Koçak, Berna; İpek, Yeliz
In this study, the surface of the glassy carbon electrode was modified with glutardialdehyde. The modified glassy carbon electrode showed electrocatalytic activity against ivermectin. The glassy carbon electrode modified with glutardialdehyde showed high sensitivity, selectivity, and stability in the determination of ivermectin. The peak current of glutardialdehyde oxidation obtained by differential pulse voltammetry decreased inversely with the ivermectin concentration. Ivermectin inhibited the oxidation reaction of glutardialdehyde and caused a decrease in current. This change made the analysis of ivermectin electrochemically possible. In order to demonstrate the applicability of the developed method in real samples, recovery studies were carried out in tap water and urine. The highest sensitivity (0.45 µA/((µmol·L−1)(cm2))) was achieved with urine sample and the lowest detection limit as 2.66 × 10−6 mol·L−1 was obtained with BRT solution sample.

As the safety and effectiveness of synthetic drugs remain in doubt, researchers are trying to develop natural medicines from medicinal plants. Herein, ethyl acetate, methanol and water extracts from the Heracleum humile plant were obtained by an ultrasonic-assisted extraction process and the aim was to evaluate some biological effects of the extracts due to the limited data on the pharmacological properties of Heracleum humile in the literature. Weak antibacterial activity was observed on tested bacterial species. The minimum inhibitory concentration and the minimum bactericidal concentration values ranged from 250 to 500 μg/mL. In addition, cytotoxic activity was determined using the MTT test. The strongest findings were determined for ethyl acetate extract on the MDA-MB-231 cell lines at the 48th hour (IC50:97.94 μg/mL), followed by the MCF-7 cell lines at the 24th hour (IC50:103.9 μg/mL). All extracts of Heracleum humile contained mainly flavonoids, phenolic acids and their derivatives, i. e., well-known compounds that possess numerous biological activities such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, antimicrobial etc. The study results could provide important information that Heracleum humile could be a potential candidate as a natural enzyme inhibitor. It can be concluded that these extracts could be useful in the elementary step of improving novel plant-derived multifunctional pharmaceuticals.

Aslan, N.; Aksakal, B.; Aksoy, M.E.
Boron doped (5 %, 10%, and 15 wt.%) Hydroxyapatite (B-HA) biocomposites were syntesized and coated on 316L SS and NiTi (Ni-45Ti) metallic substrates by using the electrophoretic deposition process (EPD). The morphological and structural characterization of the coatings was executed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction devices (XRD). Antibacterial tests were conducted using Escherichia coli (E. coli, JM103) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus, ATCC29293) microorganisms. The mitochondrial activity assay (MTT)-[3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide] was used to examine cell viability and cytotoxicity in Saos-2 osteoblast cells. HA and boron peaks, as well as B-TCP and metallic components, were detected in XRD examinations. Porous morphologies were generated on the surface with boron doped B-HA coatings, as revealed by SEM views. Antibacterial activity studies revealed that both metallic coating groups, notably with boron doping, demonstrated antibacterial activity against gram-negative E. coli and gram-positive S. aureus. The antibacterial activity of the 316L group was shown to be better than that of the NiTi group in comparisonal testing. The syntesized boron-doped biocomposite coatings did not have any detrimental effects on living cells, according to cell viability studies. The cell viability rate was found to be greater in NiTi coatings than in 316 SS coatings, and the impact was amplified by the addition of boron.

Polat, E.G.
Coronavirus disease 2019 brings about the economic damage and loss of life. Thus, demand of personal protective equipment continues to increase, consequently an increase in infectious equipment pollution. Most of these wastes threaten the environment and increase the spread of diseases. This paper provides a research hypothesis whether effective medical waste management would prevent the possible impacts of coronavirus disease 2019-related waste issues on environment at the city level. To confirm this hypothesis, installation of waste treatment centre is addressed. Then, by incorporating uncertain waste generation amounts utilizing Jimenez method, a pickup routing is addressed to decide the pickup routes between the waste treatment centre and residential area. This study is first to assign the optimistic, realistic and pessimistic scenarios of the uncertain waste generation using time series analysis method and waste generation formulation. Also, L-type matrix is used to define, assess and prioritize the environmental and operational risks on waste generation formulation and to provide risk reaction strategies. Practicality of these approaches is illustrated in the case of Turkey. The computational results reveal the effectiveness of the integrated method, which ensures practical and theoretical insights controlling the waste generation to prevent virus propagation for health authorities.

