Article Ranking Circularity Levels in Industrial Parks: A Holistic Approach Incorporating Environmental, Economic and Social Indicators(Springer, 2025) Berk, I.; Ediger, V.Ş.; Öztürk, E.B.; Uctug, F.G.; Kucuker, M.A.; Inan, A.; Aktuna, G.B.This study introduces a circularity ranking system at the meso-level, specifically targeting industrial parks, through the development of the Circular Economy Sustainability Index (CESI). The index comprises five economic-environmental indicators: energy intensity, emission intensity, water intensity, waste intensity, and recycling ratio, as well as a social indicator as a sixth dimension. We utilize CESI to evaluate the circular economy performance of 22 manufacturing firms in the Adana Hacı Sabancı Organized Industrial Zone (AOSB). AOSB, one of the most prominent industrial parks in Türkiye, serves as an excellent case study to assess companies’ circularity performance and identify areas for improvement in the country’s green industrial transformation endeavor. Our findings reveal that waste and recycling indicators are pivotal in determining circularity, contributing 34.6% to the overall score, while the social indicator adds another 16.3%. These results underscore the significance of effective waste management and social responsibility in enhancing circularity. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Review Citation - Scopus: 121Natural and Synthetic Nanovectors for Cancer Therapy(Ivyspring International Publisher, 2023) Eftekhari, Aziz; Kryschi, Carola; Pamies, David; Ahmadian, Elham; Janas, Dawid; Davaran, Soodabeh; Khalilov, Rovshan; Güleç, ŞükrüNanomaterials have been extensively studied in cancer therapy as vectors that may improve drug delivery. Such vectors not only bring numerous advantages such as stability, biocompatibility, and cellular uptake but have also been shown to overcome some cancer-related resistances. Nanocarrier can deliver the drug more precisely to the specific organ while improving its pharmacokinetics, thereby avoiding secondary adverse effects on the not target tissue. Between these nanovectors, diverse material types can be discerned, such as liposomes, dendrimers, carbon nanostructures, nanoparticles, nanowires, etc., each of which offers different opportunities for cancer therapy. In this review, a broad spectrum of nanovectors is analyzed for application in multimodal cancer therapy and diagnostics in terms of mode of action and pharmacokinetics. Advantages and inconveniences of promising nanovectors, including gold nanostructures, SPIONs, semiconducting quantum dots, various nanostructures, phospholipid-based liposomes, dendrimers, polymeric micelles, extracellular and exome vesicles are summarized. The article is concluded with a future outlook on this promising field. © The author(s).
