The ability of wine yeasts fermenting by the addition of exogenous biotin

Abstract

Research is focused on the increase of the field of obtaining the wine yeast, under physical and chemical conditions. Study of different influences on yeast production is very important for the promotion of new cultivation methods for increasing both the fermentative and conservation capacity.
The present article deals with the study of biotin activity on the biotechnological properties of the wine yeast.
Our results showed that addition of biotin can offer beneficial conditions for improving the fermentation, being also an important factor of stability for wine yeast Saccharomyces ellipsoideus.

Influence of Potential Alcohol and pH Adjustment on Polyphenols and Sensory Characteristics of Red Wines Produced at Different Harvest Time Points

Wine quality is influenced by grape maturity, typically monitored by measuring sugar content and acidity.

Application of non-Saccharomyces yeasts in peculiar winemaking, sparkling and sweet wines: biological acidification, prise de mousse, aroma profile. Two cases of study

In this video recording of the IVES science meeting 2025, Raffaele Guzzon (Fondazione Edmund Mach, Centro di Trasferimento Tecnologico, San Michele all’Adige (TN), Italy) speaks about the application of non-Saccharomyces yeasts in peculiar winemaking, sparkling and sweet wines (biological acidification, prise de mousse, aroma profile). This presentation is based on an original article accessible for free on OENO One.

Geological characterization of plot belonging to the left bank terraces terroir of the Gaillac vineyard (Tarn, Midi-Pyrénées). Consequences on determination of choice of vegetative material

Detailed geological analyses of a plot belonging to the « AOC Gaillac » area have been carried out. This plot belongs to the left bank terraces of the Tarn River which coinciding with one of the three main terroirs of the AOC area. It is localised on the rissian-aged (≈ 200 000 yrs B.P.)

Role of Harvesting Time/Optimal Ripeness in Zone/Terroir Expression

La maturité optimale est définie en fonction du style de vin désiré, qui est fonction du marché. Le sol et le climat ont un effet sur la typicité des vins. Le niveau qualitatif des raisins et des vins, et le potentiel pour obtenir différents styles de vin est déterminé par l’association des caractéristiques naturel du terroir et les technologies mises en

Polyphenols in kombucha: impact of infusion time on extraction and investigation of their behavior during “fermentation”

Kombucha is a non-alcoholic beverage made of sugared tea that is transformed by a symbiotic consortium of yeasts and bacteria. Polyphenols are expected to be responsible of several health benefits attributed to kombucha consumption, among other metabolites. This study investigated the impact of tea infusion time and of kombucha “fermentation”, on total phenolic content,
