Characterization of three-phase partitioned exo-polygalacturonase from Aspergillus sojae with unique properties
(Elsevier, 2008-04)
Exo-polygalacturonase enzyme produced by Aspergillus sojae ATCC 20235 was purified using three-phase partitioning (TPP), an emerging bio-separation technique where a single step as compared to the classical multi-step ...
Identification and bioactivity of native strains of Bacillus thuringiensis from grain-related habitats in Turkey
(Elsevier, 2008-04)
A native collection of Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) strains originated from grain-related habitats in Turkey was characterized according to serotype, cry1 gene content, and bioactivity against Ephestia kuehniella (Lepidoptera: ...
Dilute-acid hydrolysis of apple, orange, apricot and peach pomaces as potential candidates for bioethanol production
(American Scientific Publishers, 2013-07)
Chemical composition of four selected fruit pomaces (agro-industrial wastes) was evaluated. The effect of temperature, time, acid concentration and solid:liquid (S:L) ratio on dilute-acid hydrolysis of selected pomaces ...
Antimicrobial activity of lactoperoxidase system incorporated into cross-linked alginate films
(Wiley, 2009-03)
In this study, the antimicrobial effect of lactoperoxidase (LPS) incorporated alginate films was investigated on Escherichia coli (NRRL B-3008), Listeria innocua (NRRL B-33314), and Pseudomonas fluorescens (NRRL B-253) in ...
Effects of controlled pepsin hydrolysis on antioxidant potential and fractional changes of chickpea proteins
(Elsevier, 2010-01)
This study investigated the effects of controlled pepsin hydrolysis on antioxidant potential and fractional changes of chickpea protein extracts (CPE). The enzyme hydrolysis increased soluble protein content (1.2 to 2-fold) ...
Surface energetics to assess biomass attachment onto hydrophobic interaction adsorbents in expanded beds
(Elsevier, 2009-01)
Cell-to-support interaction and cell-to-cell aggregation phenomena have been studied in a model system composed of intact yeast cells and Phenyl-Streamline adsorbents. Biomass components and beaded adsorbents were characterized ...
Water-soluble antioxidant potential of Turkish pepper cultivars
(American Society for Horticultural Science, 2008-06)
In this work, 29 pepper cultivars that represent the diversity of types and varieties grown in Turkey were analyzed for water-soluble antioxidant capacity and phenolic and vitamin C contents. In addition, 14 non-Turkish ...
Modeling of polygalacturonase enzyme activity and biomass production by aspergillus sojae ATCC 20235
(Springer, 2009-09)
Aspergillus sojae, which is used in the making of koji, a characteristic Japanese food, is a potential candidate for the production of polygalacturonase (PG) enzyme, which of a major industrial significance. In this study, ...
Comparison of fatty acid profiles and mid-infrared spectral data for classification of olive oils
(Wiley-VCH Verlag, 2010-02)
The composition of olive oils may vary depending on environmental and technological factors. Fatty acid profiles and Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy data in combination with chemometric methods were used ...
Water vapor and oxygen-barrier performance of corn-zein coated polypropylene films
(Elsevier, 2010-02)
A novel corn-zein coating structure on polypropylene (PP) films was developed to examine its feasibility as an alternative water vapor and oxygen-barrier for flexible packaging industry. The barrier properties of the ...
