Article Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 11Development of a Functional Chocolate Using Gamma-Amino Butyric Acid Producer Lacticaseibacillus Rhamnosus Nrrl B-442(Elsevier, 2022) Özer, Merve; Öztürk, Burcu; Hayaloğlu, Ali Adnan; Tellioğlu Harsa, ŞebnemThe human microbiota is influenced by the immune and nervous systems of the host. Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is known as bioactive compound and it has important physiological functions, such as anti-hypertensive and antidepressant activities. Lactic acid bacteria (LAB), especially Lactobacillus species are known as the most important GABA producers because of the food-grade nature. The purpose of this study is to develop a functional chocolate using microencapsulated GABA producer Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus NRRL B-442 strain for patients having an anxiety disorder. Water-in-oil emulsion technique was conducted for microencapsulation using whey-pullulan complex. Microencapsulated and free L. rhamnosus cell counts were 6.75 and 7.20 log CFU/g in chocolates, respectively, at the end of 60 days. During simulated in vitro digestion analysis, survival rate of microencapsulated bacteria in chocolate samples was found at higher percentage (87%) than free bacteria (75%). Furthermore, microencapsulated L. rhamnosus did not affect the physical, chemical, and sensory properties of chocolate. Consequently, L. rhamnosus with the highest GABA producing capability may provide insight for an anxiety disorder patient, since this strain has been thought as having a therapeutic effect. A new functional food model was developed for “GutBrain Axis” phenomena since the chocolate could be accepted as a good carrier for GABA producer bacteria.Article Citation - WoS: 35Citation - Scopus: 42Lactic Acid Bacteria: Isolation–characterization Approaches and Industrial Applications(Taylor & Francis, 2022) Meruvu, Haritha; Tellioğlu Harsa, ŞebnemThe current state-of-art research pertaining to lactic acid bacteria (LAB) calls for the screening and isolation of robust LAB strains to achieve holistic exploitation of LAB and their metabolites of marketable importance. Hence it is imperative to comprehend LAB sources, growth requisites, isolation and characterization strategies necessary for featured cataloging and appropriate culturing. This review comprehensively describes various growth media and biomasses used for supporting LAB sustenance, assay procedures needed for the isolation and characterization of LAB strains, and their application in diverse sectors. The various industrial patents and their summarized claims about novel LAB strains isolated and identified, methods and media (used for detection/screening, isolation, adaptation, culturing, preservation, growth improvement), the techniques and/or methodologies supporting LAB fermentation, and applications of produced industrial metabolites in various market scenarios are detailedArticle Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 5Developing a Functional Lozenge With Microencapsulated Lactiplantibacillus Pentosus To Improve Oral and Dental Health(Elsevier, 2021) Elvan, Menşure; Baysal, Ayşe Handan; Tellioğlu Harsa, ŞebnemIn this study, a functional lozenge was developed by using microencapsulated Lactiplantibacillus pentosus NRRL-B 227. Antimicrobial activity of L. pentosus was determined to find out the efficiency on cariogenic and pathogen microorganisms that are known to cause dental caries and gum diseases. Streptococcus mutans is a well-known cariogenic strain, which easily converts sugars to acids and exert adverse effects on dental health. Candida albicans is an opportunistic pathogen when body resistance is weak, it becomes dominant in the mouth, causing disruption of oral health. Within this context, by applying several methods (e.g. broth microdilution, disc diffusion, agar overlay and planktonic culture assays), L. pentosus showed antibacterial and antifungal activities against S. mutans ATCC 25175 and C. albicans DSMZ 5817, respectively. Thus, three different lozenge formulation were produced such as; CL control formulation without cells, CPL formulation containing micro encapsulated cells and FPL formulation containing free cells. The microbiological, physicochemical and sensorial studies were carried out for all formulations stored at 4 degrees C and 25 degrees C. Among these, CPL was found to be more stable than FPL, since microencapsulation with Pullulan/WPC water-in-oil emulsion play a protective role. L. pentosus viability has been lost after 