RT journal article T1 Application of Microwaves as an Advanced Technique for the Development of Sherry Vinegar Macerated with Pineapple A1 Párraga, Samuel A1 Durán Guerrero, Enrique A1 Castro Mejías, Remedios A2 Química Analítica K1 sherry vinegar K1 pineapple K1 microwaves K1 ultrasound K1 volatile compounds K1 sensory analysis AB This work proposes the elaboration of a product based on the maceration of SherryVinegar together with pineapple in order to extract certain volatile compounds that can be foundin pineapples, giving a final product with new organoleptic properties and increased polyphenoliccontent. Maceration trials were carried out with the application of microwaves and ultrasound,which reduced the maceration time from the traditional three-day solid-liquid maceration to just afew minutes. In addition, through maceration, the total polyphenol index increased significantly withrespect to unmacerated vinegar, and the volatile profile of the vinegars was significantly modified.The tasting scores placed the pineapple macerated vinegar sample obtained by traditional macerationin the first place with respect to pineapple aroma; however, the microwave extraction samples werebetter rated in terms of overall quality. It can be concluded that the application of extracting energies,such as microwaves, can be a viable alternative for the production of sherry vinegar maceratedwith pineapple.
