ANTIOXIDANT CAPACITY OF INACTIVATED NON-SACCHAROMYCES YEASTS

Abstract

The importance of the non-Saccharomyces yeasts (NSY) in winemaking has been extensively reviewed in the past for their aromatic or bioprotective capacity while, recently their antioxidant/antiradical potential has emerged under winemaking conditions. In the literature the antioxidant potential of NSY was solely explored through their capacity to improve glutathione (GSH) content during alcoholic fermentation [1], while more and more studies pointed out the activity of the non-glutathione soluble fraction released by yeasts [2].

Our study proposed to combine untargeted UHPLC-Q-ToF MS based metabolomic analysis with DPPH antiradical activity [3] to explore the antioxidant capacity of compounds released by inactivated non-Saccharomyces yeast (INSY) in wine like model solution. In our experimental plan, 3 INSY species were compared to one inactivated Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast (ISY) selected for its high antioxidant capacity [4]. In that way, both the species and the production process were evaluated for their impact on the metabolic fingerprint and the antioxidant capacity. Then, unsupervised analysis has been used to extract ions correlated with the antioxidant capacity of the INSY.

Our results show that, all the INSY can accumulate GSH during the specific production process with yields ranging from +170% to +360% compared to the corresponding classical production process. Among the tested INSYs, one presenting equivalent antioxidant capacity to the control ISY while was 4 times less concentrated in GSH (4.73+/-0.09 mg/g against 20.95+/-0.34 mg/g, respectively). The principal component analysis of the 3511 ions detected by UHPLC-Q-ToF MS clearly grouped INSY by species, independently of the production process. 73 specific ions presenting strong and significant spearman correlation (rho < -0.6, p-value < 0.05) with the DPPH scores, clustered the most antioxidant INSY and the control Saccharomyces in different groups, indicating that the antioxidant capacity of these two products should be driven by different pools of compounds.

These results are very valuable for future research perspectives while they point out that, first, GSH alone is not relevant to explain the antioxidant capacity of INSY soluble fraction and other more reactive compounds must be considered. Second, they support the fact that INSY antioxidant capacity is essentially driven by a specie specific metabolism and opens an avenue for the selection new species with great enological potential.

EFFECTS OF HYDROXYTYROSOL ON THE CHEMICAL PROFILE AND SENSORY ATTRIBUTES OF A RED TUSCAN WINE

The chemical profile and sensory attributes were studied in Borrigiano IGT Toscana wine (Italy), a blend of Sangiovese 85% and Cabernet Sauvignon 15% grapes harvested in September 2020, where 2-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)ethanol (hydroxytyrosol, HT, [1]) was added to a 750-ml wine bottle in 3 different amounts (30, 60, 120 mg) and compared with the control (no HT addition). The study aimed to evaluate whether Polyphenol-HT1®, a high purity HT (>99%) produced by Nova Mentis using biotechnology, could be used as a supplement to sulfites and how it would impact the sensory and chemical profile of this wine [2]. Each sample was prepared in triplicate.

BIOPROTECTION BY ADDING NON-SACCHAROMYCES YEASTS : ADVANCED RESEARCH ON THIS PROMISING ALTERNATIVE TO SO₂

Sulphur dioxide has been used for many years for its antimicrobial, antioxidant and antioxydasic properties in winemaking but nowadays, it is a source of controversy. Indeed, consumers are more attentive to the naturalness of their foods and beverages and the legislation is changing to reduce the total SO₂ levels allowed in wines. To limit and replace the doses of sulphur dioxide applied, winemakers can now use bioprotection consisting in live yeast addition as alternative,seems to be promising. This process, lightly used in from the food industry, allows to colonize the environment and limit the development or even eliminate undesirable microorganisms without altering the sensory properties of the product.

WINE WITHOUT ADDED SO₂: OXYGEN IMPACT AND EVOLUTION ON THE POLYPHENOLIC COMPOSITION DURING RED WINE AGING

SO₂ play a major role in the stability and wine during storage. Nowadays, the reduction of chemical input during red winemaking and especially the removing SO₂ is a growing expectation from the consumers. Winemaking without SO₂ is a big challenge for the winemakers since the lack of SO₂ affects directly the wine chemical evolution such as the phenolic compounds as well as its microbiological stability.

THE ODORIFEROUS VOLATILE CHEMICALS BEHIND THE OXIDATIVE AROMA DEGRADATION OF SPANISH RED WINES

It is a well-established fact that premature oxidation is noxious for wine aromatic quality and longevity. Although some oxidation-related aroma molecules have been previously identified, there are not works carrying out systematic research about the changes in the profiles of odour-active volatiles during wine oxidation.

MOUSY OFF-FLAVOURS IN WINES: UNVEILING THE MICROORGANISMS BEHIND IT

Taints and off-flavours are one of the major concerns in the wine industry and even if the issues provoked by them are harmless, they can still have a negative impact on the quality or on the visual perception of the consumer. Nowadays, the frequency of occurrence of mousy off-flavours in wines has increased.
The reasons behind this could be the significant decrease in sulphur dioxide addition during processing, the increase in pH or even the trend for spontaneous fermentation in wine. This off-flavour is associated with Brettanomyces bruxellensis or some lactic acid bacteria metabolisms.
