Hyperspectral Imaging (HSI) has become a widely used nondestructive inspection method in Food Quality Assessment (FQA). In FQA studies, HSI is used to measure light reectance characteristics (spectra) of food products at different wavelengths. Obtained spectral characteristics of food products reveal detailed information such as freshness, suitability for consumption, potential diseases etc. In this study, development phases and features of METU - Spectral Signature Library of Food Products (METU SPEL) database based on U.S. Department of Agriculture - USDA National Nutrient Database for Standard Reference, Release 26 is described. The main objective of METU SPEL is to build a library that contains spectral characteristics of food products to assist researchers working on FQA with HSI.

Effect of high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) and high dynamic pressure (HDP) on stability and rheological properties of model oil-in-water emulsions
Bigikoçin, Erman; Alpas, Hami; Mert, Behiç; Department of Food Engineering (2010)
High pressure applications are alternatives to conventional methods in food processing. They provide interesting modifications in food structures which leads to new product formulations. The aim of this study is to identify the effects of two different treatments, high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) and high dynamic pressure (HDP) on stability and rheological properties of model oil-in-water emulsions. Microfluidization was selected among the HDP homogenization techniques. The performance of each process was an...
Microwave assisted extraction of phenolic compounds from tomato and sour cherry pomaces
Şimşek, Meriç; Şümnü, Servet Gülüm; Department of Food Engineering (2010)
The objective of this study was to compare microwave assisted extraction (MAE) and conventional extraction methods for the extraction of total phenolic compounds (TPC) from tomato and sour cherry pomace. Antiradical efficiency (AE) of the extracts and also the concentration of phenolic compounds were determined. In MAE, the effects of microwave power (400 and 700 W), solvent type (water, ethanol and ethanol-water mixture at 1:1 v/v), extraction time (8-20 min) and solvent to solid ratio (10, 20 and 30 ml/g)...
Development of human health risk-based Soil Quality Standards for Turkey: Conceptual framework
İpek, Meltem; Ünlü, Kahraman (2020-09-01)
Soil Quality Standards (SQSs) are considered as an important tool for management of contaminated sites. In order to manage adverse effects associated with soil contamination, risk-based SQSs are used worldwide. However, developing health risk-based SQSs is a challenging task. It involves comprehensive assessment of nationwide site characteristics (e.g. soil, hydrogeological, climatic properties), understanding of social behaviors that determine human exposure to soil pollutants (e.g. exposure scenarios and ...
Using the Theory of Planned Behavior to Examine Repeated Organic Food Purchasing: Evidence from an Online Survey
Özdemir, Özlem; Dinç Cavlak, Özge (2022-04-01)
This study investigated repeated organic food purchasing behavior among customers of a local farm. Differently from pre vious studies, which have mostly taken random individuals as their sample, this study had as its sample individuals who are already customers and who have purchased several times, or have at least demonstrated an intention to do so through mem bership. Therefore, by eliminating the motivational aspect of intention, the focus was on examining the intention-behavior gap. Specifically, ...
Use of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy for rapid comparative analysis of Bacillus and Micrococcus isolates
Garip, Sebnem; Gözen, Ayşe Gül; Severcan, FERİDE (Elsevier BV, 2009-04-15)
The identification of foodborne microorganisms and their endospores in food products are important for food safety. The present work compares Bacillus (Bacillas licheniformis, Bacillus circulans and Bacillus silbtilis) and Micrococcus (Micrococcus luteus) species with Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. Our results show that there are several characteristic peaks belonging to both the Micrococcus and Bacillus Species Which Call be used for the identification of these foodborne bacteria and their...
