Analysis of Intact Glycosidic Aroma Precursors in Grapes by High-Performance Liquid Chromatography with a Diode Array Detector.

ABSTRACT: Nowadays, the techniques for the analysis of glycosidic precursors in grapes involve changes in the glycoside structure or it is necessary the use of very expensive analytical techniques. In this study, we describe for the first time an approach to analyse intact glycosidic aroma precursors in grapes by high-performance liquid chromatography with a diode array detector (HPLC-DAD), a simple and cheap analytical technique that could be used in wineries. Briefly, the skin of Muscat of Alexandria grapes was extracted using a microwave and purified using solid-phase extraction combining Oasis MCX and LiChrolut EN cartridges. In total, 20 compounds were selected by HPLC-DAD at 195 nm and taking as a reference the spectrum of phenyl ?-D-glucopyranoside, whose DAD spectrum showed a first shoulder from 190 to 230 nm and a second around 200-360 nm. After that, these glycosidic compounds were identified by High-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (HPLC-qTOF-MS). Disaccharides hexose pentose were the most abundant group observed with respect to the sugars and monoterpendiols the main aglycones found.
