The development of a simple electrochemical method based on molecularly imprinted polymers for the selective determination of caffeic acid in wine

Abstract

Caffeic acid (CA) is an antioxidant of great importance in the food sector, such as wine, where it acts as a marker of wine ageing, as well as in the health sector due to its antioxidant properties and beneficial effects including the prevention of inflammation, cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and diabetes. A simple and fast electrochemical method was developed for the determination of caffeic acid in a hydroalcoholic medium, based on a molecular imprinted polymer (MIP) in order to highlight the specificity and selectivity of the polymer. A MIP specific to CA was synthesized by the radical polymerization process, using N-phenylacrylamide (N-PAA), tetraethoxysilane (TEOS), ethylene glycol dimerhacrylate (EGDMA) and azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) in the presence of CA as template molecule and under thermal conditions (60°C). Screen-printed carbon electrodes were used in the electrochemical measurements without any pre-treatment or modification of their surface, in order to ensure the simplicity of the method. Cyclic voltammograms were applied at a scan rate of 50mV/s, from -0.4 to 0.8 V, and showed that, at pH3, the polymer presented good stability and repeatability regarding CA determination. In addition, it exhibited high selectivity towards CA compared to other interferents with similar structures. Furthermore, the polymer was successfully tested for the detection of CA in wine.

New markers for monitoring “fresh mushroom aroma” in wine: A dual approach using microbiological and chemical tools from the vineyard to winery–A synthesis of recent research advances

The ‘fresh mushroom off-flavour’ has been recognized by the wine industry as an emerging defect since the 2000s. For many years, this off-flavour was not specifically characterized and rather grouped under ‘earthy’ and ‘musty’ taints. However, it has become increasingly problematic due to its rising prevalence. In some vineyards, incidents of this off-flavour now occur as frequently as once every five years. This trend may be associated with climatic changes affecting regions that are more prone to warm and wet seasons.

Optimizing disease management in the Rioja wine region: a study on Erisiphe necator and the Gubler-Thomas model

Erisiphe necator is endemic in the Rioja Appellation of Origin. Vine growers exert significant effort to protect their crops, given the economic losses this disease causes. Different studies have shown that using Gubler-Thomas Model (GTM) can reduce treatments by up to 20% compared to a full-time protection strategy. This reduction is achieved by optimizing applications based on temperature variations in late spring and summer when the disease’s conidial stage is active.

High pressure homogenization of wine lees. A tool to streamline the management of wine ageing

Aging on lees (AOL) has been used for wine aging for a long time, thanks to its ability to modify wine composition, improving sensory characteristics and stability. However, the prolonged contact with fermentation lees may increase the risk of developing sensory defects, due to the growth of unwanted microorganisms. Furthermore, AOL requires a large amount of work to manage bâtonnage and for topping up the barrels, significantly increasing production costs.
