Can, Safak Seyhaneyildiz; Cirik, Semra; Koru, Edis; Turan, Gamze; Tekogul, Hatice; Subakan, Tugba
Efficient biofuel production from algae depends on the microalgal biomass production rate and lipid content. Both biomass production and lipid accumulation are limited by several factors, of which nutrients play a key role. In this study, the marine microalgae Dunaliella bardawil was used as a model organism. D. bardawil was cultured at two different sodium nitrate concentrations as 0 and 0.7 M, at six different amounts of salinity as 0.65, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.75 and 3.5 M, and at two different light intensity levels as 65 and 800 mu mol foton m(-2) s(-1) The study was done under pH 7. After 15-day growth period, the most efficient culture of D. bardawil for both biomass increase and lipid production was determined for the samples with 39.67 +/- 4.51 lipid rates cultured under 0.7 M nitrate concentration, 2.75 M salinity and 800 mu mol photon m(-2) sn(-1) light intensity. This high level of lipid production is sufficient to use D. bardawil for biodiesel production. Also after the evaluation of fatty acid results of GC-FID analysis, it was determined that D. bardawil contains high rate of medium length (C16-C18) fatty acid chains suitable for the production of biodiesel. These results are satisfactory to use D. bardawil in biodiesel production.

Kiliç, Fatih; Sarici-Özdemir, Cigdem
In this study, adsorption of methylene blue from aqueous solution onto peanut shell has been investigated. Experimental data obtained from dye adsorption have been studied by five two-parameter (Langmuir, Freundlich, Dubinin-Radushkevich, Temkin, and Frumkin) and five three-parameter (Redlich-Peterson, Sips, Toth, Radke-Prausnitz, and Koble-Corrigan) isotherm models. Eight nonlinear error functions (sum squares errors, hybrid fractional error function, Marquardt's percent standard deviation, average relative error, sum of absolute error, the coefficient of determination, nonlinear chi-square test, and standard deviation of relative errors) were examined for isotherm equations. In order to explain the adsorption kinetics fit of pseudo-first-order, pseudo-second-order, Elovich, and intraparticle kinetic models were used. The best fitting isotherm model was the Radke-Prausnitz and kinetics model was pseudo-second-order. Adsorption experiment showed that the maximum capacity of agricultural waste for methylene blue was 67.57 L.g(-1) at 25 degrees C.

Kundmannia anatolica HUB.-MOR. and Kundmannia syriaca BOISS. are two endemic species of Apiaceae diversified in Turkey. In the present study, the essential oil composition and antimicrobial activity of these endemic species collected from Southeast Anatolia region of Turkey were investigated. Essential oils of aerial parts were obtained by hydro distillation method and analyzed by GC-MS/FID. Acetone, chloroform and methanol extracts of aerial parts of the plants were tested against seven bacteria and three yeasts by disc diffusion method for antimicrobial assays and minimum inhibition concentrations (MIC) were determined. Spathulenol, curdione, apritone, germacrene-d and- (-) globulol were the major components of K. anatolica. In the essential oil of K. syriaca, spathulenol, germacrene-d, bioallethrin, 12-norcyercene-B and beta methadol were determined as the main compounds. The most abundant compound of K anatolica and K. syriaca was spathulenol with 17.40%-19.53% ratio in the GC-MS and 19.7%, 24.99% ratio in GC-FID results, respectively. Aerial parts extracts of K. anatolica and K. syriaca exhibited remarkable antimicrobial activity to all tested microorganisms except for Candida albicans. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Theileria annulata is an apicomplexan parasite which is responsible for tropical theileriosis in cattle. Due to resistance of T. annulata against commonly used antitheilerial drug, new drug candidates should be identified urgently. Enolase might be a druggable protein candidate which has an important role in glycolysis, and could also be related to several cellular functions as a moonlight protein. In this study; we have described three-dimensional models of open and closed conformations of T. annulata enolase by homology modeling method for the first time with the comprehensive domain, active site and docking analyses. Our results show that the enolase has similar folding patterns within enolase superfamily with conserved catalytic loops and active site residues. We have described specific insertions, possible plasminogen binding sites, electrostatic potential surfaces and positively charged pockets as druggable regions in T. annulate enolase.

Gul, Muhammet; Celik, Erkan; Gumus, Alev Taskin; Guneri, Ali Fuat
Emergency departments (EDs) have an important position in healthcare system environment because of their serviceability to the patients with several illnesses and injuries at all hours of the day and night. Therefore, efficient management of these departments by executives and service providers is only possible with effective tools such as simulation. The concept of multiple criteria decision-making (MCDM) is applicable by computer simulation for decision analysis and performance evaluation of an ED. This study proposes an integration of computer simulation, MCDM methods of interval type-2 fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (IT2FAHP), and ELECTRE for an ED system in a university hospital. Due to the high uncertainty in ED operations, interval type-2 fuzzy sets (IT2FSs) are used in MCDM process. Consequently, the integrated method can be used as a useful tool to evaluate the ED performance and select the best scenario considering different numbers of nurses and doctors for three shifts.

