Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 5Antioxidant and Antimicrobial Activities of Plants Grown in the Mediterranean Region(John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2022) Kaçar, D.; Bayraktar, Oğuz; Erdem, C.; Alamri, A.S.; Galanakis, C.M.Background: The main objective of this research was to identify plant species with possible bioactivities based on their total phenol content, antioxidant, and antimicrobial properties. Therefore, different parts of 42 plant species grown in the Mediterranean region were extracted with aqueous ethanol solutions to prepare extracts with antioxidant and antimicrobial activities, mainly resulting from their total phenol contents. No detailed laboratory data on the flora of this area exists regarding their total phenol contents and total antioxidant activities. Results: Yields of extraction for each plant material were determined. Extracts were characterized based on their total phenol contents, total antioxidant (both hydrophilic and lipophilic), and antimicrobial activities using Folin–Ciocalteu, Photochemiluminescence, disc diffusion, and microdilution methods, respectively. The extract of Hypericum empetrifolium had the relatively highest total water-soluble and lipid-soluble antioxidant activities. Sarcopoterium spinosum extract had relatively high total phenol content. Preliminary screening study was conducted with the disc diffusion method to evaluate the extracts' antimicrobial activities. 26 out of 42 plant species showed significant antimicrobial activities against the growth of microorganisms. Microdilution assays were performed to evaluate the most active plant species with their minimum inhibition concentrations. H. empetrifolium, Pistacia terebinthus, Arbutus unedo, and Cistus parviflorus were the most antimicrobial plant species among those investigated. CONCLUSION: The new potential sources for the isolation of bioactive natural compounds from specific plant species could be possible with the help of this present screening study. Isolated bioactive natural compounds can be utilized as raw materials in cosmetics, nutraceuticals, food supplements, and pharmaceutical industries. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.Conference Object Visualization of Equilibrium Fcc Catalyst Surface by Afm and Sem-Eds(American Chemical Society, 2003) Bayraktar, Oğuz; Erdoğan, G.; Kugler, Edwin L.[No abstract available]Conference Object Antioxidant, Antimicrobial and Cytotoxic Activities of Some Turkish Plant Extracts(John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2006) Altıok, Evren; Asbagh, L. Abbasi; Bulut, Çisem; Ülkü, Semra; Bayraktar, OğuzPlant extracts have been known to possess notable biological activity, including antioxidant, antimicrobial and cytotoxic properties. There is a growing interest in the use of natural products in the human food industries as consumer resistance to synthetic additives increases. These products can be used to improve human health. In vitro antioxidant, antimicrobial and cytotoxic activities of ethanol extracts of some plants from Urla region in Turkey were investigated. Plant materials were collected from Pistacia lentiscus, Vitex agnus-castus, Cistus creticus and Nerium oleander in October, November and December.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 2Incorporation of Equisetum Arvense Extract Into Silk Fibroin-Hyaluronic Acid Sponge Matrices for Wound Dressing Applications(Elsevier, 2012) Uslu, Mehmet Emin; Erdoğan, İpek; Bayraktar, OğuzEquisetum arvense extract has frequently been investigated for its antioxidant capacity, antimicrobial and antitumor properties. However, one of the challenges in natural compound investi-gations is to maintain the stability of polyphenolic compounds during their storage and applications. For this purpose extracts can be incorporated into different forms of biomaterial. In this research silk fibroin (SF) and hyaluronic acid (HA) was used as sponge matri-ces for wound dressing application.Conference Object In Vitro Antitumor Activity of Sarcopoterium Spinosum Leaf Extract With Bioactive Natural Compounds(Elsevier, 2013) Süngüç, Ceren; Erdoğan, İpek; Uslu, Mehmet Emin; Bayraktar, OğuzCancer cell lines cause generation of reactive oxygen species and free radicals at high levels (Wang and Yi, 2008). Then generated free radicals lead to breakdown of the structure of DNA, lipid or protein (Gul et al., 2011). When plant extracts including antioxidant phytochemicals are exposed to the redox reactions, the harmful effects of free radicals are effectively prevented. The aim of present research was to evaluate the antitumor potential of the extract derived