Y. Vasserot et al., STUDY OF ANTHOCYANIN ADSORPTION BY YEAST LEES - EFFECT OF SOME PHYSICOCHEMICAL PARAMETERS, American journal of enology and viticulture, 48(4), 1997, pp. 433-437
In order to replace charcoal as an agent for reducing color in colored
musts and wines, the capacity of yeast lees to bind anthocyanins was
investigated in a model system. The effect of yeast lees on anthocyani
n adsorption depends on the chemical structure of anthocyanins and is
sensitive to physicochemical parameters such as ethanol concentration,
temperature, pH, and SO2 concentration.
