Erust, Ceren
Several waste dusts collecting equipment options are available for air pollution control in plants, the most commonly used being the electrofilter. Industrial wastes such as electrofilter dust are evaluated as a secondary resource owing to their critical metal contents. In this work, the results of studies on the extraction of cobalt and copper from electrofilter dust generated in sulphuric acid production plants are presented. The chemical and mineralogical compositions of the dust were investigated using instrumental analytical methods. The electrofilter dust consists of the main phases of haematite, quartz, and anhydrite. Also, electrofilter dust contains 1.43% copper and 0.28% cobalt. It was found that the process of copper and cobalt dissolution is characterized by chemical kinetics. When the acid leaching was applied in 1 M sulphuric acid in the presence of 0.05 M hydrogen peroxide, with the temperature 80°C and 2 h of leaching time, stirring rate of 200 rpm and liquid to solid ratio 20/1 v/w, cobalt and copper extraction achieved 88% and 98% respectively. As a result of studying the kinetics of acid leaching with sulphuric acid in the presence of oxidant hydrogen peroxide, activation energy and the type of reaction to chemical controlled model were determined.

Aydin, Ali; Korkmaz, Şengül Aslan
The present study was conducted in order to investigate the pharmacological activities of three heterobimetallic coordination compounds: [Cd(N-bishydeten)2 ][Ni(CN)4 ] (C1), [Cu2 