Abstract
AIMS To assess the capability of Pichia kudriavzevii strains isolated from wine, cider, and natural environments in North Patagonia to produce ciders with reduced malic acid levels. METHODS AND RESULTS Fermentation kinetics and malic acid consumption were assessed in synthetic media and in regional acidic apple musts. All P. kudriavzevii strains degraded malic acid and grew in synthetic media with malic acid as the sole carbon source. Among these strains, those isolated from cider exhibited higher fermentative capacity, mainly due to increased fructose utilization; however, a low capacity to consume sucrose present in the must was also observed for all strains. The NPCC1651 cider strain stood out for its malic acid consumption ability in high-malic acid Granny Smith apple must. Additionally, this strain produced high levels of glycerol as well as acceptable levels of acetic acid. On the other hand, Saccharomyces cerevisiae ÑIF8 reference strain isolated from Patagonian wine completely consumed reducing sugars and sucrose and showed an important capacity for malic acid consumption in apple must fermentations. CONCLUSIONS Pichia kudriavzevii NPCC1651 strain isolated from cider evidenced interesting features for the consumption of malic acid and fructose in ciders.

Abstract
Cider flavor has a very important impact on the quality. Solid-phase microextraction-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (SPME-GC-MS) combined with gas chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry (GC-IMS) tested different kinds of non-Saccharomyces yeasts and Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S. cerevisiae) co-inoculated for the fermentation of cider to determine differences in aroma material, and the determination of odor activity value (OAV) is applied less frequently in research. Through Rhodotorula mucilaginosa, Debaryomyces hansenii, Zygosaccharomyces bailii, and Kluyveromyces Marxianus, four different strains of non-Saccharomyces yeast fermented cider, and it was found that, in both the chemical composition and flavor of material things, compared with monoculture-fermented cider using S. cerevisiae, all differences were significant. Co-inoculated fermentation significantly improved the flavor and taste of cider. As in the volatile compounds of OVA > 1, octanoic acid (Sc 633.88 μg/L, co-inoculation fermented group 955.49 μg/L) provides vegetable cheese fragrance and decanoic acid, ethyl ester (Sc 683.19 μg/L, co-inoculation fermented group 694.98 μg/L) a creamy fruity fragrance, etc., and the average content increased after co-inoculated fermentation. Phenylethyl alcohol, which can produce a rose scent, was relatively abundant in cider samples and varied greatly among the groups. Moreover, the contents of ethyl lactate and 1-butanol in the Sc+Rm (ciders fermented by S. cerevisiae and R. mucilaginosa) were the highest of all of the cider samples. Different types of non-Saccharomyces yeast produced cider with different flavor characteristics. This study demonstrates that different species of non-Saccharomyces yeast do have an important impact on the characteristics of cider and that co-inoculation with non-Saccharomyces yeast and S. cerevisiae for cider fermentation may be a strategy to improve the flavor of cider.

Abstract
The fermentation process and composition of volatile compounds play a crucial role in the production of Huaniu apple cider. This study aimed to optimize the fermentation conditions of Huaniu apple cider and quantify its volatile compounds using headspace solid-phase microextraction-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC/MS). The optimal fermentation parameters were determined using response surface methodology (RSM). The optimal fermentation temperature was 25.48 °C, initial soluble solids were 18.90 degrees Brix, inoculation amount was 8.23%, and initial pH was 3.93. The fermentation rate was determined to be 3.0, and the predicted value from the verification test was 3.014. This finding demonstrated the excellent predictability of a RSM-optimized fermentation test for Huaniu apple cider, indicating the reliability of the process conditions. Moreover, the analysis of volatile compounds in the optimized Huaniu cider identified 72 different ingredients, including 41 esters, 16 alcohols, 6 acids, and 9 other substances. Notably, the esters exhibited high levels of ethyl acetate, ethyl octanoate, and ethyl capricate. Similarly, the alcohols demonstrated higher levels of 3-methyl-1-butanol, phenethylethanol, and 2-methyl-1-propanol, while the acids displayed increased concentrations of acetic acid, caproic acid, and caprylic acid. This study provides the essential technical parameters required for the preparation of Huaniu apple cider while also serving as a valuable reference for investigating its distinct flavor profile.

