Int J Food Microbiol 2024; 412:110566. [PMID: 38241754 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijfoodmicro.2024.110566] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2023] [Revised: 12/22/2023] [Accepted: 01/03/2024] [Indexed: 01/21/2024]
Abstract
Yeasts play a crucial role in transforming apple must into cider. While Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Sc) has been traditionally associated to cider fermentations worldwide, cryotolerant species such as Saccharomyces uvarum (Su) as well as natural S. cerevisiae × S. uvarum (Sc×Su) hybrids have also been detected in ciders fermented at low temperatures. This study aimed to evaluate the ability of two Patagonian cryotolerant yeast strains (Su and Se) and their interspecific hybrids with a Sc to conduct handcrafted apple must fermentations and a second fermentation process (champenoise method). The main chemical parameters and sensory quality of the resulting sparkling beverages was also analysed. Firstly, Sc×Se and Sc×Su hybrids were evaluated in their fermentative features at laboratory scale. Hybrids were compared with their respective parental species evidencing significant differences in the physicochemical and aromatic composition of the obtained base ciders. Both Su parental strain and the hybrid Sc×Se were selected for performing pilot scale fermentations (250 L) using natural (non-sterilized) apple juice at two different temperatures: 20 °C and 13 °C. Sc parental strain was also evaluated for comparative purposes. All base ciders obtained were then subjected to a second fermentation. A high implantation capacity of both Su and the hybrid was evidenced at the lowest evaluated temperature, while commercial Sc strain was not detected at the final fermentation stage, independently from the temperature. All sparkling ciders exhibited distinct physicochemical profiles. Ciders inoculated with commercial Sc (but effectively fermented with local Sc strains) allowed the development of malolactic fermentation (MLF) in processes carried out at both temperatures. Contrarily, no MLF was observed in ciders inoculated with either Su or the hybrid. Sparkling ciders fermented with Su displayed the highest concentrations of 2-phenylethanol and 2-phenylethyl acetate, regardless of the fermentation temperature. Conversely, ciders fermented with the hybrid at 20 °C exhibited the highest concentrations of ethyl octanoate and ethyl decanoate, contributing to floral and fruity notes in the beverage. Sensory analysis conducted with untrained individuals revealed a preference for sparkling ciders produced with the hybrid strain at both 20 °C and 13 °C. The cider fermented at 20 °C exhibited floral notes, sweetness, and a full body, while ciders fermented at 13 °C displayed moderate acidity and a well-balanced profile. Conversely, a trained panel described the cider fermented at 20 °C with Su as a fruity and acidic beverage, whereas the ciders fermented at 13 °C exhibited intense bitterness and acidity. This study highlights the potential of cryotolerant Saccharomyces species and hybrids in the development of new starter cultures for producing artisanal sparkling ciders with distinctive properties.

Abstract
As a metaphor, lemons get a bad rap; however the proverb 'if life gives you lemons, make lemonade' is often used in a motivational context. The same could be said of Hanseniaspora in winemaking. Despite its predominance in vineyards and grape must, this lemon-shaped yeast is underappreciated in terms of its contribution to the overall sensory profile of fine wine. Species belonging to this apiculate yeast are known for being common isolates not just on grape berries, but on many other fruits. They play a critical role in the early stages of a fermentation and can influence the quality of the final product. Their deliberate addition within mixed-culture fermentations shows promise in adding to the complexity of a wine and thus provide sensorial benefits. Hanseniaspora species are also key participants in the fermentations of a variety of other foodstuffs ranging from chocolate to apple cider. Outside of their role in fermentation, Hanseniaspora species have attractive biotechnological possibilities as revealed through studies on biocontrol potential, use as a whole-cell biocatalyst and important interactions with Drosophila flies. The growing amount of 'omics data on Hanseniaspora is revealing interesting features of the genus that sets it apart from the other Ascomycetes. This review collates the fields of research conducted on this apiculate yeast genus.

Abstract
Flavor is an essential element of food quality. Flavor can be improved by adding flavoring substances or via microbial fermentation to impart aroma. Aroma-producing yeasts are a group of microorganisms that can produce aroma compounds, providing a strong aroma to foods and thus playing a great role in the modern fermentation industry. The physiological characteristics of aroma-producing yeast, including alcohol tolerance, acid tolerance, and salt tolerance, are introduced in this article, beginning with their origins and biological properties. The main mechanism of aroma-producing yeast is then analyzed based on its physiological roles in the fermentation process. Functional enzymes such as proteases, lipases, and glycosidase are released by yeast during the fermentation process. Sugars, fats, and proteins in the environment can be degraded by these enzymes via pathways such as glycolysis, methoxylation, the Ehrlich pathway, and esterification, resulting in the production of various aromatic esters (such as ethyl acetate and ethyl caproate), alcohols (such as phenethyl alcohol), and terpenes (such as monoterpenes, sesquiterpenes, and squalene). Furthermore, yeast cells can serve as cell synthesis factories, wherein specific synthesis pathways can be introduced into cells using synthetic biology techniques to achieve high-throughput production. In addition, the applications of aroma yeast in the food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries are summarized, and the future development trends of aroma yeasts are discussed to provide a theoretical basis for their application in the food fermentation industry.

Abstract
Perry is a beverage obtained by fermentation of pear juice, popular in the North Hemisphere. In Argentina it is an emerging market, particularly in the Patagonian region. The aim of this work is to describe and to evaluate the spoilage yeasts associated to six perry samples showing signs of microbiological contamination from a local craft perry company in North Patagonian region. Eighteen yeasts were isolated from four of the six perry samples where Brettanomyces custersianus, Brettanomyces bruxellensis and Zygosaccharomyces parabailii were identified. The growth capacity of these isolates in the presence of antimicrobial agents (sulfite and potassium sorbate) was analyzed in solid media. Growth parameters in sterile perry must was evaluated and the production of undesirable compounds were evaluated, products were characterized in terms of their aromatic and physicochemical features. The yeasts Z. parabailii NPCC1791 was able to grow on plates containing sulfite concentrations of up to 4 mM and produced high methanol concentrations in perry. Additionally, B. bruxellensis NPPC1792 was able to produce methanol as well as high concentrations of volatile phenols including 4-ethylphenol and 4-ethylguaiacol. These results demonstrate the potential of these species as perry contaminants. Given the lack of studies describing the contaminating yeasts in perry production, this work represents the first report about perry spoilage yeasts in Argentina, with this knowledge, control strategies can be developed to prevent microbiological contamination and minimize product loss.

