Enantioselective fate of mandipropamid in grape and during processing of grape wine.

Abstract

Enantioselective monitoring of chiral fungicide mandipropamid enantiomers were carried out in grapes and wine-making process. The enantiomers of mandipropamid were separated on a Lux Cellulose-2 column and determined by ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS). The processing procedure included washing, fermentation, and clarification. Significant enantioselectivity was observed in grape under field conditions and during wine-making processing. The half-lives of R-mandipropamid and S-mandipropamid were 5.63days and 7.79days under field conditions 43.3h and 69.3h during wine-making processing, respectively. The EF values ranged from 0.498 to 0.283 in grape under field conditions, and the EF values were from 0.458 (0h) to 0.362 (312h) during the whole fermentation process. The results indicated that R-mandipropamid degraded faster than S-mandipropamid in grape under field conditions and during the fermentation process. The processing factors (PFs) were less than 1 for each procedure, and the PF ranged from 0.005 to 0.025 in the overall process, which indicated that the wine-making process can reduce mandipropamid residue in grape wine. The results of this study could help facilitate more accurate risk assessments of mandipropamid in table grapes and during wine-making process.
