The manganese content of 35 different red, white and rosé wines, produced in several European countries, is determined by electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry. A mean concentration of 2.7 +/- 1.7 mg l-1 (range: 0.5-7.3 mg l-1) is obtained. No statistically significant difference is observed between red and white wines. On the other side, the red Beaujolais wines reveal significantly (p < 0.01) higher manganese content. Since literature data on manganese content of wine could hardly be traced, factors, probably affecting the manganese content of this alcoholic beverage, are discussed.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008345 Manganese A trace element with atomic symbol Mn, atomic number 25, and atomic weight 54.94. It is concentrated in cell mitochondria, mostly in the pituitary gland, liver, pancreas, kidney, and bone, influences the synthesis of mucopolysaccharides, stimulates hepatic synthesis of cholesterol and fatty acids, and is a cofactor in many enzymes, including arginase and alkaline phosphatase in the liver.