Abstract
In this study, 21 strains of aroma-producing yeast were isolated from Sichuan paocai juice of farmers in western, eastern and southern Sichuan. One strain, Y3, with the best aroma-producing characteristics, was screened using an olfactory method and a total ester titration method, and was identified as Wickerhamomyces anomalus. The total ester content of Y3 fermentation broth was as high as 1.22 g/L, and there was no white colonies or film on the surface. Meanwhile, the Y3 strain could tolerate 14% salt concentration conditions and grow well in a pH range of 3-4. Through sensory analysis, the fermented mustard with a ratio of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum to Y3 of 1:1 showed the highest overall acceptability. Ethyl acetate with its fruit and wine flavor was also detected in the fermented Sichuan paocai juice with a mixed bacteria ratio of 1:1, analyzed with SPME-GC-MS technology, as well as phenylethyl alcohol, isobutyl alcohol, isothiocyanate eaters, myrcene and dimethyl disulfide. These contributed greatly to the unique flavor of Sichuan paocai. In general, Wickerhamomyces anomalus Y3 enhanced the aroma of the fermented Sichuan paocai.

Abstract
Traditional fermented foods are favored by people around the world for their positive health and taste advantages. Many of the fermented foods, including Chinese traditional fermented foods, are produced through mixed-culture fermentation. Apart from reducing the formation of harmful compounds such as ethyl carbamate (EC) and biogenic amines (BAs) during food fermentation, it is also difficult to precisely control and regulate the fermentation process based on the control of environmental conditions alone, due to the complex microbiota and an unclarified fermentation mechanism. In this review, key microorganisms involved in Chinese fermented foods such as baijiu, soy sauce, and vinegar production are elaborated, and relations between microbial composition and the aroma or quality of food are discussed. This review focuses on the interpretation of functions and roles of beneficial (functional) microorganisms that participate in food fermentation and the discussion of the possibilities of the synergistic use of functional microorganisms to improve the safety and quality of Chinese fermented foods. Conducting work toward the isolation of beneficial microorganisms is a challenge for modern food fermentation technology. Thus, methods for the isolation and mutagenesis of functional microbial strains for synergistic food fermentation are summarized. Finally, the limitations and future prospects of the use of functional microorganisms in traditional Chinese fermented foods are reviewed. This review provides an overview of the applications of synergistic fermentation with functional microorganisms in the improvement of the safety or sensory qualities of fermented foods.

Abstract
Mixed fermentation using saccharomyces cerevisiae and non-saccharomyces cerevisiae has become one of the main research strategies to improve wine aroma. Hence, this study applied the mixed fermentation technique using Pichia kudriavzevii and Saccharomyces cerevisiae to brew Cabernet Sauvignon wine and to investigate the effects of inoculation timing and inoculation ratio on the polyphenolics, antioxidant activity and aroma of the resulting wine. The results showed that mixed fermentation significantly improved the amounts of flavan-3-ols. In particular, S1:5 had the highest amounts of (-)-catechin and procyanidin B1 (73.23 mg/L and 46.59 mg/L), while S1:10 had the highest (-)-epicatechin content (57.95 mg/L). Meanwhile, S1:10 showed the strongest FRAP, CUPRAC and ABTS + activities (31.46 %, 25.38 % and 13.87 % higher than that of CK, respectively). In addition, mixed fermentation also increased the amounts of phenylethanol, isoamyl alcohol and ethyl esters, which enhanced the rose-like and fruity flavor of wine. This work used a friendly non-saccharomyces cerevisiae alongside appropriate inoculation strategies to provide an alternative approach for improved wine aroma and phenolic profile.

Abstract
Saccharomyces kudriavzevii is a cold-tolerant species identified as a good alternative for industrial winemaking. Although S. kudriavzevii has never been found in winemaking, its co-occurrence with Saccharomyces cerevisiae in Mediterranean oaks is well documented. This sympatric association is believed to be possible due to the different growth temperatures of the two yeast species. However, the mechanisms behind the cold tolerance of S. kudriavzevii are not well understood. In this work, we propose the use of a dynamic genome-scale model to compare the metabolic routes used by S. kudriavzevii at two temperatures, 25°C and 12°C, to decipher pathways relevant to cold tolerance. The model successfully recovered the dynamics of biomass and external metabolites and allowed us to link the observed phenotype with exact intracellular pathways. The model predicted fluxes that are consistent with previous findings, but it also led to novel results which we further confirmed with intracellular metabolomics and transcriptomic data. The proposed model (along with the corresponding code) provides a comprehensive picture of the mechanisms of cold tolerance that occur within S. kudriavzevii. The proposed strategy offers a systematic approach to explore microbial diversity from extracellular fermentation data at low temperatures. IMPORTANCE Nonconventional yeasts promise to provide new metabolic pathways for producing industrially relevant compounds and tolerating specific stressors such as cold temperatures. The mechanisms behind the cold tolerance of S. kudriavzevii or its sympatric relationship with S. cerevisiae in Mediterranean oaks are not well understood. This study proposes a dynamic genome-scale model to investigate metabolic pathways relevant to cold tolerance. The predictions of the model would indicate the ability of S. kudriavzevii to produce assimilable nitrogen sources from extracellular proteins present in its natural niche. These predictions were further confirmed with metabolomics and transcriptomic data. This finding suggests that not only the different growth temperature preferences but also this proteolytic activity may contribute to the sympatric association with S. cerevisiae. Further exploration of these natural adaptations could lead to novel engineering targets for the biotechnological industry.

Abstract
Kluyveromyces marxianus yeasts represent a valuable industry alternative due to their biotechnological potential to produce aromatic compounds. 2-phenylethanol and 2-phenylethylacetate are significant aromatic compounds widely used in food and cosmetics due to their pleasant odor. Natural obtention of these compounds increases their value, and because of this, bioprocesses such as de novo synthesis has become of great significance. However, the relationship between aromatic compound production and yeast's genetic diversity has yet to be studied. In the present study, the analysis of the genetic diversity in K. marxianus isolated from the natural fermentation of Agave duranguensis for Mezcal elaboration is presented. The results of strains in a haploid and diploid state added to the direct relationship between the mating type locus MAT with metabolic characteristics are studied. Growth rate, assimilate carbohydrates (glucose, lactose, and chicory inulin), and the production of aromatic compounds such as ethyl acetate, isoamyl acetate, isoamyl alcohol, 2-phenylethyl butyrate and phenylethyl propionate and the diversity in terms of the output of 2-phenylethanol and 2-phenylethylacetate by de novo synthesis were determinate, obtaining maximum concentrations of 51.30 and 60.39 mg/L by ITD0049 and ITD 0136 yeasts respectively.

