Abstract:

 Cherry laurel Prunus laurocerasus is an evergreen tree, approximately 5-6 meters tall, with small white flowers, belonging to the Rosaceae family, which is frequently found in the Black Sea region in Türkiye. It has fruits with conical hard seeds resembling cherries, in clusters like grapes, and in red to purplish black colors when ripe for eating. In Türkiye, the fruits, leaves and seeds of cherry laurel are used as a folk medicine for many ailments. This study aimed to determine some physicochemical properties weight, width, length, seed weight, moisture, ash, pH, protein, fat, glucose, fructose and dietary fiber of different types of cherry laurel fruits and seeds grown in Türkiye. Weight, width, length, moisture, ash, pH, protein, glucose, fructose and dietary fiber of different types 61K04 Trabzon, 14K02 Bolu, 28K13 Giresun, 08K02 Artvin cherry laurel fruits contents were determined as 3.0108-5.753 g; 15.107-20.813 mm; 17.179-19.884 mm; 65.267-75.712; 0.567-1.005; 3.820-4.260; 0.735-0.942; 9.077-12.155 g.100gˉ¹; 3.605-7.176 g.100gˉ¹ and 16.160-18.075 respectively. When the seeds of cherry laurel fruits are examined, the shell weight is 0.123-0,174 g, inner seed weight is 0.065-0.110 g, moisture is 4.020-6.301, ash is 2.722-4.173, pH is 5.415-5.730, protein is 17.693-26.051, fat 25.773-33.800, glucose 4.841-10.958 g.100 ˉ¹, fructose 0.584-2.581 g.100gˉ¹ and dietary fiber was found between 16.505-26.560. In line with these results; It has been determined that cherry laurel fruits and seeds have different basic nutritional properties depending on their type.

 Karayemiş Prunus laurocerasus Türkiyede Karadeniz bölgesinde sıklıkla rastlanan Rosaceae familyasına ait yapraklarını dökmeyen yaklaşık 5-6 metre boylarında küçük beyaz çiçekleri olan bir ağaçtır. Kiraza benzeyen konik sert çekirdekli, üzüm gibi salkım halinde, yeme olgunluğuna geldiğinde kırmızı ile morumsu siyah renklerinde meyveleri vardır. Türkiyede karayemişin meyveleri, yaprakları, çekirdekleri bir halk ilacı gibi pek çok rahatsızlıklarda kullanılmaktadır. Bu çalışma Türkiyede yetişen farklı tipteki karayemiş meyve ve çekirdeklerinin bazı fizikokimyasal özelliklerinin ağırlık, en, boy, çekirdek ağırlığı, nem, kül, pH, protein, yağ, glukoz, fruktoz ve diyet lifi belirlemesi amaçlanmıştır. Farklı tip 61K04 Trabzon, 14K02 Bolu, 28K13 Giresun, 08K02 Artvin karayemiş meyvelerinin ağırlık, en, boy, nem, kül, pH, protein, glukoz, fruktoz ve diyet lifi içerikleri sırasıyla 3,0108-5,753 gr; 15,107-20,813 mm; 17,179-19,884 mm; 65,267-75,712; 0,567-1,005; 3,820-4,260; 0,735-0,942; 9,077-12,155 g.100gˉ¹; 3,605-7,176 g.100gˉ¹ ve 16,160-18,075 olarak tespit edilmiştir. Karayemiş meyvelerinin çekirdekleri incelendiğinde kabuklu ağırlık 0,123-0,174 gr, çekirdek iç ağırlığı 0,065-0,110 gr, nem 4,020-6,301, kül 2,722-4,173, pH 5,415-5,730, protein 17,693-26,051, yağ 25,773-33,800, glukoz 4,841-10,958 g.100gˉ¹, fruktoz 0,584-2,581 g.100gˉ¹, ve diyet lifi 16,505-26,560 arasında tespit edilmiştir. Bu sonuçlar doğrultusunda; karayemiş meyve ve çekirdeklerinin tiplerine göre farklı temel besinsel özelliklere sahip olduğu belirlenmiştir.
