Solubility of Quercetin in Wines
2022
Quercetin solubility at 18 °C and 0 °C was determined in an hydroalcoholic buffer solution with pH 3.20 and in four Italian wines to study the formation of quercetin precipitate mechanism in wines. The wines selected were Barbera 2018 for the typically high content in bisulfite bleachable pigments, red Cirò 2014, for its typically high content of flavonoids, Sangiovese 2014, for the presence of quercetin deposits in bottle, and white Cirò 2018, for the absence of red pigments. All the samples were spiked with 30 mg/L quercetin. The amount of quercetin solubilized at 18 °C and 0 °C in the hydroalcoholic buffer was much lower than in wines, while that solubilised in Barbera was much higher co…
Design d'un iprodione-MIP (molecularly imprinted polymer) : application à la pré-concentration des fongicides dans le vin
2014
The aim of this study was the synthesis of a MIP (molecularly imprinted polymer) specific for a fungicide that is found in the majority of the french wine: iprodione. The challenge for extracting iprodione from wine medium was that the hydoralcoholic solution is a dipolar solvent, whereas the interaction between the MIP and iprodione is based on dipolar interactions. The first extraction study of iprodione was made on a MIP synthesized by bulk polymerization using methacrylamide and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA). The MIP was found to be more efficient than the NIP (non-imprinted polymer) in hydroalcoholic solutions which demonstrates that the molecular imprinting was successful. Th…
Sustainable sparkling base wines obtained from waste matrices of the wine and honey supply chain
2019
The present work was performed to improve the general quality characteristics of sparkling wines produced in Southern Italy (Sicily region) as well as the sustainability of the production process. To this purpose, two novel approaches were applied during experimental winemaking: (i), the use of raceme grapes (formed from the secondary shoots) of Grillo cultivar to improve the chemical characteristics of sparkling base wine; (ii), the technological selection of potential fructophilic Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains isolated from honey by-product to improve the alcoholic fermentations and the organoleptic features of bottled wines. The racemes are typical of Grillo cugrapes and mature 20 day…
Immobilised Cell Technology in Winery and Fruit Wine Production
2006
Winemaking is largely concerned with the progress of biotechnology and especially with the use of high cell density reactors. Entrapment is the most widely method to immobilise cells; several matrix can be used (alginate, carrageenan, agar) with different geometry (beads, fibres, plates). Alcoholic fermentation of wine, malolactic fermentation, bottle fermentation known as the "Methode champenoise" and sparkling wines are among the industrial applications. Whereas prospects for this technology appear encouraging, further research is needed to optimise reaction variables, improve the long-term stability of the reactors, and understand more about secondary metabolite production by yeasts unde…
Effect of Production Phase on Bottle-Fermented Sparkling Wine Quality
2015
This review analyzes bottle-fermented sparkling wine research at each stage of production by evaluating existing knowledge to identify areas that require future investigation. With the growing importance of enological investigation being focused on the needs of the wine production industry, this review examines current research at each stage of bottle-fermented sparkling wine production. Production phases analyzed in this review include pressing, juice adjustments, malolactic fermentation (MLF), stabilization, clarification, tirage, lees aging, disgorging, and dosage. The aim of this review is to identify enological factors that affect bottle-fermented sparkling wine quality, predominantly …
Theme 4: Immobilized Cell Technology in Wine Production
1994
AbstractIn spite of its traditional nature, wine making is largely concerned with the progress of biotechnology. High cell density reactors have potential for enology: improved performance of alcoholic and malolactic fermentations, smaller scale fermentation facilities, adaptation to continuous processes. Among the immobilization techniques, cell entrapment in alginate beads seems to be an impressive one. Alcoholic fermentation of wine, malolactic fermentation, bottle fermentation known as “Methode champenoise” and sparkling wine are among the industrial applications. Knowledge of kinetics and physiology in microorganisms in heterogeneous media has expanded in the last few years. The use of…
Immobilisation of yeasts on oak chips or cellulose powder for use in bottle-fermented sparkling wine
2019
[EN] Sparkling wine production comprises two successive fermentations performed by Sacharomyces cerevisiae strains. This research aimed to: develop yeast immobilisation processes on two wine-compatible supports; study the effects of yeast type (IOC 18-2007 and 55A) and the immobilisation support type (oak chips and cellulose powder) on the fermentation kinetics, the deposition rate of lees and the volatile composition of the finished sparkling wine; compare the fermentation parameters of the wines inoculated with immobilised or non-immobilised cells. Proper immobilisation of yeast on oak chips and cellulose powder was demonstrated by electron microscopy. Total sugar consumption occurred in …
Determination of macrolide antibiotics in meat and fish using pressurized liquid extraction and liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry
2008
We developed a method for determining the quantities of seven macrolide antibiotics in meat and fish by using pressurized liquid extraction (PLE) and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry with electrospray ionization (LC-(ESI)MS). The PLE was optimized with regard to solvents, temperature, pressure, extraction time and number of cycles. The optimum conditions were: methanol as the extraction solvent; a temperature of 80 degrees C; a pressure of 1500psi; an extraction time of 15min; 2 cycles; a flush volume of 150% and a purge time of 300s. All recoveries for macrolide antibiotics were over 77% at 200mug/kg, except for erythromycin, which was 58%. The repeatability and reproducibility on d…
Direct infusion mass spectrometry as a fingerprint of protein-binding media used in works of art
2005
A direct infusion mass spectrometry method for the characterization of proteinaceous glues from binding media used in pictorial works of art prior to conservation or restoration treatment is proposed. Amino acids are released by acid hydrolysis and dissolved in a mixture of acidic water and ethanol. This mixture is directly infused into a mass spectrometer without any derivatization. The mass spectrometer is operated in positive ion electrospray mode (ESI-MS) to yield [M+H]+ ions for the amino acids. Relative amounts of each amino acid are calculated for each protein (beef and porcine gelatines, albumin, casein and egg). The analyzed proteins were satisfactorily distinguished. The method is…
Guarana seed extracts as a useful strategy to extend the shelf life of pork patties: UHPLC-ESI/QTOF phenolic profile and impact on microbial inactiva…
2018
Abstract The antioxidant and antimicrobial effects of guarana seed extracts (GSE) added to pork patties were evaluated for 18 days storage at 2 ± 1 °C. Five treatments were prepared: i) without natural antioxidant [control (negative control)], ii) with BHT at 200 mg/kg (positive control), and iii) with three different concentrations: 250 mg/kg (guarana seed low dose-GSL), 500 mg/kg (guarana seed medium dose-GSM) and 1000 mg/kg (guarana seed high dose-GSH) of guarana extracts, respectively. The pH, instrumental colour (CIE L*, a*, b*), total viable counts (TVC), Pseudomonas spp. counts and lactic acid bacteria (LAB) counts, 2-thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) and carbonyl co…
