Sumac (Rhus coriaria) cultivated mainly in the Mediterranean region, Eastern and Western North America, South Africa, and Asia is rich in phenolic compounds, especially tannins, anthocyanins, and flavones. For this reason, the sumac extract has the potential to be incorporated in the films that could be used as active packaging material. For that purpose, this study aimed to develop the best biodegradable and eco-friendly active food package made from faba bean flour and sumac extract. To evaluate the films, the physical (moisture content, solubility, water vapor permeability, mechanic, opacity, and color), antioxidant, and antimicrobial properties and the chemical and thermal characteristic of films were investigated. While sumac incorporation decreased the water vapor permeability (WVP) of films, the opacity, tensile strength, and elongation at break of films increased. The potential radical scavenging activities of the films were tested with two different methods (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2MODIFIER LETTER PRIME-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS)), and the results proved the films' enhanced antioxidant activity, especially the highest sumac concentrations. The addition of sumac extract also increased the thermal stability of the films. Antimicrobial activity of the films was also tested on Gram (-) Escherichia coli (ATCC 11229), and Gram ( +) Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 43300) bacterial cultures, and the film with the highest sumac concentration (FB_S_4) had inhibitory activity on S. aureus showing 26-mm clear zone. To illustrate the effect of active packaging on real food systems, the chicken breast was packaged with FB_S_4 film at refrigerator storage (4 degrees C). Although chicken meat packed with faba bean film without sumac extract (FB) spoiled within 3 days, chicken packed in FB_S_4 film exceeded the microbial threshold at the end of day 7. Therefore, sumac extract-incorporated films can be suggested as a potential food package to extend the shelf life of perishable foods.

Antioxidant, antimicrobial activity and phytochemical analysis of Pistacia Vera L. skin
Şermet, Muhammed Ömer; Bozoğlu, Faruk; Sağdıçoğlu Celep, A. Gülçin; Department of Biochemistry (2015)
Pistacia vera L. commonly grows in Mediterranean region, mainly in the Southeast of Turkey. Traditionally it is used for the treatment of several diseases such as asthma, rheumatism and hypertension. Pistachios are very rich sources of phenolic compounds however the skins are excluded from the nut as waste. This study was designed to investigate the antioxidant and antimicrobial effects of P. vera skin and to evaluate its phenolic compounds. P. vera skin extracts were prepared in different solvents and meth...
Caesium-137 and Caesium-134 levels in soil in a tea plantation in Turkey after the chernobyl accident
Yeşin, T.; Çakır, N. (Elsevier BV, 1989-1)
Gamma-ray scintillation spectrometry has been used to measure the 137Cs and 134Cs levels and depth distributions in soil of a tea plantation in the Eastern Black Sea region in Turkey. Soil samples were collected in November 1987. The depth distribution was found to be exponential with α = 0.16 cm−1 and the exposure rate arising therefrom is calculated as 17.46 μR/h over the ground surface.
Characterization and Comparison of Turkish Table Olive Varieties With NMR Relaxometry and Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Kilercioğlu, Mete; Özel, Barış; Öztop, Halil Mecit (2016-01-01)
Olive is one of the fruits that is mostly consumed in the Mediterranean region. Depending on the variety, oil quality of the olive changes significantly. In this study, Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), Relaxometry and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) experiments were used to characterize different Turkish table olive varieties, (Ayvalik, Mega, Sele, Light) in terms of tissue structure, fat and water contents. Moisture and fat content were measured using an infrared moisture analyzer and soxhlet extraction,...
Antioxidant Capacity and Cytotoxicity of Aesculus hippocastanum on Breast Cancer MCF-7 Cells

Aesculus hippocastanum L. is a native tree of Asia. Its leaves, seeds and flowers have long been used in folk medicine and in traditional food ingredients. In this study, the bark, seeds, leaves and flowers as aerial parts of A. hippocastanum were extracted in ethanol. The antioxidant capacity of each part was determined for its 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical (DPPH) scavenging capacity, microsomal lipid peroxidation inhibition capacity and total phenolic content. Among all the parts examined, the bar...
Genetic characterization of pear cultivars (Pyrus communis) in Çoruh river basin
Çoban, Abdulbaki; Kaya, Zeki; Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics (2019)
The genus Pyrus contains more than 20 different pear species which are used as food source, horticultural, and ornamental purposes. Overall, pear is the second most consumed pome fruit after apple. P. communis is the most cultivated pear species in Europe and Asia Minor. However, more than 10 species of genus Pyrus can be found naturally in Europe and Asia Minor. In this study, 8 P. communis populations (one wild and 7 cultivated) and 1 P. eleagnifolia population was used to reveal genetic structure of thos...
