Arslaner, Ayla; Salik, Mehmet Ali; Bakirci, İhsan
In this study, the effect of Hibiscus sabdariffa L. flowers marmalade (HM) addition at different ratios (0%, 15%, 20%) was determined on the certain quality properties, total phenolic contents, antioxidant activity, mineral composition and heavy metal content of stirred-type yogurts (C, HM15, and HM20). The marmalade addition increased dry matter, ash, titratable acidity and viscosity whereas decreased pH, fat and protein values. HM addition significantly increased the antioxidant properties of yogurt samples. 2,2-Diphenylpicrylhydrazyl radical-scavenging activity, Copper (II) reducing antioxidant capacity and total phenolic content were found to be in the range of 5.92–26.73 mg TE/100 g, 4.88–15.03 mg TE/100 g, and 5.57–14.69 mg GAE/100 g, respectively. There were no statistically differences between control and HM-added groups in terms of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) counts, also in all samples the total LAB count was above 6 Log cfu/g during the storage. Fe, Mn, B, and Ba mineral values of samples with HM were higher than control sample. Cd, As, Hg and Li heavy metals were not detected in any of the samples, consequently results were within reliable limits reported by JECFA (Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives) and Turkish Food Codex. As a result of the sensory evaluation, the samples containing 20% HM generally received higher scores than the samples containing 15% HM. Considering all the parameters, it was concluded that HM yogurts can be used as a different type in the functional yogurt industry due to its pleasant and characteristic taste.

İncele - MakaleYalnız künye2021Scopus SJRQ1A regional supplementary cementitious material for the cement industry: Pistachio shell ash
Tekin, İ.; Dirikolu, İ.; Gökçe, H.S.
The recycling of agricultural wastes in cementitious products has recently been a trendy approach for the sustainability goals of the world as it ensures economic and ecological advantages in addition to the safe disposal of these wastes. In this regard, the potentiality of a biomass ash obtained from the incineration of pistachio shell to serve as a supplementary cementitious material is documented in the present study. An increase of up to 30% in the amount of pistachio shell ash resulted in the proportional increase of both water requirement and setting time of the ordinary Portland cement by up to 54% and 300%, respectively. The incorporation of up to 20% pistachio shell ash into the cement yielded specimens of comparable or higher compressive strength values relatively varying between 98% and 117% at the 28 days and later curing ages. Beside the cementitious property, it was observed that a presence of graphitic structures in the pistachio shell ash remarkably improved the mechanical and the microstructural properties of cement mortars. In conclusion, at least 10% incorporation of this ash into the cement is highly recommended for the cement industry as it is beneficial in achieving the highest ultimate (400-day) compressive strength and promotes no loss on the early (2-day) compressive strength.

Şahin, Engin
Candida zeylanoides P1 was investigated as whole cell biocatalyst for the bioreduction of biaryl prochiral ketones into chiral carbinols, which can be used as pharmaceutical intermediate. Bioreduction of different biaryl ketones was carried out to their corresponding chiral biaryl carbinols such as (S)-(4-chlorophenyl) (phenyl) methanol (2a), which can be used in the synthesis of L-cloperastine drug, with antitussive, antiepidemic activity and bronchial musculature relaxant characteristics, in gram scale, enantiopure form (>99%) and excellent yields. The selectivity of C. zeylanoides P1 in enantioselective reduction of biaryl ketones was not affected by the steric and electronic effects of substrates. The current method demonstrates an encouraging green chemistry approach for the production of biaryl secondary chiral alcohols of pharmaceutical importance in mild, inexpensive and environmentally friendly process. The present study has many benefits since this yeast biocatalyst were successfully applied bioreduction of structurally bulky prochiral substrates, which cannot be reducted by chemical catalysis.

