Hazelnuts were lye peeled and the peeling time (2-12 min), temperature (63-97degreesC) and NaOH concentration (40-140 g NaOH kg(-1) peeling solution) effects on peeling and quality were investigated. Increases in both temperature and concentration of lye solution led to a decrease in peeling time. Moisture content of samples were changed significantly (P<0.05) after the peeling process due to absorption of water. Peeling affected oil and fatty acid contents, peroxide number and colour of the hazelnuts when compared to the untreated samples. By considering the change in quality parameters, the peeling process was optimized using response surface methodology. In optimization studies, the amount of residual NaOH and penetration depth in hazelnuts were also considered. Time was found to be the most significant factor affecting responses. A suitable lye peeling condition was determined as 58.5 g NaOH kg(-1) peeling solution, 94.9degreesC and 2.9 min peeling time. This combination resulted in peeling >98%, 0.45 mm penetration depth, 7.1 g titratable NaOH kg(-1) and a Hunter-L value of 52.93. The quality parameters of peeled hazelnuts at this given combination, such as protein, oil, free fatty acid, ash contents, peroxide number and L values showed no significant change if compared with untreated control samples.

EFFECTS OF SEMPERFRESH(TM) AND JOHNFRESH(TM) FRUIT COATINGS ON POSTSTORAGE QUALITY OF ANKARA PEARS
Şümnü, Servet Gülüm (Wiley, 1994-08-01)
Pears were coated with different concentrations of Semperfresh or with Johnfresh edible coatings after storage for five months at 0C to determine the effects of coatings on poststorage quality. Coating levels were effective for extending the poststorage life and delaying ripening. Both Semperfresh and Johnfresh treated pears had better color, firmness, ascorbic acid, titratable acidity, soluble solid retention than control pears. Although Semperfresh was effective for the reduction of respiration and weight...
NONENZYMATIC BROWNING IN CLARIFIED APPLE JUICE AT HIGH-TEMPERATURES - A RESPONSE-SURFACE ANALYSIS
Bayındırlı, Alev; YENICERI, A (Wiley, 1995-06-01)
The effect of temperature and soluble solids on nonenzymatic browning in clarified and concentrated apple juice was analyzed by response surface methodology. Color development at 20, 40 and 60 Brix and temperatures ranging from 70-90C were compared over a time range of 30-180 min. The browning reaction was found to be dependent on soluble solid content as well as on the reaction conditions such as temperature and time. The model combines the effect of temperature, soluble solids content and time on color ch...
Inactivation of peroxidase and lipoxygenase in carrots, green beans, and green peas by combination of high hydrostatic pressure and mild heat treatment
AKYOL, Cagdas; Alpas, Hami; Bayındırlı, Alev (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2006-12-01)
The efficiency of high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) with the combination of mild heat treatment on peroxidase (POD) and lipoxygenase (LOX) inactivation in carrots, green beans, and green peas was investigated. In the first part of the study, the samples were pressurized under 250-450 MPa at 20-50 degrees C for 15-60 min. In the second part, two steps treatments were performed as water blanching at 40-70 degrees C for 15 and 30 min after pressurization at 250 MPa and 20 degrees C for 15-60 min. Carrot POD was ...
Spouted bed and microwave-assisted spouted bed drying of parboiled wheat
Kahyaoğlu, Leyla Nesrin; Şahin, Serpil; Şümnü, Servet Gülüm (Elsevier BV, 2012-04-01)
The effect of spouted Led and microwave-assisted spouted bed drying on drying rates of parboiled wheat was investigated. In addition, the effective moisture diffusivities of parboiled wheat were calculated. The drying experiments were performed using 200 g of parboiled wheat, at three different air temperatures (50, 70, 90 C) and at two different microwave powers (3.5 W/g (db), 7.5 W/g (db)). Microwave-assisted spouted bed drying at microwave power of 3.5 W/g and 7.5 W/g reduced dying time by at least 60% a...
Combined effect of high hydrostatic pressure treatment and hydrogen peroxide on Salmonella Enteritidis in liquid whole egg
Isiker, G; Gültekin, Güzin Candan; Bayındırlı, Alev (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2003-09-01)
The effects of high hydrostatic pressure treatment (HHP) of 250, 350, 450 MPa and hydrogen peroxide additions at different concentrations of 0.1, 0.5, 1% in liquid whole egg following high hydrostatic pressure treatment at 250 MPa at 20degreesC on Salmonella Enteritidis PT4 in liquid whole egg were investigated. At 20degreesC for 5 min treatment, 56.63 and 49.38% injury were determined for the treatment pressures of 250 and 350 MPa, respectively. Injury was not detected and total destruction of Salmonella E...
