    Caffeic Acid Phenethyl Ester (cape) Chitosan Capped Zno Nanoparticles: Preparation, Characterization, and Its Potential for the Treatment of Prostate Cancer
    (Elsevier B.V., 2024) İnce,İ.; Yıldırım,Y.; Göker,E.; Güler,G.; Saltan,F.; Acar,R.; Medine,E.İ.
    The synthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles/chitosan (ZnONPs/CS) formulation loaded with Caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE) was performed to evaluate its prostate cancer treatment efficiency within the scope of this research. It has been hypothesized that a dual active materials delivery system containing ZnO and CAPE loaded Chitosan (CS) nanoparticles has better bioavailability compared to single one against to cancer cells. ZnONPs were synthesized between 45 and 60 nm particle sizes and then they were capped with CS biodegradable polymer prior to load with CAPE bioactive molecule. ZnONPs/CS-CAPE system was characterized by using Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) for structural elucidation, Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) for particle size determination, High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) system for determination of CAPE amount. 131I CAPE and 131I ZnONPs/CS-CAPE labeled by the Iodogen method with 131I were used in-vitro cell culture experiments. Cell viabilities (%) of CAPE and ZnONPs/CS-CAPE were examined using Cell Counting Kit-8 assay on PC-3 (human adenocarcinoma prostate), LnCaP (human carcinoma prostate), and RWPE-1 (human normal prostate). IC50 values of ZnONPs /CS -CAPE on all cells were found 2-fold lower than neat CAPE. Based on the FTIR data, the most significant spectral changes (lipid, protein, nucleic acids, glycogen) were monitored for the PC-3 and LnCaP cancer cells incubated with ZnONPs/CS-CAPE samples while being exposed to neat CAPE molecules caused small cellular changes when compared to RWPE-1 healthy cell lines. © 2024

    Granulation of Hydrometallurgically Synthesized Spinel Lithium Manganese Oxide Using Cross-Linked Chitosan for Lithium Adsorption From Water
    (Elsevier B.V., 2024) Recepoğlu,Y.K.; Arabacı,B.; Kahvecioğlu,A.; Yüksel,A.
    A drastic increase in demand for electric vehicles and energy storage systems increases lithium (Li) need as a critical metal for the 21st century. Lithium manganese oxides stand out among inorganic adsorbents because of their high capacity, chemical stability, selectivity, and affordability for lithium recovery from aqueous media. This study investigates using hydrometallurgically synthesized lithium manganese oxide (Li1.6Mn1.6O4) in granular form coated with cross-linked chitosan for lithium recovery from water. Characterization methods such as SEM, FTIR, XRD, and BET reveal the successful synthesis of the composite adsorbent. Granular cross-linked chitosan-coated and delithiated lithium manganese oxide (CTS/HMO) adsorbent demonstrated optimal removal efficiency of 86 % at pH 12 with 4 g/L of adsorbent dosage. The Langmuir isotherm at 25 °C, which showed monolayer adsorption with a maximum capacity of 4.94 mg/g, a better fit for the adsorption behavior of CTS/HMO. Adsorption was endothermic and thermodynamically spontaneous. Lithium adsorption followed the pseudo-first-order kinetic model. © 2024

    Using Loofah Reinforced Chitosan-Collagen Hydrogel Based Scaffolds In-Vitro and In-Vivo; Healing in Cartilage Tissue Defects
    (Elsevier B.V., 2023) Baysan, G.; Gunes, O.C.; Turemis, C.; Akokay, Yilmaz, P.; Husemoglu, R.B.; Kara, Ozenler, A.; Perpelek, M.
    The herein article aims to report a new scaffold design as a loofah-reinforced chitosan-collagen hydrogel composite scaffold with three different cross-linker concentrations (0.1, 0.3, and 0.5 wt. /v%). From the analyses, the scaffold crosslinked with 0.5% genipin; collagen-chitosan hydrogel scaffold reinforced with loofah (L-CCol5) was found to be suitable for further in vitro and in vivo studies due to its interconnected porous structure, water content (∼ 97%) and tan delta (0.221 at 1 Hz) values comparable to that of cartilage tissue. In vitro analyses depicted that the L-CCol5 scaffold supported rabbit mesenchymal stem cells (rMSCs) adhesion and proliferation with its non-cytotoxic feature. Moreover, in vivo cartilage healing studies were performed using New Zealand male rabbits in three groups: empty control, cell-free scaffold, and rMSCs-laden scaffold. The elastic moduli of these three groups were 0.69, 0.90, and 1.18 MPa, respectively. Besides, microcomputer tomography (MicroCT) scannings supported the in vivo biomechanical analyses as cell-laden scaffolds showed better osteochondral healing. It can be concluded that the L-CCol5 scaffold could be a promising construct in osteochondral tissue engineering applications. The findings revealed that osteochondral remodeling precedes articular cartilage, providing insight into tailored therapeutic approaches, disease progress, and treatment consequences. © 2023 Acta Materialia Inc.
