Conference Object Visualization of Equilibrium Fcc Catalyst Surface by Afm and Sem-Eds(American Chemical Society, 2003) Bayraktar, Oğuz; Erdoğan, G.; Kugler, Edwin L.[No abstract available]Conference Object Antioxidant, Antimicrobial and Cytotoxic Activities of Some Turkish Plant Extracts(John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2006) Altıok, Evren; Asbagh, L. Abbasi; Bulut, Çisem; Ülkü, Semra; Bayraktar, OğuzPlant extracts have been known to possess notable biological activity, including antioxidant, antimicrobial and cytotoxic properties. There is a growing interest in the use of natural products in the human food industries as consumer resistance to synthetic additives increases. These products can be used to improve human health. In vitro antioxidant, antimicrobial and cytotoxic activities of ethanol extracts of some plants from Urla region in Turkey were investigated. Plant materials were collected from Pistacia lentiscus, Vitex agnus-castus, Cistus creticus and Nerium oleander in October, November and December.Conference Object Hidrofobik İlaç Taşıyıcısı Olarak Akrilik Yıldız Blok Kopolimerler(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2009) Genç, Gözde; Batıgün, Ayşegül; Bayraktar, Oğuz; Altıntaş, Özcan; Tunca, Ümit; Hizal, GürkanAmphiphilic poly(methyl methacrylate)-b-poly(acrylic acid) (PMMA-b-PAA) copolymers with 4 and 6 arms were synthesized by Atomic Transfer Radical Polymerization (ATRP). The polymers were characterized by GPC, H-NMR and FTIR analysis. Polymer samples synthesized at various molecular weights between 18-80 kDa were investigated in terms of maximum loading capacity and critical micelle concentration by fluorescence spectroscopy. 4 arm PMMA-b-PAA (MW 30 kDa) was loaded with hydrophobic model drug indomethacin with an extremely high drug loading efficiency (22.5% drug content). Drug loaded polymer formed a stable and biodegradable complex in aqueous medium.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 2Incorporation of Equisetum Arvense Extract Into Silk Fibroin-Hyaluronic Acid Sponge Matrices for Wound Dressing Applications(Elsevier, 2012) Uslu, Mehmet Emin; Erdoğan, İpek; Bayraktar, OğuzEquisetum arvense extract has frequently been investigated for its antioxidant capacity, antimicrobial and antitumor properties. However, one of the challenges in natural compound investi-gations is to maintain the stability of polyphenolic compounds during their storage and applications. For this purpose extracts can be incorporated into different forms of biomaterial. In this research silk fibroin (SF) and hyaluronic acid (HA) was used as sponge matri-ces for wound dressing application.Conference Object In Vitro Antitumor Activity of Sarcopoterium Spinosum Leaf Extract With Bioactive Natural Compounds(Elsevier, 2013) Süngüç, Ceren; Erdoğan, İpek; Uslu, Mehmet Emin; Bayraktar, OğuzCancer cell lines cause generation of reactive oxygen species and free radicals at high levels (Wang and Yi, 2008). Then generated free radicals lead to breakdown of the structure of DNA, lipid or protein (Gul et al., 2011). When plant extracts including antioxidant phytochemicals are exposed to the redox reactions, the harmful effects of free radicals are effectively prevented. The aim of present research was to evaluate the antitumor potential of the extract derived from Sarcopoterium spinosum leaves. The leaves of S. spinosum were collected in Izmir, Turkey. Total phenol content of ethanolic.Conference Object Investigation of Anti-Tumoral Activity of Cistus Creticus Extract Against Pc-3 Cell Line(Elsevier, 2013) Erdoğan, İpek; Süngüç, Ceren; Uslu, Mehmet Emin; Bayraktar, OğuzRecent studies have revealed that plant extracts show cytotoxic activities against cancer cell lines by ceasing cell division in particular phases (Xu et al., 2012, Yıldırım et al., 2013). Expression of specific genes was found to be activated according to pathway in which cell death occurs. Objective of this study was to identify antitumoural effect of Cistus creticus, which is a perennial shrub, found in Mediterranean region, against prostate cancer cell line by measuring the cytotoxic activities and apoptotic gene expression levels.