In this study, characterization with 19 morphological criteria and two types of PCRbased molecular marker systems, Simple Sequence Repeats (SSRs, microsatellites) and Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphisims (AFLPs), were ...

The objective of this thesis is to improve blood compatibility of polysulfone (PSF) based hemodialysis membranes through generating thromboresistant and/or antioxidative surfaces with biomolecule immobilization. To create ...

In this study, an amperometric laccase biosensor was developed for determination of the oleuropein concentration that is the biological active component of olive leaf and contributes dominantly to the total antioxidant ...

Turkish chickpeas (4 cultivars) and lentils (6 cultivars) show similar total phenolic contents and free radical scavenging capacities in aqueous extracts ranging between 2869 and 4312 mg gallic acid equivalents/kg legume ...

In this study, the radical scavenging and iron chelating capacity of proteins from heat treated (20 min at 90 oC) or thermally processed (20 min at 121 oC) chick-peas andkidney-beans were compared. Lyophilized crude protein ...

Cancer is the most frequent reason of death in humans after heart disease. Most of the cancers are caused by mutations in tumor suppressor genes that play distinct roles in tumor formations. If a tumor suppressor gene is ...

Tomato is consumed in the daily diet and has a diverse nutritional content including antioxidants, lycopene, vitamin C and phenolics. However, the content of these compounds in tomato cultivars could be higher. There are ...