Abstract
Film-forming yeasts are potential sources of defects in alcoholic beverages. The aim of this study is to assess the growth capacity of Pichia and Candida film-forming yeasts in cider and wine and the effects on their chemical composition. Cider, partially and fully fermented wine were inoculated with strains of C. californica, P. fermentans, P. kluyveri, P. kudriavzevii, P. manshurica, and P. membranifaciens to simulate a post-fermentative contamination. The former three species grew only in cider. Pichia manshurica and P. kudriavzevii displayed high viability in wine up to 13.18% (v v-1) ethanol. Significant changes in odour-active molecules from different chemical groups were observed in cider and wine in the inoculated samples, compared to the non-inoculated ones. Cider is more susceptible to contamination by all of the species tested, due to its low alcohol content, while P. membranifaciens, P. manshurica, and P. kudriavzevii are additionally potential spoilage agents of wine. This study highlights the risk of cider and wine contamination by film-forming yeasts. Their impact on aroma profiles depends on their ability to grow and their metabolism. This study contributes to an understanding of the possible physiological and metabolic mechanisms responsible for film formation and chemical changes in alcoholic beverages.

Abstract
This study explored the effect of the combination of Saccharomyces yeast, non-Saccharomyces yeast (Pichia kudriavzevii), and Lactiplantibacillus plantarum during cider fermentation on physicochemical properties, antioxidant activities, flavor and aroma compounds, as well as sensory qualities. Ciders fermented with the triple mixed-cultures of these three species showed lower acid and alcohol content than those fermented with the single-culture of S. cerevisiae. The antioxidant activities were enhanced by the triple mixed-culture fermentation, giving a higher 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging rate and total antioxidant capacity; specifically, the SPL5 cider showed the highest DPPH radical scavenging rate (77.28%), while the SPL2 gave the highest total antioxidant capacity (39.57 mmol/L). Additionally, the triple mixed-culture fermentation resulted in improved flavor and aroma with a lower acidity (L-malic acid) and higher aroma compounds (Esters), when compared with the single-culture fermented ciders (Saccharomyces cerevisiae); more specifically, the SPL4 cider resulted in the highest total flavor and aroma compounds. In addition, sensory evaluation demonstrated that ciders produced using the triple mixed-cultures gained higher scores than those fermented using the single-culture of S. cerevisiae, giving better floral aroma, fruity flavor, and overall acceptability. Therefore, our results indicated that the triple mixed-cultures (S. cerevisiae, P. kudriavzevii, and L. plantarum) were found to make up some enological shortages of the single S. cerevisiae fermented cider. This study is believed to provide a potential strategy to enhance cider quality and further give a reference for new industrial development protocols for cider fermentation that have better sensory qualities with higher antioxidant properties.

Abstract
Phageomes are known to play a key role in the functioning of their associated microbial communities. The phageomes of fermented foods have not been studied thoroughly in fermented foods yet, and even less in fermented beverages. Two approaches were employed to investigate the presence of phages in cider, a fermented beverage made from apple, during a fermentation process of two cider tanks, one from an industrial producer and one from a hand-crafted producer. The phageome (free lytic phages) was explored in cider samples with several methodological developments for total phage DNA extraction, along with single phage isolation. Concentration methods, such as tangential flow filtration, flocculation and classical phage concentration methods, were employed and tested to extract free phage particles from cider. This part of the work revealed a very low occurrence of free lytic phage particles in cider. In parallel, a prophage investigation during the fermentation process was also performed using a metagenomic approach on the total bacterial genomic DNA. Prophages in bacterial metagenomes in the two cider tanks seemed also to occur in low abundance, as a total of 1174 putative prophages were identified in the two tanks overtime, and only two complete prophages were revealed. Prophage occurrence was greater at the industrial producer than at the hand-crafted producer, and different dynamics of prophage trends were also observed during fermentation. This is the first report dealing with the investigation of the phageome and of prophages throughout a fermentation process of a fermented beverage.

Abstract
The present work studied the fermentative potential and carbon metabolism of an indigenous yeast isolated from Lebanese apples for cider production. The indigenous yeast strain was isolated from a spontaneous fermented juice of the Lebanese apple variety 'Ace spur'. The sequencing of the Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS) domain of rRNA identified the isolated yeast strain as a member of the Hanseniaspora genus. These results suggest an intragenomic ITS sequence heterogeneity in the isolated yeast strain specifically in its ITS1 domain. The different investigations on the yeast carbon metabolism revealed that the isolated yeast is 'Crabtree positive' and can produce and accumulate ethanol from the first hours of fermentation. Thus, our findings highlight the possibility of using the isolated indigenous Hanseniaspora strain as a sole fermentative agent during cider production.

