abstract = "The ageing process of alcoholic beverages in presence of wood is a
significant label of their quality, in which important changes in aroma, color,
taste and astringency occur due to the interaction between compounds
present in the wood and beverages. In Balkan countries, several wood
species such as oak, cherry, black locust, and mulberry can be used in that
process.
Cyclic voltammetry is simple, rapid and inexpensive method that could be
used for measurement of antioxidant capacity. To our knowledge, cyclic
voltammetry has not been implemented in characterization of wood
extracts before. Therefore, the aim of our work was to characterize the 60%
ethanolic extracts of different wood species commonly used in Balkan
cooperage (reproducing the condition of ageing process) by cyclic
voltammetry and to investigate differences among wood species.
Our results showed that cyclic voltammetry can distinguish investigated
wood species, which points to the phenolic profile unique for the wood
specie. The same class of wood extract shows similar behavior (based on
the peaks position) indicating the presence of the same phenolic
compounds. Also, differences based on the current areas are strongly
correlated with the geographical origin of the wood. Present study allows
application of the rapid, reagentless and sensitive method for the
monitoring of the phenolic profiles of the wood, and determination of
geographical and botanical origin. Additionally, proposed approach, offers
fast and reliable determination of the quality of the used wood barrel, as an
important and beneficial fact for the producers of alcoholic beverages.",
