Alternative Methods for Measuring the Susceptibility of White Wines to Pinking Alteration: Derivative Spectroscopy and CIELab* Colour Analysis.

ABSTRACT: Pinking is the term used for describing the pink colouration that appears in white wines produced under reducing conditions when oxidised. The ability to predict the susceptibility of white wines for pinking is of utmost importance for wine producers. In this work, we critically compare the two most currently used methods for measuring pinking susceptibility and the use of the first derivative spectra and the CIEL*a*b* colour space method. The amplitude of the first derivative spectra in the 450-550 nm range has a good correlation with the values obtained by subtracting the extrapolate background at 500 nm (R² = 0.927); therefore, first derivative spectroscopy seems to be a more straightforward approach for eliminating the background problem that occurs in this method. The CIEL*a*b* method using the a* value after oxidation seems to be the most appropriate method to measure the pinking susceptibility of white wines, showing a very good correlation with the amplitude of the first derivative spectra. The pink colouration visualisation is linearly related to the b* value of the white wine, showing that no universal cut-off value for predicting the pink visualisation should be used. Second derivative spectra allow the observation of the formation of different chromophores in wines after induced oxidation.

Application of fluorescence spectroscopy using classical right angle technique in white wines classification.

Project description:The potential of excitation - emission matrices (EEM) measurements using classical right angle technique, in conjunction with chemometrics, was prospected for white wine classification with respect to their cultivar and geographical origin. For this purpose, wines belonging to four cultivars (Chardonnay, Pinot Gris, Riesling and Sauvignon) from two different countries (Romania and France) were investigated. The excitation - emission matrices were statistically processed using parallel factor analysis (PARAFAC). According to Soft Independent Modeling Classification Analogy (SIMCA) model, for cultivar differentiation, only 3 out of 107 wine samples (1 Pinot Gris (Romania); 1 Riesling (Romania) and 1 Sauvignon (France)) were misclassified while for geographical origin assessment, only 2 wines (1 Romania and 1 France) were misclassified. This study demonstrates the potential of excitation - emission fluorescence matrices spectroscopy using the classical right angle technique in wine authentication, without sample dilution.

The application of right-angle fluorescence spectroscopy as a tool to distinguish five autochthonous commercial Greek white wines.

Project description:White wine is among the most widely consumed alcoholic beverages. Varietal discrimination of wines has received increasing attention. Today's consumers require a sense of authenticity and are deterred by falsehood or misrepresentation in product marketing. However, wine can involve various types of frauds, which directly affects the distribution of wine in national and international markets. Right-angle fluorescence spectroscopy is a simple and rapid analytical technique that in combination with chemometric algorithms, constitutes a novel method for wine authentication. In this study, the stepwise-Linear Discriminant Analysis algorithm was applied in three representative spectral regions related to phenolic compounds for the purpose of distinguishing white wines according to the grape variety. The wavelength at 310 nm attributed to the hydroxycinnamic acids and stilbene provided a higher classification rate (95.5%) than the λex 280 and 295 nm regions (79.8%), suggesting that these compounds are highly related to the botanical origin of samples. The chemometric models were validated utilizing cross-validation and an external validation set to enhance the robustness of the proposed methodology. The above-mentioned methodology constitutes a powerful tool for the varietal discrimination of white wines and can be used in industrial setting. The ultimate goal of this study is to contribute to the efforts towards the authentication of Greek white wine which will eventually support producers and suppliers to remain competitive and simultaneously protect the consumers from fraudulent practices.

Metabolic characterization of Palatinate German white wines according to sensory attributes, varieties, and vintages using NMR spectroscopy and multivariate data analyses.

Project description:(1)H NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy) has been used for metabolomic analysis of 'Riesling' and 'Mueller-Thurgau' white wines from the German Palatinate region. Diverse two-dimensional NMR techniques have been applied for the identification of metabolites, including phenolics. It is shown that sensory analysis correlates with NMR-based metabolic profiles of wine. (1)H NMR data in combination with multivariate data analysis methods, like principal component analysis (PCA), partial least squares projections to latent structures (PLS), and bidirectional orthogonal projections to latent structures (O2PLS) analysis, were employed in an attempt to identify the metabolites responsible for the taste of wine, using a non-targeted approach. The high quality wines were characterized by elevated levels of compounds like proline, 2,3-butanediol, malate, quercetin, and catechin. Characterization of wine based on type and vintage was also done using orthogonal projections to latent structures (OPLS) analysis. 'Riesling' wines were characterized by higher levels of catechin, caftarate, valine, proline, malate, and citrate whereas compounds like quercetin, resveratrol, gallate, leucine, threonine, succinate, and lactate, were found discriminating for 'Mueller-Thurgau'. The wines from 2006 vintage were dominated by leucine, phenylalanine, citrate, malate, and phenolics, while valine, proline, alanine, and succinate were predominantly present in the 2007 vintage. Based on these results, it can be postulated the NMR-based metabolomics offers an easy and comprehensive analysis of wine and in combination with multivariate data analyses can be used to investigate the source of the wines and to predict certain sensory aspects of wine.

