    Ground Urfa isot peppers with high content of bioactive compounds and antioxidant activity
    (AGRIMEDIA GMBH, 2015) Kara, Meryem; Dinç, Saliha; Kahraman, Selma; Karıpçin, M. Zeki; Alp, İrem; Çiçekci, Hacer
    Urfa isot pepper is one of the most important spices in the diet of Turkish people; particularly of those in the Sanliurfa region. This is the first study reporting the bioactive compounds (beta-carotene, lycopene, ascorbic acid, phenolic compounds, capsaicin) and antioxidant activity of ground Urfa isot peppers produced both at homestads and factories. Factory-made red-blackish isot pepper showed the highest DPPH radical-scavenging activity, followed by homemade red-blackish isot pepper and homemade red isot pepper. FRAP values of all Urfa isot peppers were statistically in the same group. Homemade red isot pepper had the highest total phenolic content, lycopene and beta-carotene. The capsaicin content of ground Urfa isot peppers varied from 0.15-1.2 mg/g of pepper. The homemade red-blackish ground pepper had the highest ascorbic acid level. Phenolics of peppers were remarkable and higher than those reported in the literature. With their high number of phenolic constituents, as well as other bioactive compounds, ground Urfa isot peppers can be considered an important nutritional and functional food resource.

    High temperature-tolerant tomato lines: bioactive compounds
    (SPRINGER INTERNATIONAL PUBLISHING AG, 2016) Karıpçin, M. Zeki; Dinç, Saliha; Kara, Meryem; Kahraman, Selma; Alp, İrem; Çiçekci, Hacer
    High global temperatures will be a great challenge for agricultural production in the near future. Therefore, adaptation of agricultural crops to the high temperatures or development of new heat-tolerant crops with known bioactive compounds is an important strategy for nutritional health and crop improvement programs. In this context, the bioactive compounds of newly developed high temperature-tolerant tomato lines were investigated in terms of lycopene, beta-carotene, ascorbic acid and phenolic compounds to assist breeders for the selection of high temperature tolerant tomato varieties with high nutritional quality. Nineteen tomato lines, including control varieties from the "Turkey F1 Hybrid vegetable variety and quality line development" project and the GAP Agricultural Research Institute, were selected for the investigation. Line 11 was superior in lycopene and beta-carotene content, while line 18 was superior in ascorbic acid content as compared to control varieties Cansun F1 and Alsancak RN F1. Urfa 2012 and line 28 were found to have the highest numbers of phenolic compounds. Chlorogenic acid, naringenin, trans-ferulic acid and rutin were key phenolic compounds detected in each of the tomato lines. These newly released tomato lines can be used as value-added germplasm or parent sources to develop new heat-tolerant cultivars in breeding programs or as commercial cultivars for their superior functional qualities.
