Article Citation - WoS: 16Citation - Scopus: 18Microencapsulation of a Potential Probiotic Lactiplantibacillus Pentosus and Its Impregnation Onto Table Olives(Elsevier, 2022) Elvan, Menşure; Baysal, Ayşe Handan; Harsa, Hayriye ŞebnemThis study aimed to demonstrate some probiotic properties of Lactiplantibacillus pentosus NRRL B-227 and impregnate the strain onto the table olive surfaces. In this respect, antioxidative ability, antibiotic resistance, and survivability after simulated digestion tests were carried out. Microencapsulation was performed using xylan and whey protein concentrate (WPC) using the water-in-oil emulsion technique to maintain cell viability. A vacuum impregnation process was performed to coat olive surfaces with L. pentosus. This strain demonstrated 71.6% DPPH radical scavenging activity and exhibited paramount resistance to antibiotics. The viable cell count of microencapsulated L. pentosus was found as 8 log CFU/g after 72 weeks of storage. After exposure to the simulated oral phase, 1-log reduction was detected, and gastric phase conditions led to a 3-log reduction of viability of microencapsulated as well as non-microencapsulated cells. The viability of microencapsulated L. pentosus on the surface of olives was also evaluated for one-month, and viable cell count was ≥6 log CFU/g. In the light of these findings, L. pentosus with antibiotic and digestion fluids resistant and antioxidant properties were successfully microencapsulated within xylan-WPC complex. Table olives can be considered as a suitable carrier for beneficial microorganisms that satisfies with the expectations of regulations for functional foods.Article Citation - WoS: 30Citation - Scopus: 35Bioactive Sheath/Core Nanofibers Containing Olive Leaf Extract(John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2016) Doğan, Gamze; Başal, Güldemet; Bayraktar, Oğuz; Özyıldız, Figen; Uzel, Ataç; Erdoğan, İpekThis study aimed at producing silk fibroin (SF)/hyaluronic acid (HA) and olive leaf extract (OLE) nanofibers with sheath/core morphology by coaxial electrospinning method, determining their antimicrobial properties, and examining release profiles of OLE from these coaxial nanofibers. Optimum electrospinning process and solution parameters were determined to obtain uniform and bead-free coaxial nanofibers. Scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were used to characterize the morphology of the nanofibers. The antimicrobial activities of nanofibers were tested according to AATCC test method 100. Total phenolic content and total antioxidant activity were tested using in vitro batch release system. The quality and quantity of released components of OLE were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography. The changes in nanofibers were examined by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. Uniform and bead-free nanofibers were produced successfully. TEM images confirmed the coaxial structure. OLE-loaded nanofibers demonstrated almost perfect antibacterial activities against both of gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria. Antifungal activity against C. albicans was rather poor. After a release period of 1 month, it was observed that ∼70-95% of the OLE was released from nanofibers and it was still bioactive. Overall results indicate that the resultant shell/core nanofibers have a great potential to be used as biomaterials.Article Citation - WoS: 29Citation - Scopus: 31Evaluation of Bioactivity of Pomegranate Fruit Extract Against Alicyclobacillus Acidoterrestris Dsm 3922 Vegetative Cells and Spores in Apple Juice(Academic Press Inc., 2015) Molva, Çelenk; Baysal, Ayşe HandanThis research evaluated the antimicrobial activity of commercial pomegranate extract (POMELLA®, PE) against Alicyclobacillus acidoterrestris vegetative cells and spores (approximately 105 log CFU/mL) in apple juice (pH 3.82, °Brix 11.3) during storage at 37°C. After 240h, the cell counts were reduced from the initial log count (CFU/mL) by 2.84, 3.26, 3.32, 3.46 and 3.56 in the apple juice with PE at the concentrations of 2.5, 5, 10, 20 and 40μg/mL, respectively. On the other hand, counts of the control reached 7.36 log CFU/mL after 24h. The Weibull model satisfactorily described the survival curves of cell inactivation kinetics (R2 > 0.983). While the growth of all spores obtained from different sporulation media (potato dextrose agar, malt extract agar, Bacillus acidoterrestris agar, and Bacillus acidocaldarius agar) was inhibited in the apple juice with PE (2.5-40μg/mL), the control spores increased by 1.9-2.2 log CFU/mL after 336h. Based on the scanning electron microscopy (SEM) imaging, vegetative cells indicated substantial damage and spore germination was inhibited in the apple juice with PE. The results showed that PE can have possible uses as a natural antimicrobial to control the growth of A.acidoterrestris vegetative cells and spore germination in the apple juice. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.Article Citation - WoS: 41Citation - Scopus: 45Effects of Controlled Pepsin Hydrolysis on Antioxidant Potential and Fractional Changes of Chickpea Proteins(Elsevier Ltd., 2010) Arcan, İskender; Yemenicioğlu, AhmetThis study investigated the effects of controlled pepsin hydrolysis on antioxidant potential and fractional changes of chickpea protein extracts (CPE). The enzyme hydrolysis increased soluble protein content (1.2 to 2-fold) and free radical scavenging activity (1.9 to 3-fold) of hydrolyzed chickpea protein extract (HCPE), but almost unaffected its antioxidant potential in oil-in-water emulsion system and reduced its iron chelating capacity (1.3-fold) and functional properties. The chromatographic fractions of CPE are mainly acidic, while those of HCPE are mainly basic and neutral. The majority of chickpea proteins had pI between 4.5 and 5.5, and molecular weight (MW) between 15 and 40 kDa, while MW of their pepsin hydrolysis products ranged between 6.5 and 14.2 kDa. The main antioxidant proteins in CPE and HCPE fractionated by ultrafiltration had MW greater than 30 kDa and between 2 and 10 kDa, respectively. The chickpea proteins and hydrolysates showed different potentials as functional food ingredients. © 2009 Elsevier Ltd.

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: 125Citation - Scopus: 156Antimicrobial and Antioxidant Activity of Edible Zein Films Incorporated With Lysozyme, Albumin Proteins and Disodium Edta(Elsevier Ltd., 2007) Mecitoğlu Güçbilmez, Çiğdem; Yemenicioğlu, Ahmet; Arslanoğlu, AlperIn this study, partially purified lysozyme was incorporated into zein films in combination with chickpea albumin extract (CPAE), bovine serum albumin (BSA) and disodium EDTA. The zein films showed an inherent free radical scavenging activity. Incorporation of lysozyme did not contribute to soluble free radical scavenging activity of zein films. However, the incorporation of lysozyme in combination with CPAE increased the soluble and immobilized free radical scavenging activity of zein films 17% to 25% and almost 84%, respectively. The incorporation of CPAE also improved the distribution of partially purified lysozyme preparation in zein films and enabled the controlled release of lysozyme by reducing its release rate from zein films between 1.5- and 3.5-fold, depending on the concentration of incorporated CPAE. In contrast, the BSA incorporation made distribution of lysozyme more heterogeneous and it did not contribute to the free radical scavenging activity of films significantly. The combinational incorporation of partially purified lysozyme with disodium EDTA · 2H2O or CPAE and disodium EDTA · 2H2O gave zein films effective on Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis. This study clearly showed the benefits of using functional protein extracts to control lysozyme distribution and release rate and to improve antioxidant activity in zein films.Article Citation - WoS: 98Citation - Scopus: 118Antioxidant Activity of Protein Extracts From Heat-Treated or Thermally Processed Chickpeas and White Beans(Elsevier Ltd., 2007) Arcan, İskender; Yemenicioğlu, AhmetIn this study, antioxidant activities of water-soluble protein extracts from chickpeas and white beans were investigated. The area under the curve (AUC) values of lyophilized crude protein extracts (dialyzed or undialyzed) from thermally processed (121 °C for 20 min) or heat-treated (90 °C for 20 min) chickpeas (73-91 μmol trolox/g) and white beans (39-67 μmol trolox/g) indicated a higher free radical-scavenging capacity and thermostability for chickpea proteins than for white bean proteins. The thermal processing also increased the Fe+2-chelating capacity of lyophilized chickpea crude protein extracts 1.8-fold whereas it caused a 2.3-fold reduction in the Fe+2-chelating capacity of lyophilized white bean crude protein extracts. Dialysis increased the protein content of lyophilized chickpea extracts 1.5-2-fold but it did not affect the protein content of lyophilized white bean extracts significantly. Ammonium sulfate precipitation was not effective for selective precipitation of antioxidant proteins. However, it improved the free radical-scavenging capacity of lyophilized protein extracts from thermally processed chickpeas and white beans by almost 25% and 100%, respectively. DEAE-cellulose chromatography, indicated the presence of five (A1-A5) and three (B1-B3) antioxidant protein fractions in heat-treated and thermally processed chickpea protein extracts, respectively, and can be used for the partial purification of antioxidant proteins. The results of this study showed the good potential of chickpea proteins as thermostable natural food antioxidants.
