Linoleic and linolenic acid hydroperoxides in malt, mash, or wort were determined with high sensitivity and high selectivity by the chemiluminescence-high performance liquid chromatography (CL-HPLC) method using isoluminol-microperoxidase solution as a luminescing reagent. The determination limit of this method for both hydroperoxides was 0.1 μM in mash or wort. During the mashing in a laboratory mash bath, the hydroperoxides started to increase just after mashing-in, reached a maximum at 65°C, and then decreased. Though the hydroperoxides were detected in mash just before the lautering in a pilot scale brewing, they disappeared during the lautering and could not be detected during the subsequent stages of wort production. Therefore, it was thought that the mashing process is the most important of the lipid oxidation reactions during wort production. It is also expected that the CL-HPLC method can give useful information on lipid oxidation mechanisms during wort production. |
