Ever wondered how you can monitor wine fermentation in real time without disturbing the process? In our latest application note at art photonics, we explain how the combination of mid-infrared (mid-ir) and uv-vis spectroscopy with fiber-based technology is transforming fermentation analysis.
Our study on Federweißer (fresh wine) revealed that key ethanol peaks become clearly visible by Day 6—indicating the sugar-to-alcohol conversion occurring between days 2 and 6. This approach offers several benefits:
Real-time monitoring – Track ethanol formation as it happens during fermentation.
Dual-technique approach – Utilize both mid-ir and uv-vis spectroscopy with a single fiber probe.
Non-invasive analysis – Obtain direct measurements without the need for sample preparation.
Compact solution – Ideal for in-line monitoring within various biotechnological applications.
This innovative technology opens doors for wine producers, biotechnology companies, pharmaceutical applications, and the food and beverage industry. The ability to obtain complementary molecular and compositional information in real time makes this method highly valuable for fermentation analysis and process optimization.
