthesis…

EVOLUTION OF ANTHOCYANIN PROFILES FROM GRAPE TO WINE

Aims: This study aimed at acquiring knowledge on the evolution of anthocyanins from grape to wine and the possibility of deducing the varietal origin of a wine from its anthocyanin profile. Methods and results: The anthocyanin “fingerprints”, or profiles, of a series of autochthonous Sicilian accessions and in the respective young wines were determined by HPLC-DAD in 2008. Data were evaluated by taking into account the development of percentages of side-ring disubstituted and trisubstituted anthocyanins, the ratio between acetylated and p-coumaroylated derivatives, and PCA results. From grape until the end of alcoholic fermentation, percentages of 3-glucosides of cyanidin, peonidin, delphin…

Evoluzione degli antociani e dei flavonoidi durante la maturazione di uve autoctone e internazionali nell’ambiente della Sicilia Occidentale.

In the 2006 vintage was followed the evolution of total anthocyanis and total flavonoids of skins as well as of monomer catechins, dimer procyanidins and total flavonoids of seeds of Nero d’Avola, Syrah, Merlot and Cabernet sauvignon berries, in environments of average hill of western Sicily, warm - arid during the maturation period (from 18 to 21 August the temperatures overcome 40 °C). The situation of stress, caused by the high temperatures registered in the above period, even if negatively influenced the synthesis of the anthocyanis, did not induce important variations in the profiles of these molecules that remained quite invariant especially in Nero d’Avola and Syrah. The consequences…

Glycosidic aroma compounds of some Portuguese grape cultivars

In order to evaluate the potential aroma of some Portuguese grapes, several glycosidically bound aroma compounds of ten grape varieties grown in Evora, Alentejo, Portugal, were released, identified and quantified using gas chromatography–mass spectrophotometry. White varieties were Arinto, Perrum, Rabo-de-Ovelha, Roupeiro and Antao Vaz. Red varieties were Trincadeira, Aragonez, Tinta Caiada, Moreto and Castelao. Grapes of Roupeiro and Trincadeira from five other vines in the Alentejo region were also studied. For each variety pulp and skin were analyzed separately. The compounds produced by enzymatic hydrolysis of glycoside precursors extracted from pulps and skins of these grapes were simi…

Modulation of geraniol metabolism during alcohol fermentation

J. Inst. Brew. 110(3), 213–219, 2004 Geraniol is the main monoterpenol present in Gewurtztraminer white grapes and in some red aromatic grapes from northern Italy. During fermentation, the geraniol concentration showed a dramatic drop and a small amount was transformed into linalool and -terpineol by an acid catalysed chemical reaction. Yeast are responsible for changing most of the geraniol to citronellol through enzymatic reactions. The final aroma of wine is due mainly to both the untransformed geraniol and the formed citronellol. In this study, competition between the geraniol-citronellol transformation and another metabolic process, in which according to our hypothesis sterol biosynthe…