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 4Trans-resveratrol’ün Kitosan Mikroküreler İçerisindeki Kararlılığı(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2009) Altıok, Duygu; Altıok, Evren; Bayraktar, Oğuz; Tıhmınlıoğlu, Fundatrans-Resveratrol, (3,5,4?-trihydroxy-trans-stilbene), a phenolic compound present in some plant species, have been shown to posses antioxidative, anticarcinogenic and antitumour properties. However, under UV light, it turns into -cis form and looses its bioactivity.This study aims to increase the stability of trans-resveratrol by loading it into chitosan microspheres. Within this context, the trans-resveratrol loaded chitosan microspheres was produced by spray drying and then the resultant microspheres were characterized. The particle size and the surface morphology of resultant microspheres were investigated by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and the thermal properties were determined by thermogravimetry analyser(TGA). The stability of free and that of inside the microspheres was determined by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). It was found that the stability of trans-resveratrol incorporated into chitosan microspheres kept constant. ©2009 IEEE.Book Part Polyelectrolytes Thermodynamics and Rheology Preface(Springer, 2014) Visakh, P. M.; Bayraktar, Oğuz; Alfredo Pico, Guillermo[No abstract available]Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 8A Research on the Production of Silk Sericin Powders by Using Spray Drying Method(Ege Üniversitesi, 2009) Genç, Gözde; Bayraktar, Oğuz; Başal, GüldemetSericin protein is usually discarded as a waste in silk industry. Production of silk sericin powders, which can be incorporated into fibers used in textile industry, by spray drying method will enable value-added utilization of waste sericin. in this study aqueous sericin solutions were used as raw material for the production of dry powders using a lab-scale spray dryer. A linear regression analyses were employed, in addition to experimental design at two levels with three factors for the analysis of three responses: moisture content, particle type and agglomeration degree. The process factors were the drying air temperature (120°C and 160°C), the feed rate (1.25x10-4 and 2.5x10-4 dms -), and the concentration of sericin solutions of 10% and 30% (w/w) fed to the spray dryer. The three responses were analyzed statistically to determine the effective parameters and it was concluded that moisture content depended on three factors-drying air temperature being the dominant parameter. Particle size and shape depended mainly on feed rate and agglomeration depended on the moisture content of the product.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 4Antioxidative and Antimicrobial Screening of 19 Commercial Essential Oils in Turkey(International Society for Horticultural Science, 2009) Bulut, Çisem; Altıok, Evren; Bayraktar, Oğuz; Ülkü, SemraPlant oils have been used for wide variety purposes for many years in Turkey. These essential oils have usage in many areas such as perfumery, cosmetic, food flavoring and folkloric medicine. In the study, 19 commercial essential oils were studied by means of antibacterial and antioxidant capacity. Antibacterial test was performed against S. aureus, S. epidermidis, K. pneumoniae and E. coli using standard disc diffusion method. Penicillin, gentamicin and vancomycin discs were also included. Inhibition zones (mm) were recorded to indicate antibacterial property. Penicillin (44 mm) and vancomycin (14 mm) could inhibit only S. aureus. Except essential oils of Juniperus nana (Ardiç), Ocimum basilicum (Feslegen), Urtica dioica (Isirgan), Foeniculum vulgare (Rezene) ressential oils indicated antimicrobial activity against some of the test microorganims. The most active essential oil was found as Thymus serpyllum (Kekik). It indicated highest inhibition zones for other microorganisms among others. Antioxidant capacities were measured using photochemiluminescence (PCL) method. The highest antioxidant activity was measured for Dianthus caryophyllus (Karanfil) as 547.781 103 ug trolox/mL of oil. It was followed by Thymus serpyllum (Kekik), Lilium candidum (Zambak) and Matricaria chamomilla (Papatya). Especially, Thymus serpyllum and Dianthus caryophyllus have significant antimicrobial and antioxidant capacity therefore it could be suggested for further investigations and applications.
