Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 2Label-Free Detection of Rare Cancer Cells Using Deep Learning and Magnetic Levitation Principle(SPIE, 2021) Delikoyun, Kerem; Demir, Ali Aslan; Tekin, Hüseyin CumhurMagnetic levitation is an effective tool for separating target cells within a heterogeneous solution by utilizing density differences among cell lines. However, magnetic levitation cannot be used to identify target cells which have similar density profile as the other cells in the solution. Therefore, accuracy of cell identification can dramatically reduce. In this study, we introduce, for the first time, the use of deep learning-based object detection approach for label-free identification of rare cancer cells within levitated cells. As a result, our novel and hybrid detection strategy could be used to identify circulating tumor cells for diagnosis and prognosis of cancer. © 2021 SPIE.Book Part Citation - WoS: 13Citation - Scopus: 15Single Cell Densitometry and Weightlessness Culture of Mesenchymal Stem Cells Using Magnetic Levitation(Humana Press, 2020) Anıl İnevi, Müge; Yılmaz, Esra; Sarıgil, Öykü; Tekin, Hüseyin Cumhur; Özçivici, EnginMagnetic levitation methodology enables density-based separation of microparticles/cells and sustains cell culture in different media. Levitation process can be accomplished via negative magnetophoresis (diamagnetophoresis), where the applied magnetic force compensates gravitational acceleration and the density of the diamagnetic object (e.g., cell) determines its levitation height. Here we describe a portable, sensitive, and cost-effective technology that uses the principles of magnetic levitation to measure single cell density and cell culture under desired conditions. © 2019, Springer Science+Business Media New York.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 2Utilization of Near Ir Absorbing Gold Nanocolloids by Green Synthesis(Trans Tech Publications, 2018) Elveren, Beste; Yıldız, Ümit Hakan; Arslan Yıldız, AhuThe rapid developments in nanoscience, and its applications on biomedical areas have a large impact on drug delivery, tissue engineering, sensing, and diagnosis. Gold is widely investigated nanomaterial for the last couple of decades, since it has unique surface properties and very low toxicity to biological environment. In this work, we present a novel synthesis of gold nanoparticles (GNPs) exhibiting both visible and near-IR absorbance without agglomeration. The surface of GNPs were analyzed by routine methods and the binding kinetics were investigated by Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) Spectroscopy. The unique optical properties of near-IR asorbing GNP colloids hold promise for biological applications.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 10Citation - Scopus: 13Preparation and Characterization of Polylactide-Hydroxyapatite Biocomposites(Trans Tech Publications, 2004) Gültekin, Naz; Tıhmınlıoğlu, Funda; Çiftçioğlu, Rukiye; Çiftçioğlu, Muhsin; Harsa, Hayriye ŞebnemIn the present study, the preparation and characterization of polylactide-Hydroxyapatite(HA) composite films for biomedical applications have been studied. The effects of number of parameters such as polymer type, HA loading, surface modification and its concentration on the mechanical and microstructural properties of the composites were investigated. Poly-L-Lactide and 96/4 Poly(L-Lactide co D-Lactide) copolymer-HA composites containing 10-40 wt% HA particles have been prepared by solvent casting technique. The HA powder was synthesized by precipitation technique. Interfacial interactions between HA and polylactide polymer were modified to improve filler compatibility and mechanical properties of the composites by surface treatment of the HA with two different silane coupling agents; 3-aminopropyltriemoxysilane (AMPTES) and 3-mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane (MPTMS) at three different concentrations(0.5-2 wt%). Silane treatment indicated improvements in the mechanical properties of the composites compared to the untreated HA loaded polylactide composites. Tensile test results showed that the maximum improvement in the mechanical properties of the composites was obtained for PLA composites containing 1 wt% aminofunctional silane treated HA and 0.5-wt% mercaptopropyltrimethoxy silane treated HA for PDLA composites. Scanning electron microscopy studies also revealed better dispersion of silane treated HA particles in the polymer matrix.
