Monitoring Alcoholic Fermentation in Grape Pomace

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The fermentation process was monitored twice per day by measuring the weight loss of the bottles due to the CO2 release. The fermentations were stopped when the weight loss was less than 0.1 g in 12 h. After alcoholic fermentation, grape pomace was separated from wine carefully, centrifuged, and stored at –20°C for further analysis.
The viable cell count was performed by identifying colony colors using 100 mg/L of chloramphenicol (Solarbio, Beijing, China) that was added to Wallerstein Laboratory (WLN) nutrient agar (Qingdao Hope Bio-Technology Co., Ltd., China). One hundred microliter aliquots were plated onto WLN plates. After 48 h of incubation at 30°C, the cells could be differentially counted based on the morphological particularities presented by the non-Saccharomyces yeasts that distinguished them from S. cerevisiae.

Each sample consisted of five slices (20 ± 4 g) was blended with 225 ml of sterile physiological saline (8.5 g L−1 NaCl) using a sterile stomacher bender (Qingdao Hope Bio‐Technology Co., Ltd, Qingdao, China) for 2 min at high speed. A 100 μl sample of each filtrate and its appropriate dilution was spread on agar plates. The aerobic plate count (APC) was determined by plating samples on plate count agar (Aoboxing Bio‐Technology Co., Ltd, Beijing, China) and incubated at 37°C for 24 hr. Mold and yeast (M&Y) enumeration was performed by plating on potato dextrose agar (Aoboxing Bio‐Technology Co., Ltd, Beijing, China) supplemented with 200 mg L−1 chloramphenicol (Solarbio Science & Technology Co., Ltd, Beijing, China) and incubated at 28°C for 48 hr. Microbial colonies were reported as log CFU g−1 of tissue.

The involved antibiotics: chloramphenicol (Chl), ciprofloxacin (Cip), erythromycin (Ery), gentamycin (Gen), tetracycline (Tet), and polymyxin B (Pol) and cupric (CuSO4·5H2O) were get from Solarbio, Inc. (Shanghai, China). 90% inhibition of growth was regarded as the MIC of each antibiotic, which was determined as Additional file 1: Test S1 described, and the MIC of copper ions was also investigated with the same method. The detailed accounts are displayed in Additional file 1: Text S1. The tetracycline resistant cultures were kept from light so as not to degrade the antibiotic.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
