Ceker, S.; Agar, G.; Alpsoy, L.; Nardemir, G.; Kizil, H.E.
Satureja hortensis L. (Lamiaceae) has been used as a folk remedy to treat various such as cramps, muscle pains, nausea, indigestion, diarrhea, and infectious diseases. In this study, the antagonistic effects of essential oil of S. hortensis (SHE) were studied against aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) in human lymphocytes in vitro. The analysis of the essential oil was performed by using Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Anti-genotoxic effects of the SHEs was evaluated using sister chromatid exchange (SCE), micronuclei (MN) tests against AFB1. Also level of malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activities used to determine the anti-oxidative effects of the SHEs. This result showed AFB1 (5 μM) increased the frequencies of SCE, MN and the level of MDA. AFB1 at the same concentration decreased the activities of SOD and GPx. However, different concentrations of SHE with AFB1 decreased the frequency of SCE and MN and level of MDA and also increased the activities of SOD and GPx significantly. Especially, the 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 μL dose of SHE are more effective than other doses. The results of this experiment have clearly shown that SHE has strong antioxidative and antigenotoxic effects, these biological activities of SHEs can be due to its component.

Increasing consumer demands for indigenous, non-sprayed with pesticides and less-known or “forgotten” fruits necessitate knowledge on their breeding, cultivation, biochemical content, harvesting and marketing. Anatolia is rich for wild edible fruit species and barberry is abundant throughout Anatolia. The aim of this study was to determine some important physicochemical characteristics, bioactive content and antioxidant capacity of fruits from nineteen promising barberry (Berberis vulgaris L.) genotypes grown in the Coruh valley, Northeastern Anatolia. The results indicated genotype-specific differences for most of the physicochemical characteristics, antioxidant capacity and the content of some bioactive compounds. Fruit mass ranged from 0.073 (‘Coruh-7’) to 0.267 g (‘Coruh-11’). Total phenolic content ranged from 2532 (‘Coruh-’) to 3719 mg GAE per liter fruit juice (‘Coruh-11’). The genotype ‘Coruh-12’ had the highest total monomeric anthocyanin content (1004 mg per liter fruit juice) as cyanidin-3-glucoside. The highest total antioxidant capacity was observed in fruits of ‘Coruh-8’ and ‘Coruh-9’ genotypes with all three antioxidant-determining methods. We conclude that the barberry fruits represent a good source of bioactive phytochemicals because of their high phenolic and anthocyanin contents.

Dereli, Türkay; Altuntas, Serkan; Kubat, C.; Cagil, G.; Uygun, O.
Examination of the relations among firms with respect to knowledge flows is essential for sustainable development and creative economy in global competition as well as for governments, investors and decision makers. Knowing the causal relations among firms provides answers to questions such as: (1) which firms have strong associations? (2) which firms are in the cause group and (3) which firms are in the effect group? The knowledge flow among firms shows the relations among firms directly. Patent citation analysis is extensively conducted to measure the knowledge flow in the literature. The decision making trial and evaluation laboratory (DEMATEL) method is also extensively used to construct causal relations among variables. In this study, the DEMATEL method based patent citation analysis is utilized to construct causal relations among firms. An illustrative example is presented to find relations among firms which operate business method technologies. The results of the example show that the DEMATEL based patent citation analysis can be performed to construct causal relations among firms.

