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.

Development and validation of a free solvent UHPLC/MS-MS method to analyse melatonin and its precursors in Spanish commercial wines  

Melatonin is a bioactive compound present in foods and beverages such as wines. During alcoholic fermentation, yeast transforms tryptophan into certain indole compounds, including melatonin. This paper aims to develop and validate a free solvent analytical method by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography coupled with high resolution mass spectrometry (UHPLC/MS-MS) to determine melatonin and its precursors (L-tryptophan, tryptamine, serotonin, tryptophol, N-acetylserotonin, 5-hydroxytryptophan, and 3- indoleacetic) that appropriately prevent the matrix effect.

Color stabilization properties of oenological tannins

The use of oenological tannins is authorized for many years by the OIV and advised for color stabilization. For this reason, winemakers look for a better understanding of tannins/anthocyanins interactions to produce deeply colored wines with great color stability during aging.

The use of elicitors in viticulture: a tool to obtain highly colored wines with a reduce alcohol content?

Climate change is causing a gap between the technological and phenolic maturity of grapes, resulting in wines with high alcohol content and low polyphenol concentration. Another phenomenon associated with high temperatures and whose effect is more pronounced if the harvest is delayed is the decrease in the acidity of the grapes, mainly in malic acid, and an increase in pH caused by the accumulation of potassium derived from the increase in temperature. Therefore, climate change and the effects it causes on the vine leads to unbalanced wines, with high alcohol content and lack of color, with green tannins, astringency and excessively low acidity if not corrected.

Sensorial characteristic of single variety red wines from four local variants of Tempranillo

It is well-known that there is a relationship between the “terroir” and the characteristics of grapes and quality of wines. However, adequate grape variety and other cultural factors should be also taken into account

Quantification of red wine phenolics using ultraviolet-visible, near and mid-infrared spectroscopy combined with chemometrics

The use of multivariate statistics to correlate chemical data to spectral information seems as a valid alternative for the quantification of red wine phenolics. The advantages of these techniques include simplicity and cost effectiveness together with the limited time of analysis required. Although many
publications on this subject are nowadays available in the literature most of them only reported feasibility
studies. In this study 400 samples from thirteen fermentations including five different cultivars plus 150
wine samples from a varying number of vintages were submitted to spectrophotometric and chromatographic phenolic analysis.
