    Antidiabetic and Anticancer Properties of Sun-Dried Fig (Ficus Carica) Stalk Pectin: Effects on Intestinal Glucose Absorption and Colon Cancer Cell Growth
    (Elsevier, 2025) Baser, Filiz; Cavdaroglu, Elif; Yemenicioglu, Ahmet; Gulec, Sukru
    This study aims to characterize the physiological activity of fig stalk pectin (FSP) in terms of antidiabetic and anticancer activities. Also, the potency of FSP has been interpreted as a functional food ingredient in yogurt. The galacturonic acid content (65 %), degree of esterification (63 %), and enzymatic sugar analysis showed that FSP is a high methoxyl pectin rich in RG-I content (similar to 22 %). Anti-diabetic characteristics of FSP demonstrated that FSP inhibited 2-deoxyglucose uptake into CaCo-2 cells and reduced glucose absorption in the intestinal transport system after being added as an ingredient in yogurt at the concentration of 2 % (w/w). The antidiabetic activity of FSP was attributed to its capacity to modify the rheological properties of yogurt with a high-water binding capacity (10 g/g), and it increased the viscosity of digested yogurt samples considerably (from 89 to 110 Cp). Moreover, the characterization of anticancer properties showed that FSP inhibited the proliferation of colon cancer CaCo-2 cells by disturbing cell cycle progression, leading to S phase arrest, and showing apoptosis-inducing ability. Further research, including in vivo and clinical trials, is necessary to validate the observed health benefits of FSP.

    The Effect of Starch Types on Extensional, Linear and Nonlinear Rheological Properties of Starch Cracker Dough
    (Elsevier, 2024) Berk, Berkay; Cankal, Yadigar Seyfi; Koroglu, Ebru; Yorulmaz, Hilal; Cavdaroglu, Elif; Unluturk, Sevcan
    Cracker is a popular snack, and their quality depends on the rheological properties of the dough during production. This study focused on the impact of different starch types (tapioca, corn, and potato) used in the same amount (30 g) on the rheology of starch cracker dough. Various rheological tests were conducted to assess the dough's properties. Linear viscoelastic properties were determined using oscillatory frequency and temperature sweep tests, while the nonlinear viscoelastic behavior was characterized through stress relaxation and creep recovery tests. Extensional rheological behavior was also examined. Additionally, the textural and thermal properties of the dough were monitored to understand starch gelatinization and its interactions with other components. In the linear viscoelastic region, no significant differences were found between different dough formulations. However, in the nonlinear viscoelastic region, the potato starch-containing formulation exhibited different viscoelastic and textural properties. Biaxial extensional rheological behaviors showed no significant variations between formulations. The temperature sweep test data from differential scanning calorimetry measurements were consistent with temperature sweep data. In summary, this study provides valuable insights into how different starches influence the rheological behavior of starch cracker dough, considering various degrees of deformation and temperature. These findings have implications for cracker production parameters.
