The biogenic amine content of beers available in Turkey, both domestic production and imported products, was investigated. A total of 17 domestic and 13 imported beers were evaluated in terms of 8 different biogenic amines (histamine, tyramine, spermine, spermidine, 2-phenylethylamine, putrescine, tryptamine and cadaverine). HPLC methodology with pre-column derivatization and photodiode array detection after derivatization with dansyl chloride was used for quantification. In addition, the evolution of important amines such as histamine, tyramine, putrescine and cadaverine were investigated during different storage conditions by response surface methodology. The results indicated that both storage temperature and storage time were important factors affecting biogenic amine content. Histamine and putrescine increased during storage, but then decreased after reaching a maximum level after six weeks. With the biogenic amines tyramine and cadaverine, the amounts increased during the entire storage period. At higher storage temperatures, the formation of biogenic amines increased.

Analysis of demand and pricing policies in Turkey beer market
Özgüven, Cemhan; Güven, Yusuf Çağlar; Department of Industrial Engineering (2004)
The purpose of this work is to study the beer market in Turkey in respect of demand analysis and with a view to assess whether the marketing and in particular pricing policies adopted by industry players in the period 1997-2002 have been efficient. Of specific interest is the near duopolistic structure of the market and the question whether pricing policies followed during the period 1997-2002 have been determinant in the observed sales volumes. The investigation focuses first on the analysis of the determi...
BIOPROCESSING OF TURKISH LIGNITES BY STREPTOMYCES-SETONII 75-VI2
SENEL, IG; GURUZ, G; ORBEY, H (Informa UK Limited, 1993-01-01)
In this work biodegradation of some Turkish lignite coals by Streptomyces setonii 75 Vi2 in submerged batch cultures was investigated. The effects of coal type, particle size, preoxidation of coal by HNO3, and the starting pH of the microbial culture on solubilization were investigated. It was observed that coal samples that contain the highest amount of lignin solubilize most extensively. The smaller particle size coals solubilize more, and solubilization appears to occur at the external surface of the coa...
Bioconversion of Alkali Pretreated Hazelnut Shells to Fermentable Sugars for Generation of High Value Products
Uzuner, Sibel; Shivappa, Ratna Rani Sharma; Çekmecelioğlu, Deniz (2017-03-01)
Hazelnut shells are lignocellulosic by-products of hazelnut processing. As the shells are rich in cellulose and hemicellulose, they have high potential as a raw material for production of food enzymes, biofuel, and various chemicals (acetic acid, furfural and lignin degradation products) after bioprocessing. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of alkali pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis on production of fermentable sugars from hazelnut shells. The hazelnut shells were pretreated with...
Estimates of demand relationships for figs and figs products in Turkey
Eriten, Alper; Öcal, Nadir; Department of Economics (2005)
This dissertation measures the extent of relationship between production, processing and marketing channels of fig products in Turkey for the period 1971-2003. We first provide a detailed analysis of world and Turkish fig products market. We then estimate the own price and cross price elasticities of fig products in Turkey by using simultaneous systems. The results imply that the demand facing Turkish dried fig processors is inelastic. Moreover also the producer-level dried fig price elasticity has inelasti...
Enzymatic production of xylooligosaccharides from cotton stalks
Akpinar, Ozlem; Ak, Ozlem; Kavas, Aysegul; Bakir, Ufuk; Yılmaz, Levent (2007-07-11)
Xylooligosaccharide (XO) production was performed from xylan, which was obtained by alkali extraction from cotton stalk, a major agricultural waste in Turkey. Enzymatic hydrolysis was selected to prevent byproduct formation such as xylose and furfural. Xylan was hydrolyzed using a commercial xylanase preparation, and the effects of pH, temperature, hydrolysis period, and substrate and enzyme concentrations on the XO yield and degree of polymerization (DP) were investigated. Cotton stalk contains about 21% x...
