The monomer composition was glucose, showing that the EPS is a glucan type homopolysaccharide, The core structure of (1 -> 6)-linked alpha-D-glucose units including (1 -> 3)-linked alpha-D-glucose branches at a ratio of 93.4/6.6 was revealed by H-1 and C-13 NMR spectra and confirmed by FTIR analysis. The glucan showed a superior thermal stability with almost no degradation in structure up to 300 degrees C. XRD analysis revealed the amorphous structure while SEM analysis confirmed the layer-like morphology. The glucan had an antioxidant activity (89.5%), water-holding capacity (103.7%) and water solubility index (80.7%) values, suggesting that the glucan had a strong level of antioxidant properties; good water binding capacity and excellent solubility. The glucan PDER21 is a polysaccharide possessing a good combination of technical and functional attributes, suggesting a great deal of potential for use in the food industry.Öğe Biosynthesis of alternan-stabilized selenium nanoparticles: A study on characterization and applications for antibacterial and antifungal purposes(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2024) ElObeid, Tahra; Yilmaz, Mustafa Tahsin; Ispirli, Humeyra; Sagdic, Osman; Taylan, Osman; Basahel, Abdulrahman; Karaboga, DervisIn this study, the alternan/selenium nanoparticles (Alt/SeNPs) were characterized with respect to their formation, morphology, size, selenium distribution, molecular, crystallographic, and thermal properties using UV-Vis spectroscopy, SEM, TEM, EDAX, FTIR, XRD, DSC and TGA measurements. UV-VIS measurements confirmed the synthesis of nanoparticles by observing a maximum surface plasmon resonance peak at 212 nm. In this study, alternan contributed to stabilizing the dispersion of SeNPs, resulting in a cluster of spherical and well-dispersed nanoparticles ranging in size from 50 to 90 nanometers. Nanoparticles were found to be highly thermally stable and in a nanocrystalline structure. The ABTS and CUPRAC radical scavenging activities of Alt/SeNPs were remarkable (95% and 78% at 4 and 6 mg/mL levels of Alt/SeNPs, respectively). Alt/SeNPs had also good inhibitory activities (3.5-4.0 and 4-15 mm of inhibition zone levels at 5 mg/mL level of Alt/against foodborne pathogenic bacteria and fungi, respectively).Öğe Characterisation and functional roles of a highly branched dextran produced by a bee pollen isolate Leuconostoc mesenteroides BI-20(Elsevier, 2022) Yilmaz, Mustafa Tahsin; Ispirli, Humeyra; Taylan, Osman; Tasdemir, Volkan; Sagdic, Osman; Dertli, EnesLactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) from different niches can be responsible for the production of distinct exopoly-saccharides (EPS) that might possess important structural and technological features. In this respect, the aim of this study was to isolate an EPS producer LAB strain from bee pollen environment. Leuconostoc mesenteroides BI-20 with a slimy-mucoid colony morphology was identified from bee pollen and the structural, technological and functional characteristics of EPS produced by this strain were determined.

EPS monomeric composition of strain AP-27 was characterised by High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis and glucose was the only sugar in the EPS repeating unit. Structural analysis of glucan AP27 by H-1 and C-13 Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analysis demonstrated that this glucan was a dextran ((1-*6)-linked alpha-D-glucose units as the main body) consisting very low level of (1-* 4)-linked alpha-D-glucose units (similar to 0.5 %). Dextran AP-27 had a degradation temperature of 308 degrees C that revealed its superior thermal strength identified by Thermogravimetric (TGA) and Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis. The molecular weight of dextran AP-27 was determined to be 25 kDa by Gel Permeation Chromatography (GPC) analysis. Crystallographic properties of dextran AP-27 was determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis that divulged its amorphous feature. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) analysis was applied for microstructural characterisation of dextran AP-27 which revealed its regular sphere like characteristics. These findings suggest that Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) strains from different environments such as bee products can be the source for distinct EPS producer strains.Öğe Facile biomimetic synthesis of AgNPs using aqueous extract of Helichrysum arenarium: characterization and antimicrobial activity(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2022) Yilmaz, Mustafa Tahsin; Ispirli, Humeyra; Taylan, Osman; Balubaid, Mohammad; Dertli, EnesThe present study focuses on synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) by employment of a green and facile synthesis method. Aqueous extract of Helichrysum arenarium was used as a reducing and capping agent. The bioreduction of silver particles was monitored using UV-Vis spectroscopy based on increase in color intensity led by surface plasmon resonance. SEM, TEM, FTIR, DSC, and XRD analyses were followed for characterization, divulging that the nanoparticles were thermally resistant in the size of approximately 20 nm with a quasi-spherical shape without any agglomeration. AgNPs possessed a nanocrystal form with presence of crystalline Ag. EDAX analysis was used to verify that the nanoparticles were silver as revealed by a typical optical absorption peak of metallic silver nanocrystallites.

