Mathematical models of the dynamics of fermentation of wine yeasts under the influence of vitamins

Abstract

Biomass accumulation in yeast has been studied in this work in terms of their role in fermentation processes. So, biotin is involved in many reactions and nitrogen metabolism disorders, in protein biosynthesis and fatty acid synthesis. It is known that yeast cell is not capable to synthesize biotin, but it presence in the environment is unconditionally linked to production cost. Requirement for biotin yeast partially reduced in the presence of amino dicarboxylic environment. Effectiveness is increased under conditions of intense aeration, ascertaining the best results when additives order thousandths per liter of fermentation under anaerobic conditions (Banu, 2008, 2009).
Inositol (vitamin B9) is a derivative of cyclohexane polyol, which participate in lipid synthesis and especially phosphoglycerides.
Comparative studies have demonstrated their good role in fermentation processes and in particular to obtain yeast biomass with higher quality biotech.

Can yeast cells sense other yeasts beyond competition interactions?

The utilization of non-Saccharomyces yeasts in the wine industry has increased significantly in recent years. Alternative species need commonly be employed in combination with Saccharomyces cerevisiae to avoid stuck fermentation, or microbial spoilage. The employment of more than one yeast starter can lead to interactions between different species with an impact on the outcome of wine fermentation. Previous studies[1] demonstrated that S. cerevisiae elicits transcriptional responses with both shared and species-specific features in co-culture with other yeast species.

Crossed approaches to experimental economics and sensory analysis regarding noble rot sweet wines perception

Noble rot sweet wines are reputed wines, traditionally elaborated according to a singular vinification process involving the harvesting of overripe grapes under the action of the ascomycete fungus Botrytis cinerea.

Epigenetics: an innovative lever for grapevine breeding in times of climatic changes

In this video recording of the IVES science meeting 2025, Margot Berger (INRAE, UMR1287 EGFV, Institut des Sciences de la Vigne et du Vin, Villenave d’Ornon, France) speaks about epigenetics as an innovative lever for grapevine breeding in times of climatic changes. This presentation is based on an original article accessible for free on OENO One.

REGAVID a decision tool to deficit irrigation in a temperate climate (DO Monterrei – Spain)

In temperate climates, such as in the North of Spain, the use of irrigation in the vineyard has not been required, due to the usual rainfall from June to August. In some large vineyards, irrigation management has been carried out, based on occasional support irrigation, or for the application of nutrients (fertigation). Currently it is necessary to implement decision support models to manage irrigation water in real time and avoid misuse of a scarce resource. Moreover, quality standards must be achieved, as in the previous rainfed viticulture.

Barbera d’Asti: the characterization of the vineyard sites

[English version below]

L’objectif de l’étude est de mettre en évidence les différences rencontrées entre les vins Barbera d’Asti, qui sont produits en AOC. Celles-ci sont imputées aux terroirs caractérisés selon les facteurs pédologiques, climatiques, et qui conduisent à des différents potentiels viticoles et œnologiques. Il est proposé une individualisation des sous-zones.