Abstract
Several bioactives from fruit juices and beverages like phenolics, nucleotides and polar lipids (PL) have exhibited anti-platelet cardio-protective properties. However, apple juice and cider lipid bioactives have not been evaluated so far. The aim of this study was to investigate the anti-platelet and anti-inflammatory effects and structure activity relationships of Irish apple juice and Real Irish cider lipid bioactives against the platelet-activating factor (PAF)- and adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-related thrombotic and inflammatory manifestations in human platelets. Total Lipids (TL) were extracted from low, moderate and high in tannins apple juices and from their derived-through-fermentation cider products, as well as from commercial apple juice and cider. These were separated into neutral lipids (NL) and PL, while all lipid extracts were further assessed for their ability to inhibit aggregation of human platelets induced by PAF and ADP. In all cases, PL exhibited the strongest anti-platelet bioactivities and were further separated by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis into PL subclasses/fractions that were also assessed for their antiplatelet potency. The PL from low in tannins apple juice exhibited the strongest antiplatelet effects against PAF and ADP, while PL from its fermented cider product were less active. Moreover, the phosphatidylcholines (PC) in apple juices and the phosphatidylethanolamines (PE) in apple ciders were the most bioactive HPLC-derived PL subclasses against PAF-induced platelet aggregation. Structural elucidation of the fatty acid composition by gas chromatography mass spectra (GCMS) analysis showed that PL from all samples are rich in beneficial monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) and omega 3 (n-3) polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), providing a possible explanation for their strong anti-platelet properties, while the favorable low levels of their omega-6/omega-3 (n-6/n-3) PUFA ratio, especially for the bioactive PC and PE subclasses, further support an anti-inflammatory cardio-protective potency for these apple products. In conclusion, Irish apple juice and Real Irish cider were found to possess bioactive PL compounds with strong antiplatelet and anti-inflammatory properties, while fermentation seems to be an important modulating factor on their lipid content, structures and bioactivities. However, further studies are needed to evaluate these effects.

Abstract
Acrolein occasionally appears in cider, completely spoiling its quality due to its bitter taste. It is crucial to detect it in the early steps, before the taste is severely affected, to apply the appropriate treatment. A simple and rapid analytical method to determine this compound in cider is therefore desirable. In this work, a quantitative determination method of acrolein in cider is proposed using the proton nuclear magnetic resonance technique (1H NMR). Acrolein produces a doublet signal in the spectrum at 9.49 ppm, whose area is used to determine the concentration of this compound. 3-(trimethylsilyl)-2,2,3,3-d4-propionic acid sodium salt is added to the cider as a reference for 0.00 ppm and 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid as an internal standard for acrolein determination. The method is validated by gas chromatography (GC). There is a good correlation between the acrolein concentrations obtained by 1H NMR and by gas chromatography in different commercial ciders (Pearson coefficient 0.9994). The 95% confidence interval for the intercept is 0.15 ± 0.49 (includes 0) and for the slope is 0.98 ± 0.03 (includes 1). When applying the paired t test, no significant difference is observed. The proposed method is direct, and no prior derivatization is needed.

Abstract
European legislation overall agrees that apple juice concentrate is allowed to be used to some extent in cider production. However, no comprehensive research is available to date on the differences in suitability for fermentation between fresh apple juice and that of reconstituted apple juice concentrate. This study aimed to apply freshly pressed juice and juice concentrate made from the same apple cultivar as a substrate for cider fermentation. Differences in yeast performance in terms of fermentation kinetics and consumption of nutrients have been assessed. Fermented ciders were compared according to volatile ester composition and off-flavor formation related to hydrogen sulfide. Based on the results, in the samples fermented with the concentrate, the yeasts consumed less fructose. The formation of long-chain fatty acid esters increased with the use of reconstituted juice concentrate while the differences in off-flavor formation could not be determined. Overall, the use of the concentrate can be considered efficient enough for the purpose of cider fermentation. However, some nutritional supplementation might be required to support the vitality of yeast.

