Preliminary studies on polyphenol assessment by Fourier transform-near infrared spectroscopy (FT-NIR) in grape berries

Abstract

NIR spectroscopy has widely been tested in viticulture as powerful alternative to traditional analytical methods in the field of quality evaluation. NIR instruments have been used for assessing must and wine quality features in several works, but little information regarding their application on whole berries for polyphenol determination is available. In this study, we applied NIR technique to assess anthocyanin content in Vitis vinifera L. cv ‘Barbera’ intact berries, by collecting samples from different vineyards of Southern Piedmont (Italy). NIR analyses were performed using a FT-NIR spectrometer, whereas anthocyanins were detected according to a previously published method. Calibrations, elaborated to test NIR predictive capacity against HPLC measurements, showed a good correlation for the parameter total anthocyanins mg kg-1 (R2 = 0.93; SEP = ± 94 mg kg-1).

Monitoring of mannoprotein cessions during wine aging on lees: development of a simple enzymatic method

Mannoproteins are polysaccharides released by Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast during alcoholic fermentation or by enzymatic action during aging on yeast lees (autolysis). These molecules play a major role in wine characteristics processing, namely, in the tartaric stabilization and protein haze prevention; moreover, they improve color stability and reduce astringency.

Chemistry and analysis of key volatile compounds of wine and their precursors in grape

A relatively small number of the many volatile substances of wine, often present at trace

under poorly odoriferous or non volatile forms as aroma precursors.

Identification and formation kinetic study of phenolic compounds-volatile thiols adducts by enzymatic oxidation

By using HPLC-ESI-MS, 1H, 13C and 2D NMR, new addition products between catechin, epicatechin, caftaric acid and 3SH were characterized. Caftaric acid formed more rapidly adducts with 3SH than catechin and epicatechin in the absence of other nucleophiles.
