    The aroma profile of butter produceusing different starter cultures; [Aromatski profil maslaca proizvedenih korištenjem različitih starter kultura]

    Şengül, Mustafa; Akgül, Halil İbrahim; Ürkek, Bayram

    The aroma of fermented dairy products is greatly influenced by starter cultures and by the lactic acid bacteria strains that are used as starter cultures. Experimental butter samples were produced using no starter culture, by a commercial starter culture (Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis, Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris, Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis biovar. diacetylactis, Leuconostoc mesenteroides), by a prepared bacteria mix (Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis EM1, Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris EM28, Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis biovar. diacetylactis G49, Leuconostoc mesenteroides B3), and by a prepared bacteria mix fortified with Lactobacillus rhamnosus B19 (L. rhamnosus B19). The aroma profile of the butter samples was investigated using a gas chromatography mass spectometry method (GC-MS). A total of 92 components were determined in the butter samples, including acids (12), alcohols (20), aldehydes (9), alkanes (6), esters (8), ketones (19) and several other aroma compounds (18). The sample containing the prepared starter culture had the most detectable aroma components, while the lowest number of aromatic components were found in the sample without a starter culture. 2,3-butanedione (diacetyl) was not detected in the sample without a starter culture. 2-Butanone 3-hydroxy-(acetoin) content was the highest in the sample containing the commercial starter culture and the lowest in the sample without a starter culture.

    Öz, Mehmet; Baltaci, Cemalettin; Fidan, Muhammed Said; Karatas, Seyda Merve

    Volatile oil analysis, phenolic constituents, antioxidant capacity, antimicrobial activity, vitamin C, and enzyme activities of the fruits of Rhus coriaria L. were studied. The chemical with the highest percentage was sesquiterpene hydrocarbons with 40.4%. The major compound was detected as caryophyllene (36.9%). The main phenolic constituents of fruit samples were gallic acid, syringic acid, protocatechuic acid, and 4hydroxybenzoic acid. The highest phenolic constituent of fruits was gallic acid. Ferric (Ill) ion reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) capacity (14.9 mg FeSO4 eq./g), free radical scavenging (ABTS) capacity (68.8 mg AA eq./g), ABTS % inhibition rate (98.0%), free radical scavenging (DPPH) (53.1 mg AA eq./g), and DPPH % inhibition (79.6%) amounts were determined in antioxidant capacities of the samples. The bioactive component contents of the samples were total antioxidant amounts (TAC) (32.8 mg GA/g), total flavonoid substance amounts (TFC) (73.8 mg QE eq./g), and total phenolic substance amounts (TPC) (41.4 mg GA eq./g). The results of the antimicrobial activity analysis of R. coriaria fruit samples showed antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Listeria monocytogenes microorganisms. The amount of vitamin C and enzyme inhibitor activity in the fruits of R. coriaria were determined as 35.5 mg/100 g and 0.07 mg/mL, respectively.

    Chemical Content of Volatile Oil of Primula veris subsp. columnae, Obtaining the Methanol Extracts and their Biological Activities

    Karapınar, Çağrı; Öz, Mehmet

    The proportions and constituents of the essential oils of flowers and leaves of Primula veris subsp. columnae were determined, and the antioxidant and the antimicrobial (antibacterial and antifungal) properties of their methanol extracts were investigated. Percentage ratios and main components of the Primula veris subsp. columnae plant, which grows naturally, were detected by extracting flower and leaf volatile oils. The components of the volatile oil were identified with Gas Chromatography Mass Detector-Flame Ionization Detector (GC-MS/FID). A total of 62 compounds were identified in flower volatile oil, and methyl 4methoxysalicylate (37.1%) was determined as the main compound. While defining the structure of 50 compounds in leaf essential oil, linoleic acid (40.1%) was established as the main compound. As the result of the extraction of flowers and leaves with methanol, the extractive substance was obtained as 34.5% in flowers and as 28.8% in leaves. Methanol extraction and the antioxidant properties of the Primula veris subsp. columnae plant were quite high. In the antifungal and antibacterial activity test conducted on the volatile oils and methanol extracts of flowers and leaves of the Primula veris subsp. columnae species, only flower volatile oil showed weak inhibition properties.