Abstract
Ethanol tolerance is crucial for the oenological yeasts. Rosa roxburghii Tratt, a Rosaceae plant native to China, is rich in nutritional and medicinal ingredients. In this study, ethanol-tolerant non-Saccharomyces yeasts were screened, and their oenological properties were further evaluated. Three ethanol-tolerant yeast strains (designated as C6, F112, and F15), which could tolerate 12% (v/v) ethanol treatment, were isolated from R. roxburghii, and identified as Candida tropicalis, Pichia guilliermondii, and Wickerhamomyces anomalus, respectively. The winemaking condition tolerances of these ethanol-tolerant yeast strains were similar to those of Saccharomyces cerevisiae X16. However, their growth, sugar metabolic performance and sulphureted hydrogen activities, were different. The β-glucosidase production ability of strain W. anomalus F15 was lower than that of S. cerevisiae X16, and strains of C. tropicalis C6 and P. guilliermondii F112 were similar to S. cerevisiae X16. Electronic sensory properties of the R. roxburghii wines fermented using ethanol-tolerant yeasts together with S. cerevisiae showed no significant differences. However, the mixed inoculation of the ethanol-tolerant yeast strains with S. cerevisiae could regulate the volatile aroma characteristics of the fermented R. roxburghii wine, enriching and enhancing the aroma flavor. Therefore, the selected ethanol-tolerant yeasts have the potential for application in the production of unique R. roxburghii wine.

The Influence of Pichia kluyveri Addition on the Aroma Profile of a Kombucha Tea Fermentation. Foods 2023; 12:foods12101938. [PMID: 37238757 DOI: 10.3390/foods12101938] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2023] [Revised: 04/24/2023] [Accepted: 05/04/2023] [Indexed: 05/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Traditional kombucha is a functional tea-based drink that has gained attention as a low or non-alcoholic beverage. The fermentation is conducted by a community of different microorganisms, collectively called SCOBY (Symbiotic Culture of Bacteria and Yeast) and typically consists of different acetic acid bacteria and fermenting yeast, and in some cases lactic acid bacteria that would convert the sugars into organic acids-mostly acetic acid. In this study, the effect of including a Pichia kluyveri starter culture in a kombucha fermentation was investigated. P. kluyveri additions led to a quicker accumulation of acetic acid along with the production of several acetate esters including isoamyl acetate and 2-phenethyl acetate. A subsequent tasting also noted a significant increase in the fruitiness of the kombucha. The significant contribution to the aroma content shows the promise of this yeast in future microbial formulations for kombucha fermentations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Laimao baijiu is a typical soy-sauce aroma-type baijiu in China. Amino acids are non-volatile compounds in baijiu and are beneficial to human health. Aroma is one of the important indicators that are used to evaluate the quality of baijiu. The interaction between aroma-active compounds and non-volatile compounds can also affect the release of aroma compounds. In this study, we identified the active-aroma compounds and amino acids in Laimao baijiu by stir bar sorptive extraction (SBSE), gas chromatography-olfactometry (GC-O), gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), and ultra-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS). The interaction between amino acids and key esters was investigated by sensory analysis and partition coefficients. RESULTS A total of 63 aroma compounds and 21 amino acids were identified. Twenty-one esters were identified from them as major aroma-active ester compounds with odor activity values ≥ 1. Finally, sensory analysis revealed that l-alanine had a significant effect on the strength of the aromas of esters, suggesting that low concentrations of amino acids were more likely to promote the release of esters and high concentrations were more likely to inhibit this. The partition coefficient can be a good explanation for this phenomenon. CONCLUSION l-Alanine can significantly affect the aroma intensity of key ester aroma compounds in Laimao baijiu, and the effects of different concentrations of amino acids are different. This work shows that amino acids, as non-volatile compounds, have a regulatory effect on the release of aroma compounds in alcoholic beverages, which may provide new technical support for the aroma modulation of alcoholic beverages. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Biofilm plays an important role in resisting the adverse environment, improving the taste and texture, and promoting the synthesis of flavor substances. However, to date, the findings on the effect of biofilm and dominating bacteria Bacillus on the ester synthesis in the Baijiu field have been largely lacked. Therefore, the objectives of the present study were to primarily isolate biofilm-producing microbes in the fermented grains, evaluate the stress tolerance capacity, and unveil the effect of biofilm and co-culture with Bacillus on the ester synthesis in the strong flavor Baijiu. Results indicated that after isolation and evaluation of stress-tolerance capacity, bacterial strain BG-5 and yeast strains YM-21 and YL-10 were demonstrated as mediate or strong biofilm-producing microbes and were identified as Bacillus velezensis, Saccharomycopsis fibuligera, and Zygosaccharomyces bailii, respectively. Solid phase microextraction/gas chromatography-mass spectrometer indicated that biofilm could enhance the diversity of esters while reduce the contents of ester. The scanning electron microscopy showed an inhibitory effect of B. velezensis on the growth of S. fibuligera, further restraining the production of esters. Taken together, both biofilm and B. velezensis influence the ester synthesis process. The present study is the first to reveal the biofilm-producing microorganisms in fermented grains and to preliminarily investigate the effect of biofilm on the ester synthesis in the Baijiu field.

Abstract
Ethyl acetate is an important organic solvent and currently produced from fossil carbon resources. Microbial synthesis of this ester from sugar-rich waste could be an interesting alternative. Therefore, synthesis of ethyl acetate by Kluyveromyces marxinanus DSM 5422 from delactosed whey permeate (DWP) was studied in an aerated stirred bioreactor at 40 °C. DWP is mainly composed of residual lactose and minerals. The minerals inhibited yeast growth, as witnessed by an increased lag period, a reduced growth rate, and an extended process duration. All experiments were therefore carried out with diluted DWP. In a series of batch experiments, the pH of iron-deficient DWP medium varied between 4.8 and 5.9. The pH of the cultivation medium significantly influenced cell growth and product syntheses, with the highest ethyl acetate yield of 0.347 g g-1 and lowest by-product formation achieved at pH 5.1. It is likely that this effect is due to pH-dependent iron chelation, which affects the iron bioavailability and the intracellular iron content, thus affecting growth and metabolite synthesis. The viability of yeast cells was always high despite the harsh conditions in DWP medium, which enabled extended usage of the biomass in repeated-batch and fed-batch cultivations. These two culture techniques increased the volume of DWP processed per time by 32 and 84% for the repeated-batch and the fed-batch cultivation, respectively, without a drop of the ester yield. KEY POINTS: • Delactosed whey permeate was converted to ethyl acetate with a high rate and yield. • The formation of ethyl acetate in DWP medium at iron limitation is pH-dependent. • Highly active yeasts from batch processes enabled extension as fed and repeated batch.

Abstract
The focus of the study was to characterize the bioprocess kinetics and secondary metabolites production in the novel microbial co-cultivation system involving Streptomyces noursei ATCC 11455 (the producer of an antifungal substance known as nystatin) and Aspergillus terreus ATCC 20542 (the source of lovastatin, a cholesterol-lowering drug). The investigated “A. terreus vs. S. noursei” stirred tank bioreactor co-cultures allowed for the concurrent development and observable biosynthetic activity of both species. In total, the production profiles of 50 secondary metabolites were monitored over the course of the study. The co-cultures were found to be effective in terms of enhancing the biosynthesis of several metabolic products, including mevinolinic acid, an acidic form of lovastatin. This work provided a methodological example of assessing the activity of a given strain in the co-culture by using the substrates which can be metabolized exclusively by this strain. Since S. noursei was shown to be incapable of lactose utilization, the observed changes in lactose levels were attributed to A. terreus and thus confirmed its viability. The study was complemented with the comparative microscopic observations of filamentous morphologies exhibited in the co-cultures and corresponding monocultures.

