    Chapter 6 Advances in Distilled Beverages Authenticity and Quality Testing Teodora Emilia Coldea, Elena Mudura and Carmen Socaciu Teodora Emilia Coldea, Elena Mudura and CarmenAdditional information Socaciu is available at the end of the chapter Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/intechopen.72041 Abstract Given the advent of the consumers and producers demands, researches are focusing lately to develop innovative, cost-effective, progressively complex alcoholic beverages. As alco- hol consumption has a heavy impact on social environment and health, fast and safe solu- tions for industrial application are needed. In this chapter, the recent advances in the field of alcoholic beverages authenticity and quality testing are summarised. Solutions for the online monitoring of the process of distilled beverages are offered and the recent methods for identification of raw material and process formed biomarkers of distilled beverages are presented. Keywords: distilled beverages, authenticity, biomarkers 1. Introduction Distilled beverages are important for consumers, producers and agricultural sector. Last decades presented us continuously changed requirements and descriptive practices for high level of consumer’s protection with impact on the market transparency and fair competition. Both traditional methods and innovative technologies applied in distilled beverages production are focusing on their quality improvement. The principal requirement set for an alcoholic beverage can be summarised as: are intended for human consumption, have specific sensory properties, with a minimum ethyl alcohol content of 15% v/v produced either by distillation with addition of flavourings, of naturally fermented products, or by addition of plant ethanol macerates, or by blending of flavourings, sugars, other © 2016 The Author(s).

  • C-Glucosidic Ellagitannin Concentrations Variability During the Years in Syrah Wines from Languedoc Vineyard

C-Glucosidic ellagitannins, which are the main polyphenolic compounds in oak heartwood, are extracted by wine during aging in oak barrels. The C-glucosidic ellagitannins were extracted and purified (> 95% pure) from Quercus robur heartwood and the hemisynthesis of acutissimins A and B, as well as that of epiacutissimins A and B were performed in an acidic organic solution to identified and quantified their concentration ranges by HPLC-UV-MS in 17 Syrah wine samples from the same cultivar area, Languedoc, same quality wood of French oak barrel, same time of oak barrel ageing (12 months) and different ageing period (years from 1999 to 2011). Unlike our first hypothesis, the linear relationship of a reduction in the total content of ellagitannins with the time spent in bottles is not visible. 1. Introduction are gradually extracted by the wine solution during barrel aging. During wine aging in oak barrels, two large families These C-glucosidic ellagitannins are continuously of molecules are extracted; non-tannin compounds (e.g., transformed through condensation, hydrolysis, and oxi- aldehydes and acids phenols, coumarins, lignin, polysac- dation reactions.

  • Extraction of Ellagitannins from Oak Wood of Model Casks
    Vitis 35 (4), 211-214 (1996) Extraction of ellagitannins from oak wood of model casks by 1 ) INRA-IPV, Laboratoire des Polymeres et des Techniques Physico-Chimiques, Montpellier, France 2) Charge de Recherches pour l'ONF, Laboratoire de Recherches en Sciences Forestieres de l'ENGREF, Nancy, France S u m mar y : Eight experimental model casks were constructed using wood from four oak trees and filled with a 12% ethanol solution for 200 days. The concentration of ellagitannins was subsequently measured in the solutions and in the inner and outer faces of the cask wood. Only a low proportion of the total ellagitannins was extracted from the wood, and this proportion varied significantly between both different casks and between the eight ellagitannins measured. The two most abundant ellagitannins, castalagin and vescalagin, were the least easily extracted. The concentration of ellagitannins was much lower in the solutions than expected from calculations based on the difference between the inner and outer faces of the wood. This suggests that significant degradation of ellagitannins occurs subsequent to their extraction into solution. K e y w or d s : oak wood, ellagitannins, casks, extractives. Introduction This paper examines the results of a recent trial us­ ing model casks where the concentration of different In the heartwood of European oak wood (Quercus tannins extracted by a 12 % ethanol solution was com­ robur and Q. petraea) ellagitannins make up to 10 % of pared with subsequent measurement of remaining con­ the dry weight.

The objective of this study was to determine the cytoprotective capacity of this polyphenol in Neuro-2a cells subjected to oxidative stress, as well as its direct radical scavenging activity and properties as an inhibitor of oxidases. Cells treated with this compound and H2O2 showed a greater response to oxidative stress than cells only treated with H2O2, as mitochondrial activity (MTT assay), redox state (ROS formation, lipid peroxidation), and the activity of antioxidant enzymes (CAT: catalase, SOD: superoxide dismutase, GR: glutathione reductase, GPx: glutathione peroxidase) were significantly ameliorated; additionally, urolithin A enhanced the expression of cytoprotective peroxiredoxins 1 and 3. Urolithin A also acted as a direct radical scavenger, showing values of 13.2 µM Trolox Equivalents for Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC) and 5.01 µM and 152.66 µM IC50 values for superoxide and 2,2-diphenyss1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radicals, respectively.
