Article Abstract
Efficient removal of free and glycosylated volatile phenols from smoke tainted wine remains a significant challenge for winemakers. The partitioning of volatile phenols and their glycoconjugates (as smoke taint markers) by ultrafiltration (UF) and nanofiltration (NF) membranes was evaluated. While the volatile phenol content of permeate derived from NF and UF were comparable to that of untreated wine, glycoconjugates of volatile phenols were progressively concentrated in retentate as membrane molecular weight cut-off decreased. Three smoke tainted wines were subsequently fractionated by UF and the resulting permeate eluted through a column packed with adsorbent resin. Volatile phenols were removed to varying degrees (37-100 %), but glycoconjugates carried-over from one wine to the next, despite resin regeneration. Resin saturation occurred earlier for glycoconjugates than for volatile phenols, i.e., after elution of 15 vs >100 bed volumes of permeate. This study provides insight into the potential for membrane filtration to help ameliorate smoke tainted wines.

Starch-tannic acid complex is a type of resistant starch, while the influence of these complexes with different starch chain-length distributions (CLDs) on gut microbiota is unclear. Therefore, starch-tannic acid complexes were prepared from five commercial starches with diverse CLDs, and their influence on the gut microbiota was explored using in vitro fermentation with human fecal microbiota. For the first time, results showed that wheat and corn starch-tannic acid complexes significantly promoted propionate production (p < 0.

Early detection of bladder cancer (BC) remains a major clinical challenge due to the limitations of current diagnostic methods, which are often invasive, expensive, or insufficiently sensitive, particularly for early-stage disease. Metabolomics approaches, when integrated with machine learning (ML) techniques, offer a powerful platform for identifying novel, non-invasive biomarkers. In this study, urinary volatile organic compounds (VOCs) were analysed from 87 BC patients and 90 age- and sex-matched cancer-free controls using headspace solid-phase microextraction coupled with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HS-SPME/GC-MS).