Abstract
The use of yeasts as starter cultures was boosted with the emergence of large-scale fermentations in the 20th century. Since then, Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been the most common and widely used microorganism in the food industry. However, Candida species have also been used as an adjuvant in cheese production or as starters for coffee, cocoa, vegetable, meat, beer, and wine fermentations. A thorough screening of candidate Candida is sometimes performed to obtain the best performing strains to enhance specific features. Some commonly selected species include C. pulcherrima (teleomorph Metschnikowia pulcherrima) (wine), C. parapsilosis (teleomorph Monilia parapsilosis) (coffee), C. famata (teleomorph Debaryomyces hansenii) (cheese), and C. zeylanoides (teleomorph Kurtzmaniella zeylanoides) and C. norvegensis (teleomorph Pichia norvegensis) (cocoa). These species are associated with the production of key metabolites (food aroma formation) and different enzymes. However, safety-associated selection criteria are often neglected. It is widely known that some Candida species are opportunistic human pathogens, with important clinical relevance. Here, the physiology and metabolism of Candida species are addressed, initially emphasizing their clinical aspects and potential pathogenicity. Then, Candida species used in food fermentations and their functional roles are reported. We recommended that Candida not be used as food cultures if safety assessments are not performed. Some safety features are highlighted to help researchers choose methods and selection criteria.

Microbial and Chemical Dynamics during Marula Wine Fermentation. BEVERAGES 2022. [DOI: 10.3390/beverages8030050] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
Marula wine is traditionally produced through a spontaneous fermentation process and has a huge economic potential in Africa. The current study investigated the contributing microbiota and the metabolites produced during the wine fermentation process. Microbial communities were analyzed by selective cultivation and identified by biotyping and rDNA sequencing. Sugars and volatile compounds were determined with the high performance liquid chromatography and gas chromatography, respectively. Different Lactobacillus spp. were present throughout the fermentation process but dominated the earlier stages of fermentation, together with non-Saccharomyces yeasts, whereas Saccharomyces cerevisiae and acetic acid bacteria dominated the latter stages. Sucrose, glucose and fructose were detected during the early stages, while ethanol and butanol were present during the latter stages of fermentation. Interestingly, acetic acid and formic acid were detected in relatively high amounts at the latter stages of fermentation. Lactobacillus spp. and S. cerevisiae were identified as the primary contributing microbiota, and Acetobacter aceti and Acetobacter pasteuriannus were associated with the off taste and spoilage of the marula wine.

Abstract
During the fermentation of cocoa beans, the yeasts produce volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Through reactions associated with amino acid metabolism, yeasts generate important aroma precursors as acetate esters and fatty acid ethyl esters are essential in developing fruity flavors and aromas in the final product (usually chocolate). In addition, some yeasts may have pectinolytic and antifungal activity, which is desirable in the post-harvest process of cocoa. The main yeast species in cocoa fermentation are Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Pichia kudriavzevii, and Hanseniaspora opuntiae. These produce higher alcohols and acetyl-CoA to make acetate–esters, compounds that produce floral and fruity notes. However, there are still controversies in scientific reports because some mention that there are no significant differences in the sensory characteristics of the final product. Others mention that the fermentation of cocoa by yeast has a significant influence on improving the sensory attributes of the final product. However, using yeasts as starter cultures for cocoa bean fermentation is recommended to homogenize sensory attributes such as notes and flavors in chocolate.

Abstract
Yeast selection for the wine industry in Spain started in 1950 for the understanding of the microbial ecology, and for the selection of optimal strains to improve the performance of alcoholic fermentation and the overall wine quality. This process has been strongly developed over the last 30 years, firstly on Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and, lately, with intense activity on non-Saccharomyces. Several thousand yeast strains have been isolated, identified and tested to select those with better performance and/or specific technological properties. The present review proposes a global survey of this massive ex-situ preservation of eukaryotic microorganisms, a reservoir of biotechnological solutions for the wine sector, overviewing relevant screenings that led to the selection of strains from 12 genera and 22 species of oenological significance. In the first part, the attention goes to the selection programmes related to relevant wine-producing areas (i.e. Douro, Extremadura, Galicia, La Mancha and Uclés, Ribera del Duero, Rioja, Sherry area, and Valencia). In the second part, the focus shifted on specific non-Saccharomyces genera/species selected from different Spanish and Portuguese regions, exploited to enhance particular attributes of the wines. A fil rouge of the dissertation is the design of tailored biotechnological solutions for wines typical of given geographic areas.

Abstract
Volatile fatty acids (VFAs) are the important intermediates indicating the stability and performance of fermentation process. This study developed the spectrophotometric method for determining high-range VFA concentration in mixed-acid fermentation samples. The performance was compared with the gas chromatography (GC) technique. The calibration curves of the modified method showed linearity over a wide and high concentration range of 250–5000 mg/L for individual C2–C6 VFAs in both linear and branched chains. In order to evaluate the modified method for VFA determination in complex fermentation matrices, fermentation samples produced from acidogenic fermentation of plant materials were spiked with acetic (500–1500 mg/L) and butyric acids (1000 mg/L). The accuracy and precision of the modified method for VFA determination were in the range of 94.68–106.50% and 2.35–9.26%, respectively, comparable to the GC method (94.42–99.13% and 0.17–1.93%). The developed method was applicable to measuring all C2–C6 compounds and VFA concentrations in the fermentation samples and had an acceptable accuracy and precision. The proposed method is analytically reliable and offers significant advantages in the rapid determination of VFAs in mixed acid fermentation of organic residues.

Jaiswal KS, Rathod VK. Process Intensification of Enzymatic Synthesis of Flavor Esters: A Review. CHEM REC 2021; 22:e202100213. [PMID: 34859555 DOI: 10.1002/tcr.202100213] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2021] [Revised: 10/20/2021] [Accepted: 10/29/2021] [Indexed: 11/08/2022]
Abstract
The conventional flavor synthesis method suffers from low yields, time inefficiency, and extreme reaction conditions. Therefore, there is a necessity for the green and novel synthesis approach to overcome these limitations. The current review presents a holistic insight into different aspects associated with the synthesis of flavor esters using the immobilized enzyme. The application of process intensification tools such as ultrasound and microwave irradiation can enhance the reaction efficiency because of higher product recovery, less formation of by-products, and decreased energy consumption. This review presents the process intensification of value-added flavor esters synthesis and the mechanism of ultrasound and microwave action on the enzyme to enhance the enzyme activity and increase the reaction rate. It also summarizes the role of process intensification in enzymatic flavor ester synthesis, followed by specific examples as reported in the literature.