Ortiz-Barrios, Miguel; Gul, Muhammet; Yucesan, Melih; Alfaro-Sarmiento, Isaac; Navarro-Jiménez, Eduardo; Jiménez-Delgado, Genett
The recent increase in the number of disasters over the world has once again brought to the agenda the question of preparedness of the hospitals, which are the most necessary units of healthcare pillar to resist these disasters. The COVID-19 epidemic disease, which has affected the whole world, has caused a large number of people to die in some countries simply because of the inadequate and incomplete planning and lack of readiness of hospitals. For this reason, determining the disaster preparedness level of hospitals is an important issue that needs to be studied and it is important in terms of disaster damage reduction. In this study, a fuzzy hybrid decision-making framework is proposed to assess hospital disaster preparedness. The framework covers three important decision-making methods. For the first phase, Intuitionistic Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (IF-AHP) is used to assign relative weights for several disaster preparedness criteria considering uncertainty. Secondly, Intuitionistic Fuzzy Decision Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (IF-DEMATEL) is applied to identify interrelations among these criteria and feedback. Finally, via the VlseKriterijumska Optimizacija I Kompromisno Resenje (VIKOR) method, priorities of hospitals regarding disaster readiness are obtained. A case study involving the participation of 10 Colombian tertiary hospitals is carried out to show the applicability of this fuzzy hybrid approach.

Medicinal plants have been used by humans for the treatment of various diseases for thousands of years from past to present. Members of the Lamiaceae family are among the most preferred medicinal plants due to the wide variety of secondary components they contain, particularly essential oils. In this review, Master’s and PhD theses and books based on ethnobotanical studies investigated between 1960 and 2021 as well as internationally recognized databases (PubMed, Scopus, Google Scholar, Web of Science, SciFinder, Springer and Elsevier) were used to determine the medicinal uses of Lamiaceae taxa among the people in Turkey. As a result of the study, it was found that a total of 221 taxa (192 species) belonging to 29 genera, 51 of which are endemic, have medicinal/therapeutic uses. The local names of these taxa, the usage which are used among the people, the diseases in which they are used, and the geographical regions given in the present study. The genera of taxa most commonly used for medicinal purposes by the local people are Salvia (37 taxa), Sideritis (25 taxa), Stachys (22 taxa), Thymus (16 taxa) and Origanum (13 taxa). It was observed that the most frequently used two methods while preparing these plants for use was infusion (61%), and decoction (24%). Studies conducted on National (TURK, BHP), Regional (EU) and International Pharmacopoeias (WHO) and various monographs (AHP, COMISSION E, EMA, ESCOP, PDR) have revealed that there are 29 taxa included in these pharmacopoeias and monographs whose purpose of use are similar to the diseases that local people are trying to treat. Diseases that people use plants for therapeutic purposes are grouped into 12 categories. It was determined that these plants were widely used for therapeutic purposes in gastric disorders as well as otolaryngology and respiratory system diseases. This review briefly discusses whether some taxa commonly used by the local people in the treatment of diseases can be useful in the treatment of the disease in question, in the light of scientific studies.

Kocabaş, Filiz Kutluyer; Kocabaş, Mehmet; Aksu, Önder; Çakir Sahilli, Yeliz
Arsenic (As) is a heavy metal and aquatic pollutant and adversely impacts the reproduction of male fish. As a chain-breaking antioxidant, ascorbic acid (AA) has high water solubility and low toxicity. In this context, the current study was performed to assess the protective role of AA (1 mM) on the sperm cells of the rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) exposed to sublethal concentrations of As (8, 16 and 32 mg/L). Sperm quality parameters were analyzed using a sperm class analyzer system. Lipid peroxidation and antioxidant enzyme levels were used as indicators of oxidative stress. The fertilization, eyeing and hatching rates were determined as gamete markers. Reduced sperm quality parameters and fertility capacity resulted from in vitro exposure to As (P < 0.05). The oxidative stress in sperm cells increased after As exposure (P < 0.05). The presence of AA improved sperm movement parameters and fertility potential (P < 0.05). Overall, AA had a positive effect on oxidative stress and fertility ability against As toxicity and AA supplementation ameliorated detrimental effects of As in sperm cells.

Diamond-like carbon films have found various areas of application due to their particularly durable characteristics. To enhance the electrical and optoelectronic characteristics of the material, diamond-like carbon was co-deposited with Ge on p-type Si wafer using the DC magnetron sputtering technique, from which diamond-like carbon-germanium nanocomposites were obtained. The structural properties of the nanocomposites were assessed using electron microscopy techniques. The chemical structure of the nanocomposite films was confirmed using energy dispersive spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy. The electrical properties of the nanocomposite films were investigated via various electrical parameters as determined through current-voltage, capacitance–voltage, and conductance–voltage graphs. Photoresponsive and photosensitivity properties were also assessed using a solar simulator at various illumination intensities. It was concluded that nanocomposite thin films were responsive to light, where photosensitivity and photoresponsivity increased with increasing illumination intensity. The electrical characteristics of the nanocomposite films were associated with the frequency of the AC voltage applied.

