ABSTRACT A quantitative and qualitative identification of the nitrogenous constituents of unfermented and final fermented wort has been performed for five industrial yeast strains. Results highlight the importance of three key amino acids in yeast fermentation performance. Supplementation of wort using individual amino acids and ammonia clearly demonstrate lysine and arginine to be marker nitrogen wort constituents. Synergistic effects of individual wort free amino acids and ammonia on yeast fermentation efficiency were also examined. Further analysis of nitrogeneous wort constituents included examination of oligopeptides with a molecular weight of less than 500 Daltons and the influence of yeast proteases on the availability of small peptides during fermentation. Both lager and ale yeast can simultaneously use amino acids and small peptides as sources of assimilable nitrogen. Laboratory malt and mash analysis of 28 malt types revealed that 80-95% of total free amino nitrogen originates during malting and the remaining 5-20% during mashing.

Stewart International Centre for Brewing & Distilling, Heriot-Watt University, Riccarton, Edinburgh EH14 4AS, Scotland; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +44-1314513458 Received: 22 January 2019; Accepted: 13 February 2019; Published: 18 February 2019 Abstract: The role of nitrogenous components in malt and wort during the production of beer has long been recognized. The concentration and range of wort amino acids impact on ethanolic fermentation by yeast and on the production of a range of flavour and aroma compounds in the final beer. This review summarizes research on Free Amino Nitrogen (FAN) within brewing, including various methods of analysis. Keywords: brewing; fermentation; free amino nitrogen; wort; yeast 1. Introduction The earliest written account of brewing dates from Mesopotamian times [1]. However, our understanding of the connection with yeast is relatively recent, starting with Leeuwenhoek’s microscope observations in the 17th century followed by the work of Lavoisier, Gay-Lussac, Schwann and others during the 18th and 19th centuries. It was not until the late 19th century that Pasteur demonstrated that fermented beverages result from the action of living yeast’s transformation of glucose (and other sugars) into ethanol [2–4]. Since then, our knowledge has expanded exponentially, particularly with the development of molecular biology techniques [5]. In this review, we cover the particular contribution that wort nitrogen components play in beer production during fermentation. A number of terms are used to define wort nitrogenous components: Free Amino Nitrogen (FAN) is a measure of the nitrogen compounds that may be assimilated or metabolised by yeast during fermentation.

  • Fingerprint Source Book Chapter 3 Finger Mark Development
    Fingerprint Source Book – Chapter 3: Finger mark development techniques within scope of ISO 17025 3.4 Ninhydrin 1. History 1.1 Ninhydrin was first synthesised by Ruhemann in 1910, and soon after this the development of a purple (‘dark blue’) reaction product was observed between the new compound and amino acids and proteins [1]. This reaction was further investigated by Adberhalden and Schmidt [2]; they tested a large number of compounds, both singly and in combination, in terms of the reaction products formed with ninhydrin. The purple reaction product was observed to form with proteins and polypeptides. Adberhalden and Schmidt also investigated the reactions with amino acids and different types of body fluid, noting that purple reaction products could be formed with sweat [3], and this could contaminate analyses unless it was ensured that reaction vessels, stirrers, etc. were clean. 1.2 The sensitivity of ninhydrin for proteins and amino acids resulted in its use for detection of amino acids by chromatography techniques and for quantitative measurements of amino acid contents. The first published suggestion that ninhydrin could be used for fingerprint detection was made by Oden and von Hofsten in 1954 [4] based on observations of fingerprints accidentally developed on paper items. They proposed a solution of ninhydrin dissolved in acetone and tested it on fingerprints deposited on a range of different types of paper. Oden later patented a refined formulation [5] that also included acetic acid and this soon became adopted worldwide as an alternative to the iodine and silver nitrate techniques then in use for detection of fingerprints on paper.

  • Implications of Nitrogen Nutrition for Grapes, Fermentation and Wine
    242 Implications of nitrogen nutrition Australian Journal of Grape and Wine Research 11, 242–295, 2005 Implications of nitrogen nutrition for grapes, fermentation and wine SALLY-JEAN BELL and PAUL A. HENSCHKE The Australian Wine Research Institute, PO Box 197, Glen Osmond,Adelaide, SA 5064,Australia Corresponding authors: Sally-Jean Bell, facsimile: +61 8 8303 6601, email [email protected]; Paul A. Henschke, facsimile: +61 8 8303 6601, email [email protected] Abstract This review discusses the impacts of nitrogen addition in the vineyard and winery, and establishes the effects that nitrogen has on grape berry and wine composition and the sensory attributes of wine. Nitrogen is the most abundant soil-derived macronutrient in a grapevine, and plays a major role in many of the biological functions and processes of both grapevine and fermentative microorganisms. Manipulation of grapevine nitrogen nutrition has the potential to influence quality components in the grape and, ultimately, the wine. In addition, fermentation kinetics and formation of flavour-active metabolites are also affected by the nitrogen status of the must, which can be further manipulated by addition of nitrogen in the winery. The only consistent effect of nitrogen application in the vineyard on grape berry quality components is an increase in the concentration of the major nitrogenous compounds, such as total nitrogen, total amino acids, arginine, proline and ammonium, and consequently yeast- assimilable nitrogen (YAN). Both the form and amount of YAN have significant implications for wine quality. Low must YAN leads to low yeast populations and poor fermentation vigour, increased risk of sluggish/stuck/slow fermentations, increased production of undesirable thiols (e.g.

