Conference Object Serum Creatinine Detection in a Microfluidic Chip Using a Smartphone Camera(Chemical and Biological Microsystems Society, 2022) Karakuzu, B.; Tarim, E.A.; Tekin, H.C.We present a microfluidic chip platform to detect serum creatinine levels using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) principle. In the platform, surface modified microfluidic channel sensitively captured target molecules from the serum sample, and then ELISA protocol was applied inside the channels. Afterward, the blue color formed as a result of the enzymatic reaction was measured via a smartphone camera. The proposed strategy allows the detection of creatinine rapidly in a minute amount of the serum samples without the need for expensive equipment. Thus, chronic kidney disease (CKD) could be monitored easily at point-of-care settings via the proposed creatinine detection strategy. © 2022 MicroTAS 2022 - 26th International Conference on Miniaturized Systems for Chemistry and Life Sciences.

Time-resolved experiments show that the fluorescence lifetime of perylene dye molecules is enhanced when the dye molecules are encapsulated in a three-dimensional photonic environment. It is hard to produce a sustainable host with exactly the same dimensions all the time during fabrication to accommodate dye molecules for enhancement of spontaneous emission rate. The electrospinning method allows us to have a control over fiber diameter. It is observed that the wavelength of monomer excitation of perylene dye molecules is too short to cause enhancement within nanofiber photonic environment of 330 nm diameters. However, when these nanofibers are doped with more concentrated perylene, in addition to monomer excitation, an excimer excitation is generated. This causes observation of the Purcell effect in the three-dimensional nanocylindrical photonic fiber geometry.Article Citation - WoS: 198Citation - Scopus: 210Physical and Chemical Interactions in Coal Flotation(Elsevier Ltd., 2003) Polat, Mehmet; Polat, Hürriyet; Chander, SubhashCoal flotation is a complex process involving several phases (particles, oil droplets and air bubbles). These phases simultaneously interact with each other and with other species such as the molecules of a promoting reagent and dissolved ions in water. The physical and chemical interactions determine the outcome of the flotation process. Physical and chemical interactions between fine coal particles could lead to aggregation, especially for high rank coals. Non-selective particle aggregation could be said to be the main reason for the selectivity problems in coal flotation. It should be addressed by physical (conditioning) or chemical (promoters) pretreatment before or during flotation. Although the interactions between the oil droplets and coal particles are actually favored, stabilization of the oil droplets by small amounts of fine hydrophobic particles may lead to a decrease in selectivity and an increase in oil consumption. These problems could be remedied by use of promoters that modify the coal surface for suitable particle-particle, droplet-particle and particle-bubble contact while emulsifying the oil droplets. The role of promoters may be different for different types of coals, however. They could be employed as modifiers to increase the hydrophobicity of low rank coals whereas their main role might be emulsification and aggregation control for high rank coals. In this paper, a detailed description of the various phases in coal flotation, their physical and chemical interactions with each other in the flotation pulp, the major parameters that affect these interactions and how these interactions, in turn, influence the flotation process are discussed.
