Turkish sour cherries are highly esteemed for their high quality juice (called “nectar”). The objective of this thesis was to investigate the effects of industrial-scale processing of sour cherry fruit into nectar on the composition of the end product and bioavailability, paying specific attention to the phenolic antioxidant, particularly anthocyanins. I hope this research will contribute to the limited literature on sour cherry and its health promoting bioactive components. First of all, I would like to express my special thanks and gratitude to my supervisor and mentor, Prof. Dr. Dilek BOYACIOĞLU who taught me the academic life, constituted and shaped my scientific vision, encouraged me in several ways to further improve myself, and supervised me to carry out this study. I also would like to thank Prof. Dr. Beraat ÖZÇELİK and Prof. Dr. Reşat APAK with whom it was a pleasure to work with and I do appreciate for their valuable contributions. This thesis is a product of an intensive multi-disciplinary study which was carried out in PRI (Plant Research International), The Netherlands and FBR (Food and Biobased Research), The Netherlands. This study was included in and supported by EU 7th Frame ATHENA Project (12 months) and was also sponsored by Istanbul Technical University (3 months). I would also like to thank TUBITAK (The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey) which provided a financial support with a PhD scholarship (5 years). It is my privilege to express my special thanks and sincere appreciations to Dr. Jules BEEKWILDER, Dr. Ric DE VOS, Dr. Robert HALL, Dr. Victoria GOMEZ ROLDAN, Dr. Ingrid VAN DER MEER, Mr. Harry JONKER, and Mr. Bert SCHIPPER from PRI who had a great participation and contribution to my dissertation. I also would like to thank Dr. Jurriaan MES and Mrs. Monic Tomassen with whom I had the chance to work with Caco-2 cells and learn this technique in detail. I also would like to express my gratitude to Aroma Bursa Fruit Juice and Food Industry Inc. and specifically to Mr. Birol GÖÇTÜ for providing the samples from sour cherry nectar processing. I express my gratitude and acknowledge to Assis. Prof. Esra ÇAPANOĞLU GÜVEN who not only helped to shape my dissertation, bu also contributed to it in various ways. I also would like to express my special thanks and acknowledge to Senem KAMİLOĞLU who contributed to my work in various ways. I would like to thank Zeynep TACER CABA, Sezen SÜZME, Nalan DEMİR, Yusuf ŞEN, and all my friends who helped and encouraged me during this long time of study. Finally, a very special note of appreciation and thanks to my mother Nejla, my father Hasan, and my brother Murat for their love, patience, help and support throughout my life and education. I would like to give this thesis as a gift to my family.

In plants, as in animals, melatonin is believed to function as a free radical scavenger and possibly in photoperiodism. In this study, melatonin was detected and quantified in fresh- frozen Balaton and Montmorency tart cherries (Prunus cerasus) using high-performance liquid chromatography. Both cherry species contain high levels of melatonin compared to the melatonin concentrations in the blood of mammals. Montmorency cherries (13.46 ( 1.10 ng/g) contain ∼6 times more melatonin than do Balaton cherries (2.06 ( 0.17 ng/g). Neither the orchard of origin nor the time of harvest influenced the amount of melatonin in fresh cherries. The implication of the current findings is that consuming cherries could be an important source of dietary melatonin inasmuch as melatonin is readily absorbed when taken orally. Also, previously published data and the results presented here show that melatonin is not only endogenously produced but also present in the diet. Keywords: Melatonin; fruit; Prunus cerasus; Balaton cherry; Montmorency cherry; antioxidant INTRODUCTION ates including the hydroxyl radical (•OH), the peroxy- - 1 nitrite anion (ONOO ), singlet oxygen ( O2), and nitric Epidemiological studies indicate that constituents in • oxide (NO )(12, 13).

    EFFECT OF PROCESSING ON QUALITY AND SAFETY OF CHERRY JUICE AND ITS BY-PRODUCTS A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science by Belen Maria Vila August 2017 © 2017 Belen Maria Vila ABSTRACT Cyanogenic Glycosides (CG) are compounds capable of producing hydrogen cyanide. Processed pits are potential saleable by-products if CG are removed. We evaluated the effect of processing on cherry juice and its by-products by measuring CG and quality attributes. After analysis by HPLC and 1H-NMR, amygdalin was detected in kernels (13.6-23.0 mg/g), in flesh (0.07-0.09 mg/g) and in processed juice (0.06 mg/g). A significant reduction was observed in kernels after juicing (3.3 mg/g) and after 90 minutes of additional heat/acid treatment. Cherry pit oils were also extracted by expeller pressing yielding 2.9-4.4% and presenting comparable quality attributes but different aroma perception. No amygdalin was detected. After 12 weeks, sensory and quality parameters remained relatively stable. Melatonin was also determined by 1H-NMR in different matrices. Quantification was effective between 1-100 ppm for aqueous solutions and supplements. No melatonin was detected in cherry products which may be associated with the detection limit. iii BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH Belen was raised in Buenos Aires, Argentina. She was born celiac and since very young she has observed her mother trying to develop tasty and safe gluten free products for her. She grew up understanding the limitations of this disease and she naturally developed passion for food science.