Yilmaz, Mustafa Tahsin; Tatlisu, Nevruz Berna; Toker, Omer Said; Karaman, Safa; Dertli, Enes; Sagdic, Osman; Arici, Muhammet
In this study, natural honey was adulterated with the addition of adulterants, namely saccharose and fructose syrups at a ratio of 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40% and 50% by weight. Steady, dynamic and creep tests were conducted, revealing that the changes in the flow, viscoelastic and creep behavior of natural honey were clear and remarkable. Syrup addition decreased viscosity (η), storage (G') and loss modulus (G″) values of the control honey samples. Deformation represented by the compliance (J(t)) values was more prominent in the adulterated honey samples. In addition, HPLC-RID analysis was conducted to determine major sugar composition of the adulterated samples. Pearson's correlation test indicated that there were significant (P<0.05; 0.01) correlations between sugar composition and rheology parameters, η (viscosity), K″, K* (intercepts for G″ and complex modulus (G*), respectively) and η0 (viscosity of Maxwell dashpot), suggesting that K', K″, K* and η0 could be prominent indicators for presence of saccharose or fructose syrups added in natural honey within the studied concentration levels. These results suggested that use of steady, dynamic and creep analysis would be a novel and potential approach to detect honey adulteration by fructose and saccharose syrups.

Balci, Murat; Nalbant, Mustafa Oǧuz; Kara, Ercan; Gündoǧdu, Ömer
This study presents a free vibration analysis of a laminated composite beam, based on the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory. A numerical model of the laminated composite beam was obtained for various boundary conditions based on different length-to-thickness ratios for a number of layers, using the finite element method. A planar beam bending element with two nodes, each having two degrees of freedom, was chosen according to Euler-Bernoulli beam theory. The natural frequencies of the laminated composite beam were obtained for each case, and presented in such a way as to display the effect of these changes on the natural frequencies. Eight natural frequencies of clamped-free, clamped-clamped (CC) and simple-simple (SS) composite beams were first obtained for different length-to-thickness ratios (Lx /h), numbers of layers, layer angles and for their different positions. It can be seen that natural frequencies decrease for all modes with increasing length-to-thickness ratio in all cases.

Hasar, U.C.; Kaya, Y.; Bute, M.; Barroso, J.J.; Ertugrul, M.
An attractive transmission-reflection method based on reference-plane invariant and thickness-independent expressions has been proposed for accurate and unique retrieval of complex permittivity of dielectric liquid samples. The method uses both branch-index-independent expressions and a restricted solution set for determining unique and fast complex permittivities. A 2D graphical method has been applied to demonstrate the operation and validation of the proposed method. A uncertainty analysis has been performed to monitor how the accuracy of the proposed method can be improved by a correct selection of sample holder properties. Scattering parameter measurements of two tested reference liquids (distilled water and methanol) have been carried out for comparison of various techniques with the proposed one when the reference-planes and sample thickness are not precisely known. We note from the comparison that whereas other techniques are seriously affected by imprecise knowledge of both reference-planes and sample thickness, the proposed method removes this restriction.

An alkaline pectin lyase (Pnl) (EC 4.2.2.10) secreted by Brevibacillus borstelensis P35 (genBank number: FJ417406) was purifed using ammonium sulfate fractionation, anion exchange chromatography on DEaE-cellulose and gel fltration chromatography on Sephadex g-150. The pH and temperature optima of the enzyme were found to be 8.0 and 60 °C. The enzyme does not loose activity up to 60 °C if exposed for 1 h. The values of Kmand Vmax of the enzyme were 0.625 mg/ml and 126.32 s-1, respectively. The molecular weight was found to be 36 ± 01 kDa. The presence of 10 mM concentration of Ca2+, Cu2+, Mn2+, Mg2+, Zn2+, Hg2+, Fe2+ and EDTa, L-cystein, ascorbic acid signifcantly enhanced the Pnl of the purifed enzyme. In the course of the laboratory trials, it was demonstrated that Pnl from B. borstelensis (P35) could be successfully applied to the production and clarif-cation of fruit juice and oil extraction.

Öner, Erdal; Yaylaci, Murat; Birinci, Ahmet
In this study, a receding contact problem for two elastic layers supported by a Winkler foundation is handled using two different methods such as an analytical method and a finite element method. Firstly, the problem is solved analytically using linear elasticity theory. Then, in order to solve the same problem in a different way, a finite element model of the problem is created by ANSYS software, and finite element analysis of the problem is performed. The contact stresses and the contact areas at the interfaces between punch-Layer 2 and Layer 1-Layer 2 are obtained for both solutions, and it is shown that the finite element method indicates a good agreement with the analytical method.

