The aim of this study was to optimize conditions of microwave-assisted pectin extraction from crab apple peels using the Box–Behnken experimental design. For this purpose, microwave-assisted pectin extraction was performed at different extraction time (3, 6, and 9 min), liquid/solid ratio (75, 100, and 125), and pH (1.5, 2.0, 2.5). The optimum conditions were selected as extraction time (7.77 min), liquid/solid ratio (77.53 mL/g), and pH/1.79). The response, obtained under optimum conditions was determined as 0.1128 ± 0.0137 g pectin/g crab apple peel. In addition, it was determined that the obtained pectin sample had an esterification degree of 79.14% and oil and water binding capacities of 8.5 ± 0.7 g oil/g pectin and 8.1 ± 1.5 g water/g pectin, respectively. It was determined that pectin emulsions showed higher stability at 1% pectin level. The possibilities of using pectin obtained under optimized conditions as a fat replacer in a model sausage system were investigated. Pectin was evaluated in the model sausage system at two different concentrations. With the increasing pectin concentration, the cooking loss value increased from 14 to 18%, while leakage decreased from 0.31% to 0.18%, showing a negative effect on cooking loss and a positive impact on the amount of leakage into the packaging. Pectin obtained from crab apple peel has the potential to be used for reducing fat content in sausage environment.

Şensoy, A.T.; Gökçe, H.S.
The remarkable increment in radioactivity risks of today's industrial world is required to the efficient design of shielding structures. In the present study, the optimal design parameters of barite concrete shields for providing the highest gamma radiation shielding capability were researched by using a hybrid technique of the Box-Behnken Design based response surface method and Particle Swarm Optimization. Barite aggregate fraction, water-to-cement ratio and cement content of the shields were limited as 0:100 (by weight), 0.30:0.70 (by weight) and 200:600 (kg/m3) in the optimization problem, respectively. The regression equation derived from the regression learning process presented an excellent correlation to define the XCOM linear attenuation coefficients. A nonlinear response surface fitted to the regression equation was used as the validation of the PSO results obtained from MATLAB. The results of this study have shown that the proposed method provides satisfactory predictions for the barite concrete radiation-shielding capability depending on the design parameters. In addition, it was found that the linear attenuation coefficient could be increased by 102% by the design of the best shield according to the poorest mixture.

Şensoy, Abdullah Tahir; İspirli, Hümeyra; Dertli, Enes
Glucansucrases (GTFs) catalyzes the synthesis of α-glucans from sucrose and oligosaccharides in the presence of an acceptor sugar by transferring glucosyl units to the acceptor molecule with different linkages. The acceptor reactions can be affected by several parameters and this study aimed to determine the optimal reaction parameters for the production of glucansucrase-based oligosaccharides using sucrose and maltose as the donor and acceptor sugars, respectively via a hybrid technique of Response Surface Method (RSM) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). The experimental design was performed using Central Composite Design and the tested parameters were enzyme concentration, acceptor:donor ratio and the reaction period. The optimization studies showed that enzyme concentration was the most effective parameter for the final oligosaccharides yields. The optimal values of the significant parameters determined for enzyme concentration and acceptor:donor ratio were 3.45 U and 0.62, respectively. Even the response surface plots for input parameters verified the PSO results, an experimental validation study was performed for the reverification. The experimental verification results obtained were also consistent with the PSO results. These findings will help our understanding in the role of different parameters for the production of oligosaccharides in the acceptor reactions of GTFs.