Cemalgil, Selim
Wasted tyres are commonly used in civil engineering applications for a variety of purposes, including as concrete ingredients. Wasted tires that are mechanically sheared into shreds ranging in size from 25 to 300 mm and intended for use in concrete are called " Waste Shreded Tyre Aggregate" to make a contribution to sustainable waste management. Currently, at this point, the basic philosophy of this study is to investigate the effects of Waste Tire Aggregate (WTA) on the mechanical and durability properties of Self Compacting Concrete (SCC) to provide a contribution to reusing waste tires in the construction industry. WTAs with 5, 10, and 15% volume ratios are substituted for fine aggregate in SCC production. In addition, 15% mixtures with a binder quantity of 550 kg/m3, including 20 and 30% fly ash (FA) were substituted and prepared to be compared with the control concrete. To measure the rheological properties of SCCs, slump flow, V-funnel and L-box tests were performed. Then, the produced concrete samples of different sizes were cured under laboratory conditions for 28 days and then subjected to hardened concrete tests on the 28th, 56th and 90th days. The hardened concrete tests were composed of axial compressive strength, flexural strength, splitting tensile, diagonal tensile, abrasion resistance, modulus of elasticity. Finally, a durability test was performed as chlorine penetration depth. The test results show that WTA positively affects the properties of fresh and hardened SCC. Only, the increase in the substitution rate of WTA in concrete mixtures decreased the hardened state strength of the SCC. However, the addition of WTA to up to 15% of the total fine aggregate volume indicates that it is possible to apply recycled WTA to SCC and successfully satisfy both fresh and hardened SCC specifications.

Prakash, J.; Tripathi, Dharmendra; Akkurt, Nevzat; Bég, O. Anwar
Motivated by bio-inspired nano-technological functional coating flows, in the current paper a theoretical study of laminar, steady, incompressible bioconvection flow of a tangential hyperbolic (non-Newtonian) nanofluid from a bi-directional stretching surface under mutually orthogonal electrical and magnetic fields is presented. Nonlinear thermal radiation, Joule heating and heat source/sink effects are included. Non-Fourier and non-Fickian models are also implemented which feature thermal and solutal relaxation. Buongiorno’s nanoscale model is adopted which features thermophoresis and Brownian motion effects. Rosseland’s model is employed for thermal radiation. The electro-viscous effects arising from the distortions of the double-capacitance electric flow field are addressed with a modified formulation of the Poisson–Boltzmann equation. Via appropriate similarity transformations, the coupled, nonlinear partial differential conservation boundary layer equations and wall and freestream boundary conditions are rendered into a nonlinear ordinary differential boundary value problem which is solved numerically with an efficient numerical Lobatto—IIIa collocation method available in the MATLAB bvp4c shooting solver. Validation with previous studies is included. Velocity is strongly damped with increasing buoyancy ratio and bioconvection Rayleigh number is generally greater with positive rather than negative electrical field parameter. Increasing the Eckert number reduces the density of motile microorganisms while raising the temperature. An increment in Brownian motion and radiative parameters strongly accentuates temperatures.

In this work, considering anisotropic and homogeneous Bianchi type-V universe we investigated Kaniadakis holographic dark energy (KHDE). It is demonstrated that the equation of state (EoS) parameter has a transition from the quintessence era to the phantom era for the chosen model. Additionally, in the late time of the universe, EoS parameter behaves like a cosmological constant (Λ) with an IR (Infrared) cut-off apparent horizon in case of a particular form of deceleration parameter. We reconstructed correspondence between the KHDE and tachyon, quintessence and k-essence scalar fields. Also, our numerical solutions have been shown in graphs for EoS parameter and scalar fields.

The potential human health risks of some toxic/harmful elements related to the consumption of Pseudevernia furfuracea (L.) Zopf. were investigated. The toxic/harmful elements (cadmium (Cd), chromium (Cr), copper (Cu), lead (Pb), manganese (Mn), nickel (Ni), and zinc (Zn)) were determined in P. furfuracea. According to the analysis result, the maximum (max.) toxic/harmful element value was 62 ± 3.1 mg/kg for Mn and minimum (min.) value was 0.19 ± 0.01 mg/kg for Cd. The estimated daily exposure doses (EDEXDs) for men, women and children were dietary (bread) > dietary (tea) > dermal. For dietary (bread) and dietary (tea) non-carcinogenic (HQ) risk was children > women > men. For dermal, HQ risk was women > children > men. Hazard index (HI) value for men was >1 for Cr. HI value for men was 1.36 for Cr. HI value for women was >1 for Cr and Mn. HI values for women were 1.54 for Cr and 1.01 for Mn. Also, the HI value for children was >1 for Cr, Mn, and Pb. HI values for children were 3.44 for Cr, 2.24 for Mn, and 1.66 for Pb. This situation showed that there was a non-carcinogenic risk. Carcinogenic risk values were dietary (bread) > dietary (tea) > dermal. The total max. carcinogenic value was 1.97E-03 for Cr while the total min. carcinogenic value was 1.31E-05 for Pb. As a result, it has been determined that there may be a risk of cancer due to the consumption of lichen as bread and this situation may adversely affect human health.

