[PMID: 38999065 DOI: 10.3390/molecules29133110] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2024] [Revised: 06/25/2024] [Accepted: 06/28/2024] [Indexed: 07/14/2024] Open
Abstract
Nutritional therapy, for example through beer, is the best solution to human chronic diseases. In this article, we demonstrate the physiological mechanisms of the functional ingredients in beer with health-promoting effects, based on the PubMed, Google, CNKI, and ISI Web of Science databases, published from 1997 to 2024. Beer, a complex of barley malt and hops, is rich in functional ingredients. The health effects of beer against 26 chronic diseases are highly similar to those of barley due to the physiological mechanisms of polyphenols (phenolic acids, flavonoids), melatonin, minerals, bitter acids, vitamins, and peptides. Functional beer with low purine and high active ingredients made from pure barley malt, as well as an additional functional food, represents an important development direction, specifically, ginger beer, ginseng beer, and coix-lily beer, as consumed by our ancestors ca. 9000 years ago. Low-purine beer can be produced via enzymatic and biological degradation and adsorption of purines, as well as dandelion addition. Therefore, this review paper not only reveals the physiological mechanisms of beer in overcoming chronic human diseases, but also provides a scientific basis for the development of functional beer with health-promoting effects.

Abstract
This study explores the potential of Maiorca wheat malt as an alternative ingredient in beer production, investigating its impact on the brewing process and beer quality at different recipe contents (50 %, 75 %, 100 %). The study encompasses a comprehensive analysis of key malt parameters, revealing Maiorca malt's positive influence on maltose, glucose, filterability, extract, free amino nitrogen, and fermentability. Notably, the malt exhibited heightened levels of α-amylase and β-amylase enzymes compared to conventional commercial malt. Furthermore, the analysis of aroma compounds and subsequent sensory evaluations unveiled a significant correlation between the proportion of Maiorca malt in the formulation and intensified estery, fruity, malty, honey, complemented by a reduction in attributes such as aromatic compounds, phenolic, yeasty, sulfury, oxidized, and solvent-like odors. This research underscores the favorable contribution of Maiorca wheat malt to enhancing both the brewing process and final beer quality, highlighting its potential as an innovative ingredient in brewing practices.

Abstract
AbstractBackground and ObjectivesMashing temperature is important during beer brewing processes. Qingke malt was a new material whose application in the beer industry holds significant importance for the beer industry and agriculture development in the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau. The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of mashing temperature on the physicochemical parameters, fermentation capacity, and antioxidant capacity of Qingke wort.FindingsEthanol production and the real degree of fermentation decreased with increasing the temperature—S, while the real extract increased with increasing the temperature—S. A lower temperature—S proved to be more advantageous for the fermentation capacity of Qingke wort. In addition, a positive correlation between reducing power and the temperature—P and a negative correlation between the 2,2′‐azinobis‐(3‐ethylbenzothiazoline‐6‐sulfonate) free radical scavenging activity and the temperature—S were found.ConclusionThe fermentation capacity of Qingke wort was obtained the best when the temperature—P was 50°C and the temperature—S was 60°C. The antioxidant capacity of Qingke wort was satisfactory; the best was obtained when the temperature—P was 45°C and the temperature—S was 60°C.Significance and NoveltyThis is the first study to investigate the mashing characteristics of Qingke wort under different mashing temperatures. The results show that β‐glucan content was abundant in Qingke wort and was positively correlative with the temperature—S.