Yurdakul, Muhammet; Ates, Sevket; Altunisik, Ahmet Can
The main object of this study is to determine and compare the structural behavior of base isolated long span highway bridge, Gülburnu Highway Bridge, using single concave friction pendulum (SCFP) and triple concave friction pendulum (TCFP). The bridge is seismically isolated in the design phase to increase the main period and reduce the horizontal forces with moments using SCFP bearings. In the content of the paper, firstly three dimensional finite element model (FEM) of the bridge is constituted using project drawings by SAP2000 software. The dynamic characteristics such as natural frequencies and periods, and the structural response such as displacements, axial forces, shear forces and torsional moments are attained from the modal and dynamic analyses. After, FEM of the bridge is updated using TCFP and the analyses are performed. At the end of the study, the dynamic characteristics and internal forces are compared with each other to extract the TCFP effect. To emphasize the base isolation effect, the non-isolated structural analysis results are added to graphics. The predominant frequencies of bridge non-isolated, isolated with SCFP and isolated with TCFP conditions decreased from 0.849Hz to 0.497Hz and 0.338Hz, respectively. The maximum vertical displacements are obtained as 57cm, 54cm and 44cm for non-isolated, isolated with SCFP and isolated with TCFP conditions, respectively. The maximum vertical displacement reduction between isolated with TCFP bearing and isolated with SCFP bearing bridge is %23. Maximum axial forces are obtained as 60619kN, 18728kN and 7382kN, maximum shear forces are obtained as 23408kN, 17913kN and 16249kN and maximum torsional moments are obtained as 24020kNm, 7619kNm and 3840kNm for non-isolated, isolated with SCFP and isolated with TCFP conditions, respectively.

Atmaca, Barbaros; Yurdakul, Muhammet; Ateş, Şevket
In this paper, it is aimed to determine the earthquake effects on cable-stayed bridge isolated by single concave friction pendulum bearings (SCFP). In this context, Manavgat cable-stayed bridge is selected as a numerical application. The selected bridge has 202. m composite deck and 42. m steel tower. 3D finite element models (FEM) of the base isolated and non-isolated bridge are modeled by using SAP2000. Three different earthquakes which are 11 December 1999 Düzce, 23 November 2011 Van and 13 March 1992 Erzincan earthquakes are subjected to the 3D FEM models in order to determine the seismic behavior of the bridges. BOL-090 and BOL-000; ERCIS-EW and ERCIS-NS; ERZ-NS and ERZ-EW components of ground motions obtained from PEER and AFAD are applied to the bridges at the longitudinal and transverse directions, respectively. Nonlinear time history analysis is executed to determine the dynamic responses of the bridge. Comparison of dynamic behavior of isolated and non-isolated bridge with and without the SCFP bearings under three different earthquake motions has been conducted. The results obtained from analyses of 3D FEM of the bridge are presented by graphics and tables in detail. It is seen that using of isolation system reduces the destructive effects of earthquakes on the bridge.

Altuntas, Serkan; Selim, Hasan; Dereli, Turkay
Facility layout in production systems is a difficult activity since both qualitative and quantitative factors affect the location decision, and also influence and causal relationship between these factors should be determined for a better location. In this respect, it is demonstrated in this study that fuzzy decision-making trial and evaluation laboratory (fuzzy DEMATEL) method can effectively be used in handling facility layout problems in practice. The qualitative factors that described by linguistic terms can be taken into account through fuzzy structure of the method. Considering this, a fuzzy DEMATEL-based solution approach for facility layout problem is proposed in this study. The proposed approach takes into account both qualitative and quantitative location factors. To address the need in practice, six important location factors are considered in this study. These are material flow, information flow, personnel flow, equipment flow, environmental condition, and supervision of personnel. This study differs from the previous works in that it applies fuzzy DEMATEL method to facility layout problem. To explore the viability of the proposed approach, a real world problem in a machinery industry firm is handled.

