Article Citation - WoS: 13Citation - Scopus: 17Characterization of Antimicrobial Activities of Olive Phenolics on Yeasts Using Conventional Methods and Mid-Infrared Spectroscopy(Springer, 2019) Canal, Canan; Özen, Banu; Baysal, Ayşe HandanOlive fruit is very rich in terms of phenolic compounds. Antimicrobial activities of various phenolic compounds against bacteria and fungi are well established; however, their effects on yeasts have not been examined. Aim of this study was to investigate the antimicrobial effects induced by olive phenolic compounds, including tyrosol, hydroxytyrosol, oleuropein, luteolin and apigenin against two yeast species, Aureobasidium pullulans and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. For this purpose, yeasts were treated with various concentrations (12.5-1000ppm) of phenolic compounds and reduction in yeast population was followed with optical density measurements with microplate reader, yeast colony forming units and mid-infrared spectroscopy. All phenolic compounds were effective on both yeasts, especially 200ppm and higher concentrations have significant antimicrobial activity; however, effects of lower levels depend on the type of phenolic compound. According to mid-infrared spectral data, significant changes were observed in 1200-900cm(-1) range corresponding to carbohydrates of yeast structure as a result of exposure to all phenolic compounds except tyrosol. Spectra of tyrosol and luteolin treated yeasts also showed changes in 1750-1500cm(-1) related to amide section and 3600-3000cm(-1) fatty acid region. Since phenolic compounds from olives were effective against yeasts, they could be used in food applications where yeast growth showed problem. In addition, FTIR spectroscopy could be successfully used to monitor and characterize antimicrobial activity of phenolic compounds on yeasts as complementary to conventional microbiological methods.Article Citation - WoS: 180Citation - Scopus: 208Incorporating Phenolic Compounds Opens a New Perspective To Use Zein Films as Flexible Bioactive Packaging Materials(Elsevier Ltd., 2011) Arcan, İskender; Yemenicioğlu, AhmetTo eliminate their classical brittleness and flexibility problems zein films were plasticized by incorporation of different phenolic acids (gallic acid (GA), p-hydroxy benzoic acid (HBA) or ferulic acids (FA)) or flavonoids (catechin (CAT), flavone (FLA) or quercetin (QU)). The use of GA, CAT, FA and HBA at 3mg/cm2 eliminated the brittleness of films and gave highly flexible films showing elongations between 135% and 189%, while FLA and QU caused no considerable effect on film elongation. The films containing FA and HBA showed extreme swelling and lost their structural integrity when hydrated in distilled water. In contrast, CAT and GA containing films maintained their integrity following hydration. Most of the GA (up to 93%) and a considerable portion of CAT (up to 60%) in the films existed in soluble form. Therefore, the films showed antioxidant and/or antimicrobial activity. The TEACs of soluble phenolic compounds in 3mg/cm2 CAT and GA containing films were 21.0 and 86.2μmoltrolox/cm2, respectively. The GA containing films showed antimicrobial activity on Listeria monocytogenes and Campylobacter jejuni, while CAT showed no antimicrobial activity on these bacteria at the studied concentration. This work opens a new perspective for using zein in flexible bioactive packaging.Article Citation - WoS: 66Citation - Scopus: 82Antimicrobial and Antioxidant Activities of Turkish Extra Virgin Olive Oils(American Chemical Society, 2010) Karaosmanoğlu, Hande; Soyer, Ferda; Özen, Banu; Tokatlı, FigenTurkish extra virgin olive oils (EVOO) from different varieties/ geographical origins and their phenolic compounds were investigated in terms of their antimicrobial and antioxidant properties in comparison to refined olive, hazelnut, and canola oils. Antimicrobial activity was tested against three foodborne pathogenic bacteria, Escherichia coli O157:H7, Listeria monocytogenes, and Salmonella Enteritidis. Although all EVOOs showed a bactericidal effect, the individual phenolic compounds demonstrated only slight antimicrobial activity. Moreover, refined oil samples did not show any antimicrobial activity. Among the phenolic compounds, cinnamic acid (2 mg/kg of oil) had the highest percent inhibition value with 0.25 log reduction against L. monocytogenes. The synergistic interactions of tyrosol, vanillin, vanillic, and cinnamic acids were also observed against Salmonella Enteritidis. The antioxidant activities of oils were tested by β-carotene-linoleate model system and ABTS method. In both methods, EVOOs showed higher antioxidant activities, whereas refined oils had lower activity. The ABTS method provided a higher correlation (0.89) with total phenol content. © 2010 American Chemical Society.Article Citation - WoS: 86Citation - Scopus: 102Total Antioxidant Activity and Total Phenolic Contents in Different Turkish Eggplant (solanum Melongena L.) Cultivars(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2009) Ökmen, Bilal; Şığva, Hasan Özgür; Mutlu, Sevgi; Doğanlar, Sami; Yemenicioğlu, Ahmet; Frary, AnneIn this study, total water soluble antioxidant activity and phenolic content of 26 eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) cultivars were investigated. Total water soluble antioxidant activity of the cultivars varied from 2664 to 8247 molTrolox/kg, which is a 3.1-fold difference. Cultivars also showed significant variation for total phenolic contents ranging from 615 to 1376 mg/kg, a 2.2-fold difference. The two traits were significantly correlated and results of this study suggested that breeders can use the information to develop eggplant cultivars with high antioxidant activity.