Despite the diversifications, cider producers are confronted with similar issues and risks. The nature of the raw material, also known as the fermentation medium, plays a key role in fermentation. A well-defined composition of apples is, therefore, required to produce cider with good quality. In addition, ferment and its metabolism are important factors in the fermentation process. The producers of cider and other alcoholic beverages are looking in general for novel yeast strains or for the use of native strains to produce "authentic" and diversified beverages that are distinct from each other, and that attract more and more consumers. Research articles on cider production are infrequent compared to wine production, especially on the impact of the chemical composition and microbial diversity of apples on fermentation. Even though the processing of fermented beverages is close in terms of microbial interactions and production, the study of the specific properties of apples and the production challenges of cider production is advantageous and meaningful for cider producers. This review summarizes the current knowledge on apple composition and the impact of the must composition on fermentation and yeast growth. In addition, the microbial diversity of cider, activities, and its influence on fermentation are reviewed.

Abstract
Providing yeast with the right amount of mineral salts before fermentation can contribute to improving the entire technological process, resulting in a better-quality final product. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of apple must supplementation with mineral salts ((NH4)2SO4, MgSO4, (NH4)3PO4)) on enological parameters, antioxidant activity, total polyphenol content, and the profile of volatile cider compounds fermented with various yeast strains. Rubin cultivar must was inoculated with wine, cider, and distillery or wild yeast strains. Various mineral salts and their mixtures were introduced into the must in doses from 0.167 g/L to 0.5 g/L. The control sample consisted of ciders with no added mineral salts. The basic enological parameters, antioxidant properties, total polyphenol content, and their profile, as well as the composition of volatile compounds, were assessed in ciders. Must supplementation with magnesium salts significantly influenced the use of the analyzed element by yeast cells and was dependent on the yeast strain. In supplemented samples, a decrease in alcohol concentration and total acidity, as well as an increase in the content of extract and total polyphenols, was observed compared to the controls. The addition of ammonium salts caused a decrease in the amount of higher alcohols and magnesium salts, as well as a decrease in the concentration of some esters in ciders.

Abstract
The fermentation of apple juice into hard cider is a complex biochemical process that transforms sugars into alcohols by yeast, of which Saccharomyces cerevisiae is the most widely used species. Among many factors, hydrogen sulfide (H2S) production by yeast during cider fermentation is affected by yeast strain and yeast assimilable nitrogen (YAN) concentration in the apple juice. In this study, we investigated the regulatory mechanism of YAN concentration on S. cerevisiae H2S formation. Two S. cerevisiae strains, UCD522 (a H2S-producing strain) and UCD932 (a non-H2S-producing strain), were used to ferment apple juice that had Low, Intermediate, and High diammonium phosphate (DAP) supplementation. Cider samples were collected 24 and 72 h after yeast inoculation. Using RNA-Seq, differentially expressed genes (DEGs) identification and annotation, Gene Ontology (GO), and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment, we found that gene expression was dependent on yeast strain, fermentation duration, H2S formation, and the interaction of these three factors. For UCD522, under the three DAP treatments, a total of 30 specific GO terms were identified. Of the 18 identified KEGG pathways, “Sulfur metabolism,” “Glycine, serine and threonine metabolism,” and “Biosynthesis of amino acids” were significantly enriched. Both GO and KEGG analyses revealed that the “Sulfate Reduction Sequence (SRS) pathway” was significantly enriched. We also found a complex relationship between H2S production and stress response genes. For UCD522, we confirm that there is a non-linear relationship between YAN and H2S production, with the Low and Intermediate treatments having greater H2S production than the High treatment. By integrating results obtained through the transcriptomic analysis with yeast physiological data, we present a mechanistic view into the H2S production by yeast as a result of different concentrations of YAN during cider fermentation.

Abstract
Bacteriophages (phages) are considered the most abundant biological entities on Earth. An increasing interest in understanding phage communities, also called viromes or phageomes, has arisen over the past decade especially thanks to the development and the accessibility of Next Generation Sequencing techniques. Despite the increasing amount of available metagenomic data on microbial communities in various habitats, viromes remain poorly described in the scientific literature particularly when it comes to fermented food and beverages such as wine and cider. In this review, a particular attention is paid to the current knowledge on phage communities, with a special focus on fermented food viromes and the methodological tools available to undertake their study. There is a striking lack of available data on the fermented foods and beverages viromes. As far as we know, and although a number of phages have been isolated from wine, no general study has to date been carried out to assess the diversity of viromes in fermented beverages and their possible interactions with microbiota throughout the fermentation process. With the aim of establishing connections between the currently used technologies to carry out the analysis of viromes, possible applications of current knowledge to fermented beverages are examined.

