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]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.

This study focuses on the near infrared (NIR) spectroscopic determination of adulteration of olive oil by vegetable oils using multivariate calibration. The binary, ternary and quaternary mixtures of olive, soybean, cotton, corn, canola and sunflower oils were prepared using a random design. The absorbance spectra of these synthetic samples were measured by a near infrared (NIR) spectrometer. A genetic algorithm-based variable selection algorithm, coupled with an inverse least squares multivariate calibration method (GILS) was used to build calibration models for possible adulterants and olive oil in the adulterated mixtures The correlation coefficients of actual versus predicted concentrations resulting from multivariate calibration models for the different oils were between 0 90 and 0.99 The results demonstrated that NIR spectroscopy in conjunction with the GILS method makes it possible to determine the adulteration of olive oils regardless of adulterant vegetable oils over a wide range of concentrations.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Transition-Metal Direct C-H Arylation of Thiophene in Aqueous Media Via Potassium Peroxymonosulfate(John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2019) Özenler, Sezer; Kaya, Hakan; Elmacı, Nuran; Yıldız, Ümit HakanThis study covers the use of potassium peroxymonosulfate (PPS) which, is a mild and inexpensive catalyst, for direct coupling of C-H/C-H for water soluble thiophene. The 3-(4-methyl-3 '- thienyloxy)propyltriethylammonium bromide (M1) has been selected as model monomer that reacted PPS in 2.0, 0.20 and 0.020 monomer to PPS ratio. The reaction has been monitored via NMR spectroscopy revealing the monomer consumption and formation of dimers to tetramers as well as completion of reaction within 15 minutes. Resultant product is easily collected without tedious work up steps. The computational calculation has optimized the regularity of the coupling as head to tail, tail to tail, head to tail (HT-TT-HT) for tetramer. The regularity of tetramer which is further satisfied via NMR analysis showing emergence of new peaks at 3.56 and 4.48. The shifts in the UV maximum of reactive species have been monitored by absorbance spectroscopy showing time dependent red shift corresponds to growing from monomer to tetramers. The reaction has self-stopped due to low solubility of moderate condensates (higher than trimer), however further experiments have performed in water-organic mixtures showed great promises to obtain higher condensates.Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 8Enhanced Spontaneous Emission Rate in a Low-Q Hybrid Photonic-Plasmonic Nanoresonator(American Chemical Society, 2019) Gökbulut, Belkıs; İnanç, Arda; Topçu, Gökhan; Ünlütürk, Seçil Sevim; Özçelik, Serdar; Demir, Mustafa Muammer; İnci, Mehmet NaciIn this paper, CdTe quantum dots (QDs)-doped single electrospun polymer nanofibers are partially coated with gold nanoparticles to form distinct hybrid photonic-plasmonic nanoresonators to investigate the critical role of the cavity-confined hybrid mode on the modification of the spontaneous emission dynamics of the fluorescent emitters in low-Q photonic cavities. A total enhancement factor of 11.2 is measured via a time-resolved experimental technique, which shows that there is an increase of about three times in the spontaneous emission rate for the QDs-doped gold nanoparticle-decorated nanofibers as they are compared with those uncoated ones. The physical mechanism affecting the spontaneous emission rate of the encapsulated QDs in such a hybrid photonic-plasmonic nanoresonator is explained to be due to regeneration of the mode field in the nanofiber cavity upon the interaction of the dipoles with the surface plasmons of distinctive gold nanoparticles that surround the outer surface of the nanofiber.Article Citation - WoS: 39Citation - Scopus: 37Flow-Through Colorimetric Assay for Detection of Nucleic Acids in Plasma(Elsevier, 2019) Ammanath, Gopal; Yeasmi, Sanjida; Srinivasulu, Yuvasri; Vats, Mukti; Cheema, Jamal Ahmed; Nabilah, Fairuz; Liedberg, Bo; Yıldız, Ümit HakanA flow-through colorimetric assay for detection of nucleic acids in plasma is reported. The proposed assay features an array of four polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes impregnated with cationic poly (3-alkoxy-4-methylthiophene) (PT) as an optical reporter. The sensing strategy is based on monitoring the changes in optical properties of PT, upon complexation with target nucleic acids in the presence and in the absence of their corresponding complementary peptide nucleic acids (PNAs). As a proof of concept, the proposed methodology is validated using two biomarkers; lung cancer associated microRNA (mir21) and hepatitis B virus DNA (HBV-DNA). The flow-through colorimetric assay enabled detection of mir21 and HBV-DNA in plasma without requiring tedious sample pre-treatment and clean up protocols. Colorimetric responses for mir21 and HBV-DNA were obtained at nanomolar concentrations over five orders of magnitudes (from 1 nM to 10 mu M), with a limit of detection of -0.6 nM and -2 nM in DI water and plasma, respectively. A logic gate system was developed to utilize the colorimetric assay responses as inputs for discrimination of mir21 and HBV-DNA and subsequently to obtain a profile of nucleic acids in samples that exceed respective clinical threshold limits, thereby enabling rapid and point of care (POC) disease diagnosis. Furthermore, the proposed methodology can be utilized for detection of a large number of nucleic acids in plasma by extending the array of PT impregnated membranes incorporated with their corresponding complementary PNAs.

The single chain Pdot formation relies on a simple process which is a rapid nanophase separation between CPE solution of ethylene glycol and water. Pdots show narrow monodisperse size distribution with a 3.6 nm in diameter exhibiting high brightness and excellent colloidal and optical stability. It has been demonstrated that photoluminescent Pdots provide selective nuclear translocation to hepatocellular carcinoma cells as compared to healthy liver cells. The Pdot labeling effectively discriminates cancer cells in the coculture media. Pdots hold great promise as a luminescent probe to diagnose cancer cells in histology and may guide surgeons during operations to precisely separate out cancerous tissue due to augmented fluorescence brightness.Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 5Synthesis and Structures of 1,3,2,4,5-Diazatriborolidines(Elsevier, 2019) Fırıncı, Erkan; Sevinçek, Resul; Bursalı, Banu; Özgener, Hüseyin; Burgaz, Osman; Şen, Ceren; Şahin, YükselThe derivatives of diazatriborolidine are a class of 5-membered heterocyclic compounds containing a ring with two nitrogen atoms and three boron atoms. The 1,3,2,4,5-diazatriborolidine derivatives were synthesized from 1,2-bis(N-lithium-arylamino) diborane(4) and dichloro-dimethylaminoborane with high yield. The structures of these new derivatives were determined using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. The molecular structures of 3a, 3b, 3d, 4b and 4c were determined using single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Their structural features were discussed and compared with similar diazatriborolidines. In addition, the enthalpy of formation of B and N atoms containing five membered heterocycles were calculated theoretically for the first time. Also, an easy and efficient synthesis route has been reported for preparation of 1,3,2,4,5-diazatriborolidine derivatives.
