Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 4Photocatalytic Degradation of Aquatic Organic Pollutants With Zn- and Zr-Based Metalorganic Frameworks: Zif-8 and Uio-66(TÜBİTAK - Türkiye Bilimsel ve Teknolojik Araştırma Kurumu, 2022) Özkan, Seher Fehime; Erdoğan, Bilgesu; Yılmaz, Esra; Saygı, Gizem; Çakıcıoğlu-Özkan, Fehime; 03.02. Department of Chemical Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyWater treatment has been an essential issue with the increasing population over 40 years. Researchers center on the major organic pollutants, such as dyes, pesticides, and pharmaceutical products. Photocatalytic degradation is one of the promising methods for aquatic organic pollutant treatment. Over the years, scientists have been working on developments for photocatalysts to enhance their pollutant degradation performances. From the reviewed studies, it is seen that properties like surface area, chemical, mechanical, and thermal stability, and uniform distribution of active sites are crucial, and an increase in these properties provides better degradation efficiency. In this sense, metal-organic frameworks as photocatalysts can be considered more advantageous. This study focuses on the organic aquatic pollutant degradation studies by using well-known MOFs like ZIF-8 and UiO-66 photocatalysts. Mainly the organic dye (RhB, MB, MO, etc.) degradation efficiencies of ZIF-8 and UiO-66 have been achieved to 100%. Recently, the degradation capacities of various pharmaceuticals such as diazinon, acetaminophen, levofloxacin, and sulfamethoxazole have also been investigated. According to the reviewed studies, ZIF-8 and UiO-66 can be considered remarkable photocatalysts for the degradation of organic pollutants.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 1Magnetic Levitation-Based Adipose Tissue Engineering Using Horizontal Magnet Deployment(IEEE, 2020) Tekin, Hüseyin Cumhur; Anıl İnevi, Müge; Sarıgil, Öykü; Meşe Özçivici, Gülistan; Yılmaz, Esra; Sarıgil, Öykü; Özçelik, Özge; Meşe Özçivici, Gülistan; Meşe, Gülistan; Meşe Özçivici, Gülistan; Tekin, H.

Faculty of ScienceMagnetic levitation is a promising technique for tissue engineering with contact- and label-free approach. Levitation-based biofabrication systems emerge as a simple, rapid and versatile alternative to traditional tissue culture systems, since biofabrication specs can easily be tailored via magnet shape and configuration. This study aims at possible magnetic levitation systems for culture of adipose tissue cells. In this study, we performed two different magnet configurations, vertical and horizontal deployment, in an effort to be utilized in adipose tissue engineering.Article Citation - WoS: 24Citation - Scopus: 30Hologlev: a Hybrid Magnetic Levitation Platform Integrated With Lensless Holographic Microscopy for Density-Based Cell Analysis(American Chemical Society, 2021) Delikoyun, Kerem; Anıl İnevi, Müge; Yaman, Sena; Yalçın Özuysal, Özden; Sarıgil, Öykü; Telli, Kübra; Yalçın Özuysal, Özden; 01.

Faculty of ScienceIn clinical practice, a variety of diagnostic applications require the identification of target cells. Density has been used as a physical marker to distinguish cell populations since metabolic activities could alter the cell densities. Magnetic levitation offers great promise for separating cells at the single cell level within heterogeneous populations with respect to cell densities. Traditional magnetic levitation platforms need bulky and precise optical microscopes to visualize levitated cells. Moreover, the evaluation process of cell densities is cumbersome, which also requires trained personnel for operation. In this work, we introduce a device (HologLev) as a fusion of the magnetic levitation principle and lensless digital inline holographic microscopy (LDIHM). LDIHM provides ease of use by getting rid of bulky and expensive optics. By placing an imaging sensor just beneath the microcapillary channel without any lenses, recorded holograms are processed for determining cell densities through a fully automated digital image processing scheme. The device costs less than $100 and has a compact design that can fit into a pocket. We perform viability tests on the device by levitating three different cell lines (MDA-MB-231, U937, D1 ORL UVA) and comparing them against their dead correspondents. We also tested the differentiation of mouse osteoblastic (7F2) cells by monitoring characteristic variations in their density. Last, the response of MDA-MB-231 cancer cells to a chemotherapy drug was demonstrated in our platform. HologLev provides cost-effective, label-free, fully automated cell analysis in a compact design that could be highly desirable for laboratory and point-of-care testing applications.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 3Microfluidic Platform for Sorting Materials Based on Their Densities Using Magnetic Levitation(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2019) Yılmaz, Esra; Tekin, Hüseyin Cumhur; Özçivici, Engin; Özçivici, Engin; Tekin, Hüseyin Cumhur; 03.01. Department of Bioengineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyCirculating Tumor Cells (CTCs) play a vital role in cancer diagnosis, prognosis and personalized medicine. However, CTCs are extremely rare in blood (i.e., down to 1-100 CTC per 1 mL human blood) and hard to isolate because of the heterogeneity of CTCs in biomarker expression. The current CTC separation and identification techniques use numerous differences between cells such as size, electric charges, density and expression of cell surface markers. However, these techniques have many limitations in terms of laborious sample preparation steps, inconsistent results caused by low specificity and efficiency and high cost. Hence, there is no standard method for isolating CTCs yet. With this study, it was aimed to fill the gap in CTC isolation and identification by proposing to develop a new method based on magnetic levitation principle, which has recently been demonstrated as a highly acceptable method for biological characterization of cells and monitoring of their cellular events. In this study, we have developed a new label-free microfluidic sorter to separate microparticles/cells based on their densities using magnetic levitation principle. Two different density microparticles (1.02 g/mL and 1.09 g/ mL) have been sorted and quantified in a continuous flow using a set of permanent magnets located in a 3D printed structure surrounding the microfluidic channel. This device can be used for rapid, low cost and label-free in-vitro diagnosis of cancer by sorting CTCs from whole blood in a high-Throughput manner. The sorted cells might further be used for downstream analysis for personalized and precision medicine. © 2019 IEEE.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 5Application of Magnetic Levitation Induced Weightlessness To Detect Cell Lineage(IEEE, 2019) Anıl İnevi, Müge; Sarıgil, Öykü; Meşe Özçivici, Gülistan; Tekin, Hüseyin Cumhur; Özçivici, Engin; Tekin, Hüseyin Cumhur; Özçivici, Engin; 03.01.

Faculty of ScienceIdentification and classification of bone marrow cells is an important step for molecular biology and therapeutic studies related to bone marrow disorders such as osteoporosis or obesity. In this study, we applied magnetic levitation technology to induce a weightlessness environment to detect adipocytes and osteoblasts based on their single cell density. This biotechnological method can be used for separation of heterogeneous populations such as bone marrow once adapted to a continuous microfluidic platform.