Kul, S.
The study aims to determine Cu(II) adsorption from wastewater in the laboratory condition using modified sewage sludge ash as adsorbent which was obtained from a thermal drying and incineration facility. This procedure was completed with an inexpensive pollutant material which has high metal-binding capacity and is available in abundant amounts. During experiments, the effects of particle size, pH, stirring speed, initial ion concentration, adsorbent dosage and temperature were investigated. Adsorption equilibrium was obtained in 10 min. Maximum Cu(II) removal was calculated as 83.63% with 20 mg L−1 initial Cu(II) ion concentration and 5 g L−1 adsorbent dosage. Kolmogorov–Smirnov normality test was performed to test the conformity of the data obtained as a result of the study to variance analysis, and it was determined that the data were distributed normally (p > 0.05). Levene test was performed for homogeneity test, and it was determined that the data were distributed homogeneously (p > 0.05). Langmuir was determined as the most suitable isotherm model for Cu(II) adsorption. Adsorption kinetics abided by the pseudo-second-order model. Based on kinetic studies, the adsorption process was endothermic with maximum adsorption capacity calculated as 7.53 mg g−1. The results of thermodynamic research showed the adsorption reaction was spontaneous (ΔG° < 0), endothermic (ΔH° > 0) and reversible (ΔS° > 0 and close to zero).

In this study, it was aimed to produce graphene/polyaniline nanocomposite thin films as counter electrode materials by PECVD system and to determine the photovoltaic performances of these counter electrodes in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). Graphene/polyaniline counter electrode (GPCE) material was produced in two different steps. Firstly, a single-layer and multilayer graphene thin films were produced on the fluorine-doped tinoxide (FTO) substrates. Then, polyaniline (PANI) thin films were grown on each graphene thin films using plasma polymerization technique, and eventually the production of the graphene/PANI nanocomposite was completed. The fabricated graphene/PANI nanocomposites were used in place of platinum (Pt)-counter electrode which is widely used in DSSCs and the photovoltaic performance of these counter electrodes was investigated. The DSSCs consisted of titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanotube photoanode, N719 dye, iodolyte liquid electrolyte, and graphene/PANI nanocomposite counter electrode. I–V measurements were carried out in order to calculated photoconversion efficiency (PCE) and it was found that the these efficiency of GPCEs changed between 0.56 and 1.36% according to the number of graphene layers. The photovoltaic performance of DSSC, consisting of TiO2 nanotube photoanode and Pt-counter electrode was 1.1%.

İspirli, Hümeyra; Bowman, Michael J.; Skory, Christopher D.; Dertli, Enes
Glucansucrases can perform acceptor reactions with different sugars to produce distinct oligosaccharides which can potentially act as prebiotics depending on their characteristics. Using cheap substrate sucrose and under mild and environmentally friendly conditions, glucansucrase-derived oligosaccharides can be produced with high yields. In this study, raffinose-derived oligosaccharides up to degree of polymerization (DP) 7 produced by glucansucrase E81 were characterized and their prebiotic functions were evaluated. The main product was a DP 4 oligosaccharide containing two products formed by the transfer of the glucose to raffinose at either the 3- (81%) or 4-O (19%) position of its galactose residue confirmed by NMR spectroscopy and LC-MS-LTQ analysis. The purified DP 4 raffinose-derived oligosaccharides were subjected to in vitro human gastric fluid and α-amylase digestion tests and no digestion was observed under both cases. Finally, prebiotic potential of DP 4 raffinose-derived oligosaccharides was tested with probiotic and pathogenic strains and only growth of Bifidobacteria promoted, thus supported the Bifidogenic activity of DP 4 raffinose-derived oligosaccharides.

Kutlu, Naciye
In this study, the ohmic heating system was used as a novel application for osmotic dehydration of quince. After osmotic dehydration, samples were dried by microwave. In this regard, the effects of process variables such as electrical field strengths (20, 30 and 40 V/cm), holding time (10, 20 and 30 minutes), microwave power (90, 180 and 270 W) and sucrose concentration (0%, 25% and 50%) on dielectric constant, dielectric loss factor, rehydration ratios, total phenolic compounds and color values were investigated by response surface methodology (RSM). Optimum conditions were found as 40 V/cm electrical field strength, 30 min holding time, 16.67% sucrose concentration and 270 W microwave power. Total phenolic content, rehydration ratio, color differences and dielectric properties of the novel method were found to be higher than that of control. Moreover, Midilli and Wang & Sing models gave the superior fit to the moisture ratio data obtained during drying.

