Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2A Novel Approach Utilizing Rapid Thin-Film Microextraction Method for Salivary Metabolomics Studies in Lung Cancer Diagnosis(Elsevier, 2024) Pelit, Fusun; Erbas, Ilknur; Ozupek, Nazli Mert; Gul, Merve; Sakrak, Esra; Ocakoglu, Kasim; Goksel, Ozlem; Özdemir, DurmuşThis study investigated the potential of targeted salivary metabolomics as a convenient diagnostic tool for lung cancer (LC), utilizing a rapid TFME-based method. It specifically examines TFME blades modified with SiO2 nanoparticles, which were produced using a custom-made coating system. Validation of the metabolite biomarker analysis was performed by these blades using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectroscopy (LCMS/MS). The extraction efficiencies of SiO2 nanoparticle/polyacrylonitrile (PAN) composite-coated blades were compared for 18 metabolites. Response surface methodology (RSM) was used to optimize the analysis conditions. Linear calibration plots were obtained for all metabolites at concentrations between 0.025 to 4.0 mu g/mL in the presence of internal standard, with correlation coefficients (R-2) ranging from 0.9975 to 0.9841. The limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantitation (LOQ) were in the range of 0.014 to 0.97 mu g mL(-1) and 0.046 to 3.20 mu gmL(-1), respectively. The %RSD values for all analytes were within the acceptable range (less than 20 %) for the proposed method. The method was applied to the saliva samples of 40 patients with LC and 38 healthy controls. The efficacy of metabolites for LC diagnosis was determined by in silico methods and the results reveal that phenylalanine and purine metabolism metabolites (e.g., hypoxanthine) are of great importance for LC diagnosis. Furthermore, potentially significant biomarker analysis results from the ROC curve data reveal that proline, hypoxanthine, and phenylalanine were identified as potential biomarkers for LC diagnosis.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 1Immunomodulatory Mechanisms of Astragalus Saponins(Wiley, 2021) Yakuboğulları, Nilgün; Çağır, Ali; Bedir, Erdal; Sağ, DuyguArticle Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 5Physically Unclonable Security Patterns Created by Electrospinning, and Authenticated by Two-Step Validation Method(IOP Publishing, 2022) Taşcıoğlu, Didem; Atçı, Arda; Sevim Ünlütürk, Seçil; Özçelik, SerdarCounterfeiting is a growing economic and social problem. For anticounterfeiting, random and inimitable droplet/fiber patterns were created by the electrospinning method as security tags that are detectable under UV light but invisible in daylight. To check the authenticity of the original security patterns created; images were collected with a simple smartphone microscope and a database of the recorded original patterns was created. The originality of the random patterns was checked by comparing them with the patterns recorded in the database. In addition, the spectral signature of the patterns in the droplet/fiber network was obtained with a simple and hand-held spectrometer. Thus, by reading the spectral signature from the pattern, the spectral information of the photoluminescent nanoparticles was verified and thus a second-step verification was established. In this way, anticounterfeiting technology that combines ink formula, unclonable security pattern creation and two-level verification is developed.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Mn2+ Ions Incorporated Into Znsxse1-X Colloidal Quantum Dots: Controlling Size and Composition of Nanoalloys and Regulating Magnetic Dipolar Interactions(IOP Publishing, 2021) Ünlütürk, Seçil Sevim; Akdoğan, Yaşar; Özçelik, SerdarA facile synthesis method is introduced how to prepare magnetically active ultraviolet emitting manganese ions incorporated into ZnSxSe1-x colloidal quantum dot (nanoalloy) at 110 degrees C in aqueous solutions. The reaction time is the main factor to control the hydrodynamic size from 3 to 10 nm and the precursor ratio is significant to tune the alloy composition. ZnS shell layer on the ZnSxSe1-x core was grown to passivate environmental effects. The nanoalloy has ultraviolet emission at 380 nm having a lifetime of 80 ns and 7% quantum yield. The incorporation of Mn2+ ions into the nanoalloys induced magnetic activity but did not modify the structure and photophysical properties of the nanoalloys. Colloidal and powdery samples were prepared and analyzed by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy. In the colloidal dispersions, EPR spectra showed hyperfine line splitting regardless of the Mn2+ ion fractions, up to 6%, indicating that Mn2+ ions incorporated into the nanoalloys were isolated. EPR signals of the powdery samples were broadened when the fraction of Mn2+ ions was higher than 0.1%. The EPR spectra were simulated to reveal the locations and interactions of Mn2+ ions. The simulations suggest that the Mn2+ ions are located on the nanoalloy surfaces. These findings infer that the magnetic dipolar interactions are regulated by the initial mole ratio of Mn/Zn and the