    Incorporation of Organic Acids Turns Classically Brittle Zein Films Into Flexible Antimicrobial Packaging Materials
    (Wiley, 2021) Sözbilen, Gözde Seval; Çavdaroğlu, Elif; Yemenicioğlu, Ahmet
    This study aimed to turn classically brittle zein films into flexible antimicrobial ones by the use of lactic (LA), malic (MA) and tartaric acids (TA). The most effective plasticizer was LA (400% elongation at break [EB] at 4%), while MA (189% EB at 4.5%) and TA (68% EB at 5%) showed moderate and limited plasticizing effects, respectively. The LA- and MA-loaded films maintained their flexibility during 30-day storage at 4 degrees C or 25 degrees C. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) analysis suggested that the plasticization of LA and MA could be related to secondary structural changes in zein such as increased alpha-helix and random coils (mainly by MA) and spaced/modified intermolecular (only by LA) and intramolecular (mainly by MA) beta-sheets. Atomic force and scanning electron microscopy showed that LA and MA gave more homogenous and smoother films than TA. Films with LA showed the highest water vapour permeability followed by those of control, MA- and TA-loaded films. Films with 3%-4% LA or MA formed clear zones on Listeria innocua and Klebsiella pneumonia, but only films with LA formed clear zones on Escherichia coli. All OA-loaded films gave unclear zones on Staphylococcus aureus in disc-diffusion tests, but this bacterium was inactivated rapidly in antimicrobial tests based on surface inoculation tests. LA is the best OA to develop flexible antimicrobial films from zein, an industrial by-product that films could not have been utilized as a widespread packaging material due to their brittleness.

    Antilisterial Effects of Lysozyme-Nisin Combination at Temperature and Ph Ranges Optimal for Lysozyme Activity: Test of Key Findings To Inactivate Listeria in Raw Milk
    (Academic Press Inc., 2021) Sözbilen, Gözde Seval; Yemenicioğlu, Ahmet
    This study aimed to determine antilisterial potential of lysozyme (LYS)-nisin (NIS) combination at temperatures and pHs optimal for LYS activity. Tests in buffers at pH 4.5 and 6.0 showed that heating at 50 or 60 °C combined with LYS-NIS caused higher Listeria innocua inactivation (- 6.2 to >6.6 log) than heating alone (- 0.05 to 5.5 log), or heating combined with LYS (- 4.34 to 6.0 log) or NIS (3.9 to >6.6). The antimicrobial performance of LYS-NIS in buffer at 50 °C was not pH-dependant (5.8–5.9 logs) while heating at 60 °C with LYS-NIS at pH 6.0 (>6.6 logs) caused higher Listeria reduction than that at pH 4.5 (5.7 logs). Heating at 50 °C for 45 min alone or in combination with LYS-NIS caused 0 and 5.5 logs Listeria reduction in milk, respectively. In contrast, Listeria inactivation in milk at 60 °C occurred mainly by heat (5.5 logs) with limited contribution of LYS and/or NIS. Milk heated at 50 °C maintained 73% of NIS and 63% of LYS activity. Application of LYS-NIS at 50 °C provides an opportunity to improve milk safety with less destruction of milk enzyme and microbial flora necessary to obtain desired ripening periods, and aroma and flavour in traditional cheeses. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd
