Aktağ, Işıl Gürsul; Hamzalıoğlu, Aytül; Kocadağlı, Tolgahan; Gökmen, Vural
The amount of acrylamide in asparagine rich thermally processed foods has been broadly monitored over the past two decades. Acrylamide exposure can be estimated by using the concentration of acrylamide found in foods and alternatively, biomarkers of exposure are correlated. A better estimation of dietary acrylamide exposure is crucial for a proper food safety assessment, regulations, and public health research. This review addresses the importance of the presence of neglected Maillard reaction intermediates found in foods, that may convert into acrylamide during digestion and the fate of acrylamide in the gastrointestinal tract as a reactive compound. Therefore, it is questioned in this review whether acrylamide concentration in ingested foods is directly correlated with the dietary exposure to acrylamide.

İncele - MakaleYalnız künye2022Scopus SJRQ1Performance evaluation of Turkish Universities by an integrated Bayesian BWM-TOPSIS model
Gul, Muhammet; Yucesan, Melih
This study aims to develop a university ranking model with the aid of performance measures in the “University monitoring and evaluation reports-2019” published by the Council of Higher Education Institution in Turkey. In this context, some of the performance criteria stated in these reports are filtered and 34 sub-criteria under five main criteria are weighted using the Bayesian Best-Worst Method (BBWM). Then, 189 listed public and private universities are ranked using the TOPSIS multicriteria decision-making (MCDM) method. We have adopted the MCDM concept because many evaluation criteria/sub-criteria and alternative universities are taken into account. For this study, we apply an integrated MCDM model. First, we use BBWM to accomplish the first goal and adopt the TOPSIS method for the second purpose, using the BBWM results. Our purpose in using BBWM is due to its probabilistic structure that reduces the loss of information when handling group decisions. In this context, the evaluations of 11 academic experts are combined and a solid weighting is made by obtaining the credal rankings of performance criteria. Using TOPSIS is its logic of proximity to ideal and the ability to evaluate many alternatives. In the context of the study, state-private university-based, nomenclature of territorial units for statistics-2 (NUTS-2)-based and classical geographical regions-based rankings are also discussed. The study seeks to help universities optimize their performance efficiently. The results of the study can be adapted as a reference for other educational institutions and public institutions in their efforts to evaluate, improve their performance and form various policies.

Özçiçek, Esin; Can, Erkan; Yılmaz, Ökkeş
In this study, fatty acids, fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K vitamins) and cholesterol contents of wild-caught and farm-raised rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) were compared. The amounts of docosahexaenoic acid (22:6 n-3, DHA) in wild and farmed forms were 21.56%–18.14%, 18.79%–16.21% and 14.34%–11.49% in April, May and June, respectively. Vitamin E, which is one of the fat-soluble and antioxidant vitamins, showed highest level among the vitamins. Vitamin E levels in both wild and farmed fish were 5.11–4.26, 4.83–2.89 and 0.99–1.95 mg/100 g in April, May and June, respectively. The substantial difference between wild and farmed rainbow trout was found in May (p < 0.05). In conclusion, both wild and farmed rainbow trout from Keban Dam Lake (Pertek Region) can be considered as good sources of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA). However, it was observed that the n-3 PUFA level in wild form was higher than the culture fish within the investigated monthly periods. On the other hand, farmed fish demonstrated higher levels of n-6 PUFA over the wild individuals.