The synthesized SeNPs were characterized using measurements of UV-Vis spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy disperse analysis of X rays (EDAX), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffractometer (XRD) and differential scanning analysis (DSC). Synthesis of nanoparticles was confirmed by observing a peak at 212 nm in UV-VIS, indicating the surface plasmon resonance of SeNPs. Tarragon extract enabled a stable dispersion of SeNPs, giving rise to formation of the nanoparticles in the shape of quasi-spheres without clustering with the sizes between 20 and 50 nm. The SeNPs were shown to be in the form of nanocrystals, having Se embedded in the nanostructure with high thermal stability (a high resistance to thermal process over 200 degrees C). The SeNPs synthesized with tarragon extract could remarkably increase the inhibition zones from approximately 13 to 18 mm against the pathogenic bacteria and from 10 to 14 mm, 17-36 mm, 8-12 mm, 15-24.5 mm and 9-14 mm, against A. alternata, A. niger, A. parasiticus, B. cinerea, F. oxysporum and P. chrysogenum, respectively.Öğe An integrated neural-fuzzy methodology for characterisation and modelling of exopolysaccharide (EPS) production levels of Leuconostoc mesenteroides DL1(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2020) Kabli, Mohammad; Yilmaz, Mustafa Tahsin; Taylan, Osman; Kaya, Yasemin; Ispirli, Humeyra; Basahel, Abdulrahman; Sagdic, OsmanOptimisation of exopolysaccharides (EPS) production in Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) is an important task as EPS production can be affected by different parameters. In this respect, this study aimed to characterise the structure of an EPS from Leuconstoc mesenteroides DL1 strain and to optimise the EPS production by determination of the effects of incubation time, sucrose concentration, incubation temperature and initial levan concentration (input parameters) using integrated ANNs (Artificial neural networks) and fuzzy modelling approaches. The characterisation of the EPS monomeric composition by HPLC analysis revealed that EPS DL1 was composed of glucose and fructose. The H-1 and C-13 NMR spectra of EPS DL1 also confirmed the glucan and fructan production. The effects of the input parameters on glucan and fructan production levels as output parameters by DL1 were optimised using neural network and fuzzy modelling tools. The fuzzy model was developed based on the recognition of basic elements of input-output parameters, and the power of ANNs used for system identification. A structural analysis was carried out to improve the flexibility of fuzzy model, and to design the unknown mappings of the input and output parameters more robustly. The parameters then were fine-tuned by qualitative reasoning to establish the relations of input output parameters using membership functions (MFs) and their intervals determination. A hybrid training algorithm was employed for parameter identification, MFs and their interval determination to obtain the fuzzy model. The model can predict the outcome parameters; glucan and fructan with high accuracy for the predetermined input parameters.Öğe MACHINE LEARNING APPLICATION FOR OPTIMIZING ASYMMETRICAL REDUCTION OF ACETOPHENONE EMPLOYING COMPLETE CELL OF LACTOBACILLUS SENMAIZUKE AS AN ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY APPROACH(Health & Environment Assoc, 2020) Taylan, Osman; Yilmaz, Mustafa Tahsin; Balubaid, Mohammed; Alamoudi, Rami; El-Obeid, Tahra; Dertli, Enes; Sahin, EnginRecently, optimization of the bioreduction reactions by optimization methodologies has gained special interest as these reactions are affected by several extrinsic factors that should be optimized for higher yields. An important example for these kinds of reactions is the complete cell implications for the bioreduction of prochiral ketones in which the culture parameters play crucial roles. Such biocatalysts provide environmentally friendly and clean methodology to perform reactions under mild conditions with high conversion rates. In the present work, at the first step the Lactobacillus senmaizuke was isolated from sourdough and the complete cell application of Lactobacillus senmaizuke for the bioreduction of acetophenone was optimized by an Artificial Neural networks (ANNs) to achieve the highest enantiomeric excess (EE, %).