Susam, Selim Orhun
In this paper, we are proposing a flexible method for constructing a bivariate generalized Farlie-Gumbel-Morgenstern (G-FGM) copula family. The method is mainly developed around the function ϕ(t) (t ∈ [0, 1]), where ϕ is the generator of the G-FGM copula. The proposed construction method has useful advantages. The first of which is the direct relationship between the ϕ function and Kendall’s tau. The second advantage is the possibility of constructing a multi-parameter G-FGM copula which allows us to better harmonize empirical instruction with the model. The construction method is illustrated by three real data examples.

Yucesan, Melih; Başhan, Veysi; Demirel, Hakan; Gul, Muhammet
The environmental destruction in our century necessitates the implementation of more safety-based rules and the strict implementation of failure analysis, especially in the maritime sector. The generator system, considered the ship's powerhouse, is expected to be ready and well-maintained for efficient and safe operations. This study proposes a new methodology to analyze ship generator failures. This method includes a version of the best-worst multi-criteria decision-making method enriched with interval type-2 fuzzy logic (IT2FE-BWM). Enrichment with interval type-2 fuzzy numbers shows that a parameter about how much the decision-maker trusts the pairwise comparisons are added to the model. Thus, a more sensitive methodology has been proposed for the confidence of the maritime sector evaluators. A solid decision mechanism has been developed to prioritize generator failures. In addition, a comparison study with some other BWM derivatives and a creative sensitivity analysis were added to this study and its robustness was tested.

In the field of emission reduction, considering the limitations of single clean combustion technology and joint control of carbon emission, the application of Technology of Mixed-Gas (TMG), Technology of Low-calorific Value Gas (TLVG) and Technology of Low Oxygen Combustion (TLOC) in the Novel-type Coke Oven Flue with MILD Combustion (MILD-NCOF) was realized. By adjusting the ratio of coke oven gas to blast furnace gas (α), the ratio of flue gas to gas (β) and the ratio of flue gas to air (γ), the heat and mass transfer mechanism of combustion process in MILD-NCOF was researched, the dual emission control system and the regulation strategy of pollutant and carbon emissions were established. The results showed that with the increase of α, β and γ, the fluidity of gas and the reaction rate of combustible components in the fire path were improved, the heat and mass transfer was enhanced, and the effect of dual emission reduction of pollutants and carbon emissions was improved. When the mixing ratio α was 0.6, Tave was reached at 1594.93 K. The NOx concentration at the outlet was 116.34 mg/m3, and the sum of the molar concentrations of CO and CO2 at the outlet was reduced to 1.440 × 10−1. When the mixing ratio β was 2.4, Tave was reached at 1518.73 K, the NOx concentration at the outlet was 128.42 mg/m3, and the sum of the molar concentrations of CO and CO2 at the outlet was 1.127 × 10−1. When the mixing ratio γ was 0.6, Tave was reached at 1627.28 K, the NOx concentration at the outlet was 142.73 mg/m3, and the sum of the molar concentrations of CO and CO2 was reduced to 1.128 × 10−1, which could meet the dual standards of clean production and low-carbon environmental protection of MILD-NCOF.

Potato starch (PS) films reinforced with microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) were prepared with casting solution, and the effect of montmorillonite (MMT) clay in different proportions (1, 3, 5 and 10 wt%) using nanofiller was established. The films were investigated by Fourier transform ınfrared (FTIR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), tensile strength, opacity, colour, water vapour permeability and solubility. Tensile strength for nanocomposite films depending on the clay content was increased significantly from 0.64 to 1.89 MPa. The water vapour permeability of nanocomposite films was improved compared to the PSMCC blend without MMT. Also, dielectric properties and electrical conductivity of films were studied. The dielectric permittivity (έ), the dielectric loss (ε˝) and the electrical conductivity (σ) increased with increasing MMT content at frequencies between 100 Hz to 10 kHz. This nanocomposite with improved functional properties could be used in potential food packaging materials and electrical applications.
