Composition of volatile compounds and concentrations of sugars and organic acids were studied in apple ciders produced with <i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i> and <i>Schizosaccharomyces pombe</i> yeasts using eleven different ...

<p>The profile of volatile compounds was investigated using headspace solid-phase microextraction coupled with gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (HS-SPME–GC–MS) during bilberry juice fermentation with nine non-Saccharomyces ...

<p><br></p><p>The phenolic compounds in juices and ciders made with Saccharomyces cerevisiae or Schizosaccharomyces pombe from eleven Finnish apple cultivars were analyzed using liquid chromatographic and mass spectrometric methods combined with multivariate data analysis. In general, the ciders contained less phenolic compounds than corresponding apple juices. In the studied apple juices and ciders, hydroxycinnamic acids were the most predominant, accounting for around 80% of total phenolic compounds. Apple juices contained more flavonol glycosides and dihydrochalcones whereas cider processing resulted in increased amount of free hydroxycinnamic acids. The contents of individual phenolic compounds were more dependent on the apple cultivars than the yeast species. Certain cultivars contained remarkably higher contents of dihydrochalcones and hydroxycinnamic acids when comparing with other cultivars. Ciders made using S. pombe remained higher contents of procyanidins and (+)-catechin while S. cerevisiae ciders contained higher individual hydroxycinnamic acids, such as 5-O-caffeoylquinic acid, 4-O-caffeoylquinic acid, 3-O-p-coumaroylquinic acid, and 4-O-p-coumaroylquinic acid.</p>...

<p> This work investigated the impact of malolactic fermentation on the metabolomic profile of sea buckthorn juice to optimize the fermentation process for flavor modification. Six strains of L. plantarum were used with varied pH of the juice, cell acclimation, and fermentation time. ¹H-NOESY spectra were acquired from fresh and fermented juices with a total of 46 metabolites identified. Less sugars and quinic acid were metabolized at pH 2.7 while oxidation of ascorbic acid was reduced at pH 3.5. l-Malic acid, essential amino acids, and nucleosides were consumed early during fermentation while sugars in general were consumed later in the fermentation. If deacidification is the main target of fermentation, strains that produce less acids and ferment less sugars, shorter fermentation time, and lower starter pH should be used. Higher starter pH and longer fermentation time promote formation of antimicrobial compounds and potentially increase antioxidant stability. <br></p>...