Abstract
Traditional fermented foods are usually produced by spontaneous fermentation with multiple microorganisms. Environmental factors play important roles in microbial succession. However, it is still unclear how the processing parameters regulate the microbiota during fermentation. Here, we reveal the effects of processing parameters on the core microbiota in spontaneous fermentation of Chinese liquor starter. Rhizopus, Pichia, Wickerhamomyces, Saccharomycopsis, Aspergillus and Saccharomyces were identified as core microbiota using amplicon sequencing and metaproteomics analysis. Fermentation moisture gradually decreased from 34.8% to 14.2%, and fermentation temperature varied between 17.0 °C and 35.3 °C during the fermentation. Mantel test showed that fermentation moisture (P < 0.001) and fermentation temperature (P < 0.05) significantly affected the core microbiota. Moreover, structural equation modelling analysis indicated that fermentation moisture (P < 0.001) and fermentation temperature (P < 0.001) were respectively influenced by the processing parameters, room humidity and room temperature. The succession of Rhizopus, Pichia, Wickerhamomyces, Saccharomycopsis and Aspergillus were significantly affected by room humidity (P < 0.05), and the succession of Saccharomyces was significantly affected by room temperature (P < 0.001). Further, models were constructed to predict the population of core microbiota by room humidity and room temperature, using Gaussian process regression and linear regression (P < 0.05). This work would be beneficial for regulating microorganisms via controlling processing parameters in spontaneous food fermentations.

Abstract
This study aims to analyze the chemical and microbial composition and characterize volatile compounds from the artisanal and commercial Tejuino beverage. For this, eight samples are analyzed (four artisanal and four commercial). The chemical and microbiological quality is determined by standard methods, and volatile compounds are determined by solid-phase microextraction. Overall, the physicochemical composition and microbiological quality are higher for artisanal Tejuino (p < 0.05). The pH values were 3.20 and 3.62, and 0.76 and 0.46 meq of lactic acid for artisanal and commercial Tejuino, respectively. With volatile compounds analyzed, esters, benzenes, and aldehydes were predominant; meanwhile, ethanol was a volatile compound with the highest concentration for all samples. Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Limosilactobacillus fermentum were identified in artisanal Tejuino; yeasts of the Pichia genera and Lactiplantibacillus plantarum, for commercial Tejuino, and Enterococcus genus were identified in both samples. The characterization of both types of Tejuino allows us to update the information available on this important Mexican beverage. In addition, the isolation of lactic acid bacteria, as representative bacteria of both drinks, offers an area of opportunity to know the potential functionality of these bacteria in traditional fermented products.

Abstract
Cocoa fermentation is the key and most relevant process in the synthesis of aroma and flavor precursor molecules in dry beans or raw material for producing chocolate. Because this process occurs in an uncontrolled manner, the chemical and sensory quality of beans can vary and be negatively affected. One of the strategies for the standardization and improvement of the sensory quality of chocolate is the introduction of microbial starter cultures. Among these, yeasts involved in fermentation have been studied because of their pectinolytic and metabolic potential in the production of volatile compounds. This study was aimed at isolating and characterizing, both sensory and chemically, yeasts involved in cocoa fermentation that could be used as starter cultures from two agro-ecological regions for the cultivation of cocoa in Colombia. The microbiological analyses identified 22 species represented mostly by Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Wickerhamomyces anomalus and Pichia sp. The preliminary sensory analysis of eight of these species showed that Hanseniaspora thailandica and Pichia kluyveri presented sensory profiles characterized by high intensity levels of fruity notes, which could be ascribed to the production of ethyl acetate, isoamyl acetate, and 2-phenylethyl acetate.

Abstract
Kombucha is a traditional fermented beverage gaining popularity around the world. So far, few studies have investigated its microbiome using next-generation DNA sequencing, whereas the correlation between the microbial community and metabolites evolution along fermentation is still unclear. In this study, we explore this correlation in a traditionally produced kombucha by evaluating its microbial community and the main metabolites produced. We also investigated the effects of starter cultures processed in three different ways (control, starter culture without liquid suspension (CSC), and a freeze-dried starter culture (FDSC)) to evaluate changes in kombucha composition, such as antioxidant activity and sensory analysis. We identified seven genera of bacteria, including Komagataeibacter, Gluconacetobacter, Gluconobacter, Acetobacter, Liquorilactobacillus, Ligilactobacillus, and Zymomonas, and three genera of yeasts, Dekkera/Brettanomyces, Hanseniaspora, and Saccharomyces. Although there were no statistically significant differences in the acceptance test in sensory analysis, different starter cultures resulted in products showing different microbial and biochemical compositions. FDSC decreased Zymomonas and Acetobacter populations, allowing for Gluconobacter predominance, whereas in the control and CSC kombuchas the first two were the predominant genera. Results suggest that the freeze-drying cultures could be implemented to standardize the process and, despite it changes the microbial community, a lower alcohol content could be obtained.

Abstract
Fermentation is a well-known natural process that has been used by humanity for thousands of years, with the fundamental purpose of making alcoholic beverages such as wine, and also other non-alcoholic products. From a strictly biochemical point of view, fermentation is a process of central metabolism in which an organism converts a carbohydrate, such as starch or sugar, into an alcohol or an acid. The fermentation process turns grape juice (must) into wine. This is a complex chemical reaction whereby the yeast interacts with the sugars (glucose and fructose) in the must to create ethanol and carbon dioxide. Fermentation processes to produce wines are traditionally carried out with Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains, the most common and commercially available yeast, and some lactic acid bacteria. They are well-known for their fermentative behavior and technological characteristics, which allow obtaining products of uniform and standard quality. However, fermentation is influenced by other factors as well. The initial sugar content of the must and the fermentation temperature are also crucial to preserve volatile aromatics in the wine and retain fruity characters. Finally, once fermentation is completed, and most of the yeast dies, wine evolution continues until the production of the final product.

