Optimization of the associative growth of novel yoghurt cultures in the production of biomass, β-galactosidase and lactic acid using response surface methodology
(Elsevier, 2009-04)
The associative growth of Streptococcus thermophilus 95/2 (St 95/2) and Lactobacillus delbrueckii ssp. bulgaricus 77 (Lb 77) isolated from the Toros mountain region of Turkey was investigated with respect to lactic acid, ...
Effect of various process parameters on morphology, rheology, and polygalacturonase production by Aspergillus sojae in a batch bioreactor
(American Institute of Chemical Engineers, 2007-07)
The effects of pH, agitation speed, and dissolved oxygen tension (DOT), significant in common fungal fermentations, on the production of polygalacturonase (PG) enzyme and their relation to morphology and broth rheology ...
Optimization of a growth medium using a statistical approach for the production of an alkaline protease from a newly isolated Bacillus sp. L21
(Elsevier, 2006-03)
Bacillus sp. L21 was isolated from the by-products of a leather factory (located in Izmir, Turkey) working under extreme alkaline conditions. Its phenotypic and genotypic identifications were completed, and determined as ...
Optimization of osmotic dehydration of diced green peppers by response surface methodology
(Elsevier, 2008-12)
Osmotic dehydration of diced green peppers was optimized with respect to temperature (20-40 °C), time (15-600 min), salt (0-10 g/100 g) and sorbitol (0-10 g/100 g) concentrations through response surface methodology. Water ...
Homofermentative lactic acid bacteria of a traditional cheese, Comlek peyniri from Cappadocia region
(Cambridge University Press, 2005-02)
Comlek peyniri is a typical artisanal cheese in Central Anatolia. This type of cheese was made by using the indigenous lactic acid bacteria (LAB) flora of cow or ewes' milk. Majority of the samples were taken from fresh ...
Differentiation of mixtures of monovarietal olive oils by mid-infrared spectroscopy and chemometrics
(Wiley-VCH Verlag, 2007)
Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy in combination with chemometric techniques has become a useful tool for authenticity determination of extra-virgin olive oils. Spectroscopic analysis of monovarietal extra-virgin ...
Effects of hot rehydration in the presence of hydrogen peroxide on microbial quality, texture, color, and antioxidant activity of cold-stored intermediate-moisture sun-dried figs
(Institute of Food Technologists, 2005-04)
Pectin methylesterase (PME) causes considerable softening in intermediate-moisture (IM) figs rehydrated at 30°C and cold stored at 28% to 29% moisture content. Rehydration of figs at 80°C for 16 min inactivated PME partially ...
Alkaline protease production from alkalophilic Bacillus sp. isolated from natural habitats
(Elsevier, 2006-08)
Bacillus strains isolated under extreme alkaline conditions (Izmir, Turkey), were screened and identified for high alkaline protease activity. Strains with high protease yields were optimized with respect to inoculum ...
Classification of Turkish olive oils with respect to cultivar, geographic origin and harvest year, using fatty acid profile and mid-IR spectroscopy
(Springer, 2008-08)
Fatty acid composition and mid-infrared spectra of olive oils in combination with chemometric techniques were used in the classification of Turkish olive oils with respect to their varieties, growing location and harvest ...
Optimization of lactic acid production from whey by L casei NRRL B-441 immobilized in chitosan stabilized Ca-alginate beads
(Wiley, 2005-11-11)
The production of lactic acid from whey by Lactobacillus casei NRRL B-441 immobilized in chitosan-stabilized Ca-alginate beads was investigated. Higher lactic acid production and lower cell leakage were observed with ...