Alternative methods of accounting for underreporting and overreporting when measuring dietary intake-obesity relations.

Project description:Misreporting characterized by the reporting of implausible energy intakes may undermine the valid estimation of diet-disease relations, but the methods to best identify and account for misreporting are unknown. The present study compared how alternate approaches affected associations between selected dietary factors and body mass index (BMI) by using data from the European Prospective Investigation Into Cancer and Nutrition-Spain. A total of 24,332 women and 15,061 men 29-65 years of age recruited from 1992 to 1996 for whom measured height and weight and validated diet history data were available were included. Misreporters were identified on the basis of disparities between reported energy intakes and estimated requirements calculated using the original Goldberg method and 2 alternatives: one that substituted basal metabolic rate equations that are more valid at higher BMIs and another that used doubly labeled water-predicted total energy expenditure equations. Compared with results obtained using the original method, underreporting was considerably lower and overreporting higher with alternative methods, which were highly concordant. Accounting for misreporters with all methods yielded diet-BMI relations that were more consistent with expectations; alternative methods often strengthened associations. For example, among women, multivariable-adjusted differences in BMI for the highest versus lowest vegetable intake tertile (β = 0.37 (standard error, 0.07)) were neutral after adjusting with the original method (β = 0.01 (standard error, 07)) and negative using the predicted total energy expenditure method with stringent cutoffs (β = -0.15 (standard error, 0.07)). Alternative methods may yield more valid associations between diet and obesity-related outcomes.

Commercial Mannoproteins Improve the Mouthfeel and Colour of Wines Obtained by Excessive Tannin Extraction.

Project description:In the production of red wines, the pressing of marcs and extended maceration techniques can increase the extraction of phenolic compounds, often imparting high bitterness and astringency to finished wines. Among various oenological products, mannoproteins have been shown to improve the mouthfeel of red wines. In this work, extended maceration (E), marc-pressed (P), and free-run (F) Sangiovese wines were aged for six months in contact with three different commercial mannoprotein-rich yeast extracts (MP, MS, and MF) at a concentration of 20 g/hL. Phenolic compounds were measured in treated and control wines, and sensory characteristics related to the astringency, aroma, and colour of the wines were studied. A multivariate analysis revealed that mannoproteins had a different effect depending on the anthocyanin/tannin (A/T) ratio of the wine. When tannins are strongly present (extended maceration wines with A/T = 0.2), the MP conferred mouthcoating and soft and velvety sensations, as well as colour stability to the wine. At A/T = 0.3, as in marc-pressed wines, both MF and MP improved the mouthfeel and colour of Sangiovese. However, in free-run wine, where the A/T ratio is 0.5, the formation of polymeric pigments was allowed by all treatments and correlated with silk, velvet, and mouthcoat subqualities. A decrease in bitterness was also obtained. Commercial mannoproteins may represent a way to improve the mouthfeel and colour of very tannic wines.

Pharmacokinetic Alteration of Paclitaxel by Ferulic Acid Derivative.

Project description:P-glycoprotein (P-gp) is known to be involved in multidrug resistance (MDR) and modulation of pharmacokinetic (PK) profiles of substrate drugs. Here, we studied the effects of synthesized ferulic acid (FA) derivatives on P-gp function in vitro and examined PK alteration of paclitaxel (PTX), a well-known P-gp substrate drug by the derivative. Compound 5c, the FA derivative chosen as a significant P-gp inhibitor among eight FA candidates by in vitro results, increased PTX AUCinf as much as twofold versus the control by reducing PTX elimination in rats. These results suggest that FA derivative can increase PTX bioavailability by inhibiting P-gp existing in eliminating organs.

Evaluation of a Commercial Device Based on Reflection Spectroscopy as an Alternative to Resonance Raman Spectroscopy in Measuring Skin Carotenoid Levels: Randomized Controlled Trial.

