Article Citation - WoS: 43Citation - Scopus: 48Effects of Germination on the Physicochemical and Nutritional Characteristics of Lentil and Its Utilization Potential in Cookie-Making(Springer, 2021-06-10) Oskaybas-Emlek, Betul; Ozbey, Ayse; Kahraman, KevserLentil is an alternative gluten-free source with high protein content. In our study, lentil seeds were germinated to enhance the functional and antioxidant properties of lentil. The raw and germinated lentil flour was obtained from lentil seed and used in cookie production. The germination affected the physicochemical, functional, chemical and morphological properties, and pasting behavior of lentil flour. The results indicated that germination caused positive effects on ash and protein content, total phenolic content (TPC), antioxidant properties, oil absorption capacity, and water solubility index. However, germination caused a decrease in the total dietary fiber and starch content due to the activation of the enzymes during germination. SEM images of the germinated lentil flour proved the degradation of starch. Lentil (raw and germinated) flour cookies and wheat flour cookies (Control) were evaluated in terms of physicochemical, TPC, antioxidant properties, textural properties, and in-vitro glycemic index (eGI) value. Germinated lentil flour cookie exhibited the lowest hardness, lightness, yellowness values, the highest TPC and antioxidant activity, and it had the same effect on eGI with control cookie. Overall results indicated that germination can be used as a natural, sustainable, and cost-effective way to improve the functional, and antioxidant properties of lentil. Germinated lentil flour cookie may be considered as a functional food due to high protein content and antioxidant properties.Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 5Development of Buckwheat Starch-Capric Acid Complex-Based Film: Process Optimization and Film Characterization(Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH, 2025-02-26) Koca, Esra; Kahraman, Kevser; Oskaybas-Emlek, Betul; Ozbey, Ayse; Aydemir, Levent YurdaerTo overcome the limitations of starch usage alone, the film formation ability of the buckwheat starch-capric acid complex (BS-CA) was optimized, and the films were characterized. Significant models were obtained for tensile strength (TS) and Young's modulus (YM) of BS-CA film (p < 0.0001). The glycerol/starch ratio, temperature, and their interactions were significant in the YM model (R-2 is 0.9851). The BS-CA film had a better water vapor barrier (0.463 +/- 0.02 g mm/m(2) h kPa), with lower water solubility (WS) (34.18 +/- 1.70%) and moisture content (MC) (16.87 +/- 0.09%) than the buckwheat starch (BS) film (p < 0.05). It had lower thickness (0.073 +/- 0.00 mm) and TS (0.624 +/- 0.04 MPa) but higher elasticity (114.60 +/- 3.12%). The non-covalent interactions were determined between BS and CA, since new peaks were not observed in the film's FTIR spectrum. BS-CA film had a typical V-type crystalline structure and had slightly lower decomposition temperatures than the BS film. Contact angle measurements (55.19 degrees +/- 1.7), and images of AFM topography and SEM showed that the BS-CA film surface was hydrophilic; height and average roughness values were 1014 and 276 nm, respectively, which were quite higher than those of BS film. The results reveal that starch modification with fatty acid is a promising way to develop starch-based films to be used in practical applications.
