In period 2001–2006, the content of sulphur dioxide was determined in
90 assortments of wine and beer bought randomly at retail shops and wholesale outlets in
Szczecin and West Pomeranian Province, Poland. Sulphur dioxide concentrations were
analysed by titration after distillation from acidified samples. Sulphur dioxide was present in all
the wines examined. The lowest concentrations, within the range of 1.2–18 mg SO2 · dm–3, were
found in the domestic wines. Imported wines contained more sulphur dioxide, with
concentrations varying from 4.4 to 217 mg SO2 · dm–3. The highest concentrations were
detected in Rhine wines. Concentrations in beers ranged from 0.0 to 8 mg SO2 · dm–3. However
in all the wines examined, sulphur dioxide concentrations were below the maximum permitted
level, while in beers the detected values were below 10 mg · dm–3, which is the level of
technological importance. Concluding the results, the wines and beers examined were safe for
consumers’ health, considering sulphur dioxide content.
