Kutlu, Naciye
In this study, celery roots were dried by the osmotic dehydration-assisted microwave drying method, and both osmotic dehydration (OD) and microwave conditions were optimized using response surface methodology (RSM). Utilizing a Box–Behnken experimental design, the drying time was minimized while maximizing the total phenolic compounds (TPC) in dried samples at different OD salt concentrations (10, 20 and 30 %), OD temperatures (30, 45 and 60 °C), OD durations (1, 2 and 3 h) and microwave powers (210, 350 and 490 W). The optimal drying conditions were identified as 15.05 % for OD salt concentration, 42.5 °C for OD temperature, 1.6 h for OD duration and 489.7 W for microwave power. Under these optimal conditions, the predicted values for time and TPC were 10 min and 104.38 mg GAE/100 g, respectively. The composite desirability value was 0.99 as a result of optimization. The experimental values for time and TPC were measured as 11 min and 97.45 mg GAE/100 g, respectively. The predicted and experimental values were found to be statistically similar to each other. A comparison with control groups designed to assess the effects of OD and microwave processes revealed that these processes significantly influenced both quality (TPC, antioxidant activity, color) and drying characteristics (drying time, rehydration rate). The greenness assessment value was calculated as 78 using the MoGAPI tool. Consequently, the application of OD pretreatment and use of the innovative microwave drying method as a final drying step in vegetable drying was successfully implemented to enhance the properties of the final product.

İncele - MakaleAçık Erişim2025Scopus SJRQ2Quantification of phenolics by LC-MS/MS of monofloral and polyfloral Honey: Evaluation of the greenness of the method with MoGAPI and MoGSA

This study evaluated the physicochemical properties, total phenolic content (TPC), total flavonoid content (TFC), antioxidant activity, proanthocyanidin content, and polyphenolic profiles of monofloral and multifloral honey samples produced in Türkiye. In addition, the greenness of the analytical method was assessed using two different evaluation tools: MoGSA and MoGAPI. The TPC and TFC values for multifloral honeys ranged from 0.18–0.65 mg GAE/g and 0.01–0.09 mg QE/g, respectively, whereas for monofloral honeys, these values ranged from 0.16–0.98 mg GAE/g and 0.01–0.37 mg QE/g. The highest CUPRAC and DPPH values were observed in Erica spp. honey, consistent with its TFC and total individual polyphenolic compound results. Notably, the Erica spp. honey sample exhibited a significantly higher gallic acid content (26.13 µg/g) compared to the other samples. These findings suggest that Erica spp. honey characterized by its high TPC, antioxidant activity, and distinctive polyphenolic profile, may serve as a notable dietary source of antioxidants. Additionally, the MoGAPI and MoGSA scores of the method were determined to be 84 and 91.67, respectively, demonstrating its high environmental sustainability.
