    Iron Absorption: Factors, Limitations, and Improvement Methods
    (American Chemical Society, 2022) Pişkin, Elif; Güleç, Şükrü; Güleç, Şükrü; Tomas, Merve; Çapanoğlu, Esra; 03.08. Department of Food Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    Iron is an essential element for human life since it participates in many functions in the human body, including oxygen transport, immunity, cell division and differentiation, and energy metabolism. Iron homeostasis is mainly controlled by intestinal absorption because iron does not have active excretory mechanisms for humans. Thus, efficient intestinal iron bioavailability is essential to reduce the risk of iron deficiency anemia. There are two forms of iron, heme and nonheme, found in foods. The average daily dietary iron intake is 10 to 15 mg in humans since only 1 to 2 mg is absorbed through the intestinal system. Nutrient-nutrient interactions may play a role in dietary intestinal iron absorption. Dietary inhibitors such as calcium, phytates, polyphenols and enhancers such as ascorbic acid and proteins mainly influence iron bioavailability. Numerous studies have been carried out for years to enhance iron bioavailability and combat iron deficiency. In addition to traditional methods, innovative techniques are being developed day by day to enhance iron bioavailability. This review will provide information about iron bioavailability, factors affecting absorption, iron deficiency, and recent studies on improving iron bioavailability.

    First-Principles Study of Dissociation Processes for the Synthesis of Fe and Co Oxide Nanoparticles
    (American Chemical Society, 2018) Özdamar, Burak; Bouzid, Assil; Ori, Guido; Massobrio, Carlo; Boero, Mauro; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    Thermal decomposition is a practical and reliable tool to synthesize nanoparticles with monodisperse size distribution and reproducible accuracy. The nature of the precursor molecules and their interaction with the environment during the synthesis process have a direct impact on the resulting nanoparticles. Our study focuses on widely used transition-metal (Co, Fe) stearates precursors and their thermal decomposition reaction pathway. We show how the nature of the metal and the presence or absence of water molecules, directly related to the humidity conditions during the synthesis process, affect the decomposition mechanism and the resulting transition-metal oxide building blocks. This, in turn, has a direct effect on the physical and chemical properties of the produced nanoparticles and deeply influences their composition and morphology.

    Batch Removal of Aqueous Cu2+ Ions Using Nanoparticles of Zero-Valent Iron: a Study of the Capacity and Mechanism of Uptake
    (American Chemical Society, 2008) Karabelli, Duygu; Üzüm, Çağrı; Eroğlu, Ahmet Emin; Eroğlu, Ahmet Emin; Scott, Tom B.; Shahwan, Talal; Lieberwirth, Ingo; 04.01. Department of Chemistry; 04. Faculty of Science; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    In this study, nZVI prepared by borohydride reduction was applied for the removal of Cu2+ ions under a variety of experimental conditions. The uptake experiments investigated the effects of initial concentration, contact time, pH, and repetitive loading on the extent of retardation of Cu2+ ions. Within the applied conditions, the sorbent demonstrated fast uptake kinetics and outstanding fixation abilities up to an initial Cu2+ concentration of 200.0 mg/L. Partitioning of Cu2+ ions between liquid and solid phases demonstrated an isotherm of L-type. Within the studied conditions, the capacity of uptake was found to be 250 mg of Cu2+ per g of nZVI. According to X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) results, Cu2+ ions were sorbed primarily via a redox mechanism that resulted in the formation of Cu2O and Cu0. The contact of iron nanoparticles with aqueous media caused extensive formation of iron oxide. However, the material did not completely lose its removal capacity and was repeatedly applied at low concentrations for further uptake trials.
