Article Citation - WoS: 307Citation - Scopus: 364Iron Absorption: Factors, Limitations, and Improvement Methods(American Chemical Society, 2022) Pişkin, Elif; Cianciosi, Danila; Güleç, Şükrü; Tomas, Merve; Çapanoğlu, EsraIron is an essential element for human life since it participates in many functions in the human body, including oxygen transport, immunity, cell division and differentiation, and energy metabolism. Iron homeostasis is mainly controlled by intestinal absorption because iron does not have active excretory mechanisms for humans. Thus, efficient intestinal iron bioavailability is essential to reduce the risk of iron deficiency anemia. There are two forms of iron, heme and nonheme, found in foods. The average daily dietary iron intake is 10 to 15 mg in humans since only 1 to 2 mg is absorbed through the intestinal system. Nutrient-nutrient interactions may play a role in dietary intestinal iron absorption. Dietary inhibitors such as calcium, phytates, polyphenols and enhancers such as ascorbic acid and proteins mainly influence iron bioavailability. Numerous studies have been carried out for years to enhance iron bioavailability and combat iron deficiency. In addition to traditional methods, innovative techniques are being developed day by day to enhance iron bioavailability. This review will provide information about iron bioavailability, factors affecting absorption, iron deficiency, and recent studies on improving iron bioavailability.Book Part Citation - Scopus: 8Uv Processing and Storage of Liquid and Solid Foods: Quality, Microbial, Enzymatic, Nutritional, Organoleptic, Composition and Properties Effects(Elsevier, 2021) Hakgüder Taze, Bengi; Pelvan Akgün, Merve; Yıldız, Semanur; Kaya, Zehra; Ünlütürk, SevcanNon-thermal food processing technologies have been explored extensively in recent years in order to develop food products with extended shelf life as well as preserved nutritional and organoleptic characteristics in accordance with the changing consumer demands (Falguera et al., 2011a; Sanchez-Moreno et al., 2009). Ultraviolet (UV) irradiation is one of the non-thermal processes that can be applied to reduce the microbial load in liquid foods and surfaces, and to sterilize food packages and packaging materials, and environments involved in food processes (Jimenez-Sanchez et al., 2017a; Bintsis et al., 2000). UV light is subdivided into three regions as short-wave UV (UV-C, 200 and 280 nm), medium-wave UV (UV-B, 280 to 315 nm), and long wave UV (UV-A, 315 to 400 nm). The different types of effects on microorganisms can be caused by UV light of different wavelengths. The effectiveness of UV light on microorganisms results primarily from the fact that DNA molecules absorb UV photons between 200 and 300 nm, with peak absorption around 260–265 nm. This causes DNA damage by altering the nucleotide base pairing, thereby creating new linkages between adjacent nucleotides, particularly between pyrimidine bases, on the same DNA strand and ultimately results in cell death (Zimmer and Slawson, 2002). Peak et al. (1984) proposed that the dimer formation is not the only requirement to damage the DNA. Absorption of different wavelength photons by different molecular groups in the long DNA molecule can damage or destroy these bond groups. Thus, different bonds in the DNA can be affected with photons of different energy (Neister, 2014).Article Citation - WoS: 23Citation - Scopus: 26Development of Practical Hplc Methods for the Separation and Determination of Eggplant Steroidal Glycoalkaloids and Their Aglycones(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2008) Eanes, Ritchie C.; Tek, Neslihan; Kırsoy, Öyküm; Frary, Anne; Doğanlar, Sami; Almeida, Adelia E.A practical set of HPLC methods was developed for the separation and determination of the eggplant steroidal glycoalkaloids, solanine, chaconine, solasonine, solamargine, and their aglycones, solasodine and solanidine. A gradient method was initially developed, but proved to be neither robust nor practical. Three separate isocratic methods using acetonitrile and ammonium dihydrogen phosphate were developed and shown to be more repeatable, less subject to fluctuations in mobile phase composition, and less time consuming. The effect of adjusting buffer pH, column temperature, and buffer type (triethylammonium phosphate vs. ammonium dihydrogen phosphate) were evaluated. It was also discovered that, by addition of 10% methanol to the acetonitrile portion of the mobile phase, more control over the separations was possible. The use of methanol as a mobile phase entrainer greatly improved separations in some cases and its effectiveness was also dependent upon column temperature. Assessments of the method recovery, limit of detection, and limit of quantitation were made using extracts from S. melongena and S. linnaeanum.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Solid-Phase Microextraction (spme) Followed by On-Fiber Derivatization of Solasodine and Solanidine Aglycones of Steroidal Glycoalkaloids(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2008) Eanes, Ritchie C.; Tek, NeslihanSolid-phase microextraction (SPME), followed by on-fiber derivatization was investigated for the analysis of the steroidal glycoalkaloid aglycones, solasodine and solanidine. The aglycones were first extracted by direct immersion of the SPME fiber in the sample medium and then derivatized on the fiber in a separate step using 1-(trimethylsilyl)imidazole (TMSI). The derivatized compounds were then desorbed from the SPME fiber and detected by GC-MS. Polydimethylsiloxane/Divinylbenzene (PDMS-DVB), Carboxen/ Polydimethylsiloxane (CAR-PDMS), and Carbowax/Divinylbenzene (CW-DVB) fibers were employed with the CW-DVB fibers being the most successful, as expected. Closed-end capillary tubes were used to hold the extraction media. Both aglycones were successfully extracted, derivatized, and detected by GC-MS. Solasodine always required derivatization, but solanidine did not. The same method was successfully applied to cholesterol so that it could be used as an internal standard. Also, using the closed-end capillary tubes, a two-phase extraction system was also investigated, whereby the fiber was only exposed to the phase in which it was presumed to be less damaged. However, in all cases, fiber degradation was significant, preventing the use of extended extraction times and limiting reuse of the fibers. However, the results represent a first look into the feasibility of the method. With the development of more suitable SPME phases, this method could potentially provide a complementary route for routine determinations of glycoalkaloids for both research and food quality control.Article A Two-Dimensional Organic–inorganic Hybrid Compound, Poly[(ethylenediamine)tri-Μ(International Union of Crystallography, 2008) Gün, Özgül; Emirdağ Eanes, Mehtap; Vanderveer, Don; Eanes, MehtapA new organic–inorganic two-dimensional hybrid compound, [CuMoO4(C2H8N2)], has been hydrothermally synthesized at 443 K. The unit cell contains layers composed of CuN2O4 octahedra and MoO4 tetrahedra. Corner-sharing MoO4 and CuN2O4 polyhedra form CuMoO4 bimetallic sites that are joined together through O atoms, forming an edge-sharing Cu2Mo2O4 chain along the c axis. The one-dimensional chains are further linked through bridging O atoms that join the Cu and Mo atoms into respective chains along the b axis, thus establishing layers in the bc plane. The ethylenediamine ligand is coordinated to the Cu atom through its two N atoms and is oriented perpendicularly to the two-dimensional –Cu—O— Mo– layers. The average distance between adjacent layers, as calculated by consideration of the closest and furthest distances between two layers, is 8.7 Å. The oxidation statesof the Mo and Cu atoms of VI and II, respectively, were confirmed by bond-valence sum calculations.