Abstract
The micro-oxygenation of musts may affect the quality of a finished alcoholic beverage. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of micro-oxygenation at various stages of fermentation on oenological parameters, antioxidant activity, total polyphenol content, and profile of volatile cider compounds fermented with various yeast strains. Rubin cultivar must was inoculated with wine yeast, cider yeast, distillery yeast, and wild yeast strains. Some of the inoculated samples were oxygenated immediately after yeast inoculation, and some on the second and third fermentation days. The control sample was non-oxygenated must fermented in bottles. Higher extract concentration and acidity as well as lower potency were observed in cider treated with micro-oxygenation. Must oxygenation in most cases contributed to the reduction of polyphenol content and to the antioxidant activity of ciders, especially when fermented using wild yeast. The oxygenation of musts before fermentation caused an increase in the content of esters and alcohols in ciders. However, the oxygenation of musts during fermentation reduced the concentration of these volatile components. The oxygenation of musts during fermentation produced a differentiated effect on terpenoid concentration in ciders.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of the present study was to evaluate the fermentation efficiency of freeze-dried immobilized kefir culture on natural supports (apple pieces, delignified cellulosic material) in cider making at various temperatures (5-45 °C) in comparison with freeze-dried free cells. Freeze-dried cells were initially tested in apple juice fermentations at 30 °C, and then the freeze-dried cultures produced with no cryoprotectants were assessed in repeated batch fermentations. RESULTS Repeated batch fermentations lasted for longer than 5 months. High malic acid conversion rates (up to 78.5%) and ethanol productivity values (up to 37.9 g L-1 day-1 ) were recorded for freeze-dried immobilized cells. Polymerase chain reaction - denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (PCR-DGGE) analysis showed that freeze-drying had no effect on the microbial diversity of kefir culture. Higher alcohols were significantly reduced at low fermentation temperatures. Application of principal component analysis (PCA) revealed that both the fermentation temperature and the nature of the freeze-dried kefir culture affected significantly the minor volatiles determined by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). Notably, all ciders produced were of high quality and were accepted by the tasting panel. CONCLUSIONS Freeze-dried immobilized kefir culture on natural supports with no cryoprotectants was found to be suitable for simultaneous alcoholic and malolactic cider fermentation at various temperatures (5-45 °C). The high operational stability of the systems was confirmed and the results obtained are of great interest for the industrial sector as they could be exploited for cider, low-alcohol cider, or 'soft' cider production. © 2020 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
SCOPE Fruit-derived drinks consumption is considered beneficial due to the antioxidant and neuroprotective effects of polyphenols separately, but studies including their total constituents are scarce. In this work, the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory neuroprotective effects of apple-derived beverages are determined in a mouse model of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammation. METHODS AND RESULTS Preliminary antioxidant and neuroinflammatory experiments are carried out with 15 drink polyphenolic extracts in SH-SY5Y and BV2 cells, using H2 O2 as pro-oxidant and LPS as pro-inflammatory stimulus, respectively. Extracts improve antioxidant systems functioning and present neuroprotective mitochondrial-related effects. In microglia, extracts reduce reactive oxygen species and modulate cytokine release. To better mimic human consumption, four concentrated dealcoholized apple-derived drinks (three ciders and apple juice) are supplied to mice for 7 days in substitution of drinking water. Mice treated with beverages present reduced brain oxidative stress and inflammatory markers after LPS injection. Interestingly, genetic expression of antioxidant enzymes and glutathione levels are also greatly augmented after drink intake. CONCLUSION The results confirm the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory-mediated neuroprotective properties of apple-derived drinks, suggesting that their consumption could be a good approach for prevention of neurodegenerative disorders. To the authors' knowledge, this is the first description of cider neuroprotective effects.

Abstract
Volatile aromatic compounds have a major impact on the final organoleptic properties of cider, and their profiles are influenced by a number of parameters that are closely related to production technologies, especially with regard to the raw material, the microorganism used and the fermentation process. In this work, the profiles of volatile compounds (4 fatty acids, 6 higher alcohols and 12 esters) from 34 European ciders were studied using HS-SPME-GC-MS. Volatiles were isolated by HS-SPME using a CAR/PDMS fiber. Analytical data were statistically evaluated using principal component analysis, and differences in composition of volatiles between cider produced using "intensified" technologies and that of ciders produced by traditional production processes were demonstrated. This difference was mainly due to varying contents of some higher alcohols (2-methylpropanol, isoamyl alcohols, hexanol, and butane-2,3-diol) and esters (ethyl 2-methylbutanoate, butylacetate, and hexyl acetate).

