Characterization and biological effects of extracts from winery by-products

Abstract

Pomace, stem, grapevine leaves, and vine shoots arise as so called winery by-products during the wine production process. Due to their high content of secondary plant metabolites, such as polyphenols, their usage as sources of bioactive compounds offers an opportunity to obtain value-added products for the food and pharmaceutical industry. The aim of the present study was to investigate extracts from winery by-products of Vitis vinifera L. cv. Riesling from the region ‚Pfalz‘ in Rhineland-Platinate, Germany with regard to their chemical composition and biological effect in vitro. Total phenolic contents (TPC) of pomace, stem, vine leaf, and vine shoot extracts were determined by Folin-Ciocalteu method and polyphenolic profiles were characterized by HPLC-UV/Vis-ESI-MS/MS. The extracts showed TPCs ranging from 432 to 665 mg GAE/g extract. Besides flavanols, as for example catechin, epicatechin and procyanidins, phenolic acids and flavonols, such as quercetin und kaempferol derivates were tentatively identified, amongst others, by HPLC-UV/Vis-ESI-MS/MS analysis in the negative ion mode. Stilbenes represent an additional group of polyphenols present in the extracts from winery by-products, including trans-resveratrol, piceid, piceatannol and ε-viniferin being identified. In the human hepatocarcinoma cell line HepG2 effects of the extracts on cell viability, intracellular ATP, the mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), and tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBH)-induced intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) were determined in vitro. Dose-dependent cytotoxic effects were observed besides protective effects regarding TBH-induced intracellular ROS level, and partially impaired MMP. Thus, winery by-products represent interesting sources of bioactive compounds exerting positive and/or negative effects on mitochondrial function in liver cells.

Using image analysis for assessing downy mildew severity in grapevine

Aim: Downy mildew is a crucial disease in viticulture. In-field evaluation of downy mildew has been classically based on visual inspection of leaves and fruit. Nevertheless, non-invasive sensing technologies could be used for disease detection in grapevine. The aim of this study was to assess downy mildew severity in grapevine leaves using machine vision.

Impact of polyclonal selection for abiotic stress tolerance on the yield and must quality traits of grapevine varieties

The effects of climate change in viticulture are currently a major concern, with heat waves and drought affecting yield, wine quality, and in extreme cases, even plant survival. Ancient grapevine varieties have high intravarietal genetic variability that so far has been explored successfully to improve yield and must quality. Currently, there is little information available on intravarietal variability regarding responses to stress. In the current work, the intravarietal genetic variability of several Portuguese varieties was studied for yield, must quality, and tolerance to abiotic stress, through indirect, rapid, and nondestructive measurements carried out in the field.

Analysis of off flavours in grapes infected with the fungal bunch rot pathogens, Aspergillus, Botrytis and Pencillium

Fungal bunch rots of grapes cause major losses to grape yield worldwide, yet the impact these moulds have on grape and wine quality is not well characterised. We sought to investigate the formation of unwanted volatile compounds of fungal origin in both synthetic grape juice culture media and in inoculated grape berries. Botrytis cinerea, Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus carbonarius, or Pencillium expansum were grown in synthetic grape juice medium and the culture homogenates analysed 4 and 7 days post inoculation. HS-SPME-GC-MS analysis of the culture homogenates 4 days post inoculation demonstrated that each of the fungi examined produced varying quantities of the mushroom or fungus-like aroma compounds, 1-Octen-3-ol, 1-Octen-3-one and 3-Octanone with A. carbonarius producing up to ten times the amounts of all three metabolites per mg of dry mycelium.
