Altındağ, Fikret; Boğokşayan, Seda; Bayram, Sinan
This study aims to evaluate in vivo protective effects of eumelanin (EU) on diethylnitrosamine (DEN)-induced liver injury. Wistar albino male rats were divided into 6 groups (n = 6), Control, DMSO, DEN, DEN + EU10, DEN + EU15, and DEN + EU20. Animals in the DEN group were injected i.p a single dose of 200 mg/kg DEN, DEN + EU10 group was given 10 mg/kg EU, DEN + EU15 group was given 15 mg/kg, DEN + EU20 group was given 20 mg/kg EU for a week. The results showed that there was no significant difference in vessel volume density between the groups. Inflammatory cell infiltration, hydropic degeneration, and necrotic cells were observed in the DEN group, and these histopathological changes were significantly reduced in all treatment groups. Although there was a low intensity of PAS-positive staining in the DEN groups, moderate staining was observed in the treatment groups. While Caspase-3, PCNA, TNF-α, and IL-6 expressions increased in the DEN group, their expressions decreased in the EU-treated groups. DEN increased AST, ALT, and MDA levels and decreased CAT levels. In particular, the EU10 dose significantly improved these parameters. The present study revealed that eumelanin has protective effects against DEN-induced liver injury.

Şahin, Engin
Asymmetric bioreduction catalyzed by biocatalyst have shown considerable potential in the preparation of chiral alcohols. (R)-1-(furan-2-yl)ethanol ((R)-2) can be used precursor in the synthesis of many naturally bioactive piperidine alkaloids such as (−)-Cassine, (−)-Spectaline, (−)-Carnavaline, Prosafrine and (−)- Prosafrinine. Moreover, (R)-2 a key chiral precursor in the production of α, β-unsaturated δ- lactones, which have antifungal, antibiotic, and cytotoxic effects on human tumor cells. However, the synthesis routes of (R)-2 still pose significant challenges in term of unsatisfactory enantiomeric excess (ee) and gram scale synthesis. In this study, Lactobacillus paracasei BD101 biocatalyst from boza, a cereal-based fermented beverage, for the asymmetric bioreduction of the 1-(furan-2-yl)ethanone (1). Following biocatalytic process optimization, (R)-2 was generated with >99% ee and 97% yield. In addition, 9.9 g of 1 was completely converted into (R)-2 on a gram scale (9.78 g, 97% isolated yield) in 48 h. This is the first report about the fabrication of enantiopure (R)-2 in high gram scale using biocatalyst. The optical purity of (R)-2 produced by asymmetric reduction with L paracasei BD101 was also noteworthy since it was the highest documented to date. This study provides an efficient green process for the biocatalytic synthesis of (R)-2.

Uyar, Mehmet; Ergün, Mustafa
Structural control methods are applied to eliminate the structural damages caused by the vibrations in the buildings and to improve their dynamic behavior of them under dynamic lateral loads. In this paper, the pure active control performance of a tall building under the influence of earthquake records, in which the effective time duration is determined by considering the ARIAS energy distribution, is presented. The building's pure active control performance in the period when the earthquake records have the maximum effect on the structure is examined. Eleven earthquake records are selected to better evaluate the effect of vibration control performance. A genetic algorithm is used to determine the parameters of single and multi-feedback controllers, and its effect on the vibration eliminations at the top and all floors is studied. Also, the effect of displacement and velocity feedback on seismic vibration control is evaluated. To carry out the vibration control studies of the building, the mathematical model is extracted from the finite element model created in ANSYS and verified with finite element analysis. It is observed that the displacement value at a reference location on the building is reduced from 0.735 m to 0.019 m, 0.004 m, and 0.002 m, respectively, by the Proportional-Integral-Derivative, Direct Velocity Feedback, and Optimal controllers. The results show that the multi-feedback control is more effective than the single-feedback control application in reducing the vibration amplitudes at all floors in the pure active control system.

Kadakal, Mahir; Işcan, Imdat; Kadakal, Huriye
Unfortunately, eleven of our provinces were severely affected due to two severe earthquakes that occurred in our country, the Republic of Turkey, on February 6, 2023. As a result, thousands of buildings were destroyed and tens of thousands of our citizens lost their lives. From past to present, such disasters have occurred in many parts of our world and will continue to happen. In order to raise awareness for researchers and academicians reading our article, we will give a new definition of convexity in this article, and we will call it "earthquake convexity". In this paper, we study some algebraic properties of the earthquake convexity. Then we compare the results obtained with both Hölder, Hölder-Işcan inequalities and power-mean, improved power-mean integral inequalities and show that the results obtained with Hölder-Işcan and improved power-mean inequalities are better than the others. Some applications to special means of real numbers are also given.

Kan, Muhammed Enes
The aim of this study is to conduct an in-depth analysis of the debates held in the Grand National Assembly of Türkiye (TBMM) following the earthquakes centered in Kahramanmaraş on February 6, 2023. To this end, all parliamentary sessions held between the date of the earthquake (February 6, 2023) and the general parliamentary elections (May 14, 2023) were obtained from the official website of the TBMM and systematically archived. During this period, the Assembly convened a total of 24 sessions. The official transcripts of these sessions constituted the dataset for the study. The data were analyzed using the content analysis method, a widely employed technique in qualitative research, with the assistance of the NVIVO 14 software package. Within this framework, the most frequently discussed topics in the TBMM regarding disaster management in the post-earthquake period were identified as follows: the declaration of a state of emergency (OHAL), allegations concerning the Disaster and Emergency Management Authority (AFAD) and the Turkish Red Crescent (Kızılay), the deployment of the Turkish Armed Forces (TSK) in search-and-rescue efforts, the continuity of education, and issues related to refugees.

Kırkıncı, Seran; Gercek, Yusuf Can; Baştürk, Fatma Nur; Yıldırım, Nazlıcan; Gıdık, Betül; Bayram, Nesrin Ecem
This study investigated the impact of two extraction methods, traditional hydrodistillation (TDH) and microwave-assisted hydrodistillation (MAH), on the essential oil yield and chemical profile of Lavandula angustifolia L., as well as the bioactive potential of the resulting wastewater. Essential oil composition was analyzed via GC–MS, revealing similar qualitative and quantitative profiles for both methods, with α-terpinolene and (–)borneol as major constituents. Wastewater analysis via LC–MS/MS and spectrophotometric assays demonstrated the presence of significant total phenolic content (3.29–1.78 mg GAE/g) and 32 individual phenolics (463.1 µg/kg for TDH; 479.33 µg/kg for MAH). These findings suggest that both essential oil and wastewater obtained by either method possess considerable bioactive potential, with the MAH method potentially offering advantages over TDH for essential oil extraction. Further exploration of wastewater applications in various industrial sectors is warranted.

Yilmaz, Galip; Gerdan, Zeynep; Çolak, Murat
This study explores the alternative polymer materials and selection process for joint implant liners, focusing on applying CES Selector software to identify suitable polymer materials. CES Selector provides an easy-to-use interface. It offers multiple selection methods, including boundary values and property constraints. Seven materials were excluded from the analysis, resulting in 19 potential candidates, including unconventional options like EVOH, PCTA, PESU, PI, PPA, PPC, PPSU, and PSU. The materials underwent evaluation based on key criteria, including tensile strength, Young’s modulus, compressive strength, fatigue strength, and fracture toughness. Overall, TPU exhibited a remarkable combination of high mechanical strength and adaptable Young’s modulus, making it a top contender. However, in other evaluation criteria, PI surpassed TPU, solidifying its potential as a superior choice. This systematic approach provides valuable insights for engineers and designers seeking innovative materials for joint implant liners. The study results broaden the range of materials used in implant manufacturing, providing potential alternatives that offer better long-term durability and performance.

