Article Citation - WoS: 44Citation - Scopus: 60Development of a Novel Strategy for Controlled Release of Lysozyme From Whey Protein Isolate Based Active Food Packaging Films(Elsevier Ltd., 2016) Pekşen Özer, Bahar Başak; Uz, Metin; Oymacı, Pelin; Alsoy Altınkaya, SacideThe purpose of this study is to develop a novel controlled release system based on pH-responsive polyacrylic acid (PAA)/lysozyme (LYS) complexes incorporated within a hydrophilic whey protein isolate (WPI) film matrix for active food packaging applications. Complex formation is simple under benign conditions that are suitable for preserving antimicrobial activity of the lysozyme. In addition, the pH-dependent charge density of complexes allowed a uniform distribution in the matrix. The properties of the complexes such as size, surface charge and hydrophilicity were varied by changing PAA/LYS ratio (0.1 and 0.3 w/w) and PAA molecular weight (2 kDa and 450 kDa). The effects of complex properties as well as mode of lysozyme incorporation into the films (100%-free, 50%-free+50%-PAA/LYS complex and 100%-PAA/LYS complex) on the LYS release rate, activity and antimicrobial efficacy of the films were investigated. The results have shown that ∼100% LYS loading into the complexes is possible regardless of PAA molecular weight or PAA/LYS ratio. Incorporating lysozyme into the film in complexed form extended its release time from less than 24 h up to 500 h and reduced its diffusivity from ∼10−9 to ∼10−13 cm2/s. The films including 50%-free-LYS+50%-PAA/LYS complex showed a 5.7 log reduction in bacterial population within 72 h whereas 100%-free-LYS containing film could not suppress Listeria innocua growth after 24 h. Overall, the results suggest that complexation of lysozyme with weak polyelectrolytes can be used as an effective strategy to achieve a long-lasting antimicrobial effect and that films prepared with such complexes have great potential as food packaging materials.Article Citation - WoS: 80Citation - Scopus: 107Application of Active Zein-Based Films With Controlled Release Properties To Control Listeria Monocytogenes Growth and Lipid Oxidation in Fresh Kashar Cheese(Elsevier Ltd., 2013) Uysal Ünalan, İlke; Arcan, İskender; Korel, Figen; Yemenicioğlu, AhmetThe antimicrobial and antioxidant potential of zein and zein-wax composite films having different release profiles for lysozyme and mixture of lysozyme, catechin and gallic acid were tested on cold-stored fresh Kashar cheese inoculated with Listeria monocytogenes ATCC 7644. All lysozyme containing films prevented the increase of L. monocytogenes counts in Kashar cheese for 8 weeks at 4°C, but it was only the zein-wax composite films with sustained lysozyme-release rates which caused a significant reduction (- 0.4 decimals) in initial microbial load of inoculated cheese samples. The mixture of catechin and gallic acid improved the in vitro antimicrobial effect of films against L. monocytogenes, but showed no considerable antimicrobial effect in cheese. However, the films containing catechin and gallic acid were effective in preventing oxidative changes in cheese. This study showed the possibility of increasing safety and quality of fresh cheeses by use of active packaging employing natural antimicrobial compounds and controlled release technology. Industrial relevance There has been a growing interest to develop the functional properties of packaging materials and to obtain packed foods with better shelf-life and quality. Active packaging incorporating antimicrobials is one of the most promising areas since application of this method can improve safety of foods by inhibiting pathogenic bacteria or controlling spoilage flora by using minimum amounts of active compounds. Recently, health concerns of consumers and environmental problems related to plastics increased the popularity of using natural antimicrobial substances in edible films and coatings. This work employs a GRAS status natural antimicrobial lysozyme and zein a major by-product of rapidly growing oil and bioethanol industries which can form self-standing films, coatings or casings. The results of this study showed the possibility of using flexible antimicrobial and antioxidant films with controlled release properties in diary industry.Article Citation - WoS: 71Citation - Scopus: 94Development of Mono and Multilayer Antimicrobial Food Packaging Materials for Controlled Release of Potassium Sorbate(Academic Press Inc., 2011) Uz, Metin; Alsoy Altınkaya, SacideIn this study, cellulose acetate (CA) based mono and multilayer films including potassium sorbate (Psb) as an antimicrobial agent were prepared using dry phase inversion technique. To achieve appropriate controlled release of Psb, the structure of the films was changed by manipulating the