Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

The effects of dietary orange peel extract (OPE) supplementation on growth performance, carcass traits, serum biochemical parameters, antioxidant status of tissues, and fatty acid composition of breast meat in Japanese quails reared under low ambient temperature were investigated in the present study. A total of 108 quails of 15 days old were assigned to 3 groups with 3 replicates. Animals were fed with a corn/soy-based standard diet in the control group and a standard diet supplemented with either 100 or 200 ppm of OPE in the experimental groups (control, OPE-100, and OPE-200 groups, respectively). Room temperature was gradually lowered at …

Fatty Acid Composition, Oxidative Stability, And Antioxidant Properties Of Some Hungarian And Other Persian Walnut Cultivars, Geza Bujdoso, Éva Kónya, Mária Berki, Magdolna Nagy-Gasztonyi, Krisztina Bartha-Szügyi, Balázs Marton, Ferenc Izsépi, Nóra Adányi

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

Ten different Persian walnut cultivars were examined for their compositional data, including eight Hungarian and two introduced varieties. Oil content and fatty acid composition were determined, as well as oxidative stability (indicated by induction time). Antioxidative capacity, total polyphenol measurements, and individual phenolic compounds were also determined. Not only dry samples but fresh and stored samples were included in this study. Large differences were found among the varieties within these parameters, for example in oxidative stability, which contributes to antioxidative capacity. In conclusion, the nutritional value of Hungarian walnut cultivars was the same or even higher than those of foreign …


Bioactive And Antioxidant Characteristics Of Blackberry Cultivars From East Anatolia, Müttali̇p Gündoğdu, Tuncay Kan, İhsan Canan Jan 2016

Bioactive And Antioxidant Characteristics Of Blackberry Cultivars From East Anatolia, Müttali̇p Gündoğdu, Tuncay Kan, İhsan Canan

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

Blackberry is commonly used both in the fresh and the processing market. In the present study antioxidant capacity, organic acids, phenolic compounds, vitamin C, and sugars content of blackberry cultivars grown in the east of Turkey were determined. Phenolic compounds, organic acids, vitamin C, and sugars were determined by HPLC. Antioxidant capacity was determined by spectrophotometric methods. The cultivar Cherokee had the highest antioxidant capacity (48.900 μmol TE g-1), and the cultivar Jumbo had the lowest antioxidant capacity (30.855 μmol TE g-1). It was determined that the chief phenolic compounds in blackberry cultivars were catechin (ranging from 111.599 to 438.970 …


Determination Of Antioxidant, Total Phenolic, Total Carotenoid, Lycopene, Ascorbic Acid, And Sugar Contents Of Citrus Species And Mandarin Hybrids, İhsan Canan, Müttali̇p Gündoğdu, Ubeyi̇t Seday, Celi̇le Ayli̇n Oluk, Zafer Karaşahi̇n, Evren Çağlar Eroğlu, Ebru Yazici, Mustafa Ünlü Jan 2016

This study aimed to determine the antioxidant capacity; the total phenolic, total carotenoid, sugar, and ascorbic acid contents; and some pomological characteristics of Citrus species (Citrus reticulata, Citrus sinensis, and Citrus paradisi) and mandarin (Citrus reticulata) and their new hybrids developed for yield at the Alata Horticultural Research Institute in Mersin, Turkey. With respect to antioxidant capacities, the highest value (45.28 µmol TE/100 g) was determined in Cocktail (Citrus paradisi) cultivar fruits among all examined cultivars and hybrids. We found that 7-19 (Clementine x Kara) mandarin hybrids had the highest total phenolic content (386.81 mg gallic acid equivalent/g) and the …
