In this study a specific taste modulating flavour-ingredient, N-gluconyl [corrected] ethanolamine, was determined in two Beerenauslese wines using two different LC-MS techniques. For a first screening LC-MS(2) on an ion-trap mass spectrometer with negative electrospray ionization (ESI(-)) was applied. Sensitivity (and selectivity) was successfully increased approx. 10-fold by post-column addition of chloroform to form [M+Cl](-) species. In a second step LC-MS(2) on a triple-quadrupole mass spectrometer in accurate mass mode confirmed the presence of N-gluconyl [corrected] ethanolamine in wine. The application of the right MS(2) transitions for an unambiguous identification is discussed. N-Gluconyl [corrected] ethanolamine concentrations in the wines were found to be 1.1 and 4.0 microg/l.

Catalytic performance of lignin peroxidase in a novel reverse micelle.

To enhance the catalytic activity of lignin peroxidase (LiP) in a reverse micelle, a synthesized two-tail nonionic surfactant N-gluconyl glutamic acid didecyl ester (GGDE) was used to formulate a novel reverse micelle. Based on the LiP catalyzed oxidation of veratryl alcohol (VA) in this novel GGDE/TritonX-100-cyclohexane-H(2)O reverse micelle, the effects of the size of the reverse micelle, the buffer pH, and the concentration of H(2)O(2) on the catalytic activity of LiP were investigated. Under the optimized conditions, the catalytic efficiency of LiP in the GGDE/TritonX-100 reverse micelle was 40 times higher than that in the AOT reverse micelle.
