  Quality Enhancement of Rhubarb (Rheum ribes L.) Jam by Ohmic Heating

  Özdede, Gizem Merve; Özakdağ, Işılay; Sevim, Esra; Karakavuk, Emrah; Sabancı, Serdal

  This study aims to comparatively investigate the production of jam from Rheum ribes L., a plant known for its functional properties, using both conventional and ohmic heating methods, and to evaluate the effects of these methods on quality parameters. Ohmic heating was applied at three different voltage gradients (25, 30, and 35 V/cm) and compared with conventional heating. In both methods, jam samples were produced until they reached a total soluble solids (TSS) content of 66%, after which total phenolic content (TPC), antioxidant activity, ascorbic acid (vitamin C), hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), and individual phenolic compounds were analyzed. According to the results, the highest TPC (488.37 mg gallic acid equivalent [GAE]/kg), antioxidant activity (595.6 mg ascorbic acid equivalent [AAE]/kg), and vitamin C content (23.6 ppm) were obtained at 35 V/cm. In contrast, the conventional method yielded significantly lower values for these parameters and a higher HMF content (29.9 ppm). Ohmic heating enabled a much shorter processing time, reducing energy consumption by approximately sixfold and contributing to better retention of nutritional components. Additionally, higher voltage gradients resulted in improved preservation of individual phenolic compounds (such as gallic acid, catechin, and rutin). The findings indicate that, compared to the conventional method, ohmic heating offers higher efficiency, better retention of bioactive compounds, and a more sustainable production approach due to its lower energy requirement.

  Effect of Ohmic Heating on the Quality and Nutrient Preservation of Plum Marmalade: A Comparison With Conventional Heating

  Ekici, Seymanur; Omac, Basri; Sabanci, Serdal

  In this study, plum marmalade was prepared using the ohmic heating method at three distinct voltage gradients (30, 35, and 40 V/cm). The quality properties of the marmalade prepared this way were contrasted with those prepared using the conventional heating method. Total phenolic content (TPC), antioxidant activity (AA), vitamin C content, total color change (ΔE), hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), and the amount of time needed for the process, including heating and evaporation, were all measured as part of the study. According to the findings, ohmic heating—specifically, a voltage gradient of 40 V/cm—significantly reduced the heating time when compared to the traditional method, which raised the stability of vitamin C, AA, and phenolic compounds. When ohmic heating was used instead of conventional heating, the amounts of TPC, AA, and vitamin C increased by 19.50%, 33.90%, and 149.12%, respectively. In comparison to traditional heating under atmospheric conditions, the results also showed that ohmic heating increased the amounts of gallic acid (40.61%), catechin (40.98%), chlorogenic acid (25.05%), and rutin (24.67%). Furthermore, the results showed that ohmic heating reduced the amount of HMF (34.34%) and ΔE (2.27%) in comparison to conventional heating. TPC, AA, vitamin C, gallic acid, catechin, chlorogenic acid, and rutin were higher than conventional heating; nevertheless, HMF and ΔE were lower than conventional heating at the applied ohmic heating process. The results obtained indicate a strong potential for an ohmic heating system as a rapid heating method for preserving nutritional value.

  Using Camelina Seed Mucilage as a Fat Replacer in the Production of Cookies and Its Effect on Physicochemical and Technological Properties

  Ozcan, Yasemin; Ozdemir-Orhan, Necla; Eroglu, Zeynep; Yilmaz, Merve Silanur

  In this study, for the first time, camelina (Camelina sativa (L.) Crtz.) seed mucilage (CM) was used as a fat substitute in a cookie formula, and the physicochemical, textural, and functional properties of mucilage-incorporated cookies were investigated. The moisture, protein, ash, fat, and carbohydrate content of the CM was 6.46% ± 0.35%, 17.44% ± 0.62%, 11.49% ± 0.39%, 1.27% ± 0.10%, and 63.16% ± 0.58%, respectively. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy identified acidic (–COOH) functional groups in the CM. Four distinct cookie samples were examined: The control-cookie, 20% CM-cookie, 40% CM-cookie, and 60% CM-cookie were prepared by replacing shortening with CM at 0%, 20%, 40%, and 60% levels, respectively. The mucilage-incorporated doughs were softer, springy, cohesive, and resilient compared to the control dough (p < 0.05). As for the cookies, the fat content of the 20% CM-cookie, 40% CM-cookie, and 60% CM-cookie samples decreased by 12.52%, 31.49%, and 50.12%, respectively, compared to the control-cookie. The control-cookie had the lowest baking loss (p < 0.05), and the baking loss values of the mucilage-incorporated cookies increased with increasing fat replacement level. The highest spread ratio was recorded in the 20% CM-cookie, followed by the control-cookie (p < 0.05). The highest hardness and brittleness values (70.68 ± 3.37 N and 11.52 ± 0.34 mm) belonged to the 60% CM-cookie, whereas the lowest (19.42 ± 1.42 N and 8.80 ± 0.26 mm) belonged to the control-cookie (p < 0.05). Incorporating mucilage into the cookie formula increased the total phenolic compound content but decreased the antioxidant activity. These results show that CM has potential utility as a fat substitute in cookie production without significant quality loss.

  Changes in quality characteristics and inactivation of Salmonella in cake, including oleogel used as a fat replacer, baked with two different methods

  Ozdemir-Orhan, Necla; Eroglu, Zeynep; Omac, Basri

  This is the first study to assess the impact of substitution of shortening (50%) with sunflower-beeswax oleogel in cake formulations on the inactivation kinetics of Salmonella spp. and the quality attributes of cakes baked in conventional (CO) and microwave (MWO) ovens. Four distinct cake samples were examined in the study: Cake samples containing oleogel prepared in two different ovens (Oleo-Cake-CO and Oleo-Cake-MWO) and control cake samples baked in two different ovens (Cont-Cake-CO and Cont-Cake-MWO). The control-batter and oleogel-batter demonstrated shear thinning behavior (pseudoplastic, n < 1), with a good fit to the Power Law model, but viscosity and viscoelastic moduli decreased when the oleogel was used in place of shortening in cake recipes. In addition, the Cont-Cake-MWO had the greatest special volume value (2.31 ± 0.04 mL/g), whereas the Oleo-Cake-CO had the lowest (1.65 ± 0.02 mL/g) (p < 0.05). Furthermore, compared to the samples baked with CO, lower water activity and moisture values (p < 0.05) were observed in the samples baked in MWO due to their higher cooking loss values (p < 0.05). In all baking techniques, the addition of oleogel to the cake formula, used as a fat substitute, resulted in higher values for cohesiveness, hardness, springiness, and chewiness (p < 0.05). As a result, the inactivation of Salmonella in cakes slightly reduced with using oleogel as a fat substitute (p > 0.05), whereas it affected some quality properties of cakes baked with both heat treatments.