Adiyaman, Gökhan; Öner, Erdal; Yaylaci, Murat; Birinci, Ahmet
One of the most important components of the early design process for layered systems is gaining a knowledge of the behavior of materials under varied contact situations. Functionally graded materials (FGMs) have grown in popularity in layered systems as a result of their numerous benefits, such as permitting the reduction of local stress concentrations and thermal stresses often experienced in traditional composites. This paper suggests an analytical approach to solving the continuous and discontinuous contact problems of a functionally graded (FG) layer subjected to a distributed load. Elasticity theory and integral transform methods provide the basis of the aforementioned analytical approach. The FG layer rests on a half-plane that is homogeneous, and there is no adhesion or bonding at the contact surface. For this problem, we assume an exponentially varying shear modulus and mass density in the FG layer. In the solution, the body force of the FG layer is considered. The problem is solved analytically by applying boundary conditions for both continuous and discontinuous contact cases. The presented results show the effects of load factor, amplitude of distributed load, inhomogeneity parameters, and interface material property mismatch on contact stress distributions, initial separation load (critical load), initial separation distance, starting and end point of separation, and separation interval.

Yilmaz, Galip
The design of wavy structures and their mechanical implications on artificial blood vessels (ABVs) have been insufficiently studied in the existing literature. This research aims to explore the influence of various wavy geometric designs on the mechanical properties of ABVs and to establish a foundational framework for advancing and applying these designs. Computer-aided design (CAD) and finite element method (FEM) simulations, in conjunction with physical sample testing, were utilized. A geometric model incorporating concave and convex curves was developed and analyzed with a symbolic mathematical tool. Subsequently, a total of ten CAD models were subjected to increasing internal pressures using a FEM simulation to evaluate the expansion of internal areas. Additionally, physical experiments were conducted further to investigate the expansion of ABV samples under pressure. The results demonstrated that increased wave numbers significantly enhance the flexibility of ABVs. Samples with 22 waves exhibited a 45% larger area under 24 kPa pressure than those with simple circles. However, the increased number of waves also led to undesirable high-pressure gradients at elevated pressures. Furthermore, a strong correlation was observed between the experimental outcomes and the simulation results, with a notably low error margin, ranging from 19.88% to 3.84%. Incorporating wavy designs into ABVs can effectively increase both vessel flexibility and the internal area under pressure. Finally, it was found that expansion depending on the wave number can be efficiently modeled with a simple linear equation, which could be utilized in future designs.

Sahin, Sirri; Esteves, Bruno; Can, Ahmet; Sivrikaya, Hüseyin; Domingos, Idalina; Ferreira, José; Ayata, Ümit
Radiata pine boards were coated with two different methods A and B both beginning with a hydro primer and finishing with a mat oil but method A using an acrylic high gloss coating and method B three layers of an acrylic sealer in between. The samples were subjected to aging processes for 144 h, 288 h, and 432 h by using UV-A 340 nm lamps. The CIE L*a*b* and CIE L*C*H* coordinates were determined (L*, a*, b*, C*, ho*, ΔE*), gloss (perpendicular (⊥) and parallel (//) to the grain at 20°, 60°, and 85° angles) and surface adhesion strength via the pull-off method were tested before and after weathering. Results have shown that lightness (L*), decreases with weathering for both varnish applications with a higher decrease for the B coating system. Redness increased for both applications with no significant differences. At the same time there was a yellowing of the samples along the weathering period. Parallel and perpendicular gloss decreased for 20º and 60º angles while it increased for 85º angle. The adhesion strength of method A was higher and its decrease with weathering was smaller than for method B. Both varnish applications have proven to confer some protection against wood discoloration, but method A showed the best results and is therefore the best method to be used by radiata pine.

Özbilen, Uğur; Güven, Ahmet Zeki; Yiğit, Ömer; Kara, Ömer Tuğrul; Banaz, Emrullah
The main purpose of this study, explore the mediating role of career sustainability in the relationships between teacher self-efficacy, job satisfaction, and subjective well-being. Teachers should have an acceptable level of satisfaction regarding self-efficacy, career sustainability, and job satisfaction to secure well-being. In a sense, this claim mandates revealing the relationships between these variables. Accordingly, we collected data from 369 Turkish language teachers aged 24–55 years employed in public schools using the Teacher Self-Efficacy Scale, Short Index of Job Satisfaction, Career Sustainability Scale, and Subjective Well-Being Scale and tested a mediation model to seek answers to our hypotheses. We collected the data using an online questionnaire battery web-based survey (Google Forms) which was created using data collection measures and demographic items. After creating the survey using Google Forms, we distributed it through various channels such as email lists, social media platforms, and professional networks (e.g., teacher WhatsApp groups, teacher Telegram groups, etc.). Respondents were invited to participate in the survey voluntarily. The findings showed that career sustainability mediated the relationships between teacher self-efficacy, job satisfaction, and subjective well-being. Accordingly, we may claim that teachers with desirable career sustainability are likely to have increased job satisfaction and well-being, contributing to their self-efficacy. This research emphasises the essential significance of career sustainability in the overall well-being and work satisfaction of teachers. Future study should investigate treatments aimed at improving career sustainability and examine these linkages in other cultural settings.