    Chemical Content and Antimicrobial Activities of Essential Oils Obtained from Plant Parts of Juniperus excelsa M. Bieb.; [Kemijski sastav i antimikrobno djelovanje eteričnih ulja dobivenih iz dijelova biljke Juniperus excelsa M. Bieb.]

    Saruhan, Emrah; Öz, Mehmet

    This study was conducted to determine the chemical content, antibacterial, and antifungal properties of essential oil obtained from the parts of the plant called Juniperus excelsa M. Bieb. In this study, essential oils of cone, needle, and twig of J. excelsa plant, which is a naturally grown plant in Gümüşhane province, were obtained by hydrodistillation method in a Clevenger type device. Chemical composition of essential oils was determined thanks to the analysis conducted with GC-MS/FID device. Besides, antimicrobial activity tests of essential oils were decided in contrast to 23 different microorganisms with the disc diffusion method. As a result of the essential oil analysis of J. excelsa, the percentage of essential oil yield in cones, needles, and twigs was found as 5.88 %, 2.00 %, and 0.62 %, respectively. α-pinene was confirmed to be the most abundant main compound found in the essential oils of cones, needles, and twigs. As a result of the essential oil analysis of the cone, needle, and twig of J. excelsa species, it was revealed that monoterpenes were the most abundant chemical class in terms of percentage. In the antimicrobial activity test performed on the essential oils of J. excelsa plant parts, it was found that cones, needles, and twigs have a strong antimicrobial effect against Bacillus subtilis, Enterococcus faecalis, Escherichia coli, Escherichia coli O157:H7, Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella enteritidis, Salmonella typhimurium, Staphylococcus aureus, Candida albicans, Penicillum expansum, Saccharomyces cerevisiae bacteria, yeast, and molds.

    Gumushane region in Turkey is rich in plant diversity. The flowers and leaves of Pyrus elaeagnifolia Pall. plants that will form the basis of this research were collected from the places determined. In this study; the essential oils of flowers and leaves of P. elaeagnifolia plants were obtained by hydrodistillation method in a Clevenger type device. The chemical composition of volatile oils diluted with hexane were determined by analyzing with a GC-MS/FID instrument. The quantity of antioxidant activity of the obtained essential oils was determined by total phenolic content, free radical scavenging amounts, total flavonoid content, total antioxidant content, free radical scavenging capacity and ferric reducing antioxidant power capacity according to methods. Antimicrobial activity of essential oils was determined against 23 different microorganisms by disc diffusion method. As a result; essential oil yields in percentage are 0.44% and 0.72% in the flowers and leaves of the P. elaeagnifolia. Chemical classes with the highest percentage of compounds in essential oils of plant parts: Hydrocarbons (79.77%) and aldehydes (33.31%) were detected in the flowers and leaves of the P. elaeagnifolia. In addition, the main components found in essential oils are tricosane (36.98%-15.89%) in the flowers and leaves of the P. elaeagnifolia. The determination of antioxidant activity obtained from samples collected from plant parts was determined total phenolic substance amounts in the range of 48.57-68.32 mg GAE/100 mL, free radical scavenging amounts between 9.52-40.95 mg AA/100 mL, flavonoid substance amounts in the range of 1.34-3.95 mg QE/100 mL, total antioxidant amounts in the range of 66.93-185.10 mg AA/100 mL, free radical scavenging capacity between 23.40-81.02 mg AA/100 mL and FRAP capacity in the range of 4.20-10.50 mg FeSO4/100 mL. According to the results obtained with total phenolic content, free radical scavenging amounts, total flavonoid content, total antioxidant content, free radical scavenging capacity and ferric reducing antioxidant power capacity was determined the highest antioxidant properties in leaves of P. elaeagnifolia. According to the results of the antimicrobial activities analysis obtained from the collected samples of plant parts, it was determined that only the flowers of P. elaeagnifolia show antimicrobial activity against the microorganisms used.