Gribkova IN, Eliseev MN, Lazareva IV, Zakharova VA, Sviridov DA, Egorova OS, Kozlov VI. The Phenolic Compounds' Role in Beer from Various Adjuncts. Molecules 2023; 28:molecules28052295. [PMID: 36903541 PMCID: PMC10004787 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28052295] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/10/2023] [Revised: 02/22/2023] [Accepted: 02/28/2023] [Indexed: 03/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The present article considers the influence of malt with various adjuncts on beer organic compounds and taste profile composition, with more attention paid to the phenol complex change. The topic under consideration is relevant since it studies the interactions of phenolic compounds with other biomolecules, and expands the understanding of the adjuncts organic compounds contribution and their joint effect on beer quality. METHODS Samples of beer were analyzed at a pilot brewery using barley and wheat malts, barley, rice, corn and wheat, and then fermented. The beer samples were assessed by industry-accepted methods and using instrumental analysis methods (high-performance liquid chromatography methods-HPLC). The obtained statistical data were processed by the Statistics program (Microsoft Corporation, Redmond, WA, USA, 2006). RESULTS The study showed that at the stage of hopped wort organic compounds structure formation, there is a clear correlation between the content of organic compounds and dry substances, including phenolic compounds (quercetin, catechins), as well as isomerized hop bitter resines. It is shown that the riboflavin content increases in all adjunct wort samples, and mostly with the use of rice-up to 4.33 mg/L, which is 9.4 times higher than the vitamin levels in malt wort. The melanoidin content in the samples was in the range of 125-225 mg/L and its levels in the wort with additives exceeded the malt wort. Changes in β-glucan and nitrogen with thiol groups during fermentation occurred with different dynamics and depending on the adjunct's proteome. The greatest decrease in non-starch polysaccharide content was observed in wheat beer and nitrogen with thiol groups content-in all other beer samples. The change in iso-α-humulone in all samples at the beginning of fermentation correlated with a decrease in original extract, and in the finished beer there was no correlation. The behavior of catechins, quercetin, and iso-α-humulone has been shown to correlate with nitrogen with thiol groups during fermentation. A strong correlation was shown between the change in iso-α-humulone and catechins, as well as riboflavin and quercetin. It was established that various phenolic compounds were involved in the formation of taste, structure, and antioxidant properties of beer in accordance with the structure of various grains, depending on the structure of its proteome. CONCLUSIONS The obtained experimental and mathematical dependences make it possible to expand the understanding of intermolecular interactions of beer organic compounds and take a step toward predicting the quality of beer at the stage of using adjuncts.

Beer and Microbiota: Pathways for a Positive and Healthy Interaction. Nutrients 2023; 15:nu15040844.

Abstract
Beer is one of the most consumed drinks worldwide. It contains numerous categories of antioxidants, phenolic products, traces of group B vitamins, minerals (selenium, silicon, potassium), soluble fibers and microorganisms. Low or moderate beer consumption, with or without alcohol, showed positive effects on health by stimulating the development of a healthy microbiota. In the present review we focused on four components responsible with interaction with gut microbiota: microorganisms, polyphenols, fiber and melanoidins, their presence in usual beers and on perspectives of development of fortified beers with enhanced effects on gut microbiota. Though microorganisms rarely escape pasteurization of beer, there are new unpasteurized types that might bring strains with probiotic effects. The polyphenols from beer are active on the gut microbiota stimulating its development, with consequent local anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. Their degradation products have prebiotic action and may combat intestinal dysbiosis. Beer contains dietary fiber such as non-starchy, non-digestible carbohydrates (β-glucans, arabinoxylans, mannose, fructose polymers, etc.) that relate with gut microbiota through fermentation, serving as a nutrient substrate. Another type of substances that are often considered close to fiber because they have an extremely low digestibility, melanoidins (melanosaccharides), give beer antioxidant and antibacterial properties. Though there are not many research studies in this area, the conclusion of this review is that beer seems a good candidate for a future functional food and that there are many pathways by which its ingredients can influence in a positive manner the human gut microbiota. Of course, there are many technological hinderances to overcome. However, designing functional beers fortified with fiber, antioxidants and probiotics, with a very low or no alcoholic content, will counteract the negative perception of beer consumption, will nullify the negative effects of alcohol, while simultaneously exerting a positive action on the gut microbiota.

