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 OF BIOPROSPECTING TOOLS FOR OENOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS

Wine production is a complex biochemical process that involves a heterogeneous microbiota consisting of different microorganisms such as yeasts, bacteria, and filamentous fungi. Among these microorganisms, yeasts play a predominant role in the chemistry of wine, as they actively participate in alcoholic fermentation, a biochemical process that transforms the sugars in grapes into ethanol and carbon dioxide while producing additional by-products. The quality of the final product is greatly influenced by the microbiota present in the grape berry, and the demand for indigenous yeast starters adapted to specific grape must and reflecting the biodiversity of a particular region is increasing. This supports the concept that indigenous yeast strains can be associated with a “terroir”.

From vineyard to bottle. Rationalizing grape compositional drivers of the expression of valpolicella aroma ‘terroir’

AIM: Valpolicella is a renowned Italian wine-producing region (Paronetto, 1981). Wines produced in its different sub-regions are anecdotally believed to be aromatically different, although there is no systematic study addressing the chemical bases of such diversity

Tolerance to sunburn: a variable to consider in the context of climate change

Climate change effects on grapevine phenology and grape primary and secondary metabolites are well described in recent literature. Increasing frequency and intensity of heat waves may be responsible for important yield losses in the future. However, the impact of this event is not so well described in literature. The present study highlights the importance of grape variety tolerance as a mitigation tool to climate change.