Project description:Resonance Raman spectroscopy (RRS) has been used as a reference method for measuring skin carotenoid levels (SCL), which indicate vegetable and fruit intake. However, RRS is not an easy-to-use method in SCL measurement due to its complicated implementation. In this study, a commercial spectrophotometer based on reflection spectroscopy (RS), which is relatively simple and inexpensive, was evaluated to confirm usability compared with RRS in measuring SCL. To investigate the agreement between RS and RRS, eighty participants were randomly assigned to a high-carotenoid diet group (21 mg/day of total carotenoids) or a control-carotenoid diet group (14 mg/day of total carotenoids) during a 6-week whole-diet intervention period and a 4-week tracking period. Strong correlations between the RS and RRS methods were observed at baseline (r = 0.944) and the entire period (r = 0.930). The rate of SCL increase was similar during the diet intervention; however, the initiation of the SCL decrease in RS was slower than in RRS during the tracking period. To confirm the agreement of RS and RRS from various perspectives, new visualization tools and indices were additionally applied and confirmed the similar response patterns of the two methods. The results indicate that the proposed RS method could be an alternative to RRS in SCL measurements.

Free Monoterpene Isomer Profiles of Vitis Vinifera L. cv. White Wines.

Project description:Monoterpene compounds contribute floral and fruity characters to wine and are desired by grape growers and winemakers for many white wines. However, monoterpene isomers, especially monoterpene enantiomers, have been little explored. It is possible to identify and quantitate 17 monoterpene isomers in 148 varietal wines from eight grape varieties; Chardonnay, Gewürztraminer, Muscat, Pinot gris, Riesling, Sauvignon blanc, Torrontes, and Viognier in two vintages by Headspace solidphase microextraction multidimensional gas chromatography mass spectrometry (HS-SPME-MDGC-MS). Results obtained from general linear models and discriminant analysis showed significant differences for the isomer profiles and enantiomer fractions among the eight grape varieties and four wine styles. The high R2 values from the fitted line show low variation in enantiomeric differences based on variety. These results provide an overview of the monoterpene isomers of wide varietal wines, and support that isomer profiles and enantiomer fractions could differentiate our wines by varietal and wine style.

Expedite SERS Fingerprinting of Portuguese White Wines Using Plasmonic Silver Nanostars.

Project description:Surface-enhanced Raman Spectrosocopy (SERS) is a highly sensitive form of Raman spectroscopy, with strong selectivity for Raman-active molecules adsorbed to plasmonic nanostructured surfaces. Extremely intense Raman signals derive from "hotspots", generally created by the aggregation of a silver nanospheres colloid. An alternative and cleaner approach is the use of anisotropic silver nanoparticles, with intrinsic "hotspots", allowing a more controlled enhancement effect as it is not dependent on disordered nanoparticle aggregation. Here, a simple SERS-based test is proposed for Portuguese white wines fingerprinting. The test is done by mixing microliter volumes of a silver nanostars colloid and the white wine sample. SERS spectra obtained directly from these mixtures, with no further treatments, are analyzed by principal component analysis (PCA), using a dedicated software. Depending on the duration of the incubation period, different discrimination can be obtained for the fingerprinting. A "mix-and-read" approach, with practically no incubation, allows for a simple discrimination between the three white wines tested. An overnight incubation allows for full discrimination between varieties of wine (Verde or Maduro), as well as between wines from different Maduro wine regions. This use of SERS in a straightforward, fast and inexpensive test for wine fingerprinting, avoiding the need for prior sample treatment, paves the way for the development of a simple and inexpensive authenticity assay for wines from specific appellations.

Comparison of Primary Laser Spectroscopy and Mass Spectrometry Methods for Measuring Mass Concentration of Gaseous Elemental Mercury.

Project description:We present a direct comparison between two independent methods for the measurement of gaseous elemental mercury (GEM) mass concentration: isotope dilution cold-vapor inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ID-CV-ICP-MS) and laser absorption spectroscopy (LAS). The former technique combined with passive sorbent tube sampling is currently the primary method at NIST for mercury gas standards traceability to the International System of Units (SI). This traceability is achieved via measurements on a mercury-containing reference material. The latter technique has been recently developed at NIST and involves real-time measurements of light attenuation caused by GEM, with SI traceability based in part on the known spontaneous emission lifetime of the probed 6 1S0-6 3P1 intercombination transition of elemental mercury (Hg0). Using a steady-flow Hg0-in-air generator to produce samples measured by both methods, we use LAS to measure the sample gas and in parallel we collect the Hg0 on sorbent tubes to be subsequently analyzed using ID-CV-ICP-MS. Over the examined mass concentration range (41 μg/m3 to 287 μg/m3 Hg0 in air), the relative disagreement between the two approaches ranged from (1.0 to 1.8)%. The relative combined standard uncertainty on average is 0.4% and 0.9%, for the LAS and MS methods, respectively. Our comparison studies help validate the accuracy of the ID-CV-ICP-MS primary method as well as establish the LAS technique as an attractive alternative primary method for SI-traceable measurements of GEM.