Abstract
The present article introduces the problem of determining the general structure of beer as a complex system of related biomolecules. The objective was to establish the correlation of various quantities of organic compounds in beer formulation.
The research featured samples of filtered pasteurized beer obtained from a retail chain shop in Moscow (Russia). The experiment relied on standard research methods, including instrumental methods of analysis, e.g., high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The obtained experimental data underwent a statistical analysis using the Statistica software (StatSoft, 2016).
The research established the correlation between the type of grain (barley or wheat malt) and the content of organic compounds, e.g., β-glucan, polyphenols, soluble nitrogen, etc. The research also revealed some patterns in the distribution of proteins, which served as a framework for the system of organic compounds. The distribution of thiol proteins proved to depend on the dissolution degree of the grain and was different in barley light, barley dark, and wheat malt samples. The fraction distribution of β-glucan depended on the color of the malt. In light beer samples, it concentrated in high- and medium-molecular fractions of nitrogenous substances, in dark beer – in low-molecular fractions (≤ 63%). Initial wort density and alcohol content affected the amount of catechins and total polyphenols. Nitrogenous compounds depended on the color, initial extract, and alcohol content.
The nitrogenous structure and other organic compounds of beer proved to depend on protein substances. The research also revealed a number of factors that affected the fraction distribution of biomolecules in different beer sorts.

Abstract
It has become apparent that beer (both alcoholic and nonalcoholic) contains appreciable amounts of non-starch polysaccharides, a broad subgroup of dietary fiber. It is worth noting that the occurrence of non-starch polysaccharides in alcoholic beer does not imply this should be consumed as a source of nutrition. But the popularity of nonalcoholic beer is growing, and the lessons learnt from non-starch polysaccharides in brewing can be largely translated to nonalcoholic beer. For context, we briefly review the origins of dietary fiber, its importance within the human diet and the significance of water-soluble dietary fiber in beverages. We review the relationship between non-starch polysaccharides and brewing, giving focus to the techniques used to quantify non-starch polysaccharides in beer, how they affect the physicochemical properties of beer and their influence on the brewing process. The content of non-starch polysaccharides in both regular and low/nonalcoholic beer ranges between 0.5 - 4.0 g/L and are predominantly composed of arabinoxylans and β-glucans. The process of malting, wort production and filtration significantly affect the soluble non-starch polysaccharide content in the final beer. Beer viscosity and turbidity are strongly associated with the content of non-starch polysaccharides.

Response Surface Methods to Optimise Milling Parameters for Spirit Alcohol Production from Irish Wheat Grain. Foods 2022; 11:foods11081163.

