Summary: The aim of this study was to monitor and evaluate the content of eight biogenic amines (BAs) in 232 samples of wines produced in the Central European region (Zone B). PUT, HIS, TYM, and PEA were the most frequently detected BAs in all tested wine samples. The BA content in red wines was generally higher than in rose and white wines, with 9% of the red wine samples having histamine concentrations above the recommended limit of 10 mg/L.

Summary: In this study, a method for quantifying nine biogenic amines in wine using ion chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (IC-MS/MS) without derivatization was developed. The method featured good linearity, low limits of detection and quantification, and high recoveries. The levels of biogenic amines in commercially available Chinese wines varied significantly based on geographical origin. The exposure to biogenic amines in wines was found to be lower than the recommended level for healthy individuals but could lead to symptoms in susceptible individuals.

Summary: Biogenic amines (BAs) are food contaminants that can cause poisoning or allergic reactions. Common BAs found in food include histamine, tyramine, and putrescine. The number of poisoning cases related to BAs in food has increased, emphasizing the need for BAs detection to ensure food safety. Various analytical techniques and sample treatment methods are used for BAs detection.

Summary: Identification of core functional microorganisms is crucial for understanding the ecological and functional processes in food fermentations. This study explored the role of Saccharopolyspora in huangjiu fermentation and discovered its significant contributions to the metabolites of huangjiu. Co-fermentation of Saccharopolyspora with Saccharomyces cerevisiae resulted in improved fermentation rate and flavor quality compared to other combinations. Moreover, Saccharopolyspora was found to have the ability to degrade biogenic amines, reducing their content in fermented food products.

Summary: In this study, we demonstrated that bentonites can effectively reduce the content of biogenic amines (BAs) in wine, especially putrescine. Kinetic and thermodynamic studies were conducted on two commercially available bentonites, which achieved approximately 60% removal of putrescine through physisorption mechanism at an optimal concentration of 0.40 g dm-3. Both bentonites also showed promising results in more complex systems, although the adsorption of putrescine was lower due to competition with other molecules typically present in wines, such as proteins and polyphenols. Nevertheless, we managed to reduce the putrescine content below 10 ppm in both red and white wines.

Summary: This study investigated the effect of cold plasma on the phenolic compound and biogenic amine contents of red wine for the first time. The results showed that cold plasma treatment increased the content of phenolic compounds and reduced the concentration of biogenic amines in the wine. These findings may contribute to the development of cold plasma as a potential alternative method for wine and alcoholic beverages preservation.

Summary: Prokaryotic laccases from lactic acid bacteria, especially Pediococcus species, are emerging biocatalysts capable of oxidizing both conventional and non-conventional substrates, as well as degrading biogenic amines. They exhibit good thermal stability and prefer an acidic environment, with sigmoidal kinetic activity. Structural analysis reveals unique features not previously observed in well-studied laccases, suggesting potential implications for biotechnological applications and engineering of lactic acid bacteria.

Summary: This study investigates the variability of Saccharomyces cerevisiae during spontaneous fermentation of Garnacha grape musts from a Pago winery in eastern Spain. Yeast selection was based on growth, fermentative behavior, and their influence on wine aroma and polyphenolic composition. Yeast identification was performed using ITS analysis and Hinfl mDNA restriction profile analysis. The isolated strains were characterized through laboratory-scale fermentations, determining polyphenolic and volatile compound composition, as well as sensory attributes. Among the ten S. cerevisiae strains, strain 22H exhibited fast growth, produced wines with moderate ethanol concentration and low volatile acidity, and received the highest scores for color, aroma, and sensory attributes.
