Article Citation - WoS: 13Citation - Scopus: 14Uv-Vis Spectroscopy for the Estimation of Variety and Chemical Parameters of Olive Oils(Springer, 2021) Jolayemi, Olusola Samuel; Tokatlı, Figen; Özen, BanuOlive oils produced in different years from different varieties were studied with UV-Vis spectroscopy for classification and prediction. Multivariate models were created with second derivative spectral data, and tested with external validation sets. For varietal classification, orthogonal partial least square discriminant analysis resolved oil samples into various classes with correct classification rate more than 89% for validation set (n = 20). A sample of fresh and stored oils were also classified with a correct classification rate more than 90% for validation set (n = 20). In the predictions of chemical parameters (70 for calibration, 30 for validation), the combination of UV-Vis spectroscopy with orthogonal partial least square regression models showed potential for simultaneous quantification of chlorophylls (0.6-5.6 mg/kg; R-val(2) , 0.79; RPD, 1.97); carotenoids (0.6-3.3 mg/kg; R-val(2), 0.80; RPD, 2.38); ratio of mono to polyunsaturated fatty acids (3.6-8.8; R-val(2) , 0.77; RPD, 1.90), oleuropein derivatives (1.2-62.3 mg/kg; R-val(2) , 0.66; RPD, 1.77), and total phenol content (62.2-505 mg/kg; R-val(2) , 0.67; RPD, 1.74), although showed poor to moderate results for the quantification of free fatty acid (0.3-5.4%; R-val(2), 0.67; RPD, 1.64); monounsaturated fatty acids (66-76.5%; R-val(2) , 0.71; RPD, 1.67); polyunsaturated fatty acids (8.6-18.2%; R-val(2) , 0.73; RPD, 1.65). The models were unable to estimate oxidative stability, saturated fatty acids, and individual phenolics such as hydroxytyrosol, pinoresinol, luteolin, total phenolic acids (R-val(2) , 0.26-0.64; RPD, 0.60-1.52). Results showed the capacities of UV-Vis spectroscopy for classification of olive oils, and prediction of total pigments and phenol content and ratio of mono to polyunsaturated fatty acids.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 2Fatty Acid Alkyl Ester and Wax Compositions of Olive Oils as Varietal Authentication Indicators(Springer, 2021) Uncu, Oğuz; Özen, BanuMinor components of olive oils can be good markers for their authenticity, which is a significant quality issue for this product. It was aimed to determine individual and total fatty acid alkyl esters and waxes as minor constituents of olive oil and to investigate their novel varietal authentication capability separately and in combination for three main olive cultivars grown in three distinct locations of Aegean Region of Turkey. In addition, basic quality and purity parameters as free fatty acid, K values and fatty acid profiles were also determined for the characterization of the samples. Olive oil samples from different cultivars had different fatty acid profiles and two of these varieties had similar quality parameters. Statistical analyses were conducted with orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) to differentiate varieties with respect to their individual and combined parameters of fatty acid alkyl esters and waxes. For calibration sets, use of individual fatty acid alkyl esters profile resulted in 80% correct classification rate while waxes alone was 67% successful in classifying the olive oils according to variety. It was found that alkyl esters in combination with waxes were more effective in discrimination of olive oils with respect to cultivar compared to their individual forms and the correct classification rate for the generated model is 92% for calibration set. Since fatty acid alkyl esters along with waxes have effect on cultivar differentiation, they could have a potential as authentication tools for olive oil besides their known quality characteristics.Article Citation - WoS: 13Citation - Scopus: 17Characterization of Antimicrobial Activities of Olive Phenolics on Yeasts Using Conventional Methods and Mid-Infrared Spectroscopy(Springer, 2019) Canal, Canan; Özen, Banu; Baysal, Ayşe HandanOlive fruit is very rich in terms of phenolic compounds. Antimicrobial activities of various phenolic compounds against bacteria and fungi are well established; however, their effects on yeasts have not been examined. Aim of this study was to investigate the antimicrobial effects induced by olive phenolic compounds, including tyrosol, hydroxytyrosol, oleuropein, luteolin and apigenin against two yeast species, Aureobasidium pullulans and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. For this purpose, yeasts were treated with various concentrations (12.5-1000ppm) of phenolic compounds and reduction in yeast population was followed with optical density measurements with microplate reader, yeast colony forming units and mid-infrared spectroscopy. All phenolic compounds were effective on both yeasts, especially 200ppm and higher concentrations have significant antimicrobial activity; however, effects of lower levels depend on the type of phenolic compound. According to mid-infrared spectral data, significant changes were observed in 1200-900cm(-1) range corresponding to carbohydrates of yeast structure as a result of exposure to all phenolic compounds except tyrosol. Spectra of tyrosol and luteolin treated yeasts also showed changes in 1750-1500cm(-1) related to amide section and 3600-3000cm(-1) fatty acid region. Since phenolic compounds from olives were effective against yeasts, they could be used in food applications where yeast growth showed problem. In addition, FTIR spectroscopy could be successfully used to monitor and characterize antimicrobial activity of phenolic compounds on yeasts as complementary to conventional microbiological methods.
