    Tissue Engineering Applications of Marine-Based Materials
    (Springer, 2022) Polat, Hürriyet; Zeybek, Nuket; Polat, Mehmet
    Tissue engineering is a promising approach in replacing or improving tissues lost or has become nonviable due to disease or trauma by the use of scaffold materials by combining engineering and biochemical/physicochemical methods. Its purpose is to create suitable matrices that support cell differentiation and proliferation toward the formation of new and functional tissue. Marine-based natural compounds are potential scaffold feedstock material in tissue engineering owing to their biocompatibility and biodegradability while providing excellent biochemical/physicochemical properties. Numerous application areas and various fabrication routes techniques described in the literature attest to the importance of these materials in tissue regeneration. This review has been carried to merge the information from a large number of studies on the marine-based scaffold materials in tissue engineering into a coherent summary. © The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2022.

    Biomimetic Peptide-Conjugated Membranes for Developing an Artificial Cornea
    (IEEE, 2022) Sunal, Gülşah; Pulat, Günnur; Akgün, İsmail Hakkı; Güven, Sinan; Yıldız, Ümit Hakan; Karaman, Ozan; Horzum, Nesrin
    The corneal endothelium is composed of a single layer of specialized endothelial cells, protecting, and nourishing the inner surface of the cornea. Corneal endothelial cells do not proliferate after birth and their number decrease with age. Trauma, inflammation, or surgical intervention can cause cell loss. When damage is extensive and the density of corneal endothelial cells decreases to a critical level, it results in corneal edema and vision loss. Besides them, when corneal endothelium has irreversible damage, the only treatment way is corneal transplantation. But there are some drawbacks such as finding donors, immune reactions, and the number of patients waiting on the transplantation lists for years. Tissue engineering approaches can provide promising alternatives for the regeneration of corneal endothelium tissue. Peptides can be used to modify and functionalize the scaffolds, allowing for the production of bioactive and biomimetic surfaces. Peptide-modified scaffold surfaces might direct and enhance the behaviors of cells. In this study, the aim was to functionalize the polycaprolactone (PCL) membranes with tissue-specific peptides and to characterize the peptide-conjugated membranes by Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), and X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) analysis. The synthesized peptides were successfully conjugated on the PCL biomembranes.

    Engineered Silica Nanoparticles Are Biologically Safe Vehicles To Deliver Drugs or Genes To Liver Cells
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2021) Tüncel, Özge; Kahraman, Erkan; Bağcı, Gülsün; Atabey, Neşe; Özçelik, Serdar
    Engineered silica nanoparticles (SiNP) are emerging materials for medical applications. Evaluating biological responses of specific cells treated with engineered silica nanoparticles is however essential. We synthesized and characterized the physicochemical properties of silica nanoparticles with two different sizes of 10 and 100 nm (10SiNP and 100SiNP) dispersed in cell culture medium. HuH-7, an epithelial-like human hepatoblastoma cell line and SK-HEP-1, a liver sinusoidal endothelial cell line (LSEC) are employed to evaluate their biological responses for the SiNP treatment. Primary human lymphocytes are used to assess genotoxicity recommended by OECD guidelines while erythrocytes are used to assess hemolytic activity. The engineered silica nanoparticles are not able to produce radical species, to alter the mitochondrial membrane potential, and induce any adverse effects on cell proliferation. The colony formation ability of HuH-7 hepatoblastoma cells was not affected following the SiNP treatment. Furthermore, SiNPs do not induce hemolysis of red blood cells and are not genotoxic. These findings suggest that SiNPs regardless of the size, amount, and incubation time are biologically safe vehicles to deliver drugs or genes to the liver. © 2020 Elsevier B.V.

    Recent Advances in Chitosan-Based Systems for Delivery of Anticancer Drugs
    (Springer, 2020) Polat, Mehmet; Polat, Hürriyet
    Problems in transporting drug molecules to tumor sites in required dose or constitution lead to low efficacy and significant side effects. Shielding the drug molecules in micelles, liposomes, or nanoparticles is a major line of investigation to improve chemotherapeutic treatment. Though compatibility for proper envelopment of the drug and timely release at the tumor site are required of such a carrier, protecting its own physicochemical and morphological integrity during transport is another precondition. Because of its superior polymerization capability, biocompatibility, pH dependence, and charging characteristics, chitosan has been in the forefront of potential drug carriers. Numerous synthesis routes for chitosan-based nanocarriers have been suggested to the extent that a search of the literature published since 2000 with the keywords “novel + nano + chitosan” in the title results in 527 articles, indicating the bewildering quality and quantity of the new information. This review was carried out not only to peruse this large amount of work on chitosan-based anticancer drug delivery but also to extract manageable patterns from numerous synthesis routes. The main conclusion is that the synthesis methods suggested in literature can be combined into two main routes, and the degree of hydrophobicity of the drug determines which route should be followed. © Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2019.

    The Multiwavelength Uv/Vis Detector: New Possibilities With an Added Spectral Dimension
    (Springer Verlag, 2016) Karabudak, Engin; Cölfen, Helmut
    The multiwavelength (MWL) detector is a new type of absorption detector for AUC. The commercial absorption detector of the Beckman Coulter XLA AUC can only handle a single wavelength per scan with the possibility to scan at maximum 3 wavelengths, whereas MWL-AUC can handle all the wavelengths in the UV/Vis region at one time. The result is impressive since now a full spectral dimension is added to each single scan. In this chapter, we are explaining development history, instrumentation, and future perspective of MWL-AUC.

