The objective of the study was to investigate the effect of microfluidized onion skin addition on the features of expansion characteristics, water absorption index, water solubility index, color, texture and sensory of extruded products. In addition, addition of microfluidized and non – microfluidized onion skins to extruded products were compared. Increasing microfluidized onion skin content in the samples caused a reduction in sectional expansion index (SEI), volumetric expansion index (VEI) and porosity of extruded samples while causing an increase in bulk density of extruded samples. Increasing microfluidized onion skin content in the extrudates did not cause any significant change in water absorption index (WAI) and water solubility index (WSI) values. Addition of microfluidized onion skin to feed decreased lightness while increased redness and yellowness of extrudates. Addition of microfludizied onion skin increased maximum stress, hardness, and brittleness. After 2% microfluidized onion skin addition, lower scores were observed in sensory data of extrudates. SEI, VEI, porosity, bulk density, WAI, WSI, lightness values, maximum stress, hardness, fracturability and sensory data of extrudates with, microfluidized and nonmicrofluidized onion skin added samples at 6% indicated no significant difference. However, there was significant difference between microfluidized and nonmicrofluidized onion skins added samples in redness and yellowness values. The results indicate that microfluidized onion skins at low concentration can be added to feed samples to increase the fiber content of the extrudates.

Ortak, Melda; Şensoy, İlkay; Ögel, Zümrüt Begüm; Department of Food Engineering (2014)
In this study, effects of extrusion on the functional properties of carrot pulp added extrudates was investigated. Extrusion was performed at four different conditions. Two different temperature profile and two different screw speeds were investigated. Change in antioxidant activity, phenolic content, β-carotene and lutein content and their in-vitro bioaccessibilities after extrusion were investigated. Antioxidant activity and total phenolic content was determined by DPPH and Folin–Ciocalteu method, respect...
Effect of starvation on the adhesive properties of xenobiotic degrading bacteria
Sanin, SL; Sanin, Faika Dilek; Bryers, JD (Elsevier BV, 2003-01-31)
The purpose of this study was to observe the effects of different starvation conditions on the surface characteristics and adhesive properties of bacteria. Three pure culture xenobiotic degrading bacteria were used in this study: Pseudomonas sp. strain A, Pseudomonas sp. strain D and Rhodococcus corallinus strain 11. These microorganisms were selected for to their ability to degrade cyanuric acid, which is a derivative of s-Triazine, a common herbicide. These microorganisms were separately starved for carbo...
Effect of extrusion on bioactive compounds found in artichoke leaf powder and on their in vitro bioaccessibilities
Güven, Özge; Şensoy, İlkay; Şenyuva, Hamide Z.; Department of Food Engineering (2016)
The functional properties of extruded products can be enhanced by addition of herbal ingredients. In this study, artichoke leaf powder (ALP) was added to extrudates, at 3%, 6% and 9% concentrations, to increase amount of bioactive nutrients. Aim of the study was to investigate the effect of extrusion on functional components and in vitro bioaccessibility of selected phenolic compounds. Extrusion feed flow rate was 55 ± 1 g/min, screw speed was 250 rpm and barrel temperature zones were set at 80°C, 90°C, 130...

In this study, influence of limestone addition on radiative heat transfer during co-firing of high-sulfur content lignite with olive residue in the freeboard of 300 kW(t) Atmospheric Bubbling Fluidized Bed Combustor (ABFBC) is investigated by using an in-house developed radiation code based on Method of Lines (MOL) solution of Discrete Ordinates Method (DOM). The freeboard is treated as a 3D rectangular enclosure containing gray, absorbing, emitting gas with absorbing, emitting, anisotropically scattering p...
Effects of nanoclays on the flammability of polystyrene with triphenyl phosphate-based flame retardants
Kaynak, Cevdet (SAGE Publications, 2013-07-01)
The main purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of nanoclays on the flammability behavior of neat polystyrene and polystyrene compounded with traditional flame retardants triphenyl phosphate and its synergist melamine cyanurate. Nanocomposites were prepared via ultrasound-assisted solution intercalation technique. Dispersion and nanomorphology of nanoclays were investigated through X-ray diffraction analysis and transmission electron microscopy. Thermal stability and flammability behaviors were...