The purpose of this study was to examine the changes to occur in egg production, egg quality traits, hatchability, and oxidative stress parameters of laying quails fed with high calorie diets and effect of milk thistle (Silybum marianum) seed on these changes. A total of 75 45-day-old quails including 60 females and 15 males were used in the study. The quails were divided into 5 groups with three repetitions. 4 females and 1 male were used in each repetition. The groups of the study were arranged as following; control group (C) consuming corn-soybean based basal diet, oil group (SFO) in which 5% sun flower oil was added into basal diet, oil + milk thistle group (SFO+MT) in which 5% sun flower oil + 1% milk thistle seed was added into basal diet, syrup group (CS) in which 10% corn syrup was added into basal diet, and syrup + milk thistle group (CS+MT) in which 10% corn syrup + 1% milk thistle was added into basal diet. Total egg production was found to be significantly higher in SFO and SFO+MT groups of present study (P<0.05). Feed intake, total egg weight and feed conversion were found similar among the groups (P>0.05). The differences among the groups in albumen rate, yolk rate, dried shell rate and shape index were not statistically significant (P>0.05). The best yolk colour was obtained in SFO+MT and CS groups (P<0.01). There were no statistically differences among the groups in hatchability, hatchability of fertile and embrionic mortality (P>0.05), but the difference in examined fertility were statistically significant (P<0.05). Malonyl dialdehyde (MDA) values of blood, liver and heart tissues were similar among the groups of study (P>0.05). MDA level of kidney significantly increased in CS group, however addition of milk thistle seed into diet was reduced MDA level of kidney in CS+MT group (P<0.01). High calorie diets caused changes in antioxidant system in blood and tissues. Consequently, high-calorie basal diets especially addition of SFO improved only egg production and fertility rate. However feeding quails with corn syrup had significantly higher lipid peroxidation in kidney. Supplementation of milk thistle seed into CS group may protect kidney against free radical damage.

Celik, Erkan; Gumus, Alev Taskin
After a disaster occurs, national and international non-governmental humanitarian relief organizations (NGOs), as well as the governmental humanitarian relief organizations (GOs), are involved in carrying out the humanitarian relief operations because of insufficiency in recourses such as lack of equipment and human resources. GOs and NGOs play a crucial role in preparedness and response to natural disasters, especially when available resources of them are not enough. The preparedness and response ability of GOs and NGOs aim to minimize the losses and number of affected people. Therefore, the preparedness and response ability of NGOs are becoming more important to support governmental relief activities. In this paper, a hybrid approach, that consists of interval type-2 fuzzy sets, AHP and PROMETHEE, is proposed to evaluate emergency preparedness and response ability performances of NGOs. The proposed hybrid approach is applied to NGOs in Turkey to evaluate their performances, and is conducted in three phases: (1) determination of critical success factors (CSFs) of humanitarian relief logistics management operations, (2) application of interval type-2 fuzzy AHP for obtaining importance weights of CSFs and (3) application of PROMETHEE based on interval type-2 fuzzy sets to evaluate preparedness and response abilities of NGOs.

Celik, E.; Akyuz, E.
Accident analyse in marine industry is one of the critical issues for safety practitioners to prevent loss of life. Although considerable efforts were undertaken to prevent marine accident, numerous researches revealed that marine accidents are still on-going. In order to minimize accidents in the marine transportation, this paper presents a proactive decisionmaking tool which is integrating Decision-Making Trail and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) method with interval type-2 fuzzy sets (IT2FSs). As the DEMATEL enables to analyse cause and effect relationship in decision-making, the IT2FSs overcome ambiguity and vagueness of linguistic assessment of decision-makers through the DEMATEL. Thus, significant accident causal factors and their effects can be analysed on the basis of cause-effect diagram. The application of proposed approach is demonstrated with a real ship collision case. Beside its theoretical contribution, the proposed approach provides practical benefits to ship owners and operators to perceive cause and effect relationship and to avoid marine accident.

Çimen, Okay; Göncüoğlu, M. Cemal; Sayit, Kaan
The Cangaldağ Complex in northern central Turkey is one of the main tectonic units of the Central Pontide Structural Complex that represents the remains of the poorly known Intra-Pontide branch of the Neotethys. It comprises low-grade metamorphic rocks of intrusive, extrusive, and volcaniclastic origin displaying a wide range of felsic to mafic compositions. Petrographically the complex consists of basalts-andesites-rhyodacites and tuffs with minor amount of gabbros and diabases. On the basis of geochemistry, the Cangaldağ samples are of subalkaline character and represented by both primitive and evolved members. All rock types are variably depleted in Nb compared to LREEs, similar to the lavas from subduction-related tectonic settings. In N-MORB normalized plots, the primitive members are separated into 3 groups on the basis of levels of enrichment. The first group is highly depleted and displays characteristics of boninitic lavas. The second group is relatively enriched compared to the first group but still more depleted than N-MORB. The third group, however, is the most enriched one among the three, whose level of enrichment is around that of N-MORB. The overall geochemical features suggest that the Cangaldağ Complex has been generated with the involvement of a subductionmodified mantle source. The chemistry of the primitive members further indicates that the melts generated for the formation of the Cangaldağ Complex probably occurred in both arc and back-arc regions above an intraoceanic subduction within the Intra-Pontide branch of the Neotethys.