Abstract
Yeasts constitute over 1,500 species with great potential for biotechnology. Still, the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae dominates industrial applications, and many alternative physiological capabilities of lesser-known yeasts are not being fully exploited. While comparative genomics receives substantial attention, little is known about yeasts’ metabolic specificity in batch cultures. Here, we propose a multiphase multiobjective dynamic genome-scale model of yeast batch cultures that describes the uptake of carbon and nitrogen sources and the production of primary and secondary metabolites. The model integrates a specific metabolic reconstruction, based on the consensus Yeast8, and a kinetic model describing the time-varying culture environment. In addition, we proposed a multiphase multiobjective flux balance analysis to compute the dynamics of intracellular fluxes. We then compared the metabolism of S. cerevisiae and Saccharomyces uvarum strains in a rich medium fermentation. The model successfully explained the experimental data and brought novel insights into how cryotolerant strains achieve redox balance. The proposed model (along with the corresponding code) provides a comprehensive picture of the main steps occurring inside the cell during batch cultures and offers a systematic approach to prospect or metabolically engineering novel yeast cell factories. IMPORTANCE Nonconventional yeast species hold the promise to provide novel metabolic routes to produce industrially relevant compounds and tolerate specific stressors, such as cold temperatures. This work validated the first multiphase multiobjective genome-scale dynamic model to describe carbon and nitrogen metabolism throughout batch fermentation. To test and illustrate its performance, we considered the comparative metabolism of three yeast strains of the Saccharomyces genus in rich medium fermentation. The study revealed that cryotolerant Saccharomyces species might use the γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) shunt and the production of reducing equivalents as alternative routes to achieve redox balance, a novel biological insight worth being explored further. The proposed model (along with the provided code) can be applied to a wide range of batch processes started with different yeast species and media, offering a systematic and rational approach to prospect nonconventional yeast species metabolism and engineering novel cell factories.

Abstract
Evolutionary history and early association with anthropogenic environments have made Saccharomyces cerevisiae the quintessential wine yeast. This species typically dominates any spontaneous wine fermentation and, until recently, virtually all commercially available wine starters belonged to this species. The Crabtree effect, and the ability to grow under fully anaerobic conditions, contribute decisively to their dominance in this environment. But not all strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae are equally suitable as starter cultures. In this article, we review the physiological and genetic characteristics of S. cerevisiae wine strains, as well as the biotic and abiotic factors that have shaped them through evolution. Limited genetic diversity of this group of yeasts could be a constraint to solving the new challenges of oenology. However, research in this field has for many years been providing tools to increase this diversity, from genetic engineering and classical genetic tools to the inclusion of other yeast species in the catalogues of wine yeasts. On occasion, these less conventional species may contribute to the generation of interspecific hybrids with S. cerevisiae. Thus, our knowledge about wine strains of S. cerevisiae and other wine yeasts is constantly expanding. Over the last decades, wine yeast research has been a pillar for the modernisation of oenology, and we can be confident that yeast biotechnology will keep contributing to solving any challenges, such as climate change, that we may face in the future.

Abstract
The production of pome fruits as pears and apples, as well as their derived industries, is of great economic importance in North Patagonia. The elaboration of fermented beverages as cider or perry has evidenced a substantial diversification during the last years, with the evaluation of different fruit varieties, yeast starters and technological changes. In this work, two cryotolerant yeasts belonging to the species Saccharomyces uvarum were evaluated at laboratory and pilot scale in sterile and no-sterile pear must. One of the strains was originally isolated from apple chicha (strain NPCC1314) and the other from apple cider (strain NPCC1420) in Patagonia. Both physicochemical and sensory features of the fermented products were evaluated. Both strains were able to successfully complete the fermentations, although strain NPCC1420 showed the better kinetic properties including a faster sugar consumption than the strain NPCC1314. Both strains showed excellent implantation capacity, but the fermented products showed different chemical profiles. The perry fermented with the strain NPCC1314 was characterized by better sensory attributes as assessed by trained panelists and a greater acceptance for untrained public than the same fermented with the strain NPCC1420. The two strains were able to consume sorbitol, both in pear must and in agar-plates supplemented with sorbitol as the sole carbon source. This ability is described for the first time in S. uvarum, at least for the two strains evaluated in this work.

Abstract
Ethyl acetate is an organic solvent with many industrial applications, currently produced by energy-intensive chemical processes based on fossil carbon resources. Ethyl acetate can be synthesized from renewable sugars by yeasts like Kluyveromyces marxianus in aerobic processes. However, ethyl acetate is highly volatile and thus stripped from aerated cultivation systems which complicate the quantification of the produced ester. Synthesis of volatile metabolites is commonly monitored by repeated analysis of metabolite concentrations in both the gas and liquid phase. In this study, a model-based method for quantifying the synthesis and degradation of volatile metabolites was developed. This quantification of volatiles is solely based on repeatedly measured gas-phase concentrations and allows calculation of reaction rates and yields in high temporal resolution. Parameters required for these calculations were determined in abiotic stripping tests. The developed method was validated for ethyl acetate, ethanol and acetaldehyde which were synthesized by K. marxianus DSM 5422 during an iron-limited batch cultivation; it was shown that the presented method is more precise and less time-consuming than the conventional method. The biomass-specific synthesis rate and the yield of ethyl acetate varied over time and exhibited distinct momentary maxima of 0.50 g g‒1h‒1 and 0.38 g g‒1 at moderate iron limitation.

Abstract
Ethyl acetate is currently produced from fossil carbon resources. This ester could also be microbially synthesized from sugar-rich wastes of the food industry. Wild-type strains with GRAS status are preferred for such applications. Production of ethyl acetate by wild-type yeasts has been repeatedly reported, but comparative studies with several strains at various induction modes are largely missing. Here, synthesis of ethyl acetate by three yeasts with GRAS status, Kluyveromyces marxianus DSM 5422, Cyberlindnera jadinii DSM 2361 and Wickerhamomyces anomalus DSM 6766, was studied under identical and well-defined conditions in an aerated bioreactor, by inducing the ester synthesis via iron or oxygen limitation. Balancing the ester synthesis was based on measured concentrations of ethyl acetate in the exhaust gas, delivering masses of synthesized ester and synthesis rates in a high temporal resolution. All tested yeasts synthesized ethyl acetate under these conditions, but the intensity varied with the strain and induction mode. The highest yields were achieved under iron limitation with K. marxianus (0.182 g g-1) and under oxygen limitation with W. anomalus (0.053 g g-1). Iron limitation proved to be the better inducer for ester synthesis while oxygen limitation favored ethanol formation. K. marxianus DSM 5422 was the most potent producer of ethyl acetate exhibiting the highest biomass-specific synthesis rate of 0.5 g g-1h-1 under moderate iron limitation.

Abstract
Aroma profile is one of the main features for the acceptance of wine. Yeasts and bacteria are the responsible organisms to carry out both, alcoholic and malolactic fermentation. Alcoholic fermentation is in turn, responsible for transforming grape juice into wine and providing secondary aromas. Secondary aroma can be influenced by different factors; however, the influence of the microorganisms is one of the main agents affecting final wine aroma profile. Saccharomyces cerevisiae has historically been the most used yeast for winemaking process for its specific characteristics: high fermentative metabolism and kinetics, low acetic acid production, resistance to high levels of sugar, ethanol, sulfur dioxide and also, the production of pleasant aromatic compounds. Nevertheless, in the last years, the use of non-saccharomyces yeasts has been progressively growing according to their capacity to enhance aroma complexity and interact with S. cerevisiae, especially in mixed cultures. Hence, this review article is aimed at associating the main secondary aroma compounds present in wine with the microorganisms involved in the spontaneous and guided fermentations, as well as an approach to the strain variability of species, the genetic modifications that can occur and their relevance to wine aroma construction.

