Article Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 11Authentication of Pomegranate Juice in Binary and Ternary Mixtures With Spectroscopic Methods(Elsevier, 2023) Aykaç, Başak; Çavdaroğlu, Çağrı; Özen, BanuFruit juices are among the most commonly adulterated food products and especially pomegranate juice as a high value product is mixed with different adulterants for unfair economic profit. It was aimed to investigate the performances of UV–visible and Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopies combined with chemometric methods to determine adulteration of pomegranate juice with dark colored sour cherry and black carrot juices. Binary and ternary mixtures of pomegranate juice with 2 adulterants were prepared at 5–25% levels. After various data transformations, both spectroscopic data of authentic and adulterated samples were evaluated with different chemometric classification tools. Classification models with 97% correct classification rate for validation set were obtained both for UV–visible and FTIR spectral data. Accurate predictions of adulterant concentration were also achieved with chemometric models using both spectroscopic data. These spectroscopic techniques provide rapid and accurate prediction of pomegranate juice adulteration in binary and ternary mixtures with dark colored juices.Article Citation - WoS: 28Citation - Scopus: 29Detection of Vinegar Adulteration With Spirit Vinegar and Acetic Acid Using Uv–visible and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy(Elsevier, 2022) Çavdaroğlu, Çağrı; Özen, BanuVinegar is one of the commonly adulterated food products, and variations in product and adulterant spectrum make the detection of adulteration a challenging task. This study aims to determine adulteration of grape vinegars with spirit vinegar and synthetic acetic acid using different spectroscopic methods. For this purpose, grape vinegars were mixed separately with spirit vinegar and diluted synthetic acetic acid (4%) at 1–50% (v/v) ratios. Spectra of vinegars and mixtures were obtained with UV–visible and Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectrometers. Data were evaluated with various chemometric methods and artificial neural networks (ANN). Correct classification rates of at least 94.3% and higher values were obtained by the evaluation of both spectroscopic data along with their combination with chemometric methods and ANN for discrimination of non-adulterated and adulterated vinegars. UV–vis and FTIR spectroscopy can be rapid and accurate ways of detecting adulteration in vinegars regardless of adulterant type.Article Citation - WoS: 8Citation - Scopus: 10Use of Magic Sandwich Echo and Fast Field Cycling Nmr Relaxometry on Honey Adulteration With Corn Syrup(John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2021) Berk, Berkay; Çavdaroğlu, Çağrı; Grunin, Leonid; Ardelean, Ioan; Kruk, Danuta; Mazı, Bekir G.; Öztop, Halil Mecitconventional time domain nuclear magnetic resonance (TD-NMR) pulse sequence: magic sandwich echo (MSE) was used to detect the adulteration of honey by glucose syrup (GS) and high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) accompanied with T-1 and T-2 relaxation times. Also, fast field cycling NMR (FFC-NMR) relaxometry and multivariate analysis were performed to investigate the adulteration. RESULTS Higher maltose in GS and changing glucose to water ratio of HFCS gave high correlation with the crystal content values. In HFCS adulteration, two separate populations of protons having different T-2 values were detected and T-1 times were also used to determine GS adulteration. Addition of GS increased T-1 while addition of HFCS increased T-2, significantly. CONCLUSION The results showed that it is possible to differentiate the unadulterated and adulterated honey samples by using TD-NMR relaxation times and crystal content values obtained by the MSE sequence. By FFC-NMR relaxometry, not only GS addition but also the amount of GS was examined. The multivariate analysis technique of principal component analysis was able to distinguish the types of adulterants.Review Citation - WoS: 10Citation - Scopus: 10Authentication of Vinegars With Targeted and Non-Targeted Methods(Taylor & Francis, 2023) Çavdaroğlu, Çağrı; Çavdaroğlu, Çağrı; Özen, Banu; Özen, Fatma BanuThere has been a growing interest in vinegar, especially after the increasing reports about its beneficial health effects. Bioactive compounds of vinegar are associated with its antimicrobial, antioxidant, antidiabetic, antitumor, and anti-obesity types of activities. Quality of vinegar is related with the authenticity of the product besides the amounts of bioactive compounds in its composition. Addition of cheaper substitutes to higher quality vinegars and false labeling are some common authentication problems for this product. There are various examples of the use of targeted and untargeted methods in authentication studies for vinegars. Specific constituents and properties of vinegars such as molecular isotope ratios and individual volatile compounds were used to detect adulteration with targeted methods. On the other hand, untargeted methods, mostly in the form of the application of spectroscopic techniques, such as infrared and fluorescence spectroscopy in combination with chemometrics, provide an overall measurement. This review mainly focuses on adulteration types and elaborates on different targeted and non-targeted methods used to authenticate vinegars.Article Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 11Prediction of Vinegar Processing Parameters With Chemometric Modelling of Spectroscopic Data(Elsevier, 2021) Çavdaroğlu, Çağrı; Çavdaroğlu, Çağrı; Özen, Banu; Özen, Fatma BanuSpectroscopic methods have the advantages of being rapid and environmentally friendly and can be used in measurement and control of processing parameters during food production. It was aimed to predict several quality and chemical parameters of vinegar processing from UV-visible and mid-infrared spectroscopic profiles. Two processing lines of both traditional and submerged vinegar production from 2 separate grape varieties (green and red grapes) were monitored. Some of the important markers of the fermentation processes; pH, brix, total acidity, total flavonoid content, total and individual phenolic contents, organic acid, sugar, ethanol concentrations as well as UV-visible and mid-infrared spectra were obtained during both types of vinegar processing and quality and chemical parameters were predicted from spectroscopic data using chemometric methods. Individual UV-visible and mid-infrared spectral profiles along with low level of data fusion were used in building of chemometric prediction models. Accurate, reliable and robust prediction models (R(2)cal and R(2)val >0.9) were obtained for quality parameters mostly with combination of two spectroscopic datasets. Predictive models used for phenolic components were below average except for p-coumaric and syringic acids. Citric and acetic acids were the most accurately estimated ones among organic acids along with ethanol. Close agreements between reference and predicted values were obtained during the monitoring of changes of some quality parameters for vinegar fermentation process through rapid and simultaneous spectroscopic measurements.Article Citation - WoS: 13Citation - Scopus: 13Multi-Scale Benchtop 1h Nmr Spectroscopy for Milk Analysis(Academic Press, 2021) Söyler, Alper; Çıkrıkçı, Sevil; Çavdaroğlu, Çağrı; Bouillaud, Dylan; Farjon, Jonathan; Giraudeau, Patrick; Öztop, Mecit H.Benchtop NMR systems offers various advantages such as being easy to use, not requiring constant maintenance and being available at affordable prices. In this study, multiple aspects of benchtop NMR spectroscopy were explored to analyze milk in an industrial context, either regarding the quality of production or regarding the differentiation of the final product. The first part focuses on the production conditions of lactose hydrolysis in milk and quantitative online NMR spectroscopy was adapted to follow lactose hydrolysis in milk in continuous flow mode. The second part focuses on differentiating milk samples having different properties. 36 milk samples from France and Turkey were analysed and glycerol, fat and sugar contents were measured from the NMR spectra. Combination of spectroscopic data with a proposed Artificial Neural Network model enabled to classify milk of different origins and different properties. This study shows that benchtop NMR spectroscopy is a versatile non-destructive control method that can help controlling milk quality both during and after production. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd
