Cevdet Demir
Cevdet Demir is a Professor of Analytical Chemistry at the Faculty of Science and Arts, Uludag University, Bursa, Turkey. He received his B.S. in Chemistry from Hacettepe University (Ankara-Turkey). In 1997, he received his PhD degree in Chemistry from Bristol University (UK) in the field of chromatography and chemometrics. His recent scientific interests are determination of phenolic compounds in foods and plants, and development of multivariate calibration methods for determination of antioxidant activity of phenolic compounds in plants. He has been focusing on development of novel enzymatic methods for determination of total phenol contents in plants and foods and developing new antioxidant activity measurement methods like CHROMAC antioxidant activity assay. Determination of phenolic acids, flavonoids and anthocyanins in plants and foods has been carried out by HPLC and LC-MS. Isolation of individual phenolic compounds and their growth-inhibiting effects on human cancer cells have been investigated. Ultrasensitive quantification of oxidative DNA damage products of a various cancer cell lines have been carried out using Gas Chromatography Tandem Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS/MS) and prevention effects of plant antioxidants have been investigated on the formation of oxidative DNA damage products.
