Natural Occurrence of Ochratoxin A in Musts, Wines and Grape Vine Fruits from Grapes Harvested in Argentina
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this study, ochratoxin A (OTA) occurrence in Argentinean musts, wines and dried vine fruits was evaluated, alongside with the performance of OchraStar(TM) columns for OTA extraction. In all the three matrices analyzed, the OchraStar(TM) columns showed good performance. The analysis of natural occurrence of OTA in the red must and the red wine samples showed low incidence with low levels of mean OTA contamination (0.12 ng/mL and 0.37 ng/mL, respectively), while 60% of the dried vine fruit samples were contaminated with OTA, in levels ranging from 0.26 to 20.28 ng/g.

Diversity of black Aspergilli and mycotoxin risks in grape, wine and dried vine fruits
Mycotoxin risk in the grape product chain is primarily due to ochratoxin A (OTA) occurrence in wine and dried vine fruits. Aspergillus carbonarius and the A. niger group are the main agents of Aspergillus bunch rot of grape, and they, especially A. carbonarius, are responsible for OTA contamination worldwide. Fumonisin B2 (FB2) represents an additional potential mycotoxin risk in the grape-wine...
متن کاملDetermination of ochratoxin A in grapes, dried vine fruits, and winery byproducts by high-performance liquid chromatography with fluorometric detection (HPLC-FLD) and immunoaffinity cleanup.
A liquid chromatographic method for the determination of ochratoxin A in grapes, dried vine fruits, and winery byproducts was developed. A mixture of either acetonitrile/water or acetonitrile/water/methanol was used as an extraction solvent mixture. After immunoaffinity column cleanup, the final extract was analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with a fluorometric detector (...
متن کاملA rapid method for quantifying aroma precursors: Application to grape extract, musts and wines made from several varieties
This paper reports on a quick and simple method for reliably quantifying aroma precursors in grape extract, musts and wines of different grape varieties. The method, which is intended mainly for use by wineries and analytical laboratories, is based on isolation of terpenyl-b-D-glycosides through selective retention on a C18 reversed-phase column, followed by hydrolysis to liberate terpenes, yie...
متن کاملTitle: “The role of yeast in grape flavor development during fermentation: The example of Sauvignon blanc”
• We know that aromatic compounds from the grapes themselves are important for quality and regional character. But whereas some varieties (like the Muscats) produce musts with similar aromas to those of the resulting wines, the musts of the majority of varieties are practically odorless. This is true for Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Sauvignon blanc, Semillon, Pinot noir, Gamay, Chardonnay...
متن کاملBiodegradation of ochratoxin A by Aspergillus section Nigri species isolated from French grapes: a potential means of ochratoxin A decontamination in grape juices and musts.
Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a very dangerous mycotoxin, the presence of which is often reported in different foods, as well as in beverages such as grapes, grape juices and wines. Detoxifying these products is therefore of prime importance in protecting consumer health, and biological approaches have been the most promising methods. In this report, 40 isolates representing the black apergilli species...
