In this work, a reliable, simple, fast, inexpensive and robust sample preparation approach for the determination of multiclass polyphenols in wine samples is proposed. The polyphenols selected for this work were gallic acid, (+)-catechin, (-)-epicatechin, caffeic acid, syringic acid, coumaric acid, ferulic acid, trans-resveratrol, quercetin and cinnamic acid. The method is based on QuEChERS (quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged and safe) extraction technique coupled with dispersive solid-phase extraction (d-SPE) clean-up. Under optimized conditions, the analytes were extracted from 5mL wine samples (previously acidified with 1% formic acid) using 2.5mL acetonitrile. For phase separation, 1.5g NaCl and 4g anhydrous MgSO4 were added. Then, a 1mL aliquot of the partitioned supernatant was cleaned-up using d-SPE with a combination of 150mg CaCl2, 50mg primary-secondary amine (PSA) and 50mgC18 as sorbents. A 250μL aliquot of the obtained cleaned extract was concentrated to dryness and taken up with the initial mobile phase previous to liquid chromatography-multi-wavelength detection (LC-MWD). The proposed method provided limits of detection (LODs) ranging from 0.004 to 0.079μgmL(-1) and an inter-day variability below 12% RSD for all analytes in red and white wine samples. Considering external calibration (red wines) and matrix-matched calibration (white wines) as quantification techniques, the overall recoveries (accuracy) of the method ranged between 75.0% and 119.6% for red and white wine samples, respectively. The developed method was applied for the determination of polyphenols in 10 wines produced in Argentina. Nine phenolic compounds were determined, at concentrations above detectable levels in the method. The maximum concentrations corresponded to (-)-epicatechin in white wines, while gallic acid and (+)-catechin were the most abundant in red wines.

Article Synopsis
  • Cork is primarily used for wine bottle stoppers, but it can contain 2,4,6-trichloroanisole, which causes a musty odor that negatively affects wine quality and leads to financial losses.
  • The presence of yellow stain in cork indicates a degradation linked to higher microbial populations, particularly filamentous fungi that break down lignin, and this microbiota contributes to the formation of chlorophenols and chloroanisoles.
  • Research identified specific fungal and bacterial species associated with yellow stain and demonstrated that certain strains can convert p-hydroxybenzoate into phenol, which can then be chlorinated, potentially leading to the development of 2,4,6-trichlorophenol.

Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a mycotoxin, a common contaminant of grapes and their derivatives, such as wine, and classified as possible human carcinogen (group 2B) by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC). is the main producer of OTA in grapes. The stability of the molecule and the poor availability of detoxification systems makes the control of in vineyards the main strategy used to reduce OTA contamination risk.

The ingestion of food contaminated with citrinin (CIT) poses a variety of health risks to humans and animals. The immunogens (CIT-COOH-BSA, CIT-H-BSA) and detection antigen (CIT-COOH-OVA, CIT-H-OVA) were synthesised using the active ester method (-COOH) and formaldehyde addition method (-H). A hybridoma cell line (3G5) that secretes anti-CIT monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) was screened via CIT-H-BSA immunisation of mice, cell fusion, and ELISA screening technology.

Fumonisins, a class of mycotoxins predominantly produced by species, represent a major threat to food safety and public health due to their widespread occurrence in staple crops including peanuts, wine, rice, sorghum, and mainly in maize and maize-based food and feed products. Although fumonisins occur in different groups, the fumonisin B series, particularly fumonisin B1 (FB1) and fumonisin B2 (FB2), are the most prevalent and toxic in this group of mycotoxins and are of public health significance due to the many debilitating human and animal diseases and mycotoxicosis they cause and their classification as by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) as a class 2B carcinogen (probable human carcinogen). This has made them one of the most regulated mycotoxins, with stringent regulatory limits on their levels in food and feeds destined for human and animal consumption, especially maize and maize-based products.