Catar, Recep; Altun, Hikmet
In this study, corrosion and stress corrosion behaviors of AZ31, AZ61, and AZ91 magnesium alloys coated with aluminum by the electric arc spray method were investigated in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution. Structural properties of coated materials were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray analysis, and X-ray diffraction. Electrochemical properties were determined using the potentiodynamic polarization method in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution. Potentiodynamic polarization curves showed that corrosion current density values did not change with coating in aluminum-coated samples by the electric arc spray method. In contrast, corrosion potential value increased toward positive values. Slow strain rate test (SSRT) was used to determine the stress corrosion behavior and stress corrosion indexes (ISCC), ultimate tensile strength (UTS), and elongation of AZ31, AZ61, and AZ91 magnesium (Mg) alloys were determined. As a result of the SSRT, the aluminum coating process decreased significantly the stress corrosion indexes of AZ31, AZ61, and AZ91 Mg alloys. The fracture of surface images was also examined in the SEM, and both intergranular and transgranular stress corrosion cracking were observed in all three alloys.

In this study, Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus bulgaricus strains from traditional Turkish yoghurts were isolated, identified by 16S rRNA sequencing and genotypically 14 S. thermophilus and 6 L. bulgaricus strains were obtained as distinct strains by MLST analysis. Lactic acid production levels of the L. bulgaricus strains were higher than S. thermophilus strains. HPLC analysis showed that EPS monosaccharide composition of the strains mainly consisted of glucose and galactose. In general, all strains were found to be susceptible for antibiotics, except some strains were resistance to gentamicin and kanamycin. Apart from two strains of S. thermophilus, all strains displayed strong auto-aggregation level greater than 95% at 24 h incubation. S. thermophilus strains showed higher cell surface hydrophobicity than L. bulgaricus strains. This study demonstrated the isolation, identification, genotypic discrimination and techno-functional features of wild type yoghurt starter cultures which can potentially find place in industrial applications.

Hatipoğlu, Yavuz S.; Düzgün, Oğuz A.
The effectiveness of fluid viscous dampers (FVDs) on dynamic response mitigation of coupled two adjacent structures was investigated, considering soil-structure interaction (SSI) effects under earthquake excitation. A numerical procedure was employed to evaluate system response. The finite elements were used for the numerical treatment of the adjacent buildings and soil region. Viscous boundary conditions were used as special non-reflecting boundaries on the edges of finite soil region. According to the results, the FVDs were found to be very effective for dynamic response mitigation of the adjacent buildings, even if considering the soil medium. The results showed that the most affecting parameter on the system response was found to be soil type. It was also concluded that when adjacent structures coupled by FVDs, the maximum values of the roof displacements, the base shear forces, and the base bending moments could decrease up to around 50%. Changing in lateral stiffness of the one building has minor effects on the effectiveness of viscous dampers

Purpose: The possible effects of ramelteon, a melatonin receptor agonist on bleomycin-induced lung fibrosis were analyzed via transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1), the high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) and Nod-like receptor pyrin domain-containing 3 (NLRP3) which are related to the fibrosis process. Materials and methods: Bleomycin (0.1 mL of 5 mg/kg) was administered by intratracheal instillation to induce pulmonary fibrosis (PF). Starting 24 h after bleomycin administration, a single dose of ramelteon was administered by oral gavage to the healthy groups, i.e. PF + RM2 (pulmonary fibrosis model with bleomycin + ramelteon at 2 mg/kg) and PF + RM4 (pulmonary fibrosis model with bleomycin + ramelteon at 4 mg/kg) at 2 and 4 mg/kg doses, respectively. Real-time polymerase chain reaction (real-time PCR) analyses, histopathological, and immunohistochemical staining were performed on lung tissues. Lung tomography images of the rats were also examined. Results: The levels of TGF-β1, HMGB1, NLRP3, and interleukin 1 beta (IL-1β) mRNA expressions increased as a result of PF and subsequently decreased with both ramelteon doses (p < 0.0001). Both doses of ramelteon partially ameliorated the reduction in the peribronchovascular thickening, ground-glass appearances, and reticulations, and the loss of lung volume. Conclusions: The severity of fibrosis decreased with ramelteon application. These effects of ramelteon may be associated with NLRP3 inflammation cascade.

