Conference Object Citation - WoS: 24Effect of pH and Hydration on the Normal and Lateral Interaction Forces Between Alumina Surfaces(2006) Polat, Mehmet; Sato, Kimiyasu; Nagaoka, Takaaki; Watari, KojiNormal and lateral interaction forces between alumina surfaces were measured using Atomic Force Microscopy-Colloid Probe Method at different pH. The normal force curves exhibit a well-defined repulsive barrier and an attractive minimum at acidic pH and the DLVO theory shows excellent agreement with the data. The normal forces are always repulsive at basic pH and the theory fails to represent the measurements. Lateral forces are almost an order of magnitude smaller in the basic solutions. These differences, which have important implications in the study of stability and rheology, are attributed to the hydration of the alumina surface at basic pH. © 2013 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Article Citation - WoS: 150Citation - Scopus: 7Correlation of Tunneling Spectra in Bi2sr2cacu2o8+? With the Resonance Spin Excitation(American Physical Society, 2001) Zasadzinski, John F.; Özyüzer, Lütfi; Miyakawa, Nobuaki; Gray, Kenneth E.; Hinks, David G.; Kendziora, Christopher A.New break-junction tunneling data are reported in Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+δ over a wide range of hole concentration from underdoped (Tc=74k) to optimal doped (Tc=95k) to overdoped (Tc=48k). The conductances exhibit sharp dips at a voltage, Ω/e, measured with respect to the superconducting gap. Clear trends are found such that the dip strength is maximum at optimal doping and that Ω scales as 4.9kTc over the entire doping range. These features link the dip to the resonance spin excitation and suggest quasiparticle interactions with this mode are important for superconductivity.Article Citation - WoS: 16Citation - Scopus: 19Nmr Studies on Natural and Synthetic Amavadin(Elsevier Ltd., 2000) Armstrong, Elaine M.; Collison, David; Ertok, Nigar; Garner, Catherine D.The stereochemistry of isolated natural product Amavadin, which contains a 1:2 complex of V(IV) with N-hydroxyimino-2,2′-dipropionic acid (HIDPAH3), and some synthetic complexes have been investigated. Amavadin was isolated from Amanita muscaria and oxidized with [NH4]2[Ce(NO3)6]. H2[Δ-V(S,S-HIDPA)2].3H2O, H2[Δ,Λ-V(S,S-HIDPA)2].3H2O and their equivalent oxidized species have been synthesized and characterized spectroscopically. A combination of COSY, NOE, 1H, 13C-NMR and CD spectroscopy have been used to prove that the isolated natural product Amavadin consists of an almost equal mixture of the Δ- and Λ-isomers of [V(S,S-HIDPA)2]2-.

In this work, replacement of styryl substituent with 2-naphthyl and 3-quinoyl gave new analogues which may have less conformational changes compared to the lead compound. Anti-proliferative tests indicated that 2-naphthyl substituted (R)-5,6-dihydro-2H-pyran-2-one has slightly better cytotoxicity than (R)-goniothalamin. To clarify the effect of 2-naphthyl substituent additional aryl substituted (R)-5,6-dihydro-2H-pyran-2-ones have been synthesized enantioselectively and tested against PC-3 and MCF-7 cell lines.Article Citation - WoS: 273Citation - Scopus: 327Transesterification of Nannochloropsis Oculata Microalga's Lipid To Biodiesel on Al2o3 Supported Cao and Mgo Catalysts(Elsevier Ltd., 2009) Umdu, Emin Selahattin; Tuncer, Mert; Şeker, ErolIn this study, we present the activities of Al2O3 supported CaO and MgO catalysts in the transesterification of lipid of yellow green microalgae, Nannochloropsis oculata, as a function of methanol amount and the CaO and MgO loadings at 50 °C. We found that pure CaO and MgO were not active and CaO/Al2O3 catalyst among all the mixed oxide catalysts showed the highest activity. Not only the basic site density but also the basic strength is important to achieve the high biodiesel yield. Biodiesel yield over 80 wt.% CaO/Al2O3 catalyst increased to 97.5% from 23% when methanol/lipid molar ratio was 30.Article Citation - WoS: 16Citation - Scopus: 21Ph- and Electro-Responsive Characteristics of Silk Fibroin-Hyaluronic Acid Polyelectrolyte Complex Membranes(Elsevier Ltd., 2009) Malay, Özge; Batıgün, Ayşegül; Bayraktar, OğuzpH-responsiveness of recently developed silk fibroin (SF) and hyaluronic acid (HA) polyelectrolyte complex (PEC) membranes and their potential use in electro-responsive drug release systems were investigated. PEC membranes were prepared within a narrow pH window (3.0-3.5) for a SF-HA weight ratio of 20 and they were characterized by Atomic Force Microscopy in addition to characterization studies previously reported by our group. Swelling kinetics of the membranes was studied for a pH window of 2.5-7.4 and cyclic swelling test was performed to determine the pH-responsiveness of the membranes. It was shown that membranes swelled more in alkaline