    Yapay Sindirim Sıvısında Doğal Zeolitlerde Meydana Gelen Morfolojik Değişmeler
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2009) Demirbüker Kavak, Dilek; Özçelik, Serdar; Ülkü, Semra
    Doğal zeolitler biyoaktif maddelerdir. Doğal zeolitlerin hayvanlarda biyokütle arttırıcı besi katkı maddesi, insanlarda ülser tedavisinde mide asitliğini tamponlayıcı, asitliği düşürücü ilaç gibi değişik kullanım alanları mevcuttur. Değişik sağlık alanlarında kullanımlarından dolayı, zeolitlerin yapısal stabilitesinin sindirim sırasında belirlenmesi; olası olumlu veya olumsuz etkileşimleri anlamak açısından önem taşımaktadır. Gerçekleştirilen araştırmada, yapay sindirim sırasında zeolitte meydana gelebilecek olası morfolojik değişimlerin incelenmesi hedeflenmiştir. Bu amaçla zeolitin ABTS ile radikal sönümleme kapasitesi araştırılmış, yapay sindirim denemeleri gerçekleştirilerek de uygulama süreci sonrası yapıda olası değişimler ve adsorpsiyonlar taramalı elektron mikroskobu, FTIR, XRD analizleri ile incelenmiştir. 3g/100ml zeolitin ABTS radikalini %45 inhibe ettiği bulunmuştur. Taramalı elektron mikroskobu deneyleri sonucunda yapay sindirilmiş örneklerin yüzey morfolojisinde değişim gözlenmemiştir. Element analizleri yapısal kaybın olmadığını, Al ve Si elementlerinin ağırlıkça yüzdelerinin, kontrol örnekleriyle (Al:8.1; Si: 39) sindirilmiş örneklerde (Al:8.2; Si: 38.3) yaklaşık aynı olduğunu göstermiştir. Infrared spektrum (IR) ve X-ray ışını kırınımı analizleri sonuçları ise bu bulguları doğrulamıştır. Ayrıca taramalı elektron mikroskobu ve IR spektrum sonuçları yapay sindirim ortamındaki maddelerin, zeolit yüzeyinde adsorplanmadıklarıını göstermektedir. Sonuç olarak doğal zeolitler, yapay sindirim sırasında yapısal stabilitelerini kaybetmemektedirler.

    Determination of Aluminum Rolling Oil and Machinery Oil Residues on Finished Aluminum Sheet and Foil Using Elemental Analysis and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy Coupled With Multivariate Calibration
    (John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2014) İnanç Uçar, Özlem; Mollaoğlu Altuner, Hatice; Günyüz, Mert; Dündar, Mustafa Murat; Özdemir, Durmuş
    The surface characteristics of rolled aluminum products such as sheets and foils are strongly affected by the particular rolling process and the type of aluminum rolling oil compositions. After the rolling process, coiled aluminum sheets and foils undergoes annealing to form desired crystal structure and remove the rolling oil residues. Depending on the time and the temperature that rolled aluminum exposed for annealing, rolling oil residues are mostly removed from the coiled aluminum products but if there is any contamination in rolling oil due to hydraulic and gearing parts of the rolling systems these heavier oils are not easily evaporates from the aluminum surfaces especially inner parts of the coiled aluminum sheets and foils. These rolling oil contaminants create serious problems for the some specific applications of these aluminum products in certain industries such as automotive and coating as remaining thin oil layer prevents proper painting and coating. Therefore, it is very crucial for the rolling industry to be able to monitor the heavy oil contamination on the rolled products and determine the source of these contaminants .In this study, it was aimed to develop a nondestructive infrared spectroscopic method combined with chemometric multivariate calibration techniques for the quantitative determination of rolling oil residues and contaminants on the rolled aluminum products. To be able to generate multivariate calibration methods, an industrial elemental analysis system was adopted for the quantitative determination of heavy oil contaminants on the rolled aluminum products and these were used as reference values for infrared analysis of the same samples. In addition, apart from conventional use of elemental analysis systems for the total organic analysis, the raw data (raw chromatogram) obtained from elemental analysis was used to directly generate multivariate calibration models for each contaminant by using synthetically contaminated surfaces as the calibration samples. The results promised that elemental analysis can be used not just for the total organic content but also specifically to determine amount of each contaminant on the aluminum surfaces, it is also, expected that infrared spectroscopy with grazing angle spectra collection accessories can be used for nondestructive analysis of these contaminants.s.

    Mass Spectroscopy in Polymer Research
    (John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2012) Hacaloğlu, Jale; Yalçın, Talat
    Mass spectrometers are currently available in numerous confi gurations with various ionization techniques and mass analyzers. For a specifi c polymer sample, an optimal choice should be done depending on the information sought. In practice, no single mass spectrometric technique can provide all necessary information for structural, compositional, and thermal and oxidative degradation characteristics of polymeric samples. The analyzer used determines the limits of the sensitivity and resolution and the mass range, whereas the type of ionization source specifi es the information that can be gained.