Pekdemir, Mustafa Ersin; Tanyol, Mehtap; Torğut, Gülben
In this study, poly (ε-caprolactone)/Fe3O4 magnetic nanocomposite (PCL/Fe3O4 MNC) was synthesized by ring-opening polymerization. Then, PCL/Fe3O4 MNC was used as a novel adsorbent to remove remazol brilliant violet 5R (RBV 5R) from the aqueous media. The effects of PCL/Fe3O4 MNC dosage, process time, and initial RBV 5R concentration on the removal of RBV 5R were studied using the central composite design (CCD) method. The adsorption process was optimized using the response surface methodology, and the optimum conditions were defined. Optimum RBV 5R removal of 95.40% was obtained at a contact time of 167.98 min, PCL/Fe3O4 MNC dosage of 0.40 g, and RBV 5R concentration of 7.18 mg L−1. The process was also designed using the adsorption kinetic models and isotherm. The experimental data of RBV 5R adsorption on PCL/Fe3O4 MNC followed the Langmuir isotherm and pseudo-second-order kinetic models than the other models. Morphological and chemical properties of the adsorbent-adsorbate system indicated the high adsorption yield of RBV 5R on PCL/Fe3O4 MNC was achieved. The structural characteristics of the PCL/Fe3O4 MNC were analyzed by Fourier-transform infrared, attenuated total-reflectance (ATR), and X-ray diffraction. ATR tests showed that no significant change in chemical bond is found in PCL/Fe3O4 MNC before and after the adsorption process. The morphology of composites was investigated by scanning electron microscopy. A vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) was used for the measurement of the magnetic property. Thermal analysis of MNC was studied using thermogravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimetry instruments.

Gürler, Nedim; Torğut, Gülben
In this study, polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) and polylactic acid (PLA)-Graphene (G) nanocomposite films were synthesized by taking different concentrations of G via the solution casting process, and their structural, mechanical, opacity, thermal and dielectric properties were examined for the first time. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used for investigating surface morphology. Films containing graphene were more opaque than films without graphene. The incorporation of graphene into the polymer matrix improved the mechanical property. The tensile strengths of the control PHA/PLA film and the graphene-reinforced 1 %G-PHA/PLA nanocomposite films were 18.98 and 24.34 MPa, respectively. Thermogravimetric analysis results showed that PHA/PLA−G nanocomposites had good thermal stability below 300 °C. Considering the dielectric measurements, it is seen that the dielectric constant (έ) and dielectric loss (ϵ”) decreased with increasing frequency and less changed at higher frequencies. The developer feature of graphene is remarkable in both parameters. The electrical conductivity of PHA/PLA−G nanocomposites was also examined as a function of frequency at room temperature. As the amount of G increased from 1 %wt to 5 %wt, the conductivity of the composites increased.

Ustundag, Aybike; Gencer, Cetin
The number of forest fires has increased significantly in recent years. Interventions to forest fires from air and land are very difficult and dangerous. In addition, since these interventions are time-consuming, forest fire can spread to a much wider area. In this study, an automatic fire extinguishing system was designed using SCADA for 5 forest regions up to 5 hectares. In the event of a fire in the system, the smoke sensor in the fire area becomes active and the IP camera image in this area is displayed on the screen. The pressurized water flushing tap, which automatically rotates 360 degrees, works in the area. If desired, automatic operation can be canceled and manually adjusted water flushing tap can be operated. The system gives a warning when the tank water drops below 1 ton. The aim of this study is to automatically intervene early in any fire that may occur in the forest and to control the fire before it spreads.

In this study, three hybrids of Origanum (Lamiaceae) were examined in detail using morphological, karyological, palynological and molecular approaches. One of the three hybrids, O. × aytacii, is here described for the first time, and is compared with its putative parents, O. sipyleum and O. vulgare subsp. hirtum. In addition to morphological, karyological and palynological features, we also examined nuclear ribosomal DNA (ITS) sequences of O. × intermedium (O. onites × O. sipyleum), O. × intercedens (O. onites × O. vulgare subsp. hirtum) and their purported parental species that share the same area with the new hybrid. Pollen grains were hexacolpate and isopolar. The range of Polar/Equatorial ratio (P/E) of pollen for investigated taxa varied from 0.74 to 0.99. All investigated taxa are diploid with a chromosome number as 2n = 30. According to molecular results, O. × aytacii was the most polymorphic taxon. In addition, DNA sequences showed that O. × intercedens was more similar to O. vulgare subsp. hirtum than to O. onites, and O. × intermedium was more similar to O. onites than to O. sipyleum. Furthermore, O. onites and O. vulgare subsp. hirtum have many different ITS haplotypes, probably resulting from backcrossing with different individuals. Results obtained in this study demonstrate that hybridization has played a major role in the process of Origanum speciation.

