Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 8Development of Pro-Angiogenic Wound Dressings From 2-Deoxy (2ddr)-Loaded Decellularized Plant Leaves(SPRINGER, 2023) Dikici, Serkan; Çavdaroğlu, ÇağrıTraditional wound dressings are essential for the treatment of acute and superficial wounds. However, complex wounds require the use of bioactive dressings that promote healing alongside providing a safe barrier for the coverage of the wound site. The addition of growth factors is usually the primary choice to fabricate functionalized wound dressing. However, it is also the main reason for the increase in the cost of a wound dressing and may be associated with several drawbacks, such as the need for a precise drug delivery system to be able to be administered at a narrow effective dose range. 2-deoxy-D-ribose (2dDR) is a cost-effective and promising pro-angiogenic agent that indirectly stimulates vascular endothelial growth factor production to stimulate angiogenesis, and consecutively accelerate wound healing. In this study, we aimed to fabricate a novel wound dressing from 2dDR-loaded decellularized spinach leaves and evaluated its bioactivity on human endothelial cells in vitro. Our results demonstrated that a biocompatible wound dressing biomaterial could successfully be fabricated via the decellularization of spinach leaves using chemical decellularization. The success of decellularization was confirmed quantitatively and qualitatively via determination of the DNA content and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, respectively. 2dDR was then easily incorporated into the dressings via physical absorption and released from them in 5 days. The release of 2dDR-releasing decellularized spinach leaves was observed to increase the viability and metabolic activity of human endothelial cells in vitro over 7 days. In conclusion, we demonstrated the fabrication of a novel functionalized biomaterial combining decellularized plant tissues with a promising pro-angiogenic agent, and 2dDR-loaded decellularized spinach leaves appear to have great potential to be used as a bioactive wound dressing to promote angiogenesis and, consecutively, wound healing.Review Citation - WoS: 10Citation - Scopus: 10Authentication of Vinegars With Targeted and Non-Targeted Methods(Taylor & Francis, 2023) Çavdaroğlu, Çağrı; Çavdaroğlu, Çağrı; Özen, Banu; Özen, Fatma BanuThere has been a growing interest in vinegar, especially after the increasing reports about its beneficial health effects. Bioactive compounds of vinegar are associated with its antimicrobial, antioxidant, antidiabetic, antitumor, and anti-obesity types of activities. Quality of vinegar is related with the authenticity of the product besides the amounts of bioactive compounds in its composition. Addition of cheaper substitutes to higher quality vinegars and false labeling are some common authentication problems for this product. There are various examples of the use of targeted and untargeted methods in authentication studies for vinegars. Specific constituents and properties of vinegars such as molecular isotope ratios and individual volatile compounds were used to detect adulteration with targeted methods. On the other hand, untargeted methods, mostly in the form of the application of spectroscopic techniques, such as infrared and fluorescence spectroscopy in combination with chemometrics, provide an overall measurement. This review mainly focuses on adulteration types and elaborates on different targeted and non-targeted methods used to authenticate vinegars.Article Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 11Prediction of Vinegar Processing Parameters With Chemometric Modelling of Spectroscopic Data(Elsevier, 2021) Çavdaroğlu, Çağrı; Çavdaroğlu, Çağrı; Özen, Banu; Özen, Fatma BanuSpectroscopic methods have the advantages of being rapid and environmentally friendly and can be used in measurement and control of processing parameters during food production. It was aimed to predict several quality and chemical parameters of vinegar processing from UV-visible and mid-infrared spectroscopic profiles. Two processing lines of both traditional and submerged vinegar production from 2 separate grape varieties (green and red grapes) were monitored. Some of the important markers of the fermentation processes; pH, brix, total acidity, total flavonoid content, total and individual phenolic contents, organic acid, sugar, ethanol concentrations as well as UV-visible and mid-infrared spectra were obtained during both types of vinegar processing and quality and chemical parameters were predicted from spectroscopic data using chemometric methods. Individual UV-visible and mid-infrared spectral profiles along with low level of data fusion were used in building of chemometric prediction models. Accurate, reliable and robust prediction models (R(2)cal and R(2)val >0.9) were obtained for quality parameters mostly with combination of two spectroscopic datasets. Predictive models used for phenolic components were below average except for p-coumaric and syringic acids. Citric and acetic acids were the most accurately estimated ones among organic acids along with ethanol. Close agreements between reference and predicted values were obtained during the monitoring of changes of some quality parameters for vinegar fermentation process through rapid and simultaneous spectroscopic measurements.Article Citation - WoS: 13Citation - Scopus: 13Multi-Scale Benchtop 1h Nmr Spectroscopy for Milk Analysis(Academic Press, 2021) Söyler, Alper; Çıkrıkçı, Sevil; Çavdaroğlu, Çağrı; Bouillaud, Dylan; Farjon, Jonathan; Giraudeau, Patrick; Öztop, Mecit H.Benchtop NMR systems offers various advantages such as being easy to use, not requiring constant maintenance and being available at affordable prices. In this study, multiple aspects of benchtop NMR spectroscopy were explored to analyze milk in an industrial context, either regarding the quality of production or regarding the differentiation of the final product. The first part focuses on the production conditions of lactose hydrolysis in milk and quantitative online NMR spectroscopy was adapted to follow lactose hydrolysis in milk in continuous flow mode. The second part focuses on differentiating milk samples having different properties. 36 milk samples from France and Turkey were analysed and glycerol, fat and sugar contents were measured from the NMR spectra. Combination of spectroscopic data with a proposed Artificial Neural Network model enabled to classify milk of different origins and different properties. This study shows that benchtop NMR spectroscopy is a versatile non-destructive control method that can help controlling milk quality both during and after production. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd
