    The changes in the serum, liver, kidney protein and genomic DNA profiles in rats treated with 7,12-Dimethylbenz(A) anthracene and Plantago major L.
    (RJPBCS, 2014-01) Berber, İsmet; Ekin, Suat; Levent, Abdulkadir; Oto, Gökhan;
    In the study, the changes in the serum, liver, kidney protein and genomic DNA profiles in Wistar albino rats administrated to 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene (DMBA) and Plantagomajor L. were investigated. SDS-PAGE profiling of the serum proteins showed that the levels of two proteins molecular weighing 140.8 kDa and 46.8 kDa were significantly lower on the 0th day of treatment than on the 60th day of application in the groups. Furthermore, two proteins (34.5 and 22.3 kDa) were solely present in DMBA-treated liver cell lysates. On the contrary, the kidney protein profiles did not show significant banding variations in groups. Genomic DNA analysis also confirmed that DNA extracted from liver and kidney cells did not fragment in any of the groups after the 60th study day. The proteins 34.5 and 22.3 kDa in liver cell lysates at the 60th day in DMBA-treated group could be extra-prognostic indicators for severe DMBA toxicity.

    Silica gel-immobilized 5-aminoisophthalohydrazide: A novel sorbent for solid phase extraction of Cu, Zn and Pb from natural water samples
    (Wiley Online Library, 2020-03-11) Aydın, Funda; Çakmak, Reşit; Levent, Abdulkadir; Soylak, Mustafa
    A novel silica sorbent, silica gel‐immobilized 5‐aminoisophthalohydrazide (SiO2‐APH), was prepared by the condensation of 3‐chloropropyl‐functionalized silica gel with 5‐aminoisophthalohydrazide (APH) derived from dimethyl 5‐aminoisophthalate as a starting material and used for separation and preconcentration of Cu, Zn, and Pb metals in water samples using Flame Atomic Absorption Spectrometry (FAAS). The characterization of the new sorbent was carried out by Elemental Analysis, Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). Important analytical parameters including as pH, amount of sorbent, type and amount of eluting solvent, sample volume, vortex and ultrasonic bath time, matrix ions that effect the developed SiO2‐APH‐solid phase extraction (SPE) method were investigated and optimum parameters were detected. Recoveries of examined metals were obtained as 98% for Cu and Pb and 101% for Zn. The relative standard deviation (RSD, n = 8) of Cu, Zn and Pb metals were 3.2, 2.8 and 1.6%, respectively. Limit of detections (LODs) (n = 10) were found as 2.7 μg L−1 for Cu, 7.4 μg L−1 for Zn and 3.5 μg L−1 for Pb μg L−1. The accuracy of the new method was assessed by analyzing of TMDA‐51.4 and TMDA‐70.2 certified reference materials. The results obtained for metals were in a good agreement with certified values. Addition/recovery test was applied to the real well, river, dam and stream water samples to check the accuracy of the method. The results showed that the developed SiO2‐APH‐SPE method can be effectively used as an alternative method for determination of Cu, Zn, and Pb metals in water samples.

    (Wiley Online Library, 2015-03-20) Levent, Abdulkadir; Altun, Ahmet; Taş, Süleyman; Yardım, Yavuz; Şentürk, Zühre
    In this paper, an electrochemical application of bismuth‐film electrode (BiFE) fabricated via ex‐situ electrodeposition onto a glassy carbon electrode for testosterone determination was investigated in aqueous and aqueous/surfactant solutions. In cyclic voltammetry, the compound showed one irreversible and adsorption‐controlled reduction peak. The BiFE revealed good linear response in the examined concentration range of 1 to 45 nmol L−1 testosterone in BrittonRobinson buffer, pH 5.0 containing 3 mmol L−1 cetyltrimethylammonium bromide. The limit of detection was 0.3 nmol L−1 (0.09 ng mL−1). Finally, the BiFE was satisfactorily applied for quantitation of testosterone in both pharmaceutical (oil‐based ampoule) and biological (human urine) samples.

    Hidrojen bağlı 8OBA/ADA ikili kompleks sıvı kristalin termal ve mikroyapısal özellikleri
    (Iğdır Üniversitesi, 2019-06-01) Sünkür, Murat; Okumuş, Mustafa
    Bu çalışmada, mezojenik 4-oktiloksi benzoik asit (8OBA) ve mezojenik olmayan adipik asit (ADA)’in ikili kompleksinden sentezlenen yeni bir sıvı kristalin termal özellikleri diferansiyel taramalı kalorimetre (DSC) ve mikroyapı özellikleri polarize optik mikroskop (POM) ile incelenmiştir. 8OBA ve ADA arasında hidrojen bağının oluştuğu zayıflatılmış toplam yansıma-kızılötesi spektroskopisi (ATR-IR) ile doğrulanmıştır. Ayrıca, 8OBA/ADA sıvı kristal kompleksinin kimyasal yapısı 1H-NMR çalışmasıyla incelenmiştir. DSC ve POM sonuçları sentezlenen yeni sıvı kristal kompleksin sıvı kristalik özellikler sergilediğini göstermektedir. 8OBA/ADA ikili kompleksi, DSC ile sürekli ısıtma ve soğutma esnasında faz geçiş pikleri göstermektedir. Soğutma esnasında gözlenen smektik C fazı sürekli ısıtma esnasında gözlenmemiştir. Sürekli ısıtma esnasında elde edilen faz geçiş sıcaklık ve entalpi değişim değerleri, sürekli soğutma esnasında elde edilen faz geçiş sıcaklık ve entalpi değişim değerlerinden daha yüksek, fakat nematik alan daha düşüktür. Ayrıca bu değerlerin ısıtma oranına bağlılığı da araştırılmıştır. Isıtma oranı arttıkça faz geçiş sıcaklıklarının arttığı fakat entalpi değerlerinin azaldığı gözlemlenmiştir. DSC ile ölçülen faz geçiş sıcaklık değerlerinin POM ile ölçülen faz geçiş sıcaklık değerleri ile yaklaşık aynı olduğu görülmüştür. 8OBA/ADA sıvı kristal kompleksin faz geçişleri için faz geçiş aktivasyon enerjileri hesaplanmıştır ve elde edilen değerler, faz sırasına göre faz geçiş aktivasyon enerjilerinin arttığını göstermiştir. Bu sonuç da 8OBA/ADA sıvı kristal kompleksin faz geçişlerinin sürekli ısıtma esnasında düzenli olarak gerçekleştiğini göstermektedir.

    Design, preparation and application of a Pirkle-type chiral stationary phase for enantioseparation of some racemic organic acids and molecular dynamics studies
    (ACG Publications, 2017-11) Çakmak, Reşit; Ercan, Selami; Sünkür, Murat; Yılmaz, Hayrullah; Topal, Giray
    This study consists of two parts. In the first part of the study; a Pirkle-type chiral stationary phase was prepared by synthesizing an aromatic amine derivative of (R)-2-amino-1-butanol as a chiral selector and binding to L-tyrosine-modified cyanogen bromide (CNBr)-activated Sepharose 4B and then, packed into the separation column. The chromatographic performance of the separation column was evaluated with racemic mandelic acid and 2-phenylpropionic acid by using phosphate buffers at three different pHs as mobile phase. In the resolution processes, the prepared solutions were loaded onto the separation column at two different concentrations and at three different pHs for each racemic organic acid, separately. Enantiomeric excess (ee%) of the eluates was determined on CHIRALPAK AD-H chiral analytical column by HPLC. The maximum ee% for mandelic acid and 2-phenylpropionic acid was determined to be 60.84 and 27.4, respectively. Separation factors (k1 ’ , k2 ’ , α, and Rs) were calculated for each acid. The structures of the obtained compounds were characterized using the spectroscopic methods (NMR, and elemental analysis). In the second part of the study; enantioselective interactions between the prepared CSP and the analytes have been widely studied by docking, molecular dynamics simulation and quantum mechanical computation methods. The reason of column eluation of rac-2-phenylpropionic acid with lower enantiomeric yield was explained by these techniques.

    (WFL Publisher, 2013) Tarakçı, Zekai; Uǧur, Atnan; Temiz, Hasan; Dağ, Beşir
    The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of adding yogurt and roasting treatment on some physicochemical, L*, a* and b* colour values and organoleptic acceptability properties of lettuce types. The 10 different lettuce varieties included kasam, mangano, robinson, olenka, arapsaçi{dotless}, red leaf, lolorosso, red salat, palamet and salanova were used. After cleaning and cutting into 0.5 mm, the lettuces were roasted with equal amount added yogurt for about 5 min and then applied to the mixing process. There were significant differences in dry matter and pH values between the lettuces added yogurt and raw lettuces. While dry matter of lettuces was increased significantly with yogurt, the pH levels were decreased. The whiteness values (L*) for lettuces have caused significant differences by adding yogurt and roasting applications. L* values of control sample without lettuces were significantly higher than the samples prepared by adding yogurt to lettuces. Lettuce types had a significant effect on the L* colour of samples. The lettuces were a significant a* color values between before and after roasting. After adding yogurt to lettuces; b* values of kasam, robinson and olenka colour values were significantly higher than the other samples prepared by adding yogurt to lettuce types. The lowest overall acceptability scores were detected for olenka, robinson and lolorosso lettuce types while the highest overall acceptability scores were detected for arapsaci, red salat and salanova lettuce types, which were common use in Turkish meals.

