Metabolite profiling and volatiles of pineapple wine and vinegar obtained from pineapple waste

Vinegar is an inexpensive commodity, and economic considerations require that a relatively low-cost raw material be used for its production. An investigation into the use of a new, alternative substrate – pineapple waste – is described. This approach enables the utilization of the pineapple’s (Ananas comosus) peels and core, which are usually discarded during the processing or consumption of the fruit. Using physical and enzymatic treatments,...