Abstract
To standardise research activity and determine alcohol yield from native Irish hard wheat grain, a benchmark approach that reflects Irish industry norms is required. The goal of this study was to optimise milling parameters, grain particle size, and grain to liquid ratio towards developing a standard process. Hard wheat (Triticum avestivum cv. Costello) was used in this study. Experiments utilised a response surface method approach. When both 30 and 35 g of flour were used at a particle size of 0.2 mm, alcohol yield was >350 L of alcohol per tonne of grain (LA/tonne), but with a particle size of 0.65 and 1.1 mm, alcohol yield decreased to between 250 and 300 LA/tonne. It was noted that, during response surface study, >300 LA/tonne was achieved when grain amounts were >25 g, at a particle size of 0.2 mm; therefore, a follow-up experiment was conducted to determine whether there was a significant difference in grain amounts ranging from 25 to 35 g. During this experiment, no significant difference in alcohol yield was observed between 30 and 35 g of grain. Because there were no significant differences, the ideal milling parameters for alcohol yield were determined to be 30 g of flour with a particle size of 0.2 mm, achieving 389.5 LA/tonne. This study concludes that hard wheat can successfully be used for alcohol production, achieving >380 LA/tonne, when a milling size of 0.2 mm and more than 30 g of grain are used, and as such presents an opportunity for its increased use in Irish distilleries.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Non-starch polysaccharides in wheat are dominated by arabinoxylan (AX). Endo-1,4-β-xylanase (EC 3.2.1.8) is the most important enzyme for degrading AX. This paper investigated the ability of endo-1,4-β-xylanase extracted from wheat malt to degrade non-water-extractable wheat-derived arabinoxylan (WUAX). RESULTS The enzyme was observed to break down wheat-derived WUAX effectively, substantially increasing the concentration of water-extractable arabinoxylan (WEAX) in the system for up to 6 h. A considerable quantity of arabinose xylooligosaccharide (AXOS) was also produced, suggesting that the enzyme could produce oligosaccharides too. The molecular weight of the product WEAX was between 23 and 27 kDa and the content of oligosaccharides changed with degradation time. This suggests that endo-1,4-β-xylanase can not only degrade WUAX into WEAX and xylooligosaccharides but can also degrade the xylooligosaccharides with larger molecular weights into xylobiose and xylotriose. The viscosity of the degradation product increased significantly in the first 2 h, then decreased with longer degradation times. The concentration of WEAX in the reaction system increased throughout the reaction but at gradually lower rates, indicating that the endo-1,4-β-xylanase degraded WEAX better than it degraded WUAX. Rheological tests showed that solutions prepared from the WEAX that was produced had properties of a pseudoplastic fluid. CONCLUSION The results showed that the wheat malt endo-1,4-β-xylanase, which we had previously tested on WEAX, was also effective in degrading wheat-derived WUAX. This study can therefore provide a theoretical basis for the subsequent role of the enzyme in other sources of xylan, and provide guidance for the quality control of beer in the brewing process. © 2021 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Beer is one of the most widely consumed alcoholic beverages in the world; however, traditional - and non-alcoholic beer consumption appear to have different effects on the cardiovascular system. In this short work, we review a base of recent papers to confirm whether, or not, moderate consumption of beer and its non-alcoholic components have a beneficial effect of cardiovascular system. Moreover, the present work reviews recently published papers regarding the influence of beer components on the hemostasis, cardiovascular system, and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). Although most nutritional guidelines recommend a maximum of one beer per day for women and two for men, individual ideals may vary according to age, sex, genetics and body type, as well as drug or supplement use. Moreover, the recommendations for the moderate consumption of beer are often based on individual case reports and often small clinical experiments. In addition, as the health-related effects of beer consumption may also depend on the presence of other dietary components, as well as the type of beer, it is difficult to determine whether moderate consumption is universally safe and beneficial for the cardiovascular system. More randomized clinical trials are needed to determine this. Well-designed clinical trials are also required to determine the influence of various beer components on hemostasis and CVDs, and their effects in combination with drug or supplement therapy.

Abstract
Arabinoxylan is the second most abundant component in the endosperm cell wall of barley and it has been shown to have negative effects on the viscosity and filtration rate of wort and beer. In this study, a glycoside hydrolase (GH) family 62 α-L-arabinofuranosidase (AFase), termed as TrAbf62A, was purified from the culture filtrate of Trichoderma reesei CICC 41495 by a combined chromatographic method. The preferred substrates of the purified TrAbf62A were soluble, highly substituted arabinoxylan oligosaccharides and polymers, similar to the type found in barley grain. TrAbf62A exhibited activity towards oligomeric and polymeric arabinoxylans, as well as colorimetric arabinose-based substrates, thus meeting the criteria to be classified as a type B AFase. TrAbf62A released mainly arabinose and xylose from soluble wheat arabinoxylan, thus indicating a dual lytic enzyme activity. Supplementation of TrAbf62A during mashing, with a loading of 12 mU/g malt, resulted in a 36.3% decrease in arabinoxylan polymer content, a 5.6% reduction in viscosity, and finally, a 22.1% increase in filtration rate. These results revealed that TrAbf62A has a high potential value in improving lautering performance during mashing.
