Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 6Boosting Up Printability of Biomacromolecule Based Bio-Ink by Modulation of Hydrogen Bonding Pairs(Elsevier Ltd., 2020) Köksal, Büşra; Önbaş, Rabia; Başkurt, Mehmet; Şahin, Hasan; Arslan Yıldız, Ahu; Yıldız, Ümit HakanThis study describes low dose UV curable and bioprintable new bioink made of hydrogen bond donor-acceptor adaptor molecule 2-isocyanatoethyl methacrylate (NCO)modified gelatin (NCO-Gel). Our theoretical calculations demonstrate that insertion of 2-isocyanatoethyl methacrylate doubles the interaction energy (500 meV) between gelatin chains providing significant contribution in interchain condensation and self-organization as compared to methacrylic anhydride modified gelatin (GelMA). The NCO-Gel exhibits peak around 1720 cm?1 referring to bidentate hydrogen bonding between H-NCO and its counterpart O[dbnd]CN[sbnd]H. These strong interchain interactions drive chains to be packed and thereby facilitating UV crosslinking. The NCO-Gel is exhibiting a rapid, 10 s gelation process by the exposure of laser (3 W, 365 nm). The dynamic light scattering characterization also reveals that NCO-Gel has faster sol to gel transition as compared to GelMA depending on the UV curing time. The NCO-Gel was found to be more firm and mechanically strong that provides advantages in molding as well as bioprinting processes. Bioprinted NCO-Gel has shown sharp borders and stable 3D geometry as compared to GelMA ink under 10 s UV curing time. The cell viability tests confirm that NCO-Gel facilitates cell proliferation and supports cell viability. We foresee that NCO-Gel bioink formulation provides a promising opportunity when low dose UV curing and rapid printing are required. © 2020 Elsevier LtdArticle Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 4Lipid Bilayer on Wrinkled-Interfaced Graphene Field Effect Transistor(Elsevier Ltd., 2021) Özkendir İnanç, Dilce; Çelebi, Cem; Yıldız, Ümit HakanThis study describes lipid bilayer-based sensor interface on SiO2 encapsulated graphene field effect transistors (GFET). The SiO2 layer was utilized as a lipid compatible surface that drives bilayer formation. The two types of surface morphologies i) wrinkled morphology by thermal evaporation (TE) and ii) flat morphology by pulsed electron deposition (PED) were obtained. The sensing performance of wrinkled and flat interfaced-GFETs were investigated, pH sensitivity of wrinkled interfaced-GFETs were found to be ten fold larger than the flat ones. The enhanced sensitivity is attributed to thinning of the oxide layer by formation of wrinkles thereby facilitating electrostatic gating on graphene. We foresee that described wrinkled SiO2 interfaced-GFET holds promise as a cell membrane mimicking sensing platform for novel bioelectronic applications. © 2020Article Citation - WoS: 34Citation - Scopus: 36Biomimetic Hybrid Scaffold Consisting of Co-Electrospun Collagen and Pllcl for 3d Cell Culture(Elsevier Ltd., 2019) Türker, Esra; Yıldız, Ümit Hakan; Arslan Yıldız, AhuElectrospun collagen is commonly used as a scaffold in tissue engineering applications since it mimics the content and morphology of native extracellular matrix (ECM) well. This report describes "toxic solvent free" fabrication of electrospun hybrid scaffold consisting of Collagen (Col) and Poly(L-lactide-co-epsilon-caprolactone) (PLLCL) for three-dimensional (3D) cell culture. Biomimetic hybrid scaffold was fabricated via co-spinning approach where simultaneous electrospinning of PLLCL and Collagen was mediated by polymer sacrificing agent Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP). Acidified aqueous solution of PVP was used to solubilize collagen without using toxic solvents for electrospinning, and then PVP was readily removed by rinsing in water. Mechanical characterizations, protein adsorption, as well as biodegradation analysis have been conducted to investigate feasibility of biomimetic hybrid scaffold for 3D cell culture applications. Electrospun biomimetic hybrid scaffold, which has 3D-network structure with 300-450 nm fiber diameters, was found to be maximizing cell adhesion through assisting NIH 3T3 mouse fibroblast cells. 3D cell culture studies confirmed that presence of collagen in biomimetic hybrid scaffold have created a major impact on cell proliferation compared to conventional 2D systems on long-term, also cell viability increased with the increasing amount of collagen.

The ordinary filter paper with 6 μ m pore size were employed as solid support that facilitates impregnation of EuD4TEA and gold nanoparticles and provides durability. Detection mechanism relying on two processes (i) dissolution of gold nanoparticles causing fluorescence recovery and (ii) ligand exchange of triethyl amine with CN group stimulating cyanide specific fluorescence enhancement. The paper platform exhibit naked eye distinguishable color transition upon CN− addition from 10−2 to 10−12 M. To standardize the methodology a homemade image processing algorithm has been developed that enabling calibration of color change and quantify CN− concentration. The described algorithm is applicable to Android smart phones and facilitate transforming these devices into a quantitative cyanide detector. The overall methodology provides instrument free cyanide detection and therefore rapid control of water quality and safety at off-field conditions.Article Citation - WoS: 10Citation - Scopus: 12Tuning Pendant Groups of Polythiophene on Carbon Nanotubes for Vapour Classification(Elsevier Ltd., 2017) Tu, Meng-Che; Svm, Hari Krishna; Thilini, Alahakoon; Wallace, Lim Tse Loong; Moochhala, Shabbir; Yıldız, Ümit Hakan; Palaniappan, Al.; Liedberg, BoPoly(3-alkoxythiophene) (PT) with varying ratios of triethylamine and 1-methyl imidazole pendant groups and horizontally aligned single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) are utilized in this study for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) classification. PTs with five different ratios of pendant groups are incorporated with SWCNT and are evaluated as chemiresistor arrays for analysis of VOCs such as ethanol, acetone, toluene, chloroform, isoprene and ethylene. Varying PT pendant groups yielded differential SWCNT current responses attributed to their chemical affinities for the VOCs tested. Principal component analysis (PCA) for vapour classification illustrated that the vapour responses are separable, thus, highlighting vapour discrimination ability of SWCNT with controlled ratios of PT pendant groups. The proposed methodology is a facile VOC classification approach for two main reasons; (i) PT could easily modified with various pendants groups containing appropriate chemical moieties for preferential interaction with various VOCs and (ii) increasing the number PTs with appropriate pendant group modifications would provide additional inputs to PCA thereby enabling capturing and assaying of a wide range of VOCs.Article Citation - WoS: 19Citation - Scopus: 19Visual Detection of Al3+ Ions Using Conjugated Copolymer-Atp Supramolecular Complex(Elsevier Ltd., 2016) Tu, Meng-Che; Rajwar, Deepa; Ammanath, Gopal; Alagappan, Palaniappan; Yıldız, Ümit Hakan; Liedberg, BoA colorimetric Al3+ sensor based on fluorescence recovery of a conjugated copolymer-ATP complex is proposed. An optimized ratio of two polythiophene (PT) monomers is utilized to synthesize copolymer (CP) that yielded maximized colorimetric response for Al3+ in deionized (DI) and tap water. The electrostatic disassembly of CP-ATP upon addition of Al3+ led to an evident visual color change. The lowest concentration of Al3+ for naked eye observation is around 4 μM, which is below the threshold levels in drinking water according to European Economic Community (EEC) standard. Besides, the proposed assay showed a similar response to Al3+ in tap water. The proposed methodology showed selective and sensitive detection for Al3+ in analytically relevant concentration ranges without involving sophisticated instrumentation, illustrating the applicability for on-site drinking water monitoring.
