    Vibrational Spectroscopy Coupled with Chemometrics for Olive Oil Authentication: Recent Advances and Future Perspectives

    İlyasoğlu, Huri

    Food authentication has become a critical issue for consumers, producers, and regulatory authorities, particularly for high-value products such as olive oil, which is highly susceptible to adulteration. In recent years, vibrational spectroscopy techniques, including mid-infrared (MIR), near-infrared (NIR), and Raman spectroscopy, have attracted significant attention as rapid and non-destructive analytical tools for assessing the authenticity of olive oil. When combined with multivariate chemometric approaches, these techniques enable the extraction of meaningful spectral fingerprints and the development of predictive models for adulteration detection. This review provides a comprehensive evaluation of studies conducted over the past decade, with a focus on the application of vibrational spectroscopy coupled with chemometrics for the authentication of olive oil. The reviewed studies demonstrate that combining vibrational spectroscopy with chemometric methods offers advantages, including minimal sample preparation, rapid analysis, environmental sustainability, and potential suitability for routine quality control and official food inspection. The current limitations and future research directions are also highlighted to facilitate the extensive implementation of these techniques in olive oil authentication frameworks.

    Arslan Burnaz, Nesibe; Baltacı, Cemalettin; İlyasoğlu, Huri

    Toxic furanic compounds such as 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) and 2-furfural (F) can form during the processing and storage of non-alcoholic beverages (NABs). This study aimed to determine the levels of HMF and F in a wide range of NAB categories, including fruit juices and nectars, carbonated soft drinks, non-carbonated soft drinks, energy drinks, and coffee with milk drinks. The levels of HMF and F were determined using a validated analytical method. The HMF and F levels of the studied samples varied depending on the type of product. The coffee with milk drinks exhibited the highest levels, while the carbonated soft drinks exhibited the lowest. Notably, the HMF levels of most of the coffee with milk drinks exceeded 10 mg L−1. The findings provide novel insights into the presence of furanic compounds in NABs and emphasise the importance of raising consumer awareness regarding potential dietary exposure to furanic compounds, particularly from coffee drinks.

    Küçük, Murat; Baltaci, Cemalettin; İlyasoğlu, Huri; Karpuz, Omer; Yilmaz, Firat; Kılınç, Kagan; Güler, Burak; Topkaya, Gamze

    This study aimed to investigate the utilization of sesame, sunflower seed, almond, peanut, and coconut as condiments for the enrichment of mulberry leather, known locally as mulberry pestil. The investigation involved a comprehensive analysis encompassing proximate composition, mineral content, color, physicochemical, and sensory properties. The studied parameters of enriched samples were compared with those of the plain sample. Employing multivariate statistical techniques enabled the differentiation of the enriched leather samples. Consequently, the leather samples were categorized into three groups by the principal component analysis according to their physicochemical and chemical attributes. Strong positive correlations were observed among the studied parameters, as indicated by Spearman's rank correlation coefficients. The physicochemical and chemical properties of enriched samples exhibited substantial variability. The enriched products had abundant calcium, potassium, magnesium, iron, and zinc levels. These findings revealed that incorporating these condiments enhanced the nutritional values of leather samples, especially in terms of minerals. 100 g of the enriched mulberry leathers had 68.0-70.7 g of carbohydrate, 4.6-5.7 g of protein, 3.6-5.9 g of fat, and 336-359 kcal of energy value. The enriched products might be proposed to provide nutrients and energy in emergencies, especially for adolescents and people affected by disasters.

    Bursa, Batuhan; İlyasoğlu, Huri

    The demand for gluten-free foods has increased due to health-based issues and lifestyle choices. This study aimed to develop a gluten-free cookie with enhanced nutritional value. For this reason, the composite flour from corn flour (CF) and lentil flour (LF) was prepared for cookie formulation. To eliminate the possible negative impact of LF on the sensorial properties of the cookie, lemon peel powder (LPP) was incorporated into the cookie formulation. The effects of the LF level of composite flour and the incorporation level of LPP on the physical, textural, and sensorial properties of the cookie were investigated via response methodology. The optimal levels were found as 16 g LF and 1 g LPP for 100 g composite flour. The physical, textural, and sensorial properties, proximate composition, vitamin C and total phenolic contents, and antioxidant capacity of the developed cookie and control cookies were determined. The developed cookie had a higher nutritional value than the control cookie made from CF in terms of protein, dietary fibre, ash, and vitamin C. Moreover, it presented higher total phenolic content and radical scavenging activity. According to these results, the developed cookie can be proposed for a gluten-free diet.

