Article Citation - WoS: 52Citation - Scopus: 55Wheatgrass Juice To Wheat Grass Powder: Encapsulation, Physical and Chemical Characterization(Elsevier Ltd., 2017) Akbaş, Elif; Kilercioğlu, Mete; Önder, Özge Nur; Köker, Alperen; Söyler, Betül; Öztop, Mecit HalilWheatgrass juice (Triticum aestivum L.) is known as a healthy drink due to its high antioxidant activity and phenolic content. In order to avoid the undesirable odor and protect the functional compounds, wheatgrass juice was encapsulated using maltodextrin and whey protein. Antioxidant and phenolic content, mean particle size and distribution, morphology, simulated digestion and thermal stability experiments were conducted on the encapsulated powders. Results showed that antioxidant activity was in between 0.30 and 0.06 mg 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH)/g powder and phenolic content was 3.52–2.28 mg gallic acid equivalent (GAE)/g powder. Encapsulated powders showed good stability in gastric juice and had 62% higher phenolic content compared to the intestinal fluid within 10 min digestion. Phenolic content of powders was also protected against thermal treatment at 40 °C, 55 °C and 70 °C. Kinetic parameters for degradation of the phenolics were well estimated (R2⩾0.85) using fractional conversion model.Article 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.