physical state of the nanoalloys adjusted by preparation methods.Article Citation - WoS: 2Evaluation of Malassezia Species by Fourier Transform Infrared (ft-Ir) Spectroscopy(Ankara Microbiology Society, 2011) Ergin, Çağrı; Vuran, M. Emre; Gök, Yaşar; Özdemir, Durmuş; Karaarslan, Aydın; Kaleli, İlnur; Çon, Ahmet HilmiMalassezia species which are lipophilic exobasidiomycetes fungi, have been accepted as members of normal cutaneous flora as well as causative agent of certain skin diseases. In routine microbiology laboratory, species identification based on phenotypic characters may not yield identical results with taxonomic studies. Lipophilic and lipid-dependent Malassezia yeasts require lipid-enriched complex media. For this reason, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy analysis focused on lipid window may be useful for identification of Malassezia species. In this study, 10 different standard Malassezia species (M.dermatis CBS 9145, M.furfur CBS 7019, M.japonica CBS 9432, M.globosa CBS 7966, M.nana CBS 9561, M.obtusa CBS 7876, M.pachydermatis CBS 1879, M.slooffiae CBS 7956, M.sympodialis CBS 7222 and M.yamatoensis CBS 9725) which are human pathogens, have been analyzed by FT-IR spectroscopy following standard cultivation onto modified Dixon agar medium. Results showed that two main groups (M1; M.globosa, Robtusa, M.sympodialis, M.dermatis, M.pachydermatis vs, M2; M.furfur, M.japonica, M.nana, M.slooffiae, M.yamatoensis) were discriminated by whole spectra analysis. M.obtusa in M1 by 1686-1606 cm(-1) wavenumber ranges and M.japonicum in M2 by 2993-2812 cm(-1) wavenumber ranges were identified with low level discrimination power. Discriminatory areas for species differentiation of M1 members as M.sympodialis, M.globosa and M.pachydermatis and M2 members as M.furfur and M.yamatoensis could not be identified. Several spectral windows analysis results revealed that FT-IR spectroscopy was not sufficient for species identification of culture grown Malassezia species.Conference Object Optimization of Mass Spectrometric Ionisation Efficiency Data(Springer Verlag, 1997) Özgen, İsmet Tamerkan; Altungöz, Oya; Salih, B.; Vandeginste, B. G. M.A new method is developed and tested to find out the excited electronic and vibrational energy levels (fine structure) of molecules from mass spectrometric ionisation efficiency data which were obtained by a conventional mass spectrometer ion source having normal electron energy distribution. Electrons emitted in a conventional mass spectrometer ion source are not monoenergetic, therefore, evaluation of Ionisation Potentials (IF) and Appearance Potentials (AP) from experimental data creates some problems. This is even worse in the evaluation of Fine Structure (excited electronic and vibrational energy levels) from ionisation efficiency data [1]. This is overcome either by using specially designed monoenergetic ion sources which have their own problems (manufacture of special design, difficulty of operation, too much decrease of ion current), or by eliminating disturbing effects in the ionisation efficiency data by some deconvolution techniques [2,4,5,6,7,9]. In this study attempts were made to eliminate the deteriorating effects (mainly arising from electron energy distribution and noise) in the ionisation efficiency data by a deconvolution technique. The technique was applied to the ionisation efficiency data of molecular nitrogen,oxygen and methylammine and its fragment and interesting results were obtained.Conference Object Effect of Some Physical, and Chemical Variables on Flocculation and Sediment Behaviour(A.A. Balkema Publishers, 2000) Polat, Hürriyet; Polat, Mehmet; İpekoğlu, ÜnerEffect of some chemical and physical variables on the settling rate, final sediment height, sediment viscosity and supernatant turbidity of a clay sample was studied using various polyacrylamide type flocculants. Increasing flocculant concentration significantly increased both the settling rate and sediment viscosity. More importantly, changes in the final sediment, height, hence the packing density, was minimal for all the conditions tested once the sediment was allowed to consolidate. Also, the mode of addition of the polymer, at once or continuous, did not seem to affect any of the parameters measured. Conditioning time seemed to alter the settling rate at low polymer concentrations, but had no effect at high polymer concentrations. However, increasing the conditioning time caused a decrease in the sediment viscosity. Different types of the polyacrylimides generated different settling rates at a given concentration, but the final sediment height was nearly independent of polymer type.Conference Object Labeling of Gly-Gly With Technetium-99m and the Assessment of It's Radiopharmaceutical Potential(Springer Verlag, 2001) Taner, M.S.; Özdemir, Durmuş; Köseoğlu, K.; Argon, M.; Dirlik, A.; Duman, Y.[No abstract available]Conference Object Functionalization of Quantum Dot-Plasmid Dna Conjugate With a Cell-Penetrating Protein(John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2015) Uğurlu, O.; Evran, S.; Doğan, L.
