F. 8 What are the pros and cons of using pectinase when preparing a white must? S. Spayd Grape cell walls are composed of cellulose, hemicellulose, and pectins. As grapes ripen, the integrity of the cells and their walls begins to break down and cells become leaky. The pectin that cements the cells together is also degraded. The rate of these changes is not sufficiently fast to aid juice release between crushing and press operations in white grapes.
Most commercial pectic enzyme solutions are made using a strain or strains of the mold Aspergillus niger and have multiple enzyme activities. In addition to pectinase, these preparations often contain cellulases and hemicellulases. As the names imply, cellulase catalyzes the breakdown of cellulose to more simple carbohydrates, while hemicellulases do the same to hemicellulose. In addition to these activities, other enzymes may also be present in commercial preparations. Some preparations may contain -glucosidase that cleaves glucose molecules from other compounds such as flavor volatiles.
