摘要 |
The present disclosure provides methods that decrease the interaction between tannins found in wine (such as polymeric tannins) and lysozyme added to wine as an antimicrobial agent, for example by adding a tannin-binding agent to the wine prior to adding lysozyme to the wine. In particular examples, such methods increase lysozyme antimicrobial activity (for example by increasing the effective lysozyme concentration) in the wine, since lysozyme bound to tannin is not available for providing antimicrobial activity. Also provided are methods for making wine. Compositions that include wine, lysozyme, and one or more tannin-binding agents that decrease the interaction between tannins and lysozyme are also disclosed.