Abstract
Ethylphenols are strong odorants produced by microbial activity that are described as off flavors in several foods. Lactobacillus plantarum is a lactic acid bacterial species able to produce ethylphenols by the reduction of vinylphenols during the metabolism of hydroxycinnamic acids. However, the reductase involved has not been yet uncovered. In this study, the involvement in vinylphenol reduction of a gene encoding a putative reductase (lp_3125) was confirmed by the absence of reduction activity in the Δlp_3125 knockout mutant. The protein encoded by lp_3125, VprA, was recombinantly produced in Escherichia coli VprA was assayed against vinylphenols (4-vinylphenol, 4-vinylcatechol, and 4-vinylguaiacol), and all were reduced to their corresponding ethylphenols (4-ethylphenol, 4-ethylcatechol, and 4-ethylguaiacol). PCR and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) detection methods revealed that the VprA reductase is not widely distributed among the lactic acid bacteria studied and that only the bacteria possessing the vprA gene were able to produce ethylphenol from vinylphenol. However, all the species belonging to the L. plantarum group were ethylphenol producers. The identification of the L. plantarum VprA protein involved in hydroxycinnamate degradation completes the route of degradation of these compounds in lactic acid bacteria.IMPORTANCE The presence of volatile phenols is considered a major organoleptic defect of several fermented alcoholic beverages. The biosynthesis of these compounds has been mainly associated with Brettanomyces/Dekkera yeasts. However, the potential importance of lactic acid bacteria in volatile phenol spoilage is emphasized by reports describing a faster ethylphenol production by these bacteria than by yeasts. The genetic identification of the bacterial vinylphenol reductase involved in volatile phenol production provides new insights into the role of lactic acid bacteria in the production of these off flavors. The development of a molecular method for the detection of ethylphenol-producing bacteria could be helpful to design strategies to reduce the bacterial production of vinylphenols in fermented foods.

Abstract
Yeast assimilable nitrogen (YAN) is essential for yeast growth and metabolism during apple (Malus x domestica Borkh.) cider fermentation. YAN concentration and composition can impact cider fermentation kinetics and the formation of volatile aroma compounds by yeast. The YAN concentration and composition of apples grown in Virginia, USA over the course of two seasons was determined through analysis of both free amino nitrogen (FAN) and ammonium ion concentration. FAN was the largest fraction of YAN, with a mean value of 51 mg N L-1 FAN compared to 9 mg N L-1 ammonium. Observed YAN values ranged from nine to 249 mg N L-1, with a mean value of 59 mg N L-1. Ninety-four percent of all samples analyzed in this study contained <140 mg N L-1 YAN, a concentration generally considered the minimum level needed in grape-based wines for yeast to fully utilize all of the fermentable sugars. FAN concentration was correlated with total YAN concentration, but ammonium concentration was not. Likewise, there was no correlation between FAN and ammonium concentration.

Abstract
Producers of apple-based beverages are confronted with colloidal instability. Haze is caused by interactions between molecules that lead to the formation of aggregates. Haze composition in three apple-based beverages, namely, French sparkling cider, apple juice, and pommeau, was studied. Phenolic compounds, proteins, polysaccharides, and minerals were analyzed using global and detailed analytical methods. The results explained <75% (w/w) of haze dry mass. Polyphenols, represented mainly by procyanidins, were the main compounds identified and accounted for 10-31% of haze. However, oxidized phenolic compounds were probably underestimated and may represent a high proportion of haze. Proteins were present in all of the samples in proportions of <6% of haze except in two apple juice hazes, where they were the main constituents (18 and 24%). Polysaccharides accounted for 0-30% of haze. Potassium and calcium were the main minerals.

