The aim of this study was to evaluate the level of nine biogenic amines (putrescine (PUT), cadaverine (CAD), tyramine (TYR), tryptamine (TRY), 2-phenethylamine (2-PHE), histamine (HIS), spermidine (SPD), spermine (SPM) and agmatine (AGM)) into wines and beers from the local market of Romania. Their concentration in beer is of great interest not only for their potential risk to human health but also because they could have a role as chemical indicators of unwanted microbial contamination or deficient processing con...

This work has pursued the accumulation process of aromatic compounds such as esters in three varieties of Romanian native wines from Apoldu de Jos, namely Feteasc? regal?, Feteasc? alb? and Iordana, obtained by fermenting them in a microvinification system, in a bioreactor equipped with temperature sensors for pH and CO2. The pectolytic enzymes Enozym flavors (3g/100 kg) and selected Vinartis ferm yeasts as Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain were used for the alcoholic fermentation. To identify and quantify the ester...
