    Development of Mg-Alginate Based Self Disassociative Bio-Ink for Magnetic Bio-Patterning of 3d Tumor Models
    (Wiley-v C H verlag Gmbh, 2024) Coban, Basak; Baskurt, Mehmet; Sahin, Hasan; Arslan-Yildiz, Ahu
    Alginate forms a hydrogel via physical cross-linking with divalent cations. In literature, Ca2+ is mostly utilized due to strong interactions but additional procedures are required to disassociate Ca-alginate hydrogels. On the other hand, Mg-alginate hydrogels disassociate spontaneously, which might benefit certain applications. This study introduces Mg-alginate as the main component of a bio-ink for the first time to obtain 3D tumor models by magnetic bio-patterning technique. The bio-ink contains magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) for magnetic manipulation, Mg-alginate hydrogel as a sacrificial material, and cells. The applicability of the methodology is tested for the formation of 3D tumor models using HeLa, SaOS-2, and SH-SY5Y cells. Long-term cultures are examined by Live/dead and MTT analysis and revealed high cell viability. Subsequently, Collagen and F-actin expressions are observed successfully in 3D tumor models. Finally, the anti-cancer drug Doxorubicin (DOX) effect is investigated on 3D tumor models, and IC50 values is calculated to assess the drug response. As a result, significantly higher drug resistance is observed for bio-patterned 3D tumor models up to tenfold compared to 2D control. Overall, Mg-alginate hydrogel is successfully used to form bio-patterned 3D tumor models, and the applicability of the model is shown effectively, especially as a drug screening platform.

    Experimental and Theoretical Investigation of Synthesis and Properties of Dodecanethiol-Functionalized Mos<sub>2</Sub>
    (Royal Soc Chemistry, 2023) Duran, Tuna A.; Şahin, Hasan; Sabani, Denis; Milosevic, Milorad V.; Sahin, Hasan
    Herein, we investigate the DDT (1-dodecanethiol) functionalization of exfoliated MoS2 by using experimental and theoretical tools. For the functionalization of MoS2, DDT treatment was incorporated into the conventional NMP (N-methyl pyrrolidone) exfoliation procedure. Afterward, it has been demonstrated that the functionalization process is successful through optical, morphological and theoretical analysis. The D, G and 2LA peaks seen in the Raman spectrum of exfoliated NMP-MoS2 particles, indicate the formation of graphitic species on MoS2 sheets. In addition, as the DDT ratio increases, the vacant sites on MoS2 sheets diminish. Moreover, at an optimized ratio of DDT-NMP, the maximum number of graphitic quantum dots (GQDs) is observed on MoS2 nanosheets. Specifically, the STEM and AFM data confirm that GQDs reside on the MoS2 nano-sheets and also that the particle size of the DDT-MoS2 is mostly fixed, while the NMP-MoS2 show many smaller and distributed sizes. The comparison of PL intensities of the NMP-MoS2 and DDT-MoS2 samples states a 10-fold increment is visible, and a 60-fold increment in NIR region photoluminescent properties. Moreover, our results lay out understanding and perceptions on the surface and edge chemistry of exfoliated MoS2 and open up more opportunities for MoS2 and GQD particles with broader applications.
