The effect of Maillard reaction products (MRPs) with different browning degree on the liquid-vapour partition of ethanol was studied in model systems. In particular, glucose-glycine aqueous solutions subjected to different heat treatments, which consequentely had different water activity values, were added to increasing amounts of ethanol and analysed for ethanol vapour pressure. In order to study the effects of the water activity change and of melanoidins' formation on the ethanol partition, experiments were also carried out on samples equilibrated at the same water activity. Ethanol vapour pressure decreased as the Maillard reaction proceeded. This result was attributed to the increase in water activity rather than to binding effects of melanoidins towards ethanol. Changes in water activity were mainly due to reagent consumption, water molecule formation and melanoidin production.

Abstract

The effect of Maillard reaction products (MRPs) with different browning degree on the liquid-vapour partition of ethanol was studied in model systems. In particular, glucose-glycine aqueous solutions subjected to different heat treatments, which consequentely had different water activity values, were added to increasing amounts of ethanol and analysed for ethanol vapour pressure. In order to study the effects of the water activity change and of melanoidins' formation on the ethanol partition, experiments were also carried out on samples equilibrated at the same water activity. Ethanol vapour pressure decreased as the Maillard reaction proceeded. This result was attributed to the increase in water activity rather than to binding effects of melanoidins towards ethanol. Changes in water activity were mainly due to reagent consumption, water molecule formation and melanoidin production.
