Article Citation - WoS: 25Citation - Scopus: 30Prediction of Chemical Parameters and Authentication of Various Cold Pressed Oils With Fluorescence and Mid-Infrared Spectroscopic Methods(Elsevier Ltd., 2021) Doğruer, Ilgın; Uyar, H. Hilal; Uncu, Oğuz; Özen, BanuIt was aimed to compare the performances of two spectroscopic methods, fluorescence and mid-infrared spectroscopy, in terms of their adulteration detection and estimation of several chemical properties for various cold pressed seed oils. Spectroscopic profiles, fatty acid, free fatty acid and total phenol contents of pumpkin seed, grape seed, black cumin oil, and sesame seed oils were determined and these oils were mixed with sunflower oil at 1–50% (v/v). Both spectroscopic techniques provided comparable results for determination of adulteration of each oil type and the most successful prediction was obtained for pumpkin seed oil at levels >%1. Combined data set of oils resulted in successful quantification of their free fatty acid value, total phenol and major fatty acids contents with both spectroscopic methods regardless of oil type. Both techniques could be used as reliable, fast and environmentally friendly alternatives in the analyses of different types of seed oils. © 2020 Elsevier LtdArticle Citation - WoS: 34Citation - Scopus: 42Importance of Some Minor Compounds in Olive Oil Authenticity and Quality(Elsevier Ltd., 2020) Uncu, Oğuz; Özen, BanuBackground: Consumption and production of olive oils have been increasing steadily worldwide mainly due to proven health benefits and sensorial characteristics of olive oil. M the same time, rising demand makes it harder to protect olive oil genuineness; therefore, inauthentic products have been always a serious problem in olive oil industry. Scope and approach: Some minor compounds such as pigments (chlorophylls and carotenoids) including their derivatives pyropheophytins (PPPs), diacylglycerols (DAGs) and fatty acid ethyl esters (FAEEs) are all prominent compounds with their discriminatory and descriptive properties. Among several different approaches, use of these components to differentiate genuine and adulterated olive oils could be a promising choice since it is harder to mimic these compounds in fake mixtures. Recent studies focus on these compounds as authentication and quality tools for olive oil and potential of these compounds are aimed to be reviewed. Key findings and conclusions: Results from literature indicated that these parameters could be used in both authenticity and quality determination of olive oils with some limitations. Pigments were found to be more promising in geographical and/or varietal classification. All of the discussed components have successful applications in determination of olive oil quality with respect to storage history and oil grades. However, in detection of certain types of adulteration techniques such as soft deodorization, reviewed parameters did not work effectively alone. Regulations could be updated with these findings and use of combined parameters including discussed compounds could be further investigated for unsolved authentication problems.Article Citation - WoS: 82Citation - Scopus: 103A Comparative Study of Mid-Infrared, Uv-Visible and Fluorescence Spectroscopy in Combination With Chemometrics for the Detection of Adulteration of Fresh Olive Oils With Old Olive Oils(Elsevier Ltd., 2019) Uncu, Oğuz; Uncu, Oğuz; Özen, Banu; Özen, Fatma BanuThe work aimed to detect and quantify adulteration of fresh olive oils with old olive oils from the previous harvest year by using different spectroscopic approaches in combination with chemometrics. Adulterated samples prepared in varying concentrations (10.50%(v/v)) were analyzed with fluorescence, Fourier transform-infrared (FT-IR), and ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopic methods. Orthogonal partial least square-discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) and partial least squares (PLS) regression techniques were used for the differentiation of adulterated oils from the pure oils and prediction of adulteration levels, respectively. After the application of various pre-treatment methods, all of the OPLS-DA classification models generated for every spectroscopic technique successfully differentiated adulterated and non-adulterated oils with over 90% correct classification rate. FT-IR + UV-vis and fluorescence spectral