conditions and responded to variations in pH of the medium. Electric-stimuli assisted drug permeation and release studies were performed with a custom-made diffusion cell under both passive condition and electric field applied in pulsatile fashion. The instantaneous flux raised as the current was applied and then declined when the current application was terminated, and this process was repeated on subsequent applications. SF-HA complex membranes were found promising for the electric-stimuli-sensitive release of a high molecular weight and charged model drug for a membrane-permeation controlled formulation.Article Citation - WoS: 35Citation - Scopus: 37Dirac Neutrino Masses From Generalized Supersymmetry Breaking(American Physical Society, 2008) Demir, Durmuş Ali; Everett, Lisa L.; Langacker, PaulWe demonstrate that Dirac neutrino masses in the experimentally preferred range are generated within supersymmetric gauge extensions of the standard model with a generalized supersymmetry breaking sector. If the superpotential neutrino Yukawa terms are forbidden by the gauge symmetry [such as a U(1)′], sub-eV scale effective Dirac mass terms can arise at tree level from hard supersymmetry breaking Yukawa couplings, or at one loop due to nonanalytic soft supersymmetry breaking trilinear scalar couplings. The radiative neutrino magnetic and electric dipole moments vanish at one-loop order.Article Citation - WoS: 27Citation - Scopus: 28Isolation of Various Arcobacter Species From Domestic Geese (anser Anser)(Elsevier Ltd., 2008) Atabay, Halil İbrahim; Ünver, Ahmet; Şahin, Mitat; Otlu, Salih; Elmalı, Mehmet; Yaman, HilmiIn this study, the prevalence and distribution of various Arcobacter spp. were investigated in samples taken from the cloacae of healthy domestic geese raised in Turkey. A membrane filtration technique with a non-selective blood agar was employed after enrichment in Arcobacter enrichment broth (AEB) to isolate a wide range of Arcobacter spp. In addition, the isolates were characterized phenotypically and identified at species level using a multiplex-PCR assay. A total of 90 cloacal swab samples taken from geese, collected on three farms (18, 25, 47 samples, respectively), were examined. Of the samples examined, 16 (18%) were found positive for Arcobacter. One Arcobacter species was isolated from each bird. Of the 16 Arcobacter isolates, 7 (44%), 7 (44%) and 2 (12.5%) were identified by m-PCR as A. cryaerophilus, A. skirrowii and A. butzleri, respectively. The present study indicates that domestic geese can harbour a variety of Arcobacter spp. in their cloacae. The presence of Arcobacter in geese may be of significance as reservoirs in their dissemination. Detailed research is needed for better understanding of the epidemiology and zoonotic potential of this emerging pathogen.Article Citation - WoS: 262Citation - Scopus: 286Dye Adsorption Behavior of Luffa Cylindrica Fibers(Elsevier Ltd., 2008) Demir, Hasan; Top, Ayben; Balköse, Devrim; Ülkü, SemraUsing natural Luffa cylindrica fibers as adsorbent removal of methylene blue dye from aqueous solutions at different temperatures and dye concentrations was investigated in this study. Thermodynamics and kinetics of adsorption were also investigated. The adsorption isotherms could be well defined with Langmuir model instead of Freundlich model. The thermodynamic parameters of methylene blue (MB) adsorption indicated that the adsorption is exothermic and spontaneous. The average MB adsorption capacity was found out as 49 mg/g and average BET surface area of fibers was calculated as 123 m2/g.Article Citation - WoS: 120Citation - Scopus: 135Authentication of Pomegranate Juice Concentrate Using Ftir Spectroscopy and Chemometrics(Elsevier Ltd., 2008) Vardin, Hasan; Tay, Abdullatif; Özen, Fatma Banu; Mauer, LisaFourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and chemometric techniques were used to detect the adulteration of pomegranate juice concentrate (PJC) with grape juice concentrate (GJC). The main differences between PJC and GJC infrared spectra occurred in the 1780-1685 cm-1 region, which corresponds to C{double bond, long}O stretching. Principal component analysis of the spectra was used to: (1) differentiate pure PJC and GJC samples and (2) classify adulterated (containing 2-14% vol/vol GJC) and pure PJC samples. Two principal components explained 99% of the variability in each of these applications. Partial least square analysis of the spectra resulted in prediction of the GJC adulterant concentration in PJC with a correlation coefficient, R2, of 0.9751. Partial least square analysis of spectra could also predict % titratable acidity and total solids in PJC with correlation coefficients of 0.9114 and 0.9916, respectively. Therefore, FTIR and chemometrics provide a useful approach for authenticating pomegranate juice concentrate.