from Sarcopoterium spinosum leaves. The leaves of S. spinosum were collected in Izmir, Turkey. Total phenol content of ethanolic.Conference Object Investigation of Anti-Tumoral Activity of Cistus Creticus Extract Against Pc-3 Cell Line(Elsevier, 2013) Erdoğan, İpek; Süngüç, Ceren; Uslu, Mehmet Emin; Bayraktar, OğuzRecent studies have revealed that plant extracts show cytotoxic activities against cancer cell lines by ceasing cell division in particular phases (Xu et al., 2012, Yıldırım et al., 2013). Expression of specific genes was found to be activated according to pathway in which cell death occurs. Objective of this study was to identify antitumoural effect of Cistus creticus, which is a perennial shrub, found in Mediterranean region, against prostate cancer cell line by measuring the cytotoxic activities and apoptotic gene expression levels.Book Part Polyelectrolytes Thermodynamics and Rheology Preface(Springer, 2014) Visakh, P. M.; Bayraktar, Oğuz; Alfredo Pico, Guillermo[No abstract available]Article Citation - WoS: 6Antioxidant, Antimicrobial and Cytotoxic Activities of Extracts From Some Selected Mediterranean Shrub Species (maquis)(Biointerface Research Applied Chemistry, 2016) Bayraktar, Oğuz; Altıok, Evren; Yılmazer, Özgür; Rusçuklu, Dane; Büyüköz, MeldaIn this study in vitro antioxidant, antimicrobial and cytotoxic activities of ethanol extracts of some plants from Urla region in Turkey were investigated. Plant material samples of Pistacia lentiscus, Vitex agnus-castus, Cistus creticus and Nerium oleander were collected in October, November and December. The harvesting time significantly affected their antioxidant, antimicrobial and cytotoxic activities of these plant extracts. The highest biological activities in terms of antioxidant, antimicrobial and cytotoxic activities were observed for the leaf extract of C. creticus. The applied doses of leaf extracts of C. creticus, P. lentiscus, and N. oleander resulted in higher Bax and GAPDH expressions than those for control cells. These plant extracts may trigger apoptosis and may be a promising natural source for prostate cancer treatment.Article Citation - WoS: 8Wound Healing Effects of Various Fractions of Olive Leaf Extract (ole) on Mouse Fibroblasts(Ars Docendi, 2018) Erdoğan, İpek; Bayraktar, Oğuz; Uslu, Mehmet Emin; Tüncel, ÖzgeOlive (Olea europaea) leaf has been introduced as a potential therapeutic in wound healing owing to combined antioxidant and antimicrobial activity. Comparison of crude extract and its fractions in terms of antioxidant capacity, antimicrobial and cytotoxic activity to gain insight about cell migration rate under exogenous stress of H2O2, as a hallmark of wound healing constituted the objective of this study. Oleuropein-containing fraction exerted the highest cell migration rate among other fractions that contains hydroxytyrosol, verbascoside and luteolin, whilst treatment with high concentrations (50 mu g/ml) of this fraction simultaneously with H2O2 caused a dramatic decline in cell migration, resulting in the loss of cell adherence. Results overall indicated that active compounds caused an imbalance in redox signaling beyond a critical concentration. Comparison of fractions and crude extract also revealed that crude extract promoted cell migration by 20%, which may be attributed to synergistic effect of undefined phenolics.Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 8A Research on the Production of Silk Sericin Powders by Using Spray Drying Method(Ege Üniversitesi, 2009) Genç, Gözde; Bayraktar, Oğuz; Başal, GüldemetSericin protein is usually discarded as a waste in silk industry. Production of silk sericin powders, which can be incorporated into fibers used in textile industry, by spray drying method will enable value-added utilization of waste sericin. in this study aqueous sericin solutions were used as raw material for the production of dry powders using a lab-scale spray dryer. A linear regression analyses were employed, in addition to experimental design at two levels with three factors for the analysis of three responses: moisture content, particle type and agglomeration degree. The process factors were the drying air temperature (120°C and 160°C), the feed rate (1.25x10-4 and 2.5x10-4 dms -), and the concentration of sericin solutions of 10% and 30% (w/w) fed to the spray dryer. The three responses were analyzed statistically to determine the effective parameters and it was concluded that moisture content depended on three factors-drying air temperature being the dominant parameter. Particle size and shape depended mainly on feed rate and agglomeration depended on the moisture content of the product.
