    Development and Characterization of Starch-Fatty Acid Complexes Produced with Buckwheat Starch and Capric/Stearic Acid Using Different Reaction Conditions
    (Elsevier, 2025-12) Oskaybas-Emlek, Betul; Ozbey, Ayse; Aydemir, Levent Yurdaer; Kahraman, Kevser
    The aim of present study was to investigate the impact of reaction parameters on the complex formation between buckwheat starch and capric acid (B-Capric) or stearic acid (B-Stearic). The most effective parameters on complex formation indicator (Complex index (CI) value) were found as reaction temperature (60-90 degrees C) and pH (5-8). Additionally, the effect of these parameters on physicochemical, pasting, and in-vitro digestibility properties of complex samples were evaluated. XRD and FTIR was also used in characterize the complex samples. In general, increasing pH increased the CI values of B-Stearic samples while decreasing those of B-Capric samples. Syneresis of buckwheat starch increased after complexation while paste clarity and swelling power diminished. The pasting properties of native starch significantly changed after complex formation. The FTIR results showed that starch structure changed with complex formation. XRD revealed that buckwheat starch, having an A-type pattern, converted to V-type pattern after complexation. Complex formation of buckwheat starch with capric and stearic acid significantly increased the RS content of buckwheat starch (19.01 %) by up to 36.25 % and 30.60 %, respectively. These results highlight the possibility of using buckwheat starch-capric acid/stearic acid complexes in food formulation to enhance the RS content.

    Green Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles From Pomegranate Peel and Their Application in PVA-Based Nanofibers for Coating Minced Meat
    (Nature Portfolio, 2025-05-16) Gencag, Burcu Sari; Kahraman, Kevser; Ekici, Lutfiye; Sari Gencag, Burcu
    In this study, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were synthesized via a green method from pomegranate peel extract and incorporated into polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) to produce AgPVA nanofibers through electrospinning. Nanofibers containing different silver concentrations (0.5, 1, and 1.5% Ag) were used as coating materials to coat minced meat, and their effects on various quality parameters during storage at 4 degrees C were evaluated. FTIR, XRD, SEM, and antibacterial analyses were conducted for the characterization of AgNPs and AgPVA nanofibers. To assess the quality characteristics of the minced meat during storage, pH, color, peroxide, TBARS, and microbiological analyses were performed. The results indicated that silver concentrations up to 1% could delay oxidation in minced meat and help preserve its quality. Compared with the other samples, the samples coated with 0.5% AgPVA (A1) and 1.0% AgPVA (A2) nanofibers exhibited a significant antimicrobial effect at the 6-day storage point (p < 0.05). The migration of AgNPs into minced meat was monitored during storage, and all migration values remained below the European food safety authority (EFSA) safety limit of 0.05 mg/kg, demonstrating the safety of the coatings. These findings suggest that AgPVA nanofibers synthesized via a green method could be a promising approach for extending the shelf life of perishable foods by reducing spoilage.
