ÖZET: Fitokimyasallar, bitkilerde doğal olarak bulunan ve biyolojik olarak aktif olan kimyasal bileşiklerdir. Bitkilerde doğal bir savunma sistemi olarak görev yapmalarının yanı sıra renk, aroma ve tattan da sorumludurlar. Bugüne kadar 8000'den fazla fitokimyasal tanımlanmış ve fonksiyonları ve kaynaklarına göre farklı şekillerde sınıflandırılmıştır. En yaygın sınıflandırma; flavanoidler, fito-östrojenler, fitosteroller ve karotenoidler şeklinde olup, bunların da alt grupları bulunmaktadır. Fitokimyasallar, son yıllarda sağlık üzerindeki olumlu etkileri ve özellikle bazı kanser türleri ve kalp hastalıklarına karşı koruyucu olmalarıyla dikkat çekmektedir. Bu bileşiklerin sağlık açısından en önemli etkisi, vücutta serbest oksijen molekülleri ve serbest radikallerle reaksiyona giren antioksidanlar gibi işlev görmeleridir. Bu derleme çalışmasında, sofralık, kurutmalık, şaraplık ve şıralık olarak geniş bir yelpazede tüketilen üzümlerin fitokimyasal içerik yönünden incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır.
Olive (Olea europaea L.) is a significant crop especially in Mediterranean countries. In Turkey olives and olive oil have a major agricultural importance. Olives and olive oil have been used not only nutrient and as a flavor enhancer in Mediterranean dishes, but also a medicine because of having essential roles for human health. The pharmaceutical value and uses are related to biochemical content and compounds available. Mainly four chemical sources: mono-unsatured fatty acids, polyphenols, carotenoids and squalene are functional bioactives in olive oil particularly for pharmaceutical affects. The present study was designed to examine changes of squalene contents of olive oil gained Kilis Yağlık and Gemlik olive cultivars' fruits harvested in tree different time along the two years. Squalene content in olive oils varied according to harvest time, cultivar and cultivation year. Accordingly, the variety affected the squalene content, in Gemlik cultivar squalene was more than Kilis Yaglık cultivar. In terms of its cultivated year, in the high yield year, an increase in squalene content was observed. In olive oil, squalene content decreased first then increased by the fruit maturation.Therefore, harvest time effected biochemical content of oil by the fruit ripening stages.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
