Article Tc-99m Erythromycin Lactobionate Inhalation Scintigraphy in Parenchymal Lung Diseases(Elsevier Science inc, 1999) Durak, H; Aktogu, S; Degirmenci, B; Sayit, E; Ertay, T; Dereli, SWe have investigated Technetium 99m erythromycin lactobionate (Tc 99m EL) clearance from the lungs after inhalation, in the presence of an alveolitis. Eighteen patients (6 sarcoidosis, 7 idiopathic fibrosis, and 5 miliary tuberculosis) were imaged after the patients inhaled 1,110 MBq of Tc 99m EL. Clearance half time for the first 45 min, for 24 h, and retention at 24 h correlated with percentage of lymphocytes in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BAL) (r =.729, r =.883, and r =.826, respectively). There was a positive correlation between peripheral penetration (PP) and forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) (r =.806) and forced vital capacity (FVC) (r =.781). Retention was more marked in sarcoidosis compared with tuberculosis (0.025 < p less than or equal to 0.05). Radioaerosol lung imaging may reflect the pulmonary function impairment in parenchymal lung diseases. Retention of Tc 99m EL may be related to number of BAL cells or presence of a lymphocytic alveolitis. Long residency time of Tc 99m EL in the lungs implies that erythromycin can also be administered by inhalation for therapeutic purposes. NUCL MED BIOL 26;6:695-698, 1999.

The controller is developed under the assumption that the user and environmental input forces arc unmeasurable. Lyapunov-based stability analysis is used to prove that the proposed controller yields asymptotic tracking results and ensures the coordination of the master and slave systems while satisfying a sub-task objective. Numerical simulation results are presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed controller.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 7Modeling of Low Temperature Geothermal District Heating Systems(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2004) Yıldırım, Nurdan; Gökçen, GüldenIn this work, low temperature geothermal district heating systems with heat pumps have been studied and compared with fuel-oil boiler heating systems for intermittent and continuous regimes according to the optimum indoor air temperature and operational cost. Izmir Institute of Technology (IZTECH) Campus is taken as a case study. Various heat pump and boiler configurations are studied to meet required duty. Operational cost analysis for each alternative is conducted. According to the results, for IZTECH Campus the best alternative, which gives the optimum indoor air temperature and the lowest operational cost, is heat pump continuous regime.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 1Kinetic and Thermodynamic Properties of Crude and Three-Phase Partitioned Polygalacturonase From Aspergillus Sojae(Elsevier, 2007) Doğan, Nergiz; Tari, Canan; Göğüş, NihanCommercial preparations of pectinolytic enzymes derived from fungi are well known to have high biotechnological value in the industry. Since potential applications of pectinases in vari- ous fields of food, paper, textile and waste water treatment are increasing, it is important to understand the properties of these enzymes for efficient and effective usage.Conference Object Effect of Symbiotic Relationship of Lactobacillus Butgaricus 77 and Streptococcus Thermophilus 9512 on Betagalactosidase and Lactic Acid Production(Elsevier, 2007) Üstok, Fatma Işık; Tari, Canan; Harsa, ŞebnemEnzyme production which is a growing field of biotechnology has an annual world sale close to billion dollars. Therefore isolation of new strains producing novel enzymes is important for industrial enzyme production.Conference Object The Cytoprotective Effects of Zinc on Cyclophosphamide Induced Hematoxicity(Elsevier Ltd., 2007) Ayhancı, Adnan; Doğan, Sevgi Zeynep; Appak, Sıla; Doğan, Sevgi[No abstract available]Conference Object Conference Object Enabling the Quantitation of Post Translational Modifications(Springer Verlag, 2009) Allmer, Jens[No abstract available]Article Citation - WoS: 14Particle Deposition Simulation Using the Cfd Code Fluent(Maney Publishing, 2000) Yılmaz, Selahattin; Cliffe, K. R.Particles of Soda Lime Silica Glass were used to simulate fly ash in the modelling of particle deposition from a high-temperature flue gas on to a superheater tube. The computational fluid dynamic code FLUENT was used and experimental deposition data were obtained from a rig comprising a small scale furnace containing an air-cooled probe. The effects of particle size, gas velocity and temperature on deposition were investigated. The effects of inertia, eddy impaction, thermophoresis and gravity on the particle trajectories were considered. The number of particles captured by the probe and the furnace surfaces were predicted and agreement with experimental results was found to be a function of particle size with the best agreement achieved for 16- and 26-mu m particles. Deposition was controlled by the kinetic energy of the particles and the adhesive forces of the surface. It is postulated that, for small particles, there was insufficient energy to bond them to the surface whereas for larger particles their kinetic energy was too targe. Thermophoresis did not play a significant part in the deposition process because, although the temperature gradient was large, 400 degrees C mm(-1) in the thermal boundary layer, the small particles (6 and 8 mu m) were unable to reach the thermal boundary layer (9 mm) which was much smaller than the hydrodynamic boundary layer (49.5 mm).Article Citation - WoS: 2Reduction of Carbon Dioxide During the Synthesis of Metal Nano-Particles in Water(Elsevier Ltd., 2003) Polat, Hürriyet; Cohen, H; Meyerstein, D; Rusonik, I.An effort was made to synthesize "carbon-free" metal (Fe-0, Co-0, Ni-0) nano-particles via the reduction of their salts with BH4- in aqueous solutions. Surprisingly it was found that when the synthesis is carried out in the presence of CO2, e.g., in aerated solutions, the CO2 is catalytically reduced by BH(4)(-)on the surface of the metal particles. Carbon-free metals can be prepared by reduction under an inert atmosphere. Thus metal surfaces might have acted as catalysts for CO2 fixation, probably via the initial formation of carbon clusters, in the reductive atmosphere in the prebiotic era. (C) 2003 Elsevier B.V.
