Extraction of phytochemicals from Scolymus hispanicus and determination of potential health effects
Ahmad, Bilal (Izmir Institute of Technology, 2017-12)Golden thistle (Scolymus hispanicus) is an edible medicinal plant growing in Turkey. It has been in use since decades for the treatment of various disorders by local folks. In the past the extracts from the root barks of ... -
Investigations on the effects of carbon sources and pH on exo-polygalacturonase productions by aspergillus sojae
Kuru, Gülten (Izmir Institute of Technology, 2013)Pectinases are a group of enzymes that are responsible for degredation of pectic substances. Pectinases are produced by many organisms including plants, bacteria and fungi. The aim of this study was to investigate the ... -
KRİTİK ALTI SU İLE FINDIK ATIKLARINDAN ANTİOKSİDAN BİLEŞİKLERİN EKSTRAKSİYONU
Sürek, Ece; Büyükkileci, Ali Oğuz (2018)Türkiye fındık üretim ve ihracatında dünya lideridir. Fındığın tarımı ve işlenmesi sırasında büyük miktarda kabuk, zuruf ve dal gibi atıklar açığa çıkmaktadır. Bu atıkların çevre dostu bir teknoloji ile işlenmesi ve önemli ... -
L(+)lactic acid production from whey by lactobacillus casei NRRL B-441
Büyükkileci, Ali Oğuz (Izmir Institute of Technology, 2000)Lactic acid, its derivatives and poly-lactic acid are widely used in the industry. Lactic acid has been produced chemically or by fermentation for many years. However, there is a need to develop low cost production and ... -
Polysaccharide based packaging film for fresh cut produce
Şamlı, Merve (Izmir Institute of Technology, 2017-02)In this thesis, agro industrial wastes such as bracts and leaves of artichoke were used to develop biodegradable packaging materials for fresh-cut artichokes. As flim forming materials; cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin and ... -
Prebiotic oligosaccharide production from hazelnut wastes
Sürek, Ece (Izmir Institute of Technology, 2017-07)Turkey is the world leader in hazelnut production and a large amount of wastes is produced during its harvesting and processing. Obtaining valuable products from hazelnut by-products can add value to those. In this study, ... -
Pretreatment methods for valorization of hazelnut pruning wastes
Doğru, Kevser (Izmir Institute of Technology, 2016-12)Turkey is the world leader in hazelnut production and a large amount of residues is produced during its harvesting and processing. So far, the residues of hazelnut production had no economic value and usually burned in the ... -
Production of xylooligosaccharides by autohydrolysis of hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.) shell
Sürek, Ece; Büyükkileci, Ali Oğuz (Elsevier, 2017-10)Hazelnut shell (HS), husk and pruning residues were characterized and evaluated for xylooligosaccharides (XOS) production by autohydrolysis. HS contained the highest amount of xylan and yielded more XOS compared to other ... -