data were also successfully used to predict adulteration levels with high coefficient of determinations for both calibration (0.94 and 0.98) and prediction (0.91 and 0.97) models and low error values for calibration (4.22% and 2.68%), and prediction (5.20% and 2.82%), compared to individual FT-IR and UV-vis spectroscopy were obtained. Therefore, FT-IR + UV-vis and fluorescence spectroscopy as being fast and environmentally friendly tools have great potential for both classification and quantification of adulteration practices involving old olive oil.Article Citation - WoS: 14Citation - Scopus: 18Evaluation of Three Spectroscopic Techniques in Determination of Adulteration of Cold Pressed Pomegranate Seed Oils(Elsevier Ltd., 2020) Uncu, Oğuz; Napiórkowska, Alicja; Szajna, Tomasz K.; Özen, BanuIt was aimed to compare three spectroscopic methods in determination of adulteration of cold pressed pomegranate seed oils (PSOs) with sunflower oil in this research. UV–visible, mid-infrared and fluorescence spectra of pure and adulterated pomegranate oils (1–50%, v/v) were collected and data were analyzed with multivariate statistical analysis techniques. According to orthogonal partial least square discriminant analysis, best differentiation between pure and mixed samples was obtained with mid-infrared spectroscopy having 100% success rate. Fluorescence and UV–visible spectroscopy also provided good discrimination between samples with 96 and 88% successful classification rates, respectively. As a result of partial least square regression analysis, detection limits for mid-infrared, UV–visible and fluorescence spectroscopies are determined as >1, 5 and 10% in order. Since all spectroscopic methods provided detection of mixtures of cold pressed PSOs with sunflower oil at low concentrations they could serve as easy to use and rapid techniques in control laboratories. © 2020 Elsevier B.V.Article Citation - WoS: 42Citation - Scopus: 47Effects of Malaxation Temperature and Harvest Time on the Chemical Characteristics of Olive Oils(Elsevier Ltd., 2016) Jolayemi, Olusola Samuel; Tokatlı, Figen; Özen, BanuThe aim of the study was to determine the effects of harvest time and malaxation temperature on chemical composition of olive oils produced from economically important olive varieties with a full factorial experimental design. The oils of Ayvalik and Memecik olives were extracted in an industrial two-phase continuous system. The quality parameters, phenolic and fatty acid profiles were determined. Harvest time, olive variety and their interaction were the most significant factors. Malaxation temperature was significant for hydroxytyrosol, tyrosol, p-coumaric acid, pinoresinol and peroxide value. Early and mid-harvest oils had high hydroxytyrosol and tyrosol (maximum 20.7 mg/kg) and pigment concentrations (maximum chlorophyll and carotenoids as 4.6 mg/kg and 2.86 mg/kg, respectively). Late harvest oils were characterized with high peroxide values (9.2-25 meq O2/kg), stearic (2.4-3.1%) and linoleic acids (9.3-10.4%). Multivariate regression analysis showed that oxidative stability was affected positively by hydroxytyrosol, tyrosol and oleic acid and negatively by polyunsaturated fatty acids.Article Citation - WoS: 27Citation - Scopus: 30Combination of Visible and Mid-Infrared Spectra for the Prediction of Chemical Parameters of Wines(Elsevier Ltd., 2016) Şen, İlknur; Öztürk, Burcu; Tokatlı, Figen; Özen, BanuRapid and environmentally friendly methods for the prediction of chemical compositions have been an interest in the wine industry. The objective of the study was to show the potentials of combined use of visible and mid-infrared (MIR) spectroscopies to improve the prediction of various chemical compounds of wine as opposed to using mid-infrared range only. Wine samples of twelve grape varieties from two harvest years were analyzed. The chemical composition of wine samples was related to MIR and visible spectra using orthogonal partial least square (OPLS) regression technique. The prediction abilities were tested with crossvalidation and independent validation sets. The coefficient of determination of validation (R2 val) for anthocyanin compounds of red wines were between 0.76 and 0.90, and that for total phenol content was 0.90. Range of R2 val for glycerol, glycerol/ethanol ratio, malic acid, o-coumaric acid and °Brix were between 0.77 and 0.96. The spectral