Gul, Muhammet; Guneri, Ali Fuat
The increased focus of people on the quality of health care in recent years has led hospital owners to develop strategies and policies to improve medical services through the establishment of new hospitals. For hospitals to be competitive, the hospital's location and proximity to potential patients are considered crucial factors in establishing new hospitals. In this context, evaluating and selecting the most suitable hospital location to establish a new hospital from the multicriteria decision-making (MCDM) perspective is a priority for the entrepreneurs or government to gain a competitive advantage. Therefore, this study aims to present a systematic literature review of the hospital location selection problem considering the applied methods and application areas. The preferred reporting items for systematic review and meta-analysis statement (PRISMA) are used as a reference framework. Initially, known electronic databases (Web of science, IEEEXplore, Scopus, Science direct, and Google Scholar) were searched up to the early 2021. A number of 47 articles are selected and analyzed under this systematic framework based on inclusion-exclusion points. State-of-the-art developments in adopting MCDM methods and their fuzzy extensions are summarized. All the articles have been examined in a systematic taxonomy to find answers to six research questions (trend, country of origin, outlet journal, MCDM methods used, MCDM environment and criteria type, and decision criteria used). Results show that (1) AHP and GISbased MCDM models are the most contributing approaches to the solution of this problem, (2) location selection criteria are mostly cost, demand, environment, population, government, competition in the market, and distance to some important places, (3) the fuzzy structure is also preferred in addition to the MCDM structure depending on the crisp data type, and (4) the location selection criteria are mostly considered subjective. We pay attention to promising directions that can dominate future research in this field from a methodological or applicability perspective. This study shows the current views and opportunities for researchers and practitioners and acts as a guide to encourage more creative studies in this field.

The objective of this study were to identify the fatty acid composition for decanoic (C10:0), tridecanoic (C13:0), myristic (C14:0), pentadecanoic (C15:0), palmitic (C16:0), stearic (C18:0), oleic (C18:1n9c), linoleic (C18:2n6c), arachidic (C20:0), arachidonic (C20:4n6), heneicosanoic (C21:0), erucic (C22:1n9) and Cis-4,7,10,13,16,19-docosahexaenoic (C22:6n3) acids by Neocallimastix, Orpinomyces, Caecomyces and Piromyces species of rumen fungus during in vitro culture. Fatty acid (FA) profile of anaerobic fungi comprises carbon chains of length ranging from 10 to 22 were analyzed as methyl esters. Analysis of fatty acids was performed using Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrophotometer (GC-MS). FA measures are presented as proportions of relative amounts (% total fatty acid). The highest amounts of fatty acids for all samples were found as myristic (C14:0) acid. The tridecanoic (C13:0) acid represented the second abundant FA in the fungi in all experimental groups. Stearic acid (C18:0) was the third major fatty acid for isolates investigated in the current study. In addition, another fatty acid was palmitic (C16:0) acid with relative amount representing >20% of total FA in all samples. Pentadecanoic (C15:0) acid could not be found in any other samples except Orpinomyces sp. (GMLF5). It is concluded that biohydrogenation of fatty acid composition by anaerobic gut fungi are very variable.

The pollen morphology of eight endemic species of the genus Inula L. (Asteraceae)–I. helenium subsp. orgyalis (Boiss.) Grierson, I. helenium subsp. vanensis Grierson, I. macrocephala Boiss. & Kotschy ex Boiss., I. discoidea Boiss., I. sarana Boiss., I. fragilis Boiss. & Hausskn., I. anatolica Boiss. and I. sechmenii Hartvig & Strid–distributed in Turkey was studied with light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. We found that the pollen of these Inula taxa are prolate-spheroidal in shape (except in Inula discoidea), with the polar axis ranging from 19.18 to 33.14 µm and the equatorial diameter ranging from 18.54 to 32.92 µm. The pollen grains are tricolporate and their ornamentation is echinate. The exine thickness ranges from 0.87 to 2.07 µm. As this study demonstrates, results of Principal Component Analysis are revealed that some of the pollen characters, such as spine length and width, are significant morphological characters for taxonomic discrimination of the eight endemic Inula taxa. According to cluster analysis, two main groups of examined taxa are constituted.

Natural products have historically been invaluable as a premium source of therapeutic agents. Recent advancements in genomics and structural biology have portrayed a high-resolution landscape of the diversity of proteins targeted by pharmacologically active products from natural sources. Natural product research has generated valuable wealth of information and cutting-edge research-works have leveraged our conceptual knowledge altogether to a new level. Wogonin (5,7-dihydroxy-8-methoxyflavone) is an O-methylated flavone and has attracted noteworthy appreciation because of its ability to pharmacologically target plethora of cell signaling pathways in different cancers. In this mini-review, we have gathered scattered pieces of available scientific evidence to summarize how wogonin pharmaceutically targeted Wnt/β-catenin, JAK/STAT, VEGF/VEGFR and TRAIL-driven apoptotic pathways in wide variety of cancers. We have also critically analyzed how wogonin prevented carcinogenesis and metastasis in tumor-bearing mice. Although researchers have uncovered pleiotropic role of wogonin in the regulation of different oncogenic signaling cascades but there are visible knowledge gaps in our understanding related to regulation of non-coding RNAs by wogonin. Future studies must converge on the unraveling of additional drug targets for wogonin to achieve a fuller and realistic understanding of the chemopreventive properties of wogonin.

Gürler, Nedim; Torğut, Gülben
In this study, PSG composite films were prepared by casting method by adding graphene (G) to glycerol plasticized potato starch (PS) films. The structure and properties of the composite films were investigated attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR), X-ray analysis (XRD), and swelling capacity, total soluble matter, transparency, tensile strength, and electrical conductivity. When the G content of PSG composite films increased from 0% to 1%, tensile strength increased from 1.035 MPa to 1.681 MPa, but decreased to 1.175 MPa in composite films containing 2% G. It also increased electrical conductivity when the G concentration increased. Also, the G layers are among the PS films and their swelling and solubility properties are reduced. With increased G concentration, the light transmittance decreased and the films were more opaque. These improvements can refer to the interface interaction between PS and G.

Background/aim: This study was conducted to elucidate the effects of lutein/zeaxanthin isomers (L/Zi) on lipid metabolism, oxidative stress, NF-κB/Nrf2 pathways, and synaptic plasticity proteins in trained rats. Materials and methods: Wistar rats were distributed into four groups: 1) control, 2) L/Zi: rats received L/Zi at the dose of 100 mg/kg by oral gavage, 3) exercise, 4) exercise+L/Zi: rats exercised and received L/Zi (100 mg/kg) by oral gavage. The duration of the study was eight weeks. Results: Exercise combined with L/Zi reduced lipid peroxidation and improved antioxidant enzyme activities of muscle and cerebral cortex in rats (p < 0.001). In the Exercise + L/Zi group, muscle and cerebral cortex Nrf2 and HO-1 levels increased, while NF-κB levels decreased (p <0.001). Also, L/Zi improved BDNF, synapsin I, SYP, and GAP-43 levels of the cerebral cortex of trained rats (p < 0.001). The highest levels of BDNF, synapsin SYP, and GAP-43 in the cerebral cortex were determined in the Exercise+L/Zi group. Conclusion: These results suggested that exercise combined with L/Zi supplementation might be effective to reduce neurodegeneration via improving neurotrophic factors and synaptic proteins, and oxidative capacity in the cerebral cortex.

Free radicals are responsible for many health problems, especially oxidative stress-related diseases. With conscious nutrition and the use of natural antioxidants, it is now possible to cope with these diseases or minimize their effects. The aim of this study was to determine pH, total acidity, total SO2, free SO2, relative SO2, dry matter, density, alcohol content, reducing sugar, ash, CUPRAC, DPPH free radical scavenging capacity, total phenolic content, elemental composition, and some phenolic compounds of Syriac (Mardin) wines. Estimated daily intake (EDI), target hazard quotients (THQ), total target hazard quotients (TTHQ), and relative risk (RR) were calculated, to assess a health risk resulting from regular consumption of Syriac wines. The elements EDI values through consumption of wines were less than the recommended dietary allowance values. Obtained THQ values were less than 1. When the obtained results are compared with the levels set by regulatory authorities, the investigated wine consumption does not pose a toxicological risk based on EDI, THQ, TTHQ, and RR values. In addition, this study showed that the Syriac wine’s antioxidant capacities are high and rich in phenolic compounds and elements.
