    Analytical Methodology for Monitoring and Distribution Pattern Analysis of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in River Basins Based on Chemometrics
    (Wiley, 2025) Yildirim, Ebru calkan; Pelit, Fusun; Ozdemir, Durmus; Kazan, Aysegul; Tasdelen, Ozge; Baycan, Neval
    With the increase in urbanization and industrialization, the environmental quality of river basins, which serve as a crucial source of irrigation for agricultural activities, has been deteriorating progressively. Thus, monitoring persistent toxic substances in urban water resources is crucial for maintaining ecological stability and protecting human health. In recent years, particular attention has been directed toward the prevention of polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), highlighting the importance of analyzing these compounds in water samples through more environmentally sustainable techniques. In this study, we report a green, rapid, cost-effective and simple dispersive liquid-liquid extraction (DLLME) method to monitor PAHs in river waters taken from 21 stations located within the geographical boundaries of the Gediz River Basin in Izmir Province, T & uuml;rkiye. Methodological parameters were optimized by chemometric techniques including Plackett-Burman (PBD) and Box-Behnken design. The method's accuracy was tested upon spiked river samples, and the recoveries ranged from 80% to 102%. The calibration curves were linear, with correlation coefficients greater than 0.98. The limit of detection values were between 0.01 and 0.05 ng mL-1. The reproducibility (RSD%) varied from 4.0% to 19%. Multivariate classification methods such as principal component analysis (PCA) and hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA), along with the supervised classification method partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) were applied to elucidate the general distribution patterns of individual PAHs in the basin water samples. The chemometric evaluation conducted across four seasons revealed that PAH contamination was higher in the fall and winter months, resulting in a clear separation from spring and summer samples by using the first two principal components.

    Geographical Classification and Characterization of Turkish Gemlik Virgin Olive Oils From Two Locations (Salihli - Manisa and Gemlik - Bursa) Based on Their Glyceridic Profiles
    (Innovhub SSI - Stazioni Sperimentali per l'Industria, 2025) Diraman, Harun; Ozdemir, Durmus
    The Gemlik olive cultivar (which is grown for its fruit and oil, also known as the Trilya or Tirilye olive) is the major domestic cultivar of the Marmara region and originated in Bursa province on the Gulf of Gemlik. It has also been cultivated widely for over twenty years in other olive growing regions in Turkey and is the source of speculative claims by the domestic sector about the properties of its oil. In this study, VOO samples produced from Gemlik olive cultivar grown over two crop years in the two main locations (Salihli-Manisa n=10 and Gemlik -Bursa n=14) and reference samples from the Olive Research Institute-Borova/Izmir (n=2) were analysed using the common and approved capillary GC (Fatty Acid Composition-FA) and HPLC (Triacylglycerol Profile-TAG) methods. All data from both methods were classified with the most popular chemometrics methods (Principal Component Analysis, PCA and Hierarchical Cluster Analysis, HCA). The results of the glyceridic data from the PCA indicated that the changes of cumulative percentage were the reason for variance levels (based on PC1 and PC2) in VOO samples of between 61.75 and 77.93% for all data over the two crop years. According to the PCA biplot analysis for the two crop years, some major-minor compounds and calculated parameters from FAs and TAGs data played an effective role in the geographical characterisation and classification of Gemlik VOO from two different locations, Manisa and Bursa. Consequently, the FA and TAG profiles could be promising in determining the correct geographical classification of monocultivar Gemlik VOOs.