    (Journals & Books, 2021-03) Ekinci, Selma; İlter, Zülfiye; Ercan, Selami; Çınar, Ercan; Çakmak, Reşit
    In this study, new, efficient, eco-friendly and magnetically separable nanoadsorbents, MNPs-G1-Mu and MNPs-G2-Mu, were successfully prepared by covalently grafting murexide-terminated polyamidoamine dendrimers on 3-aminopropyl functionalized silica-coated magnetite nanoparticles, and used for rapid removal of lead (II) from aqueous medium. After each adsorption process, the supernatant was successfully acquired from reaction mixture by the magnetic separation, and then analyzed by employing ICP-OES. Chemical and physical characterizations of new nanomaterials were confirmed by XRD, FT-IR, SEM, TEM, and VSM. Maximum adsorption capacities (qm) of both prepared new nanostructured adsorbents were compared with each other and also with some other adsorbents. The kinetic data were appraised by using pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order kinetic models. Adsorption isotherms were found to be suitable with both Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm linear equations. The maximum adsorption capacities for MNPs-G1-Mu and MNPs-G2-Mu were calculated as 208.33 mg g−1 and 232.56 mg g−1, respectively. Antimicrobial activities of nanoparticles were also examined against various microorganisms by using microdilution method. It was determined that MNPs-G1-Mu, MNPs-G2-Mu and lead (II) adsorbed MNPs-G2-Mu showed good antimicrobial activity against S. aureus ATTC 29213 and C. Parapsilosis ATTC 22019. MNPs-G1-Mu also showed antimicrobial activity against C. albicans ATTC 10231.

    Electrochemical performance of boron-doped diamond electrode in surfactant-containing media for ambroxol determination
    (Elsevier, 2014-07-17) Levent, Abdulkadir; Yardım, Yavuz; Şentürk, Zühre
    A novel application of boron-doped diamond electrode is introduced for the determination of ambroxol, a potential antioxidant drug belonging to the expectorant class. The electrochemical oxidation of ambroxol was first investigated by cyclic voltammetry using boron-doped diamond and glassy carbon electrodes in aqueous solutions both with and without the addition of surfactant. The compound was irreversibly oxidized in one/two steps at high positive potentials, resulting in the formation of a couple with a reduction and re-oxidation wave at less positive potentials. Special attention was given to the use of adsorptive stripping voltammetry at a surface of mildly oxidized boron-doped diamond electrode in aqueous solutions over the pH range of 1.0–10.0. Addition of anionic surfactant (sodium dodecylsulfate) to ambroxol-containing electrolyte enhanced the stripping current signal. Using square-wave stripping mode, the drug yielded a well-defined voltammetric response in phosphate buffer pH 2.5 containing 4 × 10−4 M sodium dodecylsulfate at +1.02 V (versus Ag/AgCl) (after 30 s accumulation at +0.50 V). The process could be used to determine ambroxol in the concentration range of 0.05–0.7 μM, with a detection limit of 0.010 μM (4.2 ng mL−1). The suggested method was successfully applied to pharmaceuticals and spiked human urine samples.

    Determination of Cu contamination in some spring and mineral waters around van by AAS after enrichment of activated carbon
    (Medwell, 2011) Dağ, Beşir; Kılıçel, Fevzi
    Some trace metal contamination in water is a major component in the determination of water quality. In order to supply qualify water for health of human being, terrestiral and aquatic animals is very important. Apparently, tap water and spring water qualities in many countries are effected by industrilization and over population. The main aim of this study was to detect copper metal concentration in some spring and mineral water around Van by means of Atomic Absorption Spectrometer after enrichment of activated carbon. Spring and mineral water samples were collected some different parts of city. These mineral and spring water samples were determined by a simple preconcentration method which is called activated carbon enrichment. The metal analysis was done to detect copper element. It was compared the results with standarts for drinking water quality of World Health Organization (WHO) and Europian Union drinking water standarts. As a result, copper level in the spring and mineral water around Van were generally suitable for the both criterias of World Health Organization (WHO) and Europian Union drinking water.
