For the quantitative in vitro determination of L-malic acid in red and white wine, beer and fruit juices. This product is suitable for Manual and Automated use (procedure sheets available upon request). Malic acid is measured in order to monitor malolactic fermentation which softens the flavour of wine and increases its microbial stability.
During malolactic fermentation L-malic acid levels decrease and in final stages of ripening malic acid decomposes and the grape can become over ripe. Therefore malic acid is used in the wine industry to determine the ripeness and variety of grapes.
