Article Citation - WoS: 52Citation - Scopus: 55Wheatgrass Juice To Wheat Grass Powder: Encapsulation, Physical and Chemical Characterization(Elsevier Ltd., 2017) Akbaş, Elif; Kilercioğlu, Mete; Önder, Özge Nur; Köker, Alperen; Söyler, Betül; Öztop, Mecit HalilWheatgrass juice (Triticum aestivum L.) is known as a healthy drink due to its high antioxidant activity and phenolic content. In order to avoid the undesirable odor and protect the functional compounds, wheatgrass juice was encapsulated using maltodextrin and whey protein. Antioxidant and phenolic content, mean particle size and distribution, morphology, simulated digestion and thermal stability experiments were conducted on the encapsulated powders. Results showed that antioxidant activity was in between 0.30 and 0.06 mg 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH)/g powder and phenolic content was 3.52–2.28 mg gallic acid equivalent (GAE)/g powder. Encapsulated powders showed good stability in gastric juice and had 62% higher phenolic content compared to the intestinal fluid within 10 min digestion. Phenolic content of powders was also protected against thermal treatment at 40 °C, 55 °C and 70 °C. Kinetic parameters for degradation of the phenolics were well estimated (R2⩾0.85) using fractional conversion model.Article Citation - WoS: 118Citation - Scopus: 127Investigating the Effects of Food Matrix and Food Components on Bioaccessibility of Pomegranate (punica Granatum) Phenolics and Anthocyanins Using an In-Vitro Gastrointestinal Digestion Model(Elsevier Ltd., 2014) Şengül, Hafizenur; Sürek, Ece; Nilüfer Erdil, DilaraEffects of food matrix and individual food components on potential bioaccessibility of pomegranate were investigated by means of simulating in vitro gastrointestinal (GI) digestion. The foodstuffs (sunflower oil, skim milk, cooked lean meat, bread, skim yogurt, probiotic yogurt, apple, lemon, honey, soy milk, cream, and soybean) and the food components (gluten, casein, isolated meat protein, lactose, fructose, galactose, glucose, salt, ascorbic acid, starch, cooked starch, tocopherol, linoleic acid, cellulose, citric acid and pectin) were codigested with pomegranate in model systems to better understand matrix effects. Total phenolic content (TPC) and total anthocyanin content (TAC) were determined by spectrophotometric methods and major phenolics/anthocyanins were analyzed by RP-HPLC/PDA detection both before and after in vitro GI digestion at post gastric (PG), dialyzable (IN) and non-dialyzable (OUT) fractions. Phenolics of pomegranate were found to be stable during gastric conditions (115%), with 25% loss in pancreatic digestion, available (14%) in IN. Although preserved (89%) in PG, anthocyanins were lost in pancreatic digestion (38%), but still available (12%) in IN. Milk, bread, yogurt, probiotic yogurt, lactose, starch, cellulose, salt, citric acid or tocopherol codigestion with pomegranate decreased TPC for all fractions. Proteins affected losses in PG and OUT fractions. Carbohydrates such as starch, lactose, glucose and pectin appeared to affect the loss of phenolics and exerted 2-fold decreases in serum fraction (IN). For TAC, only meat, soymilk or cream codigestion with pomegranate resulted in IN losses. Proteins did not significantly affect TAC in IN, but were inhibitory in PG. However, carbohydrates and fatty acids significantly increased TAC in IN. Generally cyanidins were found to be more stable in food matrices and pancreatic conditions than other anthocyanins.Article Citation - WoS: 94Citation - Scopus: 106Distribution of Simple Phenols, Phenolic Acids and Flavonoids in Turkish Monovarietal Extra Virgin Olive Oils for Two Harvest Years(Elsevier Ltd., 2009) Ocakoğlu, Derya; Tokatlı, Figen; Özen, Fatma Banu; Korel, FigenMonovarietal extra virgin olive oils extracted from six dominant and economically important Turkish olive cultivars (memecik, erkence, domat, nizip-yaglik, gemlik, ayvalik) were examined for their simple phenolics, phenolic acids and flavonoid compounds over 2005 and 2006 harvest years. Total phenol contents, oxidative stabilities and chromatic ordinates as colour parameters were also measured. The most typical phenolic compounds that were identified in both years are hydroxytyrosol, tyrosol, vanillic acid, p-coumaric acid, cinnamic acid, luteolin, and apigenin. Multivariate data were analysed by principal component and partial least square-discriminant analyses. It was observed that phenolic profiles of olive oils depended highly on harvest season. In addition, oils of different olive cultivars have different distribution of phenols. No significant correlation was observed between oxidative stability and phenolic compounds. Increase in peroxide value over an accelerated oxidation period of 11 days showed weak correlations with total phenol content, vanillin, syringic acid and colour parameter a*, as 0.56, 0.55, -0.42, and 0.51, respectively, in terms of correlation coefficient r.