    İlyasoğlu, Huri; Arslan Burnaz, Nesibe; Arpa Zemzemoğlu, Tuba Eda

    Consumers' demand for healthy foods has been increased. The aim of this study was to develop a functional cookie from wheat flour with flaxseed (FS) and Cornelian cherry (CC). The effects of the levels of FS flour (10–30 g for 100 g composite flour) and CC powder (2–10 g for 100 g composite flour) in the cookie formulation on the cookie properties were investigated by using response surface methodology. The lightness of the cookies was decreased with the addition of the FS and CC. The incorporation of the FS into the formulation enhanced the content of omega-3 fatty acids. Both FS and CC enhanced the total phenolic contents (TPCs) and antioxidant capacity of the cookies. Moreover, they did not have effects on the hardness and overall acceptability. The developed cookie contained FS (23.6 g 100 g−1) and CC (10 g 100 g−1) that provided α-linolenic acid (16.5 g 100 g−1), TPC (340.2 mg GAE 100 g−1), and antioxidant capacity (996.6 μmol TEAC 100 g−1). Our study indicated that the combination of wheat flour with FS with CC can have the potential to enhance the nutritional and functional values of the cookies. Novelty impact statement: The combination of wheat flour with flaxseed and Cornelian cherry in the cookie formulation enhanced the contents of omega-3 fatty acids, total phenolic content, and antioxidant capacity of the cookies. The developed cookie may be an alternative product for consumers who look for healthy bakery products.

    Water soluble chitosan-caffeic acid conjugates as a dual functional polymeric surfactant

    İlyasoğlu, Huri; Guo, Zheng

    A water soluble chitosan-caffeic acid conjugate (C-CAC) was prepared by chemical modification of chitosan using activated caffeoyl with dimethyl aminopyridine as a catalyst. The C-CAC was characterized using UV–visible spectrometry, Fourier transform infrared, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopies and differential scanning calorimetry. The caffeoyl content in the C-CAC was 65 mg/g. To study the introduction of a new function into chitosan, the antioxidant activities of the synthesized C-CAC was determined using three in vitro assays: DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl), ABTS (2,2′-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid)), and ferric reducing antioxidant power. The half inhibition concentration values for DPPH and ABTS radicals were 370 and 172 μg/ml, respectively; showing its good radical scavenging activity. The emulsifying properties of the C-CAC were investigated by preparing 10% fish oil-in-water emulsions. C-CAC not only showed a good ability to stabilize oil-in-water emulsions, but also was more effective in retarding lipid oxidation compared to chitosan; implying that the synthesized C-CAC was functioning in an oil-in-water emulsion system as both emulsifier and antioxidant. Chitosan-phenolic conjugates, as a biopolymer-based surfactant, may represent a promising ingredient for enabling stable oxidation-sensitive oil-in-water emulsions.

    İlyasoğlu, Huri; Anankanbil, Sampson; Nadzieja, Marcin; Guo, Zheng

    To develop novel polymeric emulsifiers/stabilizers for improved functionalities, an array of chitin fatty acid esters (chitin octanoate, laurate, palmitate, and stearate) were synthesized using a trifluoroacetic anhydride (TFAA)/methanesulfonic acid (MSA) catalytic system. The synthesized products were characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC); successful lipophilization of chitin was confirmed by analysis results of FTIR, NMR, and DSC, with the degree of substitution (DS) of the products that ranged from 0.89 to 1.05. Ten percent fish oil-in-water emulsions were prepared using the synthesized chitin fatty acid esters, and characteristic properties (droplet size, zeta potential, and creaming stability) were determined. It turned out that chitin octanoate and chitin laurate were capable to solely enable homogeneous nanoemulsion (200–240 nm, polydispersity index 0.22–0.26), with excellent stability (no creaming after 14-day storage), which may find great potential applications in food, biomedical, and cosmetics sectors.