MgB2 bulk superconductors were prepared by hot press plus furnace heating method. Two types of boron powders were used, one is amorphous nano boron and the other is C-doped boron. Characteristics of superconductors were determined by XRD and resistance measurements. Systematic levitation force measurements were performed by using a modular system at low temperatures. These bulk superconductors showed around 9 N repulsive and 4 N attractive forces in the z-axis at 20 K at closest point to the cryostat lid which contains the MgB2 superconductor. These values slightly decreased by increasing temperature to 24 and 28 K for both samples. Comparing two samples, nano boron MgB2 showed slightly higher levitation force than C-doped MgB2 although C-doped MgB2 has higher attractive force value at the closest point. This situation points out that C-doped MgB2 is much proper for attractive force applications (as guidance force) while the nanoboron MgB2 sample is much appropriate for repulsive force (as levitation).

In this study, some physical properties of a laminated composite beam were estimated by using the inverse vibration problem method. Laminated composite plate was modeled and simulated to obtain vibration responses for different length-to-thickness ratios in ANSYS. A numerical model of the laminated composite beam with unknown parameters was also developed using a two-dimensional finite element model by utilizing the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory. Then, these two models were embedded into the optimization program to form the objective function to be minimized using genetic algorithms. After minimizing the squared difference of the natural frequencies from these two models, the unknown parameters of the laminated composite beam were found. It is observed in this study that the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory suppositions approximated the real results with a rate of %0.026 error as the thickness of the beam got thinner. The estimated values were finally compared with the expected values and a very good correspondence was observed.

Many studies have shown that metal ions may lead to oxidative stress in biological systems. Accordingly, DNA damage, protein modification, enzyme inhibition and activation, lipid peroxidation and many other effects may occur in living organisms. Many different formations of metal ions may enter human cells along with water, air, and various foods, and humans are negatively affected by these conditions, either directly or indirectly. These effects may cause irreversible damage to human metabolism. In this study, the toxicological effects of heavy metals on carbonic anhydrase enzyme activity from the gilthead sea bream liver were investigated. The carbonic anhydrase enzyme was purified via affinity chromatography and had a specific activity of 6775.5 EU mg(-1). The kinetics and characteristic properties, such as optimum pH, stable pH, optimum temperature, activation energy (E-a), activation enthalpy (Delta H), Q(10), K-m, and V-max, were determined for the purified enzyme SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed a single band and molecular weight of the subunit was approximately 25 kDa. Cd(II), Cu(II), Ni(II) and Ag(I) inhibited the enzyme activity in vitro. The type of inhibition and K-i values for these metals were calculated from Lineweaver-Burk plots as 17.74 mM, 36.20 mM, 12.85 mM and 0.025 mM for Cd(II), Cu(II), Ni(II) and Ag(I), respectively.

Altuntas, S.; Dereli, T.; Selim, H.
This study aims to propose new solution approaches based on fuzzy weighted association rules for facility layout problem in a cellular manufacturing system. The facility layout problem under concern has two important aspects, namely; fuzzy product route and fuzzy machine weight. Number of machine types as well as the number of machines in each type is determined in order to define a fuzzy product route. A fuzzy set is then assigned for each machine type to match them with appropriate products. Alternative routes for each product and machine weights are defined by fuzzy functions. Market demand is also used to assign weights to the machines. Three solution approaches, namely fuzzy weighted association rule mining (FWARM), Gyenesei's weighted quantitative association rules (WQAR) and normalised weighted association rule mining (NWARM) based approaches, are proposed in this study. To the authors' best knowledge, this is the first attempt which considers fuzzy weighted association rule-based data mining approaches to the facility layout problem. An illustrative example is presented to demonstrate the usefulness of the proposed approaches.
