Research paper thumbnail of Effect of Yeast Assimilable Nitrogen Content on Fermentation Kinetics, Wine Chemical Composition and Sensory Character in the Production of Assyrtiko Wines

A third commercial Saccharomyces strain was also studied for comparison reasons. Two concentrations of yeast extract and diammonium phosphate (DAP) were added to the must (150 and 250 mg/L) in order to evaluate the effect of nitrogen content on the final wine quality. Analytical methods (HPLC, GC-MS) and sensory analysis were employed to assess the quality of the wines. Fermentation kinetics were monitored throughout the experiment. By the second day of fermentation, all strains showed an approximate consumption of 70% of amino acids. Differences among strains were observed regarding inorganic nitrogen requirements. Sb strain resulted in higher concentrations of higher alcohols (1.9-fold) and ketones (5.6-fold) and lower concentrations of esters (1.2-fold) compared to the control, while Sa strain resulted in higher content of fatty acids (2.1-fol...

For this reason, it is often used for authentication and traceability purposes with more than satisfactory results. In this review, an outline of the reasons why authenticity and traceability are important to the wine sector is given, along with a brief overview of the analytical methods used for their attainment; statistical issues and compounds, on which authentication usually is based, are discussed. Moreover, insight on the mode of action of FT-IR is given, along with successful examples from its use in different areas of interest for classification. Finally, prospects and challenges for suggested future research are given. For more accurate and effective analyses, the construction of a large database consisting of wines from different regions, varieties and winemaking protocols is suggested.

Research paper thumbnail of Preliminary study of flavor compounds as oxidation markers in bottled white wines of Greek origin

Volatile compounds, resistance to oxidative degradation and total and free-sulfur dioxide content were recorded in all samples. Results were processed using the root cause analysis versus packaging and storage conditions. Additionally, a predictive model has been constructed to estimate the shelf life of the bottled wine.Results: Physicochemical analysis indicated the absence of significant oxidative degradations during the first 7 months. Furthermore, 12-month stored samples showed a significant alteration in their flavor profile. Based on the concentrati...

For this purpose, red wine samples containing 0 ppm, 30 ppm, 60 ppm and 100 ppm of sulphur dioxide (SO2) were subjected to pressure of 350 MPa for 10 min at 8 ∘C. A second set of samples containing only SO2 was used as control. Colour parameters, acetic acid, total anthocyanin and phenolic contents and antioxidant activity were determined over a period of twelve months. During the first four months, most of the differences observed regarding the chemical composition of the pressurized and unpressurized wines were not statistically significant. However, after the period of six months, the pressurized samples in general were characterized by higher average values % yellow colour and acetic acid and lower of % red colour, total anthocyanin and phenolic content compared to the...

Research paper thumbnail of Evaluation of a Raman spectroscopic method for the determination of alcohol content in Greek spirit Tsipouro

A univariate calibration model was constructed employing the band area at 880 cm-1 of standard ethanol solutions. The concentrations of 46 samples were then measured using the calibration model and the results were compared with those obtained using the conventional analysis employing a distillation step. Alcohol content in Greek spirit Tsipouro measured with the conventional method ranged from 35.1 to 71.2 % (v/v). The determination coefficient (R2) value was 0.9997 while the corresponding values of the relative errors ranged between – 13.1 -1.0 %. According to the proposed method the alcohol concentration in Greek spirit Tsipouro ranged from 27.7 to 68.2 % (v/v). The proposed method is simple, rapid, economical and does not require any sample pre-treatment steps. It could be a starting point for the design of more specific models acc...

Browning, however, is known to be related with polyphenol oxidation and therefore it may be delayed by the presence of antioxidants such as selenium (Se) and SO2. On the other hand, the presence of oxidants such as metal ions and H2O2 can accelerate browning and oxidation phenomena. The browning capacity, the phenolic composition (both total and individual contents of flavanols and hydroxycinnamic acids), the antioxidant activity, and the SO2 content of Assyrtiko white wines were studied after the addition of Fe2+ and H2O2 and Se at two temperatures, employing an accelerated test. Browning was approached from a kinetic point of view, and the study was focused on the implication of oxidants and antioxidants on browning rate, paying particular attention to the content of major redox-active polyphenols, including ...
