Influence of different pH values and inoculation time on the growth and malolactic activity of a strain of Oenococcus oeni

Abstract: The present study was undertaken to evaluate the influence of medium pH and inoculation time on the growth and malolactic activity of an Oenococcus oeni culture. Samples of a commercial white grape juice adjusted to pH 3.2, 3.4 or 3.6, and inoculated with Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain CY3079, were inoculated with a malolactic culture (Oenococcus oeni strain 31) at the beginning, middle, and end of alcoholic fermentation. The results obtained from this single case study show that it is possible to inoculate t… Show more

“…1d), and then the pH in the two control groups increased gradually to 4.08 (T. delbrueckii Biodiva control) and 4.03 (S. cerevisiae EC-1118 control) by day 14. The decline in pH could be ascribed to the production of organic acids (α-ketoglutaric, pyruvic, succinic and lactic acids) during yeast growth (Rosi & Canuti, 2003). In SIM, the pH rapidly increased to around 4.20 by day 4 and then decreased slightly to 4.17 (Fig.…”

“…Wine has numerous chemical factors able to limit bacterial activity, including ethanol, sulphur dioxide, low pH, and the absence of fermentable sugars. [5][6][7][8][9] In addition, some authors highlighted other causes of troubles during MLF, including nutritional imbalance or toxic compounds made by yeast responsible of alcoholic fermentation. 10 The sum of these factors in wine frequently causes stuck MLF, or delays its occurrence, requiring several weeks to complete.…”

“…Specifically, growth of certain wine LAB in grape musts can cause "stuck AF," i.e., interruption of AF before sugar depletion (14,42), or wines with increased concentrations of acetic acid that render them unacceptable for consumption (11). Over the last years, several authors have researched yeast-bacterium interactions (3,25,30,32), which have been recently reviewed by Alexandre et al (1), and suitable yeast-bacterium combinations have been used to study simultaneous AF and MLF (20,21,43,47). Most of these studies have concentrated on the microbial interactions, measured as cell numbers and viability, and a few wine parameters, such as sugar and malic acid levels.…”
