Book Part Citation - WoS: 12Citation - Scopus: 16Zein and Its Composites and Blends With Natural Active Compounds: Development of Antimicrobial Films for Food Packaging(Elsevier Ltd., 2016) Yemenicioğlu, AhmetIn this chapter the current developments in using biopolymer zein for active edible film-making are discussed with particular emphasis on antimicrobial packaging. Recent studies have showed the possibility of developing effective antimicrobial edible packaging materials through the incorporation of different natural antimicrobial compounds, including antimicrobial enzymes, peptides, and phenolic compounds, into zein films. The zein-based films that contain antimicrobial enzyme lysozyme and bacteriocin nisin have great potential as antilisterial edible packaging materials. Additionally, zein-based films that contain natural phenolic compounds might be suitable for antimicrobial, antioxidant, and/or bioactive packaging. The use of composites of zein with waxes and blends of zein with fatty acids enables researchers to obtain antimicrobial zein-based films with controlled release properties.Article Citation - WoS: 76Citation - Scopus: 95Development of Flexible Zein-Wax Composite and Zein-Fatty Acid Blend Films for Controlled Release of Lysozyme(Elsevier Ltd., 2013) Arcan, İskender; Yemenicioğlu, AhmetThe aim of this study was controlled release of lysozyme by modification of hydrophobicity and morphology of zein films using composite and blend film making methods. The incorporation of beeswax, carnauba or candelilla wax into films at 5% (w/w) of zein gave composite films containing amorphous wax particles, while incorporation of oleic acid into film at 5% of zein caused formation of blend films containing many spherical zein capsules within their matrix. The lysozyme release rates of composites reduced as the melting point of waxes increased. The composites and blends showed 2.5 to 17 fold lower lysozyme release rates than controls. The films were effectively plasticized by using catechin. The catechin also provided antioxidant activity of films (up to 69 mu mol Trolox/cm(2)) and contributed to their controlled release properties by reducing film porosity. The films showed antimicrobial activity against Listeria innocua. This work showed the possibility of obtaining advanced edible films having flexibility, antimicrobial and antioxidant activity and controlled release properties.Article Citation - WoS: 8Citation - Scopus: 10Moisture Sorption and Thermal Characteristics of Polyaramide Blend Fabrics(John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2006) Genç, Gözde; Alp, Burcu; Balköse, Devrim; Ülkü, Semra; Cireli, AysunFour types of fabrics woven from various polyaramid fibers of Nomex and Kevlar blends were characterized by morphology, XRD, elemental analysis, thermal analysis, and moisture adsorption isotherms. The blends consisted of Polybenzimidazole/ Kevlar blend (40% FBI and 60% Kevlar®), Nomex Delta A (blend of 60% Kevlar and 40% Nomex®), Nomex Delta T (blend of 75% Nomex, 23% Kevlar, and 2% P140 antistatic fiber), and Nomex III (fabric with a 95/5 blend of Nomex and Kevlar) containing 1% steel fiber. TGA and DTG curves have been compared to evaluate thermal behavior of the FBI, Kevlar, and Nomex blends and the resuls were correlated with the moisture sorption data. The data were also compared with fiber morphologies provided by SEM and crystallinities derived from XRD diffrac tograms. Moisture adsorption isotherms were correlated with a number of empirical models, including Nernst, Freundlich, Handersen, Iglesias-Chirife, and with the models having a theoretical background such as Langmuir, BET, GAB, and Hüttig. The linear regression models were statistically analyzed to obtain the best fitting model that explains the sorption profiles of the samples and theoretical monolayer moisture capacities of Nomex and Kevlar blends were calculated by using Hüttig isotherms.