1 month at 25 degrees C, however the viability was maintained without significant reduction at 4 degrees C in case of CPL samples. In the light of findings, lozenge formulation incorporated with L. pentosus can be considered as potential antimicrobial to improve oral health and therefore may become a promising candidate to contribute to the range of functional food products.Article Citation - WoS: 15Citation - Scopus: 17Effect of Different Microencapsulating Materials on the Viability of S. Thermophilus Ccm4757 Incorporated Into Dark and Milk Chocolates(Elsevier Ltd., 2021) Öztürk, Burcu; Elvan, Menşure; Özer, Merve; Tellioğlu Harsa, ŞebnemThis study aimed to evaluate the viability and bioaccessibility of Streptococcus thermophilus CCM4757 strain supplemented in dark and milk chocolates during storage period and pass through simulated in vitro gastro-intestinal tract. Microencapsulated and non-microencapsulated S. thermophilus CCM4757 strain added into the chocolates. Emulsion technique was used to microencapsulate cells with various biopolymers; carboxymethylcellulose, pectin, gum arabic, and cellobiose. The microencapsulated S. thermophilus with these coating materials was found to be viable higher than 9 log CFU/g up to 180 days of storage at 4 °C. Microbiological, physicochemical, and sensorial attributes of the chocolates containing microencapsulated and non-microencapsulated S. thermophilus CCM4757 were analyzed. The microencapsulated S. thermophilus showed a good survivability in milk (7.12 log CFU/g) and dark (6.90 log CFU/g) chocolate samples during 180-day storage at 4 °C. Supplementation of S. thermophilus did not affect significantly (P > 0.05) the sensory attributes of the chocolates. The results showed that S. thermophilus CCM4757 exhibited good cell survivability higher than 85% in chocolates under simulated gastro-intestinal fluids. S. thermophilus supplementation into the chocolate protected the viability of cells and did not affect the sensorial characteristics and moisture content of chocolates. The present study demonstrated that the dark and milk chocolates could be used as an important matrix to carry probiotics. © 2021 Elsevier LtdArticle Citation - WoS: 35Citation - Scopus: 41Protection of Lactobacillus Acidophilus Nrrl-B 4495 Under in Vitro Gastrointestinal Conditions With Whey Protein/Pullulan Microcapsules(Elsevier Ltd., 2015) Çabuk, Burcu; Tellioğlu Harsa, ŞebnemIn this research, whey protein/pullulan (WP/pullulan) microcapsules were developed in order to assess its protective effect on the viability of Lactobacillus acidophilus NRRL-B 4495 under in vitro gastrointestinal conditions. Results demonstrated that WP/pullulan microencapsulated cells exhibited significantly (p ≤ 0.05) higher resistance to simulated gastric acid and bile salt. Pullulan incorporation into protein wall matrix resulted in improved survival as compared to free cells after 3 h incubation in simulated gastric solution. Moreover WP/pullulan microcapsules were found to release over 70% of encapsulated L. acidophilus NRRL-B 4495 cells within 1 h. The effect of encapsulation during refrigerated storage was also studied. Free bacteria exhibited 3.96 log reduction while, WP/pullulan encapsulated bacteria showed 1.64 log reduction after 4 weeks of storage.Article Citation - WoS: 12Citation - Scopus: 15Improved Viability of Lactobacillus Acidophilus Nrrl-B 4495 During Freeze-Drying in Whey Protein-Pullulan Microcapsules(Informa Healthcare, 2015) Çabuk, Burcu; Tellioğlu Harsa, ŞebnemIn this research, pullulan was incorporated in protein-based encapsulation matrix in order to assess its cryoprotective effect on the viability of freeze-dried (FD) probiotic Lactobacillus acidophilus NRRL-B 4495. This study demonstrated that pullulan in encapsulation matrix resulted in a 90.4% survival rate as compared to 88.1% for whey protein (WPI) encapsulated cells. The protective effects of pullulan on the survival of FD-encapsulated cells in gastrointestinal conditions were compared. FD WPI-pullulan capsules retained higher survived cell numbers (7.10 log CFU/g) than those of FD WPI capsules (6.03 log CFU/g) after simulated gastric juice exposure. Additionally, use of pullulan resulted in an increased viability after bile exposure. FD-free bacteria exhibited 2.18 log CFU/g reduction, while FD WPI and FD WPI-pullulan encapsulated bacteria showed 0.95 and 0.49 log CFU/g reduction after 24 h exposure to bile solution, respectively. Morphology of the FD microcapsules was visualized by scanning electron microscopy. © 2015 Informa UK Ltd.
