    Effect of Marination on the Formation of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Grilled Vegetables
    (Wiley, 2025) Kacmaz Ozcetin, Sibel; Artok, Levent
    The effect of marination on the formation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) in charcoal-grilled vegetables was studied. Various marinade ingredients, including apple cider vinegar, red grape vinegar, lemon juice, garlic powder, black pepper, and the food additive tert-butylhydroquinone (TBHQ) were applied to vegetable samples before charcoal grilling. The total phenolic content (TPC) and total antioxidant capacity (TAC) of each marinade ingredient were assessed for their contribution to PAH inhibition. A substantial decrease in PAH4 formation was observed in marinated vegetables. Red grape vinegar exhibited the strongest average inhibitory effect on total PAH4 formation (75%), followed by apple vinegar (68%), lemon juice (52%), garlic powder (34%), and black pepper (30%). Additionally, the TBHQ (67%) demonstrated a strong inhibitory effect, reducing total PAH4 formation by 67%. These findings offer valuable insights for reducing PAH levels in grilled vegetables and preventing their formation.

    Palladium-Catalysed Regio- and Stereoselective Arylative Substitution of Gamma,delta-Epoxy Esters and Amides by Sodium Tetraaryl Borates
    (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2020) Bilgi, Yasemin; Kuş, Melih; Artok, Levent
    Palladium-catalysed reactions of gamma,delta-epoxy-alpha,beta-unsaturated esters and amides with NaBAr(4)reagents proceeded regio- and stereoselectively, producing allylic homoallyl alcohols with aryl-substituents in the allylic position for a wide range of substrates. AsPh(3)was found to be a competent ligand for the arylation reaction, whereas phosphine ligand/Lewis acidic organoboron combinations favoured the substitution reaction by oxygen nucleophiles (e.g.H2O, ROH).

    Rhodium Catalysed Chemo- and Stereoselective Arylative and Alkenylative Cyclisation Reactions of Unsymmetric Diynes Containing a Terminal Alkyne Moiety With Organoboronic Acids
    (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2010) Artok, Levent; Kuş, Melih; Ürer, Bağdagül N.; Türkmen, Gülşah; Aksın Artok, Özge
    Unsymmetric diynes possessing a terminal alkyne moiety reacted with organoboronic acids both chemo- and stereoselectively to afford arylated or alkenylated exocyclic dienes by catalysis from the [Rh(cod)OCH 3] 2 complex. The use of a polar protic solvent, e.g. CH 3OH is required for the success of the process under mild conditions. © 2010 The Royal Society of Chemistry.

    Influence of Menthol on Caffeine Disposition and Pharmacodynamics in Healthy Female Volunteers
    (Springer Verlag, 2003) Gelal, Ayşe; Güven, Hülya; Balkan, Dilara; Artok, Levent; Benowitz, Neal L.
    Objectives: The present study was undertaken to determine whether a single oral dose of menthol affects the metabolism of caffeine, a cytochrome P 450 1A2 (CYP1A2) substrate, and pharmacological responses to caffeine in people. Methods: Eleven healthy female subjects participated in a randomized, double-blind, two-way crossover study, comparing the kinetics and effects of a single oral dose of caffeine (200 mg) in coffee taken together with a single oral dose of menthol (100 mg) or placebo capsules. Serum caffeine concentrations and cardiovascular and subjective parameters were measured throughout the study. Results: Co-administration of menthol resulted in an increase of caffeine tmax values from 43.6 ± 20.6 min (mean ± SD) to 76.4 ± 28.0 min (P<0.05). The Cmax values of caffeine were lower in the menthol phase than in the placebo phase, but this effect was not statistically significant (P=0.06). (AUG)0-24, (AUC)0-∞, terminal half-life and oral clearance were not affected by menthol. Only nine subjects' cardiovascular data were included in the analysis because of technical problems during the measurements. After caffeine, heart rate decreased in both treatment phases. The maximum decrease in heart rate was less in the menthol phase (-8.9 ± 3.9 beats/min) than in the placebo phase (-13.1 ± 2.1 beats/min) (P = 0.024). There were no statistically significant differences in systolic and diastolic blood pressures between the two treatments. Conclusions: We conclude that a single oral dose of pure menthol (100 mg) delays caffeine absorption and blunts the heart-rate slowing effect of caffeine, but does not affect caffeine metabolism. The possibility that menthol slows the absorption of other drugs should be considered.