The oldest independent Greek Orthodox Patriarchates within the Ottoman Empire were those in Constantinople, Antioch, Alexandria and Jerusalem. Among these four patriarchates, the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate of Jerusalem continues to preserve the highest status among the Patriarchates of Jerusalem as the oldest and largest church in Palestine. The history of Patriarchate goes back to Jesus as evident from the writings of the Apostles. Eastern Roman Empire granted autonomy in the local hierarchy of eastern churches at the council of Chalcedon in 451. Thus, the Greek Patriarchate of Jerusalem was established. The Greek Patriarchate of Jerusalem always had a special kind of symbolic influence, and importance for the universal Christian imagination, chiefly as the site of holy places where the Lord taught, suffered, and ascended to Heavens again. Patriarchate, which fell under Ottomans rule in the reign of Sultan Selim, was granted many privileges and exemptions. These exemptions and concessions continued until the collapse of the State. The patriarchate, too, was a beneficiary to the changes brought about by the 1856 Reform Edict and regulations of the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate of Jerusalem were drafted in 1875. In this paper, the foundation, general structure, and the regulations of 1875 will be discussed.

Akyuz, Emre; Celik, Erkan
Gas freeing process in crude oil tanker ships is widely recognized one of the most hazardous aspects of shipboard operations. Although the process provides practical benefits to ship by removing the explosive or poisonous gases from the cargo tanks and raising the oxygen level up to 21 percent, the consequences of failure may cause serious damage to human health, marine environment and cargo. Therefore, the crew exercise utmost care and become aware of the potential hazards in gas freeing process. In this context, this paper provides a fuzzy DEMATEL (Decision Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory) method to evaluate critical operational hazards in gas freeing process. While the DEMATEL method enables to identify and analyse the potential hazards of gas freeing process with respect to causal effect relation diagram, fuzzy sets deal with the uncertainty in decision-making and human judgements through the DEMATEL. Thus, the hybrid approach provides smart solution for safety practitioners to prevent critical hazards in gas freeing process. The results of the research will contribute to maritime safety at sea and prevention of environment pollution as well as loss of life on-board crude oil tankers ships. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd.

Kutluyer, Filiz; Ögretmen, Fatih; Inanan, Burak Evren
BACKGROUND: Amino acids protect spermatozoa against cell damage during cryopreservation due to have antioxidant property and found in seminal plasma at high concentration. OBJECTIVE: The aim of the present work was to analyse the effect of extender supplementation with L-methionine on post-thawed sperm motility, duration and DNA damage and also it was tested the feasibility of using straws and pellets method for the cryopreservation of goldfish (Carassius auratus) sperm. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Extenders were supplemented with different L-methionine concentrations of 1 mM; 1.5 mM; 3 mM; 6 mM. Semen samples diluted at the ratio of 1:9 by the extenders were subjected to cryopreservation. After dilution the semen was aspirated into 0.25 ml straws and 0.1 ml pellets, the straws and pellets were placed on the tray, frozen in nitrogen vapor and plunged into liquid nitrogen. DNA damage was determined with comet assay after cryopreservation.. RESULTS: Our results indicated that an increase in the concentration of L-methionine caused a significant increase in the motility rate and duration of sperm in goldfish (C. auratus) (p<0.05). In addition, duration and percentage of motility in pellets were higher than in straws. Comparing all concentrations of L-methionine, the best concentration of L-methionine was 1.5 mM. Highest post-thaw motility (45.00 +/- 7.07%) and duration of motility (17.00 +/- 0.71s) were obtained with the extender at concentration 1.5 mM in pellets. Addition of the extender with L-methionine was reduced DNA damage compared to control group. CONCLUSION: Consequently, pellets could be use for goldfish sperm cryopreservation and the tested amino acid affected the motility parameters, and semen extenders could be supplement with L-methionine.

Biodecolorization of Congo red dye in both agar-plate and agitated liquid culture mediums by newly isolated white rot fungus Pleurotus eryngii has been studied. This fungus isolated from Tunceli-Ovacik province of Turkey. We have also examined the chemical oxygen demand reduction after decolorization under agitated liquid culture medium. For agar plate screening the decolorization capacity of P. eryngii, growth and decolorization halos were determined on saboroud dextrose agar (SDA) plates containing 0.05, 0.1, 0.5, 1 and 2 g/l of Congo red. P. eryngii showed certain decolorization capacities and was able to decolorize all studied concentrations of Congo red, but not to the same extent. Our results indicated that the new isolate P. eryngii had maximum decolorization (87% at 100 mg/l initial dye concentration) and chemical oxygen demand reduction (82% at 25 mg/l initial dye concentration) activities after 7 days under agitated submerged culture conditions. This new isolate could be an effective bioremediation tool for treatment of Congo red containing textile wastewater.