Abstract
Production of fermented apple beverages is spread all around the world with specificities in each country. 'French ciders' refer to fermented apple juice mainly produced in the northwest of France and often associated with short periods of consumption. Research articles on this kind of product are scarce compared to wine, especially on phenomena associated with microbial activities. The wine fermentation microbiome and its dynamics, organoleptic improvement for healthy and pleasant products and development of starters are now widely studied. Even if both beverages seem close in terms of microbiome and process (with both alcoholic and malolactic fermentations), the inherent properties of the raw materials and different production and environmental parameters make research on the specificities of apple fermentation beverages worthwhile. This review summarizes current knowledge on the cider microbial ecosystem, associated activities and the influence of process parameters. In addition, available data on cider quality and safety is reviewed. Finally, we focus on the future role of lactic acid bacteria and yeasts in the development of even better or new beverages made from apples.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this work was to find the effect of polyphenolic compounds in Basque ciders on the following parameters: antioxidant activity, browning, protein-precipitating capacity, turbidity and reduction potential. These five parameters are highly important, as they affect the taste, the visual aspect and the preservation of cider, and are mainly related to polyphenolic compounds. RESULTS Procyanidin B1 and procyanidin B2 showed a significant positive effect on antioxidant activity. p-Coumaric acid, (-)-epicatechin and hyperin had a significant positive effect on protein-precipitating capacity. Tyrosol had a significant negative effect on reduction potential. CONCLUSION Procyanidin B1 and procyanidin B2 are the most powerful antioxidants in Basque cider, while p-coumaric acid, (-)-epicatechin and hyperin are those with greatest capacity to precipitate proteins. Ciders with higher tyrosol concentration will have less reduction potential and higher antioxidant reservoir.

Abstract
This paper presents a data set derived from the analysis of bottled and canned ciders that may be used for comparison with suspected counterfeit or substitute products. Isotopic analysis of the solid residues from ciders (predominantly sugar) provided a means to determine the addition of C4 plant sugars. The added sugars were found to comprise cane sugar, high-fructose corn syrup, glucose, or combinations. The majority of ciders from Australia and New Zealand were found to contain significant amounts of added sugar, which provided a limited means to distinguish these ciders from European ciders. The hydrogen and oxygen isotopic compositions of the whole ciders (predominantly water) were shown to be controlled by two factors, the water available to the parent plant and evaporation. Analysis of data derived from both isotopic and chemical analysis of ciders provided a means to discriminate between regions and countries of manufacture.

Abstract
Nine samples of Asturias cider have been analyzed for volatile, olfactometric, and sensorial profiles. The aromatic composition was mainly constituted by fusel alcohols and ethyl esters. Among the minor volatile compounds, fatty acids, volatile phenols, and alcohols were the main components. The olfactometric analysis revealed the existence of 55 aromatic areas, exhibiting a wide range of intensities. Components like amyl alcohols, 2-phenylethanol, ethyl esters such as 2-methylbutyrate, hexanoate and octanoate, hexanoic and octanoic acids 2-phenylethyl acetate, 4-ethyl guaiacol, and 4-ethyl phenol could be considered as being part of the structure of cider aroma. The extract dilution analysis of one extract identified 2 volatile phenols (4-ethyl guaiacol and 4-ethyl phenol) among the most powerful odorants in cider. These components gave significant correlations with the sensory attributes sweet, spicy, and lees.

Abstract
Ten strains of Pediococcus spp. causing ropiness were isolated from Basque Country spoiled ciders and characterized with regards to growth at different pHs, temperatures, and ethanol and SO2 concentrations. They grew well at pHs above 3.7 and failed to grow at temperatures over 37°C. In addition, they were tolerant to 10% ethanol and to 15, 25, and 50 mg/l total SO2 (pH 3.8). A selected ropy strain was used to carry out plasmid DNA analysis; the agarose gel pattern showed the presence of 6 bands of plasmid DNA. Plasmid-curing experiments with ethidium bromide and novobiocin suggested that the ropy phenotype was encoded by plasmid DNA. In addition, this nonropy strain lost its resistance to oleandomycin after curing trials.

Abstract
Ropy strains of heterolactic Lactobacillus spp. were isolated from bottled spoiled ciders produced in the Basque Country. The isolates were able to produce slime experimentally on glucose containing medium and apple must. The production of ropy slime occurred during exponential growth and the increase in viscosity was correlated with production of polysaccharide. They were characterized with regards to growth at different pH, sulfur dioxide (SO2), ethanol and temperatures and showed similar behavior. All ropy strains grew in the presence of high ethanol concentrations (15%) and at low temperatures (10 and 15°C). In addition, these were tolerant to 10, 25 and 50 mg/l of total SO2 (pH 3.8), but with longer lag times as the concentration of SO2, increased. However, the ropy lactobacilli studied were affected by the pH of the medium and in general pH below 3.7 limited their growth seriously.