Abstract
Alcoholic fermentation is influenced by yeast strain, culture media, substrate concentration and fermentation conditions, which contribute to taste and aroma. Some non-Saccharomyces yeasts are recognized as volatile compound producers that enrich aromatic profile of alcoholic beverages. In this work, 21 strains of Pichia kluyveri isolated from different fermentative processes and regions were evaluated. A principal component analysis (PCA) showed statistical differences between strains mainly associated with the variety and concentration of the compounds produced. From the PCA, two strains (PK1 and PK8) with the best volatile compound production were selected to evaluate the impact of culture media (M12 medium and Agave tequilana juice), stirring speeds (100 and 250 rpm) and temperatures (20°C, 25°C and 30°C). Increased ester production was observed at 250 rpm. Greatest effect in alcohols and ester production was found with A. tequilana, identifying PK1 as higher alcohol producer, and PK8 as better ester producer. Regarding temperature, PK1 increased ester production with decreased fermentation temperature. PK8 presented maximum levels of ethyl acetate and ethyl dodecanoate at 20°C, and finally isoamyl acetate increased its production at 30°C. Therefore, P. kluyveri strains are of great interest to produce different aromatic profiles that are affected by factors including medium, agitation and temperature.

Abstract
Terpenes are important contributors to wine aroma. Free and glycosidically bound terpenes are primarily formed in grapes. During fermentation, they undergo important transformation catalyzed by yeast, so that the terpene profile of grape is substantially different from that of the corresponding wine. The present paper assessed the ability of a Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain to transform 17 different terpenes. Biotransformation was performed by placing target compounds in incubation with resting cells. Volatile compounds produced were extracted by solid-phase extraction and analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Geranyl acetate, neryl acetate, citronellyl acetate, and menthyl acetate were formed from the corresponding terpene alcohols. β-Citronellol was the main product of geraniol transformation; geranial, an intermediate of this pathway, has also been detected. Limonene was hydroxylated by yeast to form carveol, trans-2,8-menthadien-1-ol, and cis-2,8-menthadien-1-ol. Moreover, yeast cells were found to be able to adsorb a significant portion of the terpenes present in the reaction batches, with the extent of this phenomenon being linked to terpene hydrophobicity.

Abstract
The Muscat Bailey A (MBA) grape, one of the most prominent grape cultivars in Korea, contains considerable amounts of monoterpene alcohols that have very low odor thresholds and significantly affect the perception of wine aroma. To develop a potential wine starter for Korean MBA wine, nine types of non-Saccharomyces yeasts were isolated from various Korean food materials, including nuruk, Sémillon grapes, persimmons, and Muscat Bailey A grapes, and their physiological, biochemical, and enzymatic properties were investigated and compared to the conventional wine fermentation strain, Saccharomyces cerevisiae W-3. Through API ZYM analysis, Wickerhamomyces anomalus JK04, Hanseniaspora vineae S7, Hanseniaspora uvarum S8, Candida railenensis S18, and Metschnikowia pulcherrima S36 were revealed to have β-glucosidase activity. Their activities were quantified by culturing in growth medium composed of different carbon sources: 2% glucose, 1% glucose + 1% cellobiose, and 2% cellobiose. W. anomalus JK04 and M. pulcherrima S36 showed the highest β-glucosidase activities in all growth media; thus, they were selected and utilized for MBA wine fermentation. MBA wines co-fermented with non-Saccharomyces yeasts (W. anomalus JK04 or M. pulcherrima S36) and S. cerevisiae W-3 showed significantly increased levels of linalool, citronellol, and geraniol compared to MBA wine fermented with S. cerevisiae W-3 (control). In a sensory evaluation, the flavor, taste, and overall preference scores of the co-fermented wines were higher than those for the control wine, suggesting that W. anomalus JK04 and M. pulcherrima S36 are favorable wine starters for improving Korean MBA wine quality.

Abstract
Fermented apple beverages are produced all over the world with diverse characteristics associated with each country. Despite the diversifications, cider producers are confronted with similar issues and risks. The nature of the raw material, also known as the fermentation medium, plays a key role in fermentation. A well-defined composition of apples is, therefore, required to produce cider with good quality. In addition, ferment and its metabolism are important factors in the fermentation process. The producers of cider and other alcoholic beverages are looking in general for novel yeast strains or for the use of native strains to produce "authentic" and diversified beverages that are distinct from each other, and that attract more and more consumers. Research articles on cider production are infrequent compared to wine production, especially on the impact of the chemical composition and microbial diversity of apples on fermentation. Even though the processing of fermented beverages is close in terms of microbial interactions and production, the study of the specific properties of apples and the production challenges of cider production is advantageous and meaningful for cider producers. This review summarizes the current knowledge on apple composition and the impact of the must composition on fermentation and yeast growth. In addition, the microbial diversity of cider, activities, and its influence on fermentation are reviewed.

Abstract
AbstractThe international competitiveness of the wine sector and consumer demands for the unique wine styles pose challenges in improving the fermentation process. The basis of proper alcoholic fermentation is knowledge about how individual yeast strains interact with the aroma, taste and color of wine, what results in possibility to select species used as starter cultures. To use the value of non-Saccharomyces yeast strains in wine production and to minimize the possibility of wine deterioration, it is necessary to precisely recognize the yeast cultures present on the fruit of the vine and in grape must, as well as their metabolic properties. The aim of the study was to determine the oenological properties of yeasts isolated from spontaneously fermented grape musts obtained from cool climate grapes. For this purpose, Zweigelt grape must was fermented with yeast monocultures. Alcohol, extract, sugars, glycerol, total acidity and free amine nitrogen were analyzed in the obtained wines. Poor fermentation properties of yeast strains results in obtaining wines with relatively large amounts of residual sugars and low alcohol. A decrease in overall acidity was noted in sets with the participation of M. pulcherrima MG971264, while in other tests the opposite trend was observed. Although some microorganisms have the ability to assimilate organic acids found in wine, they are not able to carry out fermentation or they do it inefficiently. Solution to this problem may, therefore, be use of mixed cultures of noble and non-Saccharomyces yeast, what effectively reduce the concentration of organic acids, while not adversely affecting the organoleptic characteristics of the drink.

