Article Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 11Electrospun Polyacrylonitrile (pan)/Polypyrrole (ppy) Nanofiber-Coated Quartz Crystal Microbalance for Sensing Volatile Organic Compounds(Springer, 2023) Yağmurcukardeş, Nesli; Yağmurcukardeş, Mehmet; Yağmurcukardeş, Mehmet; Çapan, İnci; Erdoğan, Matem; Çapan, Rifat; Açıkbaş, Yaser; 04.04. Department of Photonics; 04. Faculty of Science; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyIn this study, electrospun polyacrylonitrile (PAN)/polypyrrole (PPy) nanofibers (NFs) coated quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) were investigated for their sensing characteristics against six different volatile organic compounds (VOCs): chloroform, dichloromethane, carbon tetrachloride, benzene, toluene and xylene. SEM, TEM, FT-IR and TGA analysis were carried out for the characterization of PAN/PPy nanofibers and characterization results of PAN/PPy NFs showed that these nanofibers were morphologically well-arranged and straightforward with a cylindrical shape with the average fiber diameter of 253.17 +/- 27 nm. Among all the gas measurement tests, dichloromethane displayed the highest response values for PAN/PPy coated QCM sensors. When the reproducibility of kinetic studies for PAN/PPy NFs coated QCM sensors were examined, the most repetitive results were obtained by this QCM sensor during dichloromethane investigation and the diffusion coefficients of VOCs for the first and second regions increased with the order of xylene < toluene < benzene < carbontetrachloride < chloroform < dichloromethane. The sensitivities of the PAN/PPy nanofibers-coated QCM sensor against organic vapors are determined between 4.71 and 6.17 (Hz ppm(-1)) x 10(-4). As a result, PAN/PPy nanofibers exhibited high sensitivity and selectivity for VOCs sensor applications, especially for dichloromethane.Article Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 13Effect of Cnt Incorporation on Pan/Ppy Nanofibers Synthesized by Electrospinning Method(TÜBİTAK, 2020) İnce Yardımcı, Atike; Selamet, Yusuf; Tanoğlu, Metin; Tanoğlu, Metin; Yılmaz, Selahattin; Yılmaz, Selahattin; Selamet, Yusuf; 03.02.

Izmir Institute of TechnologyIn this study, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) added polyacrylonitrile/polypyrrole (PAN/PPy) electrospun nanofibers were produced. Average diameters of the nanofibers were measured as 268 and 153 nm for 10 and 25 wt% of PPy contents, respectively. A relatively higher strain to failure values (23.3%) were observed for the low PPy content. When as-grown CNTs (1 and 4 wt%) were added into the PAN/PPy blends, disordered nanofibers were observed to form within the microstructure. To improve the interfacial properties of CNTs/PAN/PPy composites, CNTs were functionalized with H2SO4/HNO3/HCl solution. The functionalized CNTs were well dispersed within the nanofibers and aligned along the direction of nanofibers. Therefore, beads formation on nanofibers decreased. The impedance of the nanofibers was found to decrease with the PPy content and CNT addition. These nanofibers had a great potential to be used as an electrochemical actuator or a tissue engineering scaffold.Article Citation - WoS: 34Citation - Scopus: 39Aptamer-Based Electrochemical Biosensing Strategy Toward Human Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Using Polyacrylonitrile/Polypyrrole Nanofibers(Springer, 2020) Kıvrak, Ezgi; Yılmaz, Selahattin; İnce Yardımcı, Atike; İlhan, Recep; Ballar Kırmızıbayrak, Petek; Yılmaz, Selahattin; Kara, Pınar; 03.02. Department of Chemical Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyIn the present study, a sensitive electrochemical aptamer-based biosensing strategy for human non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) detection was proposed using nanofiber-modified disposable pencil graphite electrodes (PGEs). The composite nanofiber was comprised of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) and polypyrrole (PPy) polymers, and fabrication of the nanofibers was accomplished using electrospinning process onto PGEs. Development of the nanofibers was confirmed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The high-affinity 5 '-aminohexyl-linked aptamer was immobilized onto a PAN/PPy composite nanofiber-modified sensor surface via covalent bonding strategy. After incubation with NSCLC living cells (A549 cell line) at 37.5 degrees C, the recognition between aptamer and target cells was monitored by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The selectivity of the aptasensor was evaluated using nonspecific human cervical cancer cells (HeLa) and a nonspecific aptamer sequence. The proposed electrochemical aptasensor showed high sensitivity toward A549 cells with a detection limit of 1.2 x 10(3)cells/mL. The results indicate that our label-free electrochemical aptasensor has great potential in the design of aptasensors for the diagnostics of other types of cancer cells with broad detection capability in clinical analysis.Article Citation - WoS: 25Citation - Scopus: 27Osteogenic Differentiation of Mesenchymal Stem Cells on Random and Aligned Pan/Ppy Nanofibrous Scaffolds(SAGE Publications, 2019) Meşe Özçivici, Gülistan; Selamet, Yusuf; Baskan, Öznur; Özçivici, Engin; Yılmaz, Selahattin; Özçivici, Engin; 03.01.

Faculty of Engineering; 04. Faculty of ScienceThe aim of this study was to develop random and aligned polyacrilonitrile (PAN)/polypyrrole (PPy) nanofibrous scaffolds by electrospinning technique for osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells. Nanofibers were fabricated successfully as straight, smooth, and free from bead formation. The average diameter of random and aligned nanofibers was 268(+/- 49) nm and 225(+/- 72) nm, respectively. Alignment process increased the tensile strength of nanofibers 3.9-fold, while the tensile strain of nanofibers decreased by 78%. PAN/PPy nanofibers were hydrophilic with the contact angle value of about 32 degrees and alignment did not affect the contact angle value. Random and aligned PAN/PPy nanofibers were investigated as a scaffold material for osteogenic differentiation of D1 ORL UVA mouse bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. Cells were able to attach and grow on nanofibers confirmed by cell viability results. Stem cells that were cultured with osteogenic induction were able to mineralize on electrospun nanofibers based on alizarin red and Von Kossa dye staining. For aligned PPy nanofibers, mineralization occurred in the fiber alignment direction. Consequently, PAN/PPy nanofibrous mats in both random and aligned forms would be potential candidates for bone tissue engineering.
