    Tissue Engineering Applications of Marine-Based Materials
    (Springer, 2022) Polat, Hürriyet; Zeybek, Nuket; Polat, Mehmet
    Tissue engineering is a promising approach in replacing or improving tissues lost or has become nonviable due to disease or trauma by the use of scaffold materials by combining engineering and biochemical/physicochemical methods. Its purpose is to create suitable matrices that support cell differentiation and proliferation toward the formation of new and functional tissue. Marine-based natural compounds are potential scaffold feedstock material in tissue engineering owing to their biocompatibility and biodegradability while providing excellent biochemical/physicochemical properties. Numerous application areas and various fabrication routes techniques described in the literature attest to the importance of these materials in tissue regeneration. This review has been carried to merge the information from a large number of studies on the marine-based scaffold materials in tissue engineering into a coherent summary. © The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2022.

    Uçucu kül ve doğal zeolitin beraber kullanılarak borun atık sulardan uzaklaştırılması
    (2008) Polat, Hürriyet; Polat, Mehmet; Şekeroğlu, Koray
    Bu proje kapsamında, Yeniköy, Kemerköy, Soma ve Yatağan termik santrallerinden alınan uçucu küllerin, sıcaklık, katı / sıvı oranı ve başlangıç konsantrasyonu gibi parametler kullanılarak bor adsorpsiyon kapasiteleri incelenmiştir. Bor adsorpsiyon deneyleri laboratuvarda hazırlanan simültane sular (10, 25, 50, 100 ve 300 ppm Bor) ve Kızıldere (Denizli) jeotermal tesislerinden (25-30 ppm Bor) alınan borlu sularla yapılmıştır. Yapılan “batch” deneylere dayanarak, uçucu küllerin boru adsopladığı ve özellikle yüzey alanı en geniş olan Yeniköy külü yeterli zaman ve yüzey alanı sağlandığında %99 ‘a varan adsorpsiyon miktarına ulaştığı gözlenmiştir. Tüm küllerin deney sonuçları tek katmanlı adsorpsiyonu belirten “Langmuir” izotermine ve Kaydırılmış İkinci Mertebe parametresine daha uygun olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Yapılan sıcaklık çalışmalarında, Yeniköy ve Kemerköy külleriyle 25o C, 45o C ve 65o C koşullarında yapılan deneylerin verileri kullanılarak, o ΔH ,o ΔG , o ΔS değerleri hesaplanmıştır. Sıcaklıkla azalan adsorpsiyon kapasitesi ve negatif o ΔH değerleri, ekzotermik adsorpsiyon olduğunu belirtmektedir. Aynı zamanda -40,0 kJ / mol’ün altında çıkan (-52,89 ve -48,55 kJ / mol) entalpi ( o ΔH ) değerleri kimyasal adsorpsiyon olduğunu belirtmektedir. Soma ve Yatağan külleri için de Langmuir izotermlerinin uygun olması kimyasal bir adsorpsiyon olduğunu önermektedir.

    Effect of Some Physical, and Chemical Variables on Flocculation and Sediment Behaviour
    (A.A. Balkema Publishers, 2000) Polat, Hürriyet; Polat, Mehmet; İpekoğlu, Üner
    Effect 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.

    Recent Advances in Chitosan-Based Systems for Delivery of Anticancer Drugs
    (Springer, 2020) Polat, Mehmet; Polat, Hürriyet
    Problems in transporting drug molecules to tumor sites in required dose or constitution lead to low efficacy and significant side effects. Shielding the drug molecules in micelles, liposomes, or nanoparticles is a major line of investigation to improve chemotherapeutic treatment. Though compatibility for proper envelopment of the drug and timely release at the tumor site are required of such a carrier, protecting its own physicochemical and morphological integrity during transport is another precondition. Because of its superior polymerization capability, biocompatibility, pH dependence, and charging characteristics, chitosan has been in the forefront of potential drug carriers. Numerous synthesis routes for chitosan-based nanocarriers have been suggested to the extent that a search of the literature published since 2000 with the keywords “novel + nano + chitosan” in the title results in 527 articles, indicating the bewildering quality and quantity of the new information. This review was carried out not only to peruse this large amount of work on chitosan-based anticancer drug delivery but also to extract manageable patterns from numerous synthesis routes. The main conclusion is that the synthesis methods suggested in literature can be combined into two main routes, and the degree of hydrophobicity of the drug determines which route should be followed. © Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2019.

    Capacity and Mechanism of Phenol Adsorption on Lignite
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2006) Polat, Hürriyet; Molva, Murat; Polat, Mehmet
    A raw lignitic coal from Soma, Turkey was investigated to determine its potential as an adsorbent for phenol removal from wastewaters. Kinetic batch tests demonstrated that phenol could be completely removed from solution given sufficient solids loading and reaction time. The adsorption capacity of 10 mg/g obtained with the lignite is low compared to those achievable with activated carbons (around 300 mg/g). However, when normalized for the surface area, the adsorption capacity was much larger for the lignite (1.3 mg/m2) than that generally observed with activated carbons (0.05-0.3 mg/m2). Hydrogen-bonding of the phenolic -OH with the oxygen sites on the lignite surface is the most likely mechanism for adsorption. Though water molecules also have affinity for the same oxygen sites, lateral benzene ring interactions make phenol adsorption energetically more favorable. Since phenol molecules adsorbed in this fashion would project their benzene rings into solution, formation of a second layer through the action of the dispersive π-π interactions between the benzene rings is very likely. Residual water quality with respect to major elements and heavy metals was within acceptable limits defined by the ASTM standards. Dissolution of organic matter from the lignite was also observed to be negligible.

    Physical and Chemical Interactions in Coal Flotation
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2003) Polat, Mehmet; Polat, Hürriyet; Chander, Subhash
    Coal flotation is a complex process involving several phases (particles, oil droplets and air bubbles). These phases simultaneously interact with each other and with other species such as the molecules of a promoting reagent and dissolved ions in water. The physical and chemical interactions determine the outcome of the flotation process. Physical and chemical interactions between fine coal particles could lead to aggregation, especially for high rank coals. Non-selective particle aggregation could be said to be the main reason for the selectivity problems in coal flotation. It should be addressed by physical (conditioning) or chemical (promoters) pretreatment before or during flotation. Although the interactions between the oil droplets and coal particles are actually favored, stabilization of the oil droplets by small amounts of fine hydrophobic particles may lead to a decrease in selectivity and an increase in oil consumption. These problems could be remedied by use of promoters that modify the coal surface for suitable particle-particle, droplet-particle and particle-bubble contact while emulsifying the oil droplets. The role of promoters may be different for different types of coals, however. They could be employed as modifiers to increase the hydrophobicity of low rank coals whereas their main role might be emulsification and aggregation control for high rank coals. In this paper, a detailed description of the various phases in coal flotation, their physical and chemical interactions with each other in the flotation pulp, the major parameters that affect these interactions and how these interactions, in turn, influence the flotation process are discussed.