The present study was aimed at investigating the effects of the dietary use of different doses of Moringa oleifera essential oil (MOEO) on performance parameters, internal organ weights and meat quality in Japanese quails (Coturnix coturnix japonica) exposed to Heat Stress (HS). For this purpose, 320 male day-old quail chicks were used. Seven days of preliminary (physical exercise) and a 35-day fattening period were applied. The animals were divided into 8 groups, each including 40 animals according to temparature (C: 25 °C and SC: 37 °C) and dietary doses (C, 200, 400 and 600). Each group was divided into 4 subgroups, each comprising 10 animals. The consequences of this study showed that, in the stress-free (HSF) groups, while all of the different doses of dietary MOEO positively affected growth performance, feed intake and feed efficiency, in the HS groups, similar positive effects were observed with the use of 200 ppm of dietary MOEO. While no effect was detected on internal organ weights on Days 21 and 42 in the HSF and HS groups, a dose-dependent increase was determined in the intestinal pH value on day 42 in the HS group (p <.05). Additionally, in the analysis of meat quality on the 21st and 42 days compared to the controls, no effect was observed on the meat colour parameters value and TBARS level in the HS and HSF groups. Based on the consequences of this study, it is considered that, MOEO could be used as an alternative product in poultry, at a dose of 200 ppm, to reduce the detrimental effects of HS.HIGHLIGHTS Temperature stress, performance parameters and serious problems in the health of poultry. Moringa olifera helps regulate performance parameters in poultry exposed to heat stress. Since the addition of Moringa oleifera to the diets does not affect the organ weight and meat quality in 21 and 42 days, it does not cause any negative effects for the consumer.

Karakus, Murat; Guler, Evrim; Uludag, Suleyman
Data flows of various applications, such as video conferencing, telesurgery, online-gaming, etc., require particular treatment regarding Quality of Service (QoS) because of their sensitivity to such parameters as high bandwidth, low delay, and so on. However, provisioning of QoS-based routing services across Autonomous Systems (ASes) poses gruelling challenges due to the distributed nature and business confidentially hesitations. This study presents a novel blockchain-aided QoS-enabled inter-AS routing framework, QoSChain (QC), by blending merits of Software-Defined Networking (SDN) and Blockchain technologies. QC framework introduces a coordination framework with mutually distrusting participants that eliminates centralized mediators in provisioning QoS among SDN-enabled ASes. Also, QC reduces the time to set up an end-to-end (E2E) path and the number of messages exchanged and processed by SDN controllers for a QoS flow. Furthermore, it alleviates the concerns of network operators regarding potentially sensitive information disclosure resulting from the required information sharing for QoS-based cross-AS paths by masking details of any confidential information. Experimental results verify the feasibility of the proposed framework on E2E QoS-based routing among SDN networks. This work aims at being a useful primer for researchers in providing insights on how blockchain can be deployed in QoS-enabled routing.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of adding an essential fatty acid mixture (EOM; Eucalyptus globulus Labill, thymus vulgaris, Cymbopogon nardus, and Syzygium aromaticum) to the drinking water in the heat stress broilers on the adipokine (Apelin, BDNF) response, the histopathologic changes in liver and intestines, and some biochemical parameters. This study lasted for a total of 42days, including the physical exercise period (7days) and the fattening period (35days). A total of 400 Ross 308 male broilers (1-d-old) were randomly divided into 8 groups (50 animals per group), each of which was exposed to various conditions of temperature (C: 22°C and SC: 36°C) and treatment dose (C, 250, 500 and 750mL/1000 L). Each group was divided into 5 subgroups, each comprising 10 animals. In the stress-free groups, whereas the Apelin level linearly decreased, the BDNF level linearly increased. In histopathology, the liver tissue was found to be normal in all groups whereas the duodenum villi length was found to increase in the group of 750mL/1000 L. No statistically significant difference was found between the stressed groups and the non-stressed groups in terms of VLDL, Glucose, Total bilirubin, ALT, and TG (p >.05). While Apelin level increased in the stressed groups, the BDNF level increased in the group of 250mL/1000 L. In the histopathological examination, a small amount of coagulation necrosis was detected in hepatocyte, a diffuse hydropic degeneration was observed in hepatocytes, and finally a dilatation and hyperaemia were seen in sinusoid in the groups of EOM-500mL/1000 L and EOM-750 m/1000 L compared to the control group. Whereas there was no difference between the group of EOM-250mL/1000 L and the control group in terms of duodenum villa length, there was a significant decrease in other groups (p <.00). In conclusion, this study showed that adding 250mL/1000 L of EOM to the drinking water had a positive effect on the serum levels of Apelin and p-BDNF in the groups exposed to stress (p <.05).HIGHLIGHTS Heat stress results in serious annual economic losses in the poultry industry. Essential oil fatty mix acids have positive effects on poultry health. Apelin and BDNF may be a protective factor against deleterious consequences of chronic exposition to heat stress.

