The development of a simple electrochemical method based on molecularly imprinted polymers for the selective determination of caffeic acid in wine

Abstract

Caffeic acid (CA) is an antioxidant of great importance in the food sector, such as wine, where it acts as a marker of wine ageing, as well as in the health sector due to its antioxidant properties and beneficial effects including the prevention of inflammation, cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and diabetes. A simple and fast electrochemical method was developed for the determination of caffeic acid in a hydroalcoholic medium, based on a molecular imprinted polymer (MIP) in order to highlight the specificity and selectivity of the polymer. A MIP specific to CA was synthesized by the radical polymerization process, using N-phenylacrylamide (N-PAA), tetraethoxysilane (TEOS), ethylene glycol dimerhacrylate (EGDMA) and azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) in the presence of CA as template molecule and under thermal conditions (60°C). Screen-printed carbon electrodes were used in the electrochemical measurements without any pre-treatment or modification of their surface, in order to ensure the simplicity of the method. Cyclic voltammograms were applied at a scan rate of 50mV/s, from -0.4 to 0.8 V, and showed that, at pH3, the polymer presented good stability and repeatability regarding CA determination. In addition, it exhibited high selectivity towards CA compared to other interferents with similar structures. Furthermore, the polymer was successfully tested for the detection of CA in wine.

Study of grape physiology and wine quality (cv. Merlot) in different identified terroirs of the canton Ticino (Switzerland)

Une étude de la physiologie de la vigne (cv. Merlot) et de la qualité des vins a été réalisée au Tessin de 2006 à 2008. La méthodologie utilisée pour cette étude intégrait tous les paramètres qui définissent les terroirs: facteurs naturels (géologie, pédologie et climat), facteurs physiologiques de la vigne et qualité des vins qui sont les révélateurs de la valeur d’un terroir.

VITIGEOSS Business Service: Task scheduling optimization in vineyards

Agriculture plantations are complex systems whose performance critically depends on the execution of several types of tasks with precise timing and efficiency to respond to different external factors. This is particularly true for orchards like vineyards, which need to be strictly monitored and regulated, as they are sensitive to diverse types of pests, and climate conditions. In these environments, managing and optimally scheduling the available work force and resources is not trivial and is usually done by teams of senior managers based on their experience. In this regard, having a baseline schedule could help them in the decision process and improve their results, in terms of time and resources spent.

The dynamics of δ13C and δ18O in musts during berries development

Aim: Many processes or reactions that occur in plants involved isotopic discrimination. Water availability, for example, affects the isotopic ratio of carbon (δ13C) and oxygen (δ18O). In viticulture, δ13C is used in experiments related to water relations and irrigation in vineyards. δ18O is used much less but it could be a good complement to δ13C. The aim of this study was to generate knowledge on how these isotopic ratios, measured in musts, could help to better understand the water behavior of grape varieties.