Abstract
The production of wines with peculiar analytical and sensorial profiles, together with the microbiological control of the winemaking process, has always been one of the main objectives of the wine industry. In this perspective, the use of oenological starters containing non-Saccharomyces yeasts can represent a valid tool for achieving these objectives. Here we present the results of seven pilot scale fermentations, each of which was inoculated with a different non-Saccharomyces yeast strain and after three days with a commercial Saccharomyces cerevisiae starter. The fermentations were carried out in double on 70 L of Sangiovese grape must, the most widely planted red grape variety in Italy and particularly in Tuscany, where it is utilized for the production of more than 80% of red wines. Fermentations were monitored by assessing both the development of the microbial population and the consumption of sugars at the different sampling times. The impact of the different starters was assessed after stabilization through the evaluation of the standard analytical composition of the resulting wines, also taking into account polysaccharides and volatile compounds. Moreover, quantitative descriptive sensory analyses were carried out. Compared to the control wines obtained by inoculating the S. cerevisiae starter strain, those inoculated with non-Saccharomyces/Saccharomyces mixed starters presented a significant differentiation in the chemical-analytical composition. Moreover, sensory analysis revealed differences among wines mainly for intensity of color, astringency, and dryness mouthfeel perception.

Abstract
In wine, one method of limiting the addition of sulphites, a harmful and allergenic agent, is bio-protection. This practice consists of the early addition of microorganisms on grape must before fermentation. Non-Saccharomyces yeasts have been proposed as an interesting alternative to sulphite addition. However, scientific data proving the effectiveness of bio-protection remains sparse. This study provides the first analysis of the chemical and microbiological effects of a Metschnikowia pulcherrima strain inoculated at the beginning of the red winemaking process in three wineries as an alternative to sulphiting. Like sulphiting, bio-protection effectively limited the growth of spoilage microbiota and had no influence on the phenolic compounds protecting musts and wine from oxidation. The bio-protection had no effect on the volatile compounds and the sensory differences were dependent on the experimental sites. However, a non-targeted metabolomic analysis by FTICR-MS highlighted a bio-protection signature.

Abstract
Over the last decades, the average alcohol content of wine has increased due to climate change and consumer preferences for particular wine styles that resulted in increased grape sugar levels at harvest. Therefore, alcohol reduction is a current challenge in the winemaking industry. Among several strategies under study, the use of non-conventional yeasts in combination with Saccharomyces cerevisiae plays an important role for lowering ethanol production in wines nowadays. In the present work, 33 native non-Saccharomyces strains were assayed in sequential culture with a S. cerevisiae wine strain to determine their potential for reducing the alcohol content in Malvar white wines. Four of the non-Saccharomyces strains (Wickerhamomyces anomalus 21A-5C, Meyerozyma guilliermondii CLI 1217, and two Metschnikowia pulcherrima (CLI 68 and CLI 460)) studied in sequential combination with S. cerevisiae CLI 889 were best able to produce dry wines with decreased alcohol proportion in comparison with one that was inoculated only with S. cerevisiae. These sequential fermentations produced wines with between 0.8% (v/v) and 1.3% (v/v) lower ethanol concentrations in Malvar wines, showing significant differences compared with the control. In addition, these combinations provided favorable oenological characteristics to wines such as high glycerol proportion, volatile higher alcohols, and esters with fruity and sweet character.

Abstract
Recently, there has been a growing interest in the role of non-Saccharomyces yeast (NSY) as a coculturing partner with Saccharomyces cerevisiae during grape must fermentation. We investigated three new strains, namely Nakazawaea ishiwadae, Candida railenensis and Debaryomyces hansenii, for their oenological potential in mixed-culture micro-vinifications with S. cerevisiae Vin13 using Muscaris grape must. None of the NSY strains impeded the fermentation performance as all the mixed-culture experiments finished at the same time. Coculturing with N. ishiwadae yielded significantly higher concentrations of ethyl and acetate esters in the final wine product. Apart from higher acetic acid levels, wines produced with C. railenensis and D. hansenii yielded much lower esters concentrations. The concentrations of certain terpenes and norisoprenoids were also significantly modulated in the mixed-culture fermentations. This study reveals the rarely reported species of N. ishiwadae as a promising coculturing partner for increasing aroma-active compounds in a wine.

Abstract
As a complex microbial ecosystem, wine is a particularly interesting model for studying interactions between microorganisms as fermentation can be done by microbial consortia, a unique strain or mixed culture. The effect of a specific yeast strain on its environments is unique and characterized by its metabolites and their concentration. With its great resolution and excellent mass accuracy, ultrahigh resolution mass spectrometry (uHRMS) is the perfect tool to analyze the yeast metabolome at the end of alcoholic fermentation. This work reports the change in wine chemical composition from pure and mixed culture fermentation with Lachancea thermotolerans, Starmerella bacillaris, Metschnikowia pulcherrima and S. cerevisiae. We could clearly differentiate wines according to the yeast strain used in single cultures and markers, which reflect important differences between the yeast species, were extracted and annotated. Moreover, uHRMS revealed underlining intra species metabolomics differences, showing differences at the strain level between the two Starmerella bacillaris. Non volatile metabolomics analysis of single and sequential fermentations confirmed that mixed fermentations lead to a different composition. Distinct metabolites appeared in wines from sequential fermentation compared to single fermentation. This suggests that interactions between yeasts are not neutral.

Abstract
The volatile compounds of three Langjiu (“Honghualangshi, HHL”, “Zhenpinlang, ZPL”, and “Langpailangjiu, LPLJ”) were studied by gas chromatography-olfactometry (GC-O) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The results showed that a total of 31, 30, and 30 ester compounds making a contribution to aroma were present in the HHL, ZPL, and LPLJ samples, respectively. From these esters, 16 compounds were identified as important odour substances, and their odour activity values (OAVs) were greater than 1. The key ester components were selected as: ethyl acetate, ethyl 2-methylbutyrate, ethyl 3-methyl butyrate, ethyl hexanoate, and ethyl phenylacetate by aroma extract dilution analysis (AEDA), odour activity value (OAV), and omission testing. Five esters were studied for perceptual interactions while using Feller’s additive model, OAV, and a vector model. Among these mixtures, they all have an enhancing or synergistic effect. Among these mixtures, one mixture presented an additive effect and nine mixtures showed a synergistic effect.

Abstract
The quality of fermented soybeans can be determined by diverse metabolites produced by microorganisms. Mass spectrometry-based metabolomic approach was applied to investigate the differences in volatile and non-volatile metabolite profiles of fermented soybeans by different microorganisms [e.g., molds, yeasts, lactic acid bacteria (LAB), and other bacteria]. The partial least squares-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) for volatile metabolites profiles indicated that the fungi group (mold/yeast) was clearly discriminated from the bacteria group (bacteria/LAB). The metabolic pathways related to the formation of volatile metabolites also differed according to microorganisms. In particular, the formation of branched-chain aliphatic alcohols and esters increased in the fungi group, while that of volatiles derived from fatty acids was superior in the bacteria group. In addition, we could determine the microorganism-specific metabolites using a correlation network analysis. This study can provide the fundamental knowledge on the metabolic differences according to the type of microorganisms in fermented soybeans.
