Influence of some activators on the fermentation of must containing residual fungicides.Peer-reviewed article

E. MINÁRIK

The inhibitory effect of Botrytis-active fungicide on the alcoholic fermentation may be tempered or almost fully eliminated by the activator originating from the fully eliminated by the activator originating from the hyphal fungus Botrytis cinerea. By 100-300 mg . l^-1 of the activator the fermentation starts as well as the whole course of fermentation, first of all the first phase of tumultuous fermentation of grape musts containing residual fungicides, may be considerably stimulated. Thiamin and ammonium phosphate have little or no stimulating influence on the fermentation rate.