A user friendly online Photon Shielding and Dosimetry (PSD) software available at https://phy-x.net/PSD has been developed for calculation of parameters relevant to shielding and dosimetry. These parameters include linear and mass attenuation coefficients (LAC, MAC), half and tenth value layers (HVL, TVL), mean free path (MFP), effective atomic number and electron density (Zeff, Neff), effective conductivity (Ceff) energy absorption and exposure buildup factors (EABF, EBF). The software can generate data on shielding parameters in the continuous energy region (1 keV-100 GeV). Also, some well-known radioactive sources (22Na, 55Fe, 60Co, 109Cd, 131I, 133Ba, 137Cs, 152Eu and 241Am) along with their energies and some characteristic (K-shell) X-ray energies of Cu, Rb, Mo, Ag, Ba and Tb elements are available in the software and can be selected by the user. Thus, one can obtain the shielding parameters at photon energies available for the predefined energies. Moreover, another parameter relevant to shielding i.e. the fast neutron removal cross section (FNRCS) can be calculated for a compound or a mixture using this software. The software is freely available online after having registered to the Phy-X platform.

Ozturk, K.; Guner, S.B.; Abdioglu, M.; Demirci, M.; Celik, S.; Cansiz, A.
The higher magnetic levitation force and related stiffness values are very important for Maglev and magnetic bearing applications. Also, larger superconducting surface area is needed for continuous and larger magnetic mediums with different geometries and dimensions in real scale industrial applications of superconducting systems. In this study, the cylindrical YBCO superconductors were fabricated by top−seeded melt growth (TSMG) method in single and two−seeded forms with different seed distances and then the magnetic force and stiffness measurements were carried out by three axes magnetic force measurement system in different cooling heights (CH) of 20 mm and 75 mm. Additionally, a new analytical method, based on the magnetic dipole approximation, is proposed to calculate the levitation force in this study, named as Modified Advanced Frozen Image Method (MAFI), since although the Advanced Frozen Image Method in literature can calculate the levitation force with hysteresis, this method does not include the size effect of the superconductor. In the experimental studies, it is seen that the maximum levitation force values obtained by PMG with three PMs (named PMG−1) are more than two times higher than that of obtained with single PM for all samples with different distance of seeds, because of the higher magnetic flux distribution of related PMG arrangement than the single PM. In addition, the maximum magnetic levitation force value firstly increased and then decreased due to current coupling effect weakness by increasing distance of seeds. The calculated analytical levitation force results are not compatible with the experimental results without current coupling effect, but a well agreement is observed when the current coupling effect is taken into account in calculations. Also the MAFI method was tested with different dimensions of superconductors and the obtained results indicated the success of the proposed method. The maximum levitation force values obtained with MAFI method increased with increasing dimensions of HTS and PMs. Thus, one can say that the MAFI method is useful for the levitation force calculations between multi−seeded superconductors and PMGs with different dimensions and for different CHs. As a result, the analytical levitation force values obtained with the MAFI method are agree with the experimental levitation force sufficiently and this method can give fast calculation results without any divergence problem. This method can be thought as an alternative to the numerical calculation methods, having serious divergence problems for much amount and bigger size superconducting samples, therefore it will be useful to clarify bulk superconducting properties as supporter to the experimental studies.

Many family firms hire and rely on non-family employees; therefore, the mutual benefits provided to both family and non-family members are important. Yet, the perspectives of non-family employees have been under researched. Drawing upon organizational identity and justice theories and the extant literature on family influence, this study examines non-family employees' perceived family influence, family firm identification, family firm justice, and turnover intentions in a sample of 301 family business non-family employees. Path analysis results show that non-family employees' perceived family influence can lead to family firm identification, in turn diminishing their turnover intentions. We also find that non-family employees' perceptions of family firm justice moderate the relationship between non-family employees' perceived family influence and family firm identification. We conclude by discussing implications.
