Abstract
Interest in Metschnikowia (M.) pulcherrima is growing in the world of winemaking. M. pulcherrima is used both to protect musts from microbial spoilage and to modulate the aromatic profile of wines. Here, we describe the isolation, characterization, and use of an autochthonous strain of M. pulcherrima in the vinification of Chasselas musts from the 2022 vintage. M. pulcherrima was used in co-fermentation with Saccharomyces cerevisiae at both laboratory and experimental cellar scales. Our results showed that M. pulcherrima does not ferment sugars but has high metabolic activity, as detected by flow cytometry. Furthermore, sensory analysis showed that M. pulcherrima contributed slightly to the aromatic profile when compared to the control vinifications. The overall results suggest that our bioprospecting strategy can guide the selection of microorganisms that can be effectively used in the winemaking process.

Abstract
A fast, sensitive and reproducible method using LC-MS/MS for simultaneous quantification of glutathione (GSH), glutathione disulfide (GSSG) and glutathione-S-sulfonate (GSSO3H) was developed, optimised and applied in analysis of grape juice and wine samples. The results show that only GSH (10-60 mg·L-1) and GSSG (2-11 mg·L-1) are found in grape juice when SO2 is not added. GSSO3H was detected in must samples treated with SO2 but only at a low concentration (<1 mg L-1). In the wine samples, the dominant form of glutathione was GSSO3H (5-11 mg L-1), followed by GSH (0-5 mg L-1) and GSSG (0-6 mg L-1), underscoring the importance of GSSO3H quantification. GSSO3H formation in wine was correlated with the total SO2 level in the wine. We believe this is the first report on GSSO3H quantification in wine.

Abstract
Sulphur dioxide (SO2) antiseptic and antioxidant role allows it to preserve the wine from oxygen's negative effects. However, its use is increasingly challenged by the concerns of consumers and producers who want to limit the chemical inputs in wines. During winemaking, many stages can lead to a transfer of oxygen to the wine. Bottling is crucial. In order to limit oxygen addition to the wine, various inerting devices have been developed by manufacturers. The first part of this work aims to understand the influence of bottle inerting sequence, rate work and pressure of inert gas, on the amount of oxygen in the bottle before filling. The results indicate that the level of oxygen brought to the wine depends on the settings implying to adapt them specifically to each bottling setup. Once inerted, the bottles are filled and corked. The influence of the filling nozzle and of the inerting devices on the oxygen addition was studied. The amount of oxygen brought to the wine during bottling was significantly reduced by the use of inerting devices. The influence of the filling nozzle and the setting conditions used was also highlighted. Thus, good management of oxygen addition requires the mastery of the bottling chain.

Abstract
This study was designed to describe the percentage of cattle shedding Escherichia coli O157:H7 in Midwestern U.S. feedlots and to discover relationships between the point prevalence of cattle shedding the organism and the characteristics of those cattle or the conditions of their pens. Cattle from 29 pens of five Midwestern feedlots were each sampled once between June and September 1999. Feces were collected from the rectum of each animal in each pen. Concurrently, samples of water were collected from the water tank, and partially consumed feed was collected from the feedbunk of each pen. Characteristics of the cattle and conditions of each pen that might have affected the prevalence of cattle shedding E. coli O157:H7 were recorded. These factors included the number of cattle; the number of days on feed; and the average body weight, class, and sex of the cattle. In addition, the temperature and pH of the tank water were determined, and the cleanliness of the tank water and the condition of the pen floor were subjectively assessed. The samples of feces, feed, and water were tested for the presence of E. coli O157:H7. E. coli O157:H7 was isolated from the feces of 719 of 3,162 cattle tested (23%), including at least one animal from each of the 29 pens. The percentage of cattle in a pen shedding E. coli O157:H7 did not differ between feedyards, but it did vary widely within feedyards. A higher prevalence of cattle shed E. coli O157:H7 from muddy pen conditions than cattle from pens in normal condition. The results of this study suggest that E. coli O157:H7 should be considered common to groups of feedlot cattle housed together in pens and that the condition of the pen floor may influence the prevalence of cattle shedding the organism.

Abstract
Bioassay/radioimmunoassay (RIA) analysis of the seeds of four Lamium species, L. album, L. galeobdolon, L. maculatum and L. pupureum revealed the presence of phytoecdysteroids in all of them. Bioassay/RIA-guided and photo-diode array-monitored HPLC analysis of the aerial parts of L. album and L. purpureum led to the isolation of four known ecdysteroids (abutasterone, inokosterone, polypodine B and pterosterone) from the former, and 20-hydroxyecdysone from the latter. Distribution and identities of ecdysteroids in different parts of these two species and also in the seed extract of L. maculatum have been analysed by RIA and bioassay.
