Direct SPME GC-MS determination of volatile congeners in wines without sample pre-treatment

Abstract

In this study, the “Ethanol as an Internal Standard” method was employed for the SPME GC-MS quantification of volatile congeners in wines. This method is fast, cheap, and simple, as it requires no sample pre-treatment beyond dilution with water. A series of standard solutions containing 10 commonly encountered wine congeners was prepared gravimetrically to test the method’s linearity and sensitivity. The proposed method was then compared to the traditional internal standard (IS) method, using 1-pentanol as the IS compound. Although the precision and linearity for some compounds were slightly lower when using the proposed method, these issues can be mitigated through further optimization of the SPME methodology. In terms of accuracy, the proposed method exhibited similar recoveries to the traditional IS method. Ten real wine samples (five white and five red) produced in Austria were simultaneously analysed using both IS methods for comparison. The results showed that over 90% of the obtained data (mean concentrations of individual congeners from both IS methods) did not differ significantly (p=0.05). Given its significant advantages, the “Ethanol as an Internal Standard” method is recommended for routine wine analysis.

Direkte bestimmung flüchtiger verbindungen in wein ohne probenbehandlung

In dieser arbeit wurde die methode “ethanol als interner standard” zur spme-gc-ms-quantifizierung flüchtiger kongenere in weinen verwendet. Unser ziel war es, eine schnelle und einfache methode der weinanalyse ohne zusätzliche verfahren, reagenzien usw. Zu entwickeln. Eine reihe von standardlösungen, die einige häufig vorkommende kongenere im wein enthalten, wurde gravimetrisch vorbereitet. Die vorgeschlagene methode wurde mit der traditionellen methode des internen standards verglichen. 1-pentanol wurde als traditionelle is-verbindung verwendet. 10 echte weinproben (5 weiße und 5 rote) wurden mit beiden methoden analysiert, um sie zu vergleichen.  Es wurde festgestellt, dass das vorgeschlagene verfahren in der routinemäßigen weinanalyse eingesetzt werden kann. Probleme mit der linearität für einige verbindungen können durch zusätzliche optimierung der spme-experimentparameter gelöst werden. Hinsichtlich der metrologie wurde festgestellt, dass die vorgeschlagene methode eine ähnliche wiederholbarkeit und rückgewinnungsraten wie die traditionelle is-methode aufweist. Die nachweis- und bestimmungsgrenzen waren jedoch höher für die vorgeschlagene methode. Die analyse von weinproben ergab, dass 10% der erhaltenen ergebnisse (mittlere konzentrationen einzelner kongenere, die mit beiden is erhalten wurden) signifikant unterschiedlich waren (p = 0,05).

прямое определение летучих веществ в вине без пробоподготовки

В этой работе метод с использованием этанола в качестве внутреннего стандарта был использовандля определения летучих примесей в винах методом spme gc-ms. Нашей целью было созданиебыстрого и простого метода анализа вина без дополнительных процедур, реагентов и прочего. Сериястандартных образцов, содержащих некоторые часто встречаемые в винах примеси, былаприготовлена гравиметрически. Предложенный метод был сравнен с традиционным методомвнутреннего стандарта. 1-пентанол был использован как классический внутренний стандарт. 10 реальных образцов вина (5 белых и 5 красных) были измерены двумя методами в целях сравнения.  Было обнаружено, что предложенный метод может быть использован в рутинном анализе вина. Проблемы с линейностью для некоторых компонентов могут быть решены дополнительнойоптимизацией процесса экстракции. С точки зрения метрологии, предложенный методхарактеризуется схожей с традиционным методом повторяемостью и величинами извлечениядобавок. Однако, пределы обнаружения и определения у предложенного метода были нескольковыше. Анализ реальных образцов вина показал, что 10% полученных результатов (среднееконцентрациий индивидуальных аналитов полученных двумя методами внутреннего стандарта) имеют значимое отличие при уровне значимости p=0.05.

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.

Mineral-wine profile and AI: wine authentication and identification

Enhancing the mineral wine profile: from authentication to identification by artificial intelligence for enhanced security. Analysis of a wine’s mineral concentration profile provides a distinctive fingerprint for each cuvée. Unlike organic profiles, this identification signature remains stable over time and can be deciphered using direct analysis by inductively coupled mass spectrometry (icp-ms).

Genetic traceability of the varietal origin of wines: a robust application for must and wines during alcoholic fermentation

Industry and regulatory agencies have developed regulations to ensure authenticity and compliance with wine composition limits. However, this can be truncated by the absence of simple and robust analytical methodologies, uninfluenced by the environment, different oenological techniques and cultural practices. Genetic fingerprinting is the most powerful tool for unequivocal varietal identification; it is not affected by the environment or agronomic practices; however, its usefulness in musts and wines has been controversial and there is currently no routine certification of varietal origin based on DNA analysis.

Social and environmental impacts of the adoption of a variety of table grape in the region of vale do São Francisco – Brazil

This study explores and analyzes the socio-environmental implications associated with the cultivation of the “brs-vitoria” table grape variety. Focusing on its adoption by farmers in the vale do submédio São Francisco region in Brazil, this study delves into the diverse impacts and changes brought about since its introduction, encompassing both the social and environmental dimensions of agricultural practices in the area. Embrapa, brazil’s federal agricultural research institution, encompasses a network of 43 thematic research centers spread across the nation.