Accordingly, The ANN was employed to correctly establish the enantiomeric excess values of the specimen with an average absolute error 0.080739 %.Öğe Optimization of asymmetric bioreduction conditions of 1-(thiophen-2-yl)ethanone by Weissella cibaria N9 using a desirability function-embedded face-centered optimization model(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2023) Bolubaid, Mohammed; Ozdemir, Akin; Dertli, Enes; Alamoudi, Mohammed; Taylan, Osman; Karaboga, Dervis; Yilmaz, Mustafa TahsinProchiral ketones can be effectively bio-reduced to chiral secondary alcohols by whole-cell biocatalysts, which are possible useful precursors to synthesize physiologically active chemicals and natural products. When whole-cell biocatalysts strains are used, bioreduction process can be influenced by various cultural factors, and it is vital to optimize these factors that affect selectivity, conversion rate, and yield. In this study, Weissella cibaria N9 was used as whole-cell biocatalyst for bioreduction of 1-(thiophen-2-yl)ethanone, and cultural design factors were optimized using a desirability function-embedded face-centered optimization model.

Next, desirability function-embedded face-centered optimization model revealed that a pH of 6.43, a temperature of 26.04 degrees C, an incubation period of 52.41 h, and an agitation speed of 150 rpm were the optimum levels and the estimated ee and cr responses were 99.31% and 98.16%, respectively. Importantly, the actual experimental ee and cr responses were similar to the estimated values indicating the capability of the offered desirability function-embedded face-centered optimization model when using the optimum cultural conditions.Öğe Optimization of asymmetric bioreduction conditions of 1-indanone by Leuconostoc mesenteroides N6 using a face-centered design-based multi-objective optimization model(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2024) Alamoudi, Mohammed; Ozdemir, Akin; Dertli, Enes; Bolubaid, Mohammed; Alidrisi, Hassan M.; Taylan, Osman; Yilmaz, Mustafa TahsinThere has been an increasing interest in biocatalysts over the past few decades in order to obtain high efficiency, high yield, and environmentally benign procedures aiming at the manufacture of pharmacologically relevant chemicals.

In this study, Leuconostoc mesenteroides N6 was used for the asymmetric bioreduction 1-indanone. And then, a novel and innovative face-centered design-based multi-objective optimization model was used to optimize experimental conditions. Also, the experimental design factors were defined as agitation speed, incubation period, pH, and temperature for optimization to acquire the maximum enantiomeric excess (ee) and conversion rate (cr) values. When using the face-centered design-based multi-objective optimization model, the optimum culture conditions corresponded to 96.34 and 99.42%, ee and cr responses, respectively, were pH = 5.87, incubation temperature = 35 degrees C, incubation period = 50.88 h, and agitation speed = 152.60 rpm. Notably, the validation experiment under the optimum model conditions confirmed the model results.

Following the monitoring of the reaction products by TLC analysis, the effects of reaction parameters in terms of enzyme concentration, sucrose/whey ratio and reaction temperature on final oligosaccharide yields (OY) were optimized by Response Surface Methodology (RSM). Results indicated that increment of enzyme concentration and reaction temperature decreased the OY in a particular reaction time whereas the OY increased with the increment of sucrose/whey ratio in the acceptor reactions of glucansucrase E81 with whey as the acceptor molecule. A low level of glucansucrase E81 concentration was sufficient to obtain the highest OY in the tested conditions. These findings demonstrated the importance of the optimisation of the reaction parameters for the acceptor reactions of the glucansucrases.Öğe Partial characterization of a levan type exopolysaccharide (EPS) produced by Leuconostoc mesenteroides showing immunostimulatory and antioxidant activities(Elsevier, 2019) Taylan, Osman; Yilmaz, Mustafa Tahsin; Dertli, EnesLeuconostoc mesenteroides S81 was isolated from traditional sourdough as an exopolysaccharide (EPS) producer strain. The monosaccharide composition of the EPS from strain S81 was characterized by HPLC analysis and only fructose was found in the repeating unit structure. The NMR spectroscopy analysis revealed that EPS was a levan type EPS as a beta-(2 -> 6)-linked fructan. The MR analysis further confirmed the presence of the furanoid rings in the EPS structure. The levan S81 showed high level of thermal stability determined by DSC and TGA analysis. The lyophilised levan S81 showed a sheet-like compact morphology and its aqueous solution formed spheroidal lumps with a compact structure detected by SEM and AFM analysis, respectively. Importantly the levan S81 showed a high level of immunomodulatory role, induced the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-4, and exhibited a strong antioxidant capacity with EC50 value 1.7 mg mL(-1) obtained by hydroxyl radical scavenging activity test under in vitro conditions. These findings reveal potential of levan S81 for technological purposes and as a potential natural immunomodulatory and antioxidant. (C) 2019 Elsevier B.V.