  • Saccharomyces Cerevisiae in the Production of Fermented Beverages
    beverages Review Saccharomyces cerevisiae in the Production of Fermented Beverages Graeme M Walker 1,* and Graham G Stewart 2 1 Abertay University, Dundee, Scotland DD1 1HG, UK 2 Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh, Scotland EH14 4AS, UK; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +44-1382-308658 Academic Editor: Edgar Chambers IV Received: 20 October 2016; Accepted: 11 November 2016; Published: 17 November 2016 Abstract: Alcoholic beverages are produced following the fermentation of sugars by yeasts, mainly (but not exclusively) strains of the species, Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The sugary starting materials may emanate from cereal starches (which require enzymatic pre-hydrolysis) in the case of beers and whiskies, sucrose-rich plants (molasses or sugar juice from sugarcane) in the case of rums, or from fruits (which do not require pre-hydrolysis) in the case of wines and brandies. In the presence of sugars, together with other essential nutrients such as amino acids, minerals and vitamins, S. cerevisiae will conduct fermentative metabolism to ethanol and carbon dioxide (as the primary fermentation metabolites) as the cells strive to make energy and regenerate the coenzyme NAD+ under anaerobic conditions. Yeasts will also produce numerous secondary metabolites which act as important beverage flavour congeners, including higher alcohols, esters, carbonyls and sulphur compounds. These are very important in dictating the final flavour and aroma characteristics of beverages such as beer and wine, but also in distilled beverages such as whisky, rum and brandy. Therefore, yeasts are of vital importance in providing the alcohol content and the sensory profiles of such beverages. This Introductory Chapter reviews, in general, the growth, physiology and metabolism of S.

  • Dipeptide Complex with Ninhydrin Facilitated by Gemini (Msm)
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Kinetic study of the metal- dipeptide complex with ninhydrin facilitated by gemini (m-s-m) surfactant micelles Naved Azum1* & Dileep Kumar2,3 The three Gemini (m-s-m; m (head group) = 16 and s (spacer) = 4, 5, 6) surfactants have been synthesized and their impact on reaction of zinc(II)-glycylleucine complex ([Zn(II)-Gly-Leu]+) and ninhydrin were studied at temperature (343 K) and pH (5.0) using spectroscopic method. Infuence of several factors, viz., [Zn(II)-Gly-Leu]+, [ninhydrin], temperature and pH were also carried out on title reaction in geminis. Rates of reaction are the frst-order path in concentration of [Zn(II)-Gly-Leu]+ complex and fractional order path in concentration of ninhydrin. The catalysis of gemini 16-s-16 surfactant micelles was investigated below and above their critical micelle concentration (cmc) value and detailed elaboration were provided in the text. In the present case, rate constants, kψ, increased on increasing geminis ([gemini] are below their cmc, region I) and stayed nearly constant (region II). The shape of (region I and II) surfactants ([gemini] = 0 to 400 × 10 −5 mol dm−3) are similar to a cetyltrimethylammonium bromide, CTAB (single hydrophilic head group and hydrophobic part). Later, a sharp increment in rate was observed with higher [gemini] (region III, (Fig. 5). The study was catalyzed and accelerated quite enough by geminis (at concentrations below their cmc) compared to aqueous. An appropriate mechanism has been proposed for accounting for the distribution of reactants between aqueous and micellar pseudo phases. Resulting kinetic data were used to determine the binding constants of micelle-substrate (KB) and micelle-ninhydrin (KNin).

This new reagent enabled to produce various distinguishable colors with amino acids with different RF values. The detection limits and the binding ability of PDBIQ with amino acids have been calculated. PDBIQ is also able to detect aminoacids from hydrolised seed protein. The title compound also exhibited profound inhibitory action against some gm (+ve) and gm (−ve) bacterial organisms. This paper deals with synthesis, spectroscopic application and biological evaluation of the organic moity.
