| Abstract: | P. ROMANO, G. SUZZI, V. BRANDOLINI, E. MENZIANI AND P. DOMIZIO. 1996. High performance thin layer chromatography with automated multiple development was used to determine 2,3-butanediol levels in wine produced by high and low acetoin-forming strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae . An inverse correlation between acetoin and 2,3-butanediol content was found suggesting a leaky mutation in acetoin reductase of the low 2,3-butanediol producing strains. |
