    The effect of Plantago major Linnaeus on serum total sialic acid, lipid-bound sialic acid, some trace elements and minerals after administration of 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene in rats
    (SAGE, 2012-04) Oto, Gökhan; Ekin, Suat; Özdemir, Hülya; Levent, Abdulkadir; Berber, İsmet
    The present study was designed to evaluate the effect of Plantago major Linnaeus (PM) extract on serum total sialic acid (TSA), lipid-bound sialic acid (LSA), some trace elements (copper (Cu), zinc (Zn) and iron) and mineral levels (magnesium, calcium and sodium) in Wistar albino rat administrated 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene (DMBA). Rats were divided into three equal groups (n = 6). Group I comprised the control group, group II was treated with DMBA (100 mg/kg, single dose) and group III was treated with DMBA (100 mg/kg single dose) and aqueous extract of PM 100 mg/kg/day for 60 days. After 60 days, statistical analyses showed that TSA and LSA levels in DMBA and DMBA + PM groups were significantly higher compared to the control group (TSA: p < 0.01, p < 0.05; LSA: p < 0.05, p < 0.05, respectively). Serum Zn levels were decreased in subjects treated with DMBA (p < 0.01) and DMBA + PM (p < 0.05) compared to the control group values. Serum Cu levels were increased in DMBA group and PM-treated group compared to the control group values. The results of this investigation showed that the levels of TSA and LSA changed significantly, which are sensitive markers for detecting the toxic effects of DMBA. On the other hand, observed decline in Zn levels in rats from DMBA + PM group might be due to decreased generation of free radicals and oxidative stress. Results from this study suggest that PM may be partially effective in preventing carcinogenesis initiated by environmental carcinogen DMBA.

    Ag-doped HfO2 thin films via sol–gel dip coating method
    (Springer Nature, 2019-10-01) Pakma, Osman; Kaval, Şehmus; Kari̇per, İshak Afşin
    In this study, undoped and Ag-doped HfO2 thin films were deposited on glass substrates by means of sol–gel dip coating method. These films were then thermally annealed at 500 °C for 1 h. The structural and optical properties of undoped and Ag-doped HfO2 thin films were characterized by X-ray diffraction, UV–Vis spectrometry and scanning electron microscope. The results of this analysis were compared and interpreted with the results obtained in literature by various methods of coating with HfO2. The X-ray diffraction peaks of the films paired with monoclinic HfO2 crystalline peaks. The refractive indices of the films decreased with doping Ag, at 500 nm wavelengths. The optical band gap values of Ag-doped HfO2 thin films increased with doping Ag. The porous structures were observed on the surface films, especially with 5% Ag doping.

    (Taylor & Francis, 2020-11-16) Gerengi, Hüsnü; Çakmak, Reşit; Dağ, Beşir; Solomon, M. M; Tüysüz Akbal, Hatice Aslıhan; Kaya, Ertuğrul
    A novel corrosion inhibitor, ((E)-1,5-dimethyl-4-((1-(3-nitrophenyl)ethylidene)amino)-2-phenyl-1,2-dihydro-3H-pyrazol-3-one) (DNPP) was synthesized in high yield by the condensation reaction of 4-aminoantipyrine with 2-nitroacetphenone derived from acetophenone as a starting material and characterized by FT-IR, 1H, and 13C NMR techniques. DNPP was tested against the corrosion of SAE 1012 carbon steel in 15 wt.% HCl solution using electrochemical and surface characterization techniques. Results obtained show that DNPP is effective in retarding the corrosion of SAE 1012 carbon steel. With 4 mM of DNPP, the charge transfer resistance of SAE 1012 in 15 wt.% HCl solution is raised from 17.42 to 140.50 Ω cm2 and the substrate surface is protected by 87%. The inhibition is through adsorption mechanism (mixed-adsorption type) and has been confirmed by SEM and EDAX results. Potentiodynamic polarization results reveal that DNPP acted as a mixed-type corrosion inhibitor. DNPP is a promising candidate for the formulation of an inhibitor cocktail for the strong acid environment.