This study aimed to determine the effects of different types of fertilizers (organic and inorganic fertilizers) on plant growth, yield, and yield components of potatoes grown in the high-altitude plateau of eastern Türkiye in 2017 and 2019. In the experiment, single or combined doses of nitrogen (N; as ammonium sulfate) and phosphorus (P; as triple super phosphate) as inorganic fertilizers and leonardite (L) and vermicompost (V) fertilizers as organic fertilizers were used. In both years, different fertilizer treatments significantly affected plant growth, yield, and yield components. Tuber yield per hill (941.0 g), marketable tuber yield (32.71 t ha−1), total tuber yield (37.84 t ha−1), specific gravity (1. 077 g cm−3), chip productivity (35.9%), starch (13.03%) and protein (11.0%) ratios increased when N fertilizer was used in combination with vermicompost or leonardite. N fertilizer combined with V or L fertilizer increased tuber yield under harsh continental climates, short growth periods, and high altitudes.

Peker, Hüseyin; Ayata, Ümit
Olon wood is used internationally in plywood, furniture, interior carpentry, and mold making. In this study, the effects of wood bleaching chemicals (oxalic acid and H2O2+NaOH) on certain surface properties (color, glossiness, and whiteness index: WI*) of olon wood (Zanthoxylum heitzii) were investigated. The results of the bleached samples were compared with those of a control group. Based on the results obtained, it was determined that the variance analyses conducted for all tests in the study yielded statistically significant results. Application of both bleaching chemicals led to an increase in the ho and L* values. The ∆E* values were determined as 2.07 for the single-component and 10.30 for the double-component. In contrast, these parameters increased with the single-component bleach while the a*, b* and C* values decreased with the double-component wood bleach. The WI* values exhibited an increase in both directions when they were exposed to both bleaching chemicals. Both bleaching agents resulted in reductions in glossiness values at 85 degrees in both directions. Furthermore, there were declines with the single-component bleach and rises with the double-component bleach when measuring glossiness at 60 degrees in both directions.

Kutlu, Naciye; Pandiselvam, Ravi
Roasting is a process that involves heat treatment to improve the digestibility, flavor and sensory aspects of foods and to provide the desired structural changes in the food product. In the microwave roasting method, the heat treatment applied to food products uses microwave energy. When this method is applied with the right temperature-time combination, it has many advantages, such as shorter processing time, energy efficiency, preserving the color components and nutritional quality to a large extent, prevention of the formation of acrylamide to a large extent and offering easy process control compared to traditional methods (roasting in pan, sand or oven), and therefore it has come to the fore in recent studies. With appropriate optimization studies, the negative effects of the microwave method will be minimized. Studies are needed to adapt the microwave roasting method on an industrial scale. Designing new devices which can use artificial intelligence for microwave roasting, an innovative and economical method, is among research expectations for the future.

Recently, the rapid development of technology and the increase in energy costs and needs have made reducing the costs and efficient use of energy and exergy important. The thermoeconomic analysis method, which is the best cost analysis method of energy and exergy, gives the ways to reduce costs and increase efficiency that can be applied a facility. It has been found that the most suitable thermoeconomic solution for winter heating and summer cooling of a facility is a vertical underground source heat pump and the most high-performance working fluid that should be used is R32. If the heating is done with a ground source heat pump instead of electrical energy, 4.25 kW of heating energy will be obtained for each kW of electrical energy given for heating, since the costs are COPIP 4.25. Here the earnings increase by around 325%. In other words, heating costs decrease by around 77.5 percent, that is, from one hundred liras to 22. 5 liras.
