Non-targeted 1H NMR fingerprinting and multivariate statistical analyses for the characterisation of the geographical origin of Italian sweet cherries

Characterization of Conventional, Biodynamic, and Organic Purple Grape Juices by Chemical Markers, Antioxidant Capacity, and Instrumental Taste Profile

“…Herein, a clear trend was observed using PCA: the producing region highly affects the instrumental taste profile, phenolic compounds, and antioxidant capacity of grape juices. This result is in line with other reports on fruit‐based products cultivated in different regions (Pellerano and others ; Longobardi and others ). Additionally, in a recent study conducted by our group (Granato and others ), the effect of producing region and grape variety on the individual phenolic composition, antioxidant capacity, and sensory attributes of red wines were evaluated and we verified that the grape variety together with the producing country represent important discriminating factors of red wines.…”

Evaluation of saffron (Crocus sativus L.) adulteration with plant adulterants by 1H NMR metabolite fingerprinting

“…Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is an analytical technique largely applied for its rapidity and reproducibility, having the potential for high-throughput analyses with minimal sample pretreatment (Longobardi et al, 2013;Mannina, Sobolev, & Viel, 2012). NMR based metabolite fingerprinting may identify the subtle differences that often exist between authentic and fraudulent products.…”

The efficacy of the combined use of chlorine dioxide and passive modified atmosphere packaging on sweet cherry quality

“…Sweet cherries are preferred by the consumers due to their sweet flavor, exquisite aroma and natural healthy compounds such as polyphenols and anthocyanins (Longobardi et al, 2013). Turkey is the largest producer of sweet cherry with 438.550 tons in 2011, however Turkey holds the third place for the exportation after USA and Chili according to the FAO statistical database (FAO, 2011).…”