    Voltammetric behavior of acebutolol on pencil graphite electrode: highly sensitive determination in real samples by square‑wave anodic stripping voltammetry
    (Iranian Chemical Society, 2017-08-22) Levent, Abdulkadir
    In this work, an electrochemical investigation of acebutolol (ACE), a beta-blocker drug, was carried out in alkaline medium using pencil graphite (PG) electrode. In cyclic voltammetry, the compound displayed a reversible and adsorption-controlled oxidation peak. By using squarewave anodic stripping voltammetry, the oxidation peak current observed at +0.78 V showed a linear relationship with concentration at 0.4–7 nM interval in Britton–Robinson bufer (pH 10.0) and a detection limit of 0.09 nM. The relative standard deviation of 4.72% for the concentration level of 2.0 nM (n = 11) was also calculated. The PG electrode that is used for the frst time in this method was successfully applied to determine the ACE in pharmaceutical formulations and urine.

    (Wiley-Blackwell, 2020-11-14) İzol, Ebubekir; Temel, Hamdi; Yılmaz, Mustafa Abdullah; Yener, İsmail; Tokul Ölmez, Özge; Kaplaner, Erhan; Fırat, Mehmet; Haşimi, Nesrin; Öztürk, Mehmet; Ertaş, Abdulselam
    Allium species are widely consumed as food all over the world. The phenolic profile of ethanol extracts of aerial parts and roots of 12 Allium species, collected from five different Eastern Anatolia regions, were studied using LC-MS/MS. In vitro antioxidant, anticholinesterase, cytotoxic and antimicrobial activities were also tested. The multivariate analyses were performed using principal component and hierarchical cluster analyses. Seventeen of 27 standard compounds were detected in all Allium species. The major components were mainly identified as quinic acid, malic acid, vanillin, and p-coumaric acid. The aerial parts possessed better antioxidant activity than roots. Aerial parts of A. atroviolaceum, A. chrysantherum, A. kharputense, and A. shirnakiense exhibited high cytotoxic activity against DLD-1 colon cancer cell lines (IC50 12.5 μg/mL). A. shatakiense and A. vineale demonstrated good antimicrobial activity against S. aureus and E. coli (MIC 75 μg/mL). According to chemometric analysis, differences were detected between aerial parts and the roots. The aerial parts of A. atroviolaceum, A. chrysantherum, A. kharputense, and A. shirnakiense could be potent in the pharmaceutical industry while A. shatakiense and A. vineale in the food industry after further investigations.

    On the energy distribution profile of interface states obtained by taking into account of series resistance in Al/TiO2/p–Si (MIS) structures
    (Elsevier, 2011-02-15) Pakma, Osman; Serin, Necmi; Serin, Saliha Tülay; Altındal, Şemsettin
    The energy distribution profile of the interface states (Nss) of Al/TiO2/pSi (MIS) structures prepared using the solgel method was obtained from the forward bias currentvoltage (IV) characteristics by taking into account both the bias dependence of the effective barrier height (φe) and series resistance (Rs) at room temperature. The main electrical parameters of the MIS structure such as ideality factor (n), zero-bias barrier height (φb0) and average series resistance values were found to be 1.69, 0.519 eV and 659 Ω, respectively. This high value of n was attributed to the presence of an interfacial insulator layer at the Al/pSi interface and the density of interface states (Nss) localized at the Si/TiO2 interface. The values of Nss localized at the Si/TiO2 interface were found with and without the Rs at 0.25-Ev in the range between 8.4×10 13 and 4.9×1013 eV-1 cm-2. In addition, the frequency dependence of capacitancevoltage (CV) and conductancevoltage (G/ω-V) characteristics of the structures have been investigated by taking into account the effect of Nss and R s at room temperature. It can be found out that the measured C and G/ω are strongly dependent on bias voltage and frequency.

    238U and total radioactivity in drinking waters in Van province, Turkey
    (Taylor & Francis, 2014-04) Selçuk Zorer, Özlem; Dağ, Beşir
    As part of the national survey to evaluate natural radioactivity in the environment, concentration levels of total radioactivity and natural uranium have been analysed in drinking water samples. A survey to study natural radioactivity in drinking waters was carried out in the Van province, East Turkey. Twenty-three samples of drinking water were collected in the Van province and analysed for total α, total β and 238U activity. The total α and total β activities were counted by using the α/β counter of the multi-detector low background system (PIC MPC-9604), and the 238U concentrations were determined by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (Thermo Scientific Element 2). The samples were categorised according to origin: tap, spring or mineral supply. The activity concentrations for total α were found to range from 0.002 to 0.030 Bq L−1 and for total β from 0.023 to 1.351 Bq L−1. Uranium concentrations ranging from 0.562 to 14.710 μg L−1 were observed in drinking waters. Following the World Health Organisation rules, all investigated waters can be used as drinking water.
