This paper deals with the determination of the fourteen naturally occurring elements of the lanthanide series in red wine. Ultrasound (US) was used for sample preparation prior lanthanides determination using ICP-MS. Flow injection (FI) and pneumatic nebulization/aerosol desolvation were used for nebulization of aliquots of 50 μL of sample and its subsequent transportation to plasma. Sample preparation procedures, matrix interference and time of sonication were evaluated. Better results for lanthanides in red wine were obtained by sonication with US probe for 90 s and sample 10-fold diluted. The limits of detection of La, Ce, Nd, Sm, Gd, Pr, Eu, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Lu and Yb were 6.57, 10.8, 9.97, 9.38, 2.71, 1.29, 1.22, 0.52, 2.35, 0.96, 2.30, 0.45, 0.24 and 1.35 ng L(-1), respectively. Red wines of different varieties from three countries of South America were discriminated according to the country of origin by means of multivariate analysis of lanthanides concentration.

The use of nanozymes for electrochemical detection in the food industry is an intriguing area of research. In this study, we synthesized a laccase mimicking the MnO@CeO nanozyme using a simple hydrothermal method, which was characterized by modern analytical methods, such as transmission electron microscope (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), etc. We found that the addition of MnO significantly increased the laccase-like activity by 300% compared to CeO nanorods.

The winemaking process generates huge amounts of waste every year. Fermented grape pomace, the major by-waste product, holds significant value due to its chemical composition and technological properties. In this study a multi-omics approach was employed for the detailed molecular characterization of fermented grape pomace from Montepulciano grape, a widely used Italian red grape variety.

Purpose: To evaluate the effects of various beverages on surface roughness and microhardness of PEEK and PEKK polymers.
Methods: Rectangular-shaped PEEK and PEKK polymers were fabricated and examined in the study. The specimens were immersed for 28 days at 37°C in red wine, coffee, and distilled water.

This study assessed the susceptibility to staining and surface roughness of white-spot lesions (WSLs) treated with resin infiltration (RIT) and microabrasion (MA) under simulated aging through thermocycling in red wine. Seventy-eight extracted human premolars with artificial WSLs were divided into three groups: untreated WSLs (control), RIT-treated (ICON, DMG), and MA-treated (Opalustre, Ultradent). Each group was further split: one subgroup immersed in artificial saliva and the other thermocycled in red wine.

Resveratrol and its glucoside, piceid, are the primary stilbenes present in wine. These compounds are well known for their pharmaceutical properties. However, these compounds can undergo chemical transformations in wines, such as polymerization in the presence of metallic reagents.
