    Characterization of Antimicrobial Activities of Olive Phenolics on Yeasts Using Conventional Methods and Mid-Infrared Spectroscopy
    (Springer, 2019) Canal, Canan; Özen, Banu; Baysal, Ayşe Handan
    Olive 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.

    Mid-Infrared Spectroscopic Detection of Sunflower Oil Adulteration With Safflower Oil
    (CSIC Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Cientificas, 2019) Uncu, Oğuz; Özen, Banu; Tokatlı, Figen
    The oil industry is in need of rapid analysis techniques to differentiate mixtures of safflower-sunflower oils from pure oils. The current adulteration detection methods are generally cumbersome and detection limits are questionable. The aim of this study was to test the capability of a mid-infrared spectroscopic method to detect the adulteration of sunflower oil with safflower oil compared to fatty acid analysis. Mid-infrared spectra of pure oils and their mixtures at the 10-60% range were obtained at 4000-650 cm(-1) wavenumber and fatty acid profiles were determined. Data were analyzed by multivariate statistical analysis techniques. The lowest level of detection was obtained with mid-infrared spectroscopy at 30% while the fatty acid profile could determine adulteration at around 60%. Adulteration levels were predicted successfully using PLS regression analysis of infrared data with R-2 (calibration) = 0.96 and R-2 (validation) = 0.93. As a rapid and minimum waste generating technique, mid-infrared spectroscopy could be a useful tool for the screening of raw material to detect safflower-sunflower oil mixtures.

    Authentication of a Turkish Traditional Aniseed Flavoured Distilled Spirit, Raki
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2013) Yüceesoy, Dila; Özen, Banu
    Consumption 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).

    Detection of Adulteration of Extra-Virgin Olive Oil by Chemometric Analysis of Mid-Infrared Spectral Data
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2009) Gürdeniz, Gözde; Özen, Fatma Banu
    This study focuses on the detection and quantification of extra-virgin olive oil adulteration with different edible oils using mid-infrared (IR) spectroscopy with chemometrics. Mid-IR spectra were manipulated with wavelet compression previous to principal component analysis (PCA). Detection limit of adulteration was determined as 5% for corn-sunflower binary mixture, cottonseed and rapeseed oils. For quantification of adulteration, mid-IR spectral data were manipulated with orthogonal signal correction (OSC) and wavelet compression before partial least square (PLS) analysis. The results revealed that models predict the adulterants, corn-sunflower binary mixture, cottonseed and rapeseed oils, in olive oil with error limits of 1.04, 1.4 and 1.32, respectively. Furthermore, the data were analysed with a general PCA model and PLS discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) to observe the efficiency of the model to detect adulteration regardless of the type of adulterant oil. In this case, detection limit for adulteration is determined as 10%.