ranges that played significant roles in the predictions were also determined. The validations with independent data sets showed that the combination of visible and MIR ranges with multivariate methods improved the prediction of anthocyanin compounds and total phenols; produced comparable results for the rest of the parameters as MIR. This is the first study in the literature that shows the practical use of visible spectra along MIR. The combined use of these spectral ranges with multivariate models can be applied for the rapid, on-line determination of quality parameters and chemical profiles of wines.Article Citation - WoS: 15Citation - Scopus: 16Comparison of Some Chemical Parameters of a Naturally Debittered Olive (olea Europaea L.) Type With Regular Olive Varieties(Elsevier Ltd., 2014) Aktaş, Ayşe Burcu; Özen, Banu; Tokatlı, Figen; Şen, İlknurSome olives grown in Karaburun peninsula in the west part of Turkey and mostly coming from Erkence variety lose their bitterness while still on the tree and are called Hurma among locals. This olive type does not require further processing to remove the bitter compounds. In this study, sugar, organic acid and fatty acid profiles of Hurma, Erkence (not naturally debittered) and Gemlik (commonly consumed as table olive) olives were determined throughout 8 weeks of maturation period for two consecutive harvest seasons, and the results were analysed by principal component analysis (PCA). PCA of sugar and organic acid data revealed a differentiation in terms of harvest year but not on variety. Hurma olive is separated from others due to its fatty acid profile, and it has higher linoleic acid content compared to others. This might be an indication of increased desaturase enzyme activity for Hurma olives during natural debittering phase.Article Citation - WoS: 30Citation - Scopus: 34Authentication of a Turkish Traditional Aniseed Flavoured Distilled Spirit, Raki(Elsevier Ltd., 2013) Yüceesoy, Dila; Özen, BanuConsumption of traditional aniseed alcoholic beverage, raki, adulterated with methanol results in deaths, therefore, its detection is an important issue. In this study, mid-infrared spectra of pure and methanol adulterated (0.5-10% (vol/vol)) raki samples were collected with an attenuated total reflectance attachment of a Fourier-transform infrared spectrometer. Principal component analysis was used to discriminate pure and adulterated raki samples, then, a partial least square model was constructed to determine the adulterant methanol content in raki using mid-IR spectral data. A minimum threshold level of 0.5% methanol in raki samples was successfully detected. A good prediction model for determination of methanol adulteration ratio in raki samples was also constructed (R2 = 0.98 and RPD = 8.35).Article Citation - WoS: 105Citation - Scopus: 133Water Vapor and Oxygen-Barrier Performance of Corn-Zein Coated Polypropylene Films(Elsevier Ltd., 2010) Tıhmınlıoğlu, Funda; Atik, İsa Doğan; Özen, BanuA novel corn-zein coating structure on polypropylene (PP) films was developed to examine its feasibility as an alternative water vapor and oxygen-barrier for flexible packaging industry. The barrier properties of the resulting films were evaluated as affected by coating formulation (solvent, corn-zein, plasticizer concentration and plasticizer type). Corn-zein with different amounts (5% and 15%) was dissolved in 70% and 95% aqueous ethanol solution at 50 °C, respectively. Solutions of corn-zein plasticized by polyethylene glycol (PEG) and glycerol (GLY) with various levels (20% and 50%) were applied on corona-discharged-treated PP by using solvent-casting method. The significant improvements in water vapor and oxygen-barrier properties of uncoated PP films were obtained with corn-zein coating. Water vapor permeability (WVP) of the coated films decreased significantly with increasing corn-zein concentration. The application of plasticized corn-zein coating on PP films showed nearly more than three order of reduction in oxygen permeability (OP). The high water vapor and oxygen-barriers were obtained for films coated with coating formulation consisting of higher amounts of corn-zein plasticized by GLY. The statistical analysis defined the key parameters of coating formulation that had major effect on the final properties of coated PP films as corn-zein, plasticizer concentration, and plasticizer type. © 2009 Elsevier Ltd.