film preparation conditions. In particular, the initial casting composition, wet casting thickness and drying temperature were varied. Results indicate that Psb release rate decreased as the CA content in the casting solution, the wet casting thickness and the drying temperature for both mono and multilayer films were increased. Compared to the results for the monolayer films, a significant decrease of Psb release rate through the multilayer films was recorded. Drying-induced crystallization was observed in the monolayer films. As a consequence of this, a fast initial release of Psb, controlled by Fickian diffusion, was followed by a slower release controlled by dissolution of Psb crystals. In multilayer films, no crystals were detected in the structure and the release rate was regulated only by diffusion of Psb through the film. The results suggest that the films prepared in this study can be used as food packaging materials for achieving controlled and extended release of Psb.Article Citation - WoS: 153Citation - Scopus: 192Development of Cellulose Acetate Based Antimicrobial Food Packaging Materials for Controlled Release of Lysozyme(Elsevier Ltd., 2009) Gemili, Seyhun; Yemenicioğlu, Ahmet; Alsoy Altınkaya, SacideAntimicrobial packaging materials were obtained by incorporation of lysozyme into cellulose acetate (CA) films. In order to achieve controlled release of lysozyme, the structure of the films was changed from highly asymmetric and porous to dense by modulating the composition of the initial casting solution. The highest release rate, soluble lysozyme activity and antimicrobial activity were obtained with the film prepared from 5% CA solution including 1.5% lysozyme. Increasing CA content in the casting solution decreased the porosity of the films, hence, reduced the release rate, maximum released lysozyme activities and the antimicrobial activities of the films. In contrast, immobilized lysozyme activities and the tensile strength of the films increased. The incorporation of lysozyme did not cause significant reductions in tensile strength and elongation at break values except in films prepared with 15% CA. This study showed the good potential of asymmetric CA films to achieve controlled release in antimicrobial packaging.Article Citation - WoS: 87Citation - Scopus: 111Development of Antioxidant Food Packaging Materials With Controlled Release Properties(Elsevier Ltd., 2010) Gemili, Seyhun; Yemenicioğlu, Ahmet; Alsoy Altınkaya, SacideIn this study, cellulose acetate (CA) films with different morphological features were prepared in order to control the release rates of low molecular weight natural antioxidants, L-ascorbic acid and L-tyrosine. Increasing CA content in the casting solution decreased the average pore size and porosity of the films, thus, reduced the diffusion rates of both antioxidants through the films. Although both antioxidants have similar molecular weights, L-tyrosine released into water much more slowly than L-ascorbic acid. The highest antioxidant activity in release test solutions was observed with highly porous L-tyrosine containing films. However, when the porosity of the films reduced, the antioxidant activity of L-ascorbic acid released into solution was found to be higher due to trapping of significant amount of L-tyrosine in dense films. The use of different antioxidants caused different changes in morphological and mechanical properties of the CA films. Varying the structural features of the films with the preparation conditions or using different surfaces of the films allowed the controlled release of each antioxidant. © 2009 Elsevier Ltd.

We have examined the film forming and coating properties of heat-treated fibroin, SF solution having different amounts of polyethylene glycol (PEG) and 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethyl aminopropyl)carbodiimide (EDC) cross-linked SF. Heat-treated SF material possessed a brittle structure, which resulted in poor film forming and coating properties. The optimum PEG amount in SF solution was determined as 17% (by weight) for an acceptable film forming and zero order release profile. EDC cross-linked SF has shown a very good film forming and coating property with a potential for sustaining the drug release from coated theophylline tablets. Dissolution data for coated theophylline tablets were analyzed using Ritger and Peppas equation to describe the mechanism of drug release. Drug release from the EDC coated tablets followed zero-order kinetics. Release rate constants were found to be 0.26, 0.19, 0.16% min-1 for single-coated, double coated, and triple coated tablets, respectively. These results clearly demonstrated that silk fibroin has high utility as a novel aqueous coating material for controlled release products.
