Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Fabrication and in Vitro Evaluation of Thermally Cross-Linked Gelatin Nanofibers for Drug Delivery Applications(Taylor & Francis, 2022) Mete, Derya; Mete, Derya; Göktaş, Gözde; Şanlı Mohamed, Gülşah; Şanlı Mohamed, Gülşah; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology; 04.01. Department of Chemistry; 04. Faculty of ScienceIn this study, four different nanofibers consisting of gelatin (Gel), doxorubicin (DOX) with gel (DOX@Gel), a composite of gel with poly(ethylene glycol) (PEGylated-gel), and DOX@PEGylated-gel were fabricated. Subsequently, the nanofibers were thermally cross-linked in order to offer a stable and biocompatible alternative for the biological applications of nanofibers such as drug delivery and tissue engineering. Nanofibers were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, Fourier Transform-Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR), and confocal microscopy. The formation of smooth, continuous, and uniform nanofibers was observed and the addition of PEG resulted in an increase whereas the incorporation of DOX into nanofibers had no significant change in the diameter of nanofibers. Crosslinking also enlarged the diameter of all nanofibers and the most dramatic increase was observed 53% by DOX@PEGylated-gel. Afterward, the biological performance of the nanofibers was investigated by drug release profile, cytotoxicity on A549 cell line as well as antimicrobial activity with E. coli and S. aureus. The results indicate an enhanced drug release profile, moderate antimicrobial activity, and reasonable cytotoxic efficiency for thermally cross-linked nanofibers compared to uncross-linked nanofibers.Article Citation - WoS: 90Citation - Scopus: 101A Rapid Atr-Ftir Spectroscopic Method for Classification of Gelatin Gummy Candies in Relation To the Gelatin Source(Elsevier, 2019) Çebi, Nur; Özdemir, Durmuş; Doğan, Canan Ekinci; Ekin Meşe, Ayten; Özdemir, Durmuş; Arıcı, Muhammet; Sağdıç, Osman; 04.01. Department of Chemistry; 04. Faculty of Science; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyGelatin is widely used in gummy candies because of its unique functional properties. Generally, porcine and bovine gelatins are used in the food industry. FTIR-ATR combined with chemometrics analysis such as hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA) (OPUS Version 7.2 software), principal component analysis (PCA) (OPUS Version 7.2 software) and partial least squares-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) (Matlab R2017b) were used for classification and discrimination of gelatin gummy candies related to their gelatin source. The spectral region between 1734 and 1528 cm(-1) was selected for chemometric analysis. The potential of FTIR spectroscopy for determination of bovine and porcine source in gummy candies was examined and validated by a real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method. Twenty commercial samples were tested by developed ATR-FTIR methodology and RT-PCR technique, mutually confirming and supporting results were obtained. Gummy candies were classified and discriminated in relation to the bovine or porcine source of gelatin with 100% success without any sample preparation using FTIR-ATR technique.
