    Biophysical Evaluation of Physiological Effects of Gilthead Sea Bream (sparus Aurata) Farming Using Ftir Spectroscopy
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2014) Ceylan, Çağatay; Tanrıkul, Tansel; Özgener, Hüseyin
    Sparus aurata is one of the two most important cultured fish species in the Mediterranean region. The present work investigates the effects of culturing in S. aurata liver tissue at the molecular level using Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. FTIR spectroscopy revealed dramatic differences between the wild and aquacultured fish liver cells, which mainly indicated that the level of glycogen increased in the aquacultured samples and the protein/lipid ratio decreased by 42.29% indicating that triglycerides and cholesterol esters increased and the protein content decreased in the aquacultured samples. The 15.99% increase in the level of unsaturation indicated elevated lipid peroxidation. Structural/organisational changes in the nucleic acids along with increased transcriptional status of the liver tissue cells were observed in the cultured fish tissue. All these results indicated that culturing induces significant changes in fish physiology. In addition FTIR spectroscopy is a promising method to monitor the physiological changes in fish physiology.

    Prediction of Various Chemical Parameters of Olive Oils With Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy
    (Academic Press Inc., 2015) Uncu, Oğuz; Özen, Banu
    Vibrational spectroscopic techniques offer advantages such as rapid and accurate measurements with minimum sample preparation and waste generation. In this study, it was aimed at determining some important quality parameters (oxidative stability, colour pigments, fatty acid profile and phenolic composition) of olive oils by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy as one of the vibrational spectroscopic methods. Partial least square calibration models were constructed in order to reveal any correlation between quality parameters and spectral data. Regression coefficients for developed models showed that oxidative stability (0.99), chlorophyll content (0.98), some major fatty acids (palmitic (0.87), oleic (0.94), and linoleic acids (0.97), saturated (0.91), monounsaturated (0.94) and polyunsaturated fatty acids (0.97)), hydroxytyrosol as a phenolic compound (0.97) and total phenolic content (0.99) were predicted successfully. Variable influence on the projection values indicated that palmitic, vanillic and cinnamic acids and hydroxytyrosol are the most significant contributors to oxidative stability of olive oils. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.
