    Influence of Soil Characteristics on the Phytochemistry of Evergreen Ivy (Hedera Helix L.) Leaves in Deciduous Forests
    (Wiley-v C H verlag Gmbh, 2025) Yildirim, Elif Begum; Özdemir, Durmuş; Ozer, Gulcin; Sen, Nisa Beril; Ozdemir, Emrah; Makineci, Ender; Ozdemir, Durmus; Guzelmeric, Etil; 04.01. Department of Chemistry; 04. Faculty of Science; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    The evergreen ivy (Hedera helix L.), traditionally used to treat respiratory conditions, contains triterpene saponins, primarily hederacoside C, and various phenolic compounds. This study investigated the relationships between the chemical composition of ivy leaves and their natural growing conditions (moisture, temperature, pH, and electrical conductivity of soil). Ivy leaves were collected monthly over 1 year from oak and beech forests. Hederacoside C, rutin, chlorogenic acid (ChA), neoChA, 4,5-dicaffeoylquinic acid (DCQA), and 3,5-DCQA were analyzed by high-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Soil parameter data, along with the quantitative HPLC results of ivy leaves, were first subjected to bivariate analysis, which revealed significant correlations, particularly between soil moisture, soil temperature, and the chemical composition of ivy leaves. In addition, ivy samples were classified and clustered based on seasons by principal component analysis (PCA) and hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA), regardless of their collection sites. Digitized HPTLC chromatograms were evaluated by PCA and partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) analyses; PCA enabled the grouping of ivy leaves based on their collection sites, and PLS-DA categorized the samples by seasons. The evaluation of the relationships between the phytochemistry of ivy leaves and their natural growing conditions has been reported for the first time.

    Comparison of Palynological Method and Chromatographic Analysis Combined With Chemometrics To Identify Botanical Origin of Propolis
    (Springer, 2023) Güzelmeriç, Etil; Özdemir, Durmuş; Sen, Nisa Beril; Erdem, Özge; Özdemir, Durmuş; Yeşilada, Erdem; 04.01. Department of Chemistry; 04. Faculty of Science; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    There has been a growing trend in consumer’s preferences for food supplements containing propolis due to having a wide range of phenolic compounds to promote health. Honeybees’ used main plant source will determine propolis chemical composition thus its biological activity. Thus, determination of the propolis botanical source is highly important for its standardization and prediction of its pharmacological activity. There are two commonly applied methods to seek propolis botanical sources: chromatographic techniques and palynological analysis. In this study, high-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) and ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography combined with mass spectrometer (LC-MS/MS) applied comparatively with pollen analysis to propolis samples. The results of the chromatographic analyses were evaluated with principal component analysis (PCA) and hierarchical clustering analysis (HCA). Consequently, chromatographic techniques applied in this study were found to be superior to pollen analysis to identify the main plant source of propolis. Besides, HPTLC images revealed not only main botanical sources but also minor sources of propolis. Therefore, HPTLC fingerprinting combined with PCA and HCA resulted in grouping propolis samples according to geographical regions. This study may lead to pharmaceutical industries for the quality assurance of propolis while preparing standardized propolis formulations in the market with desired pharmacological properties. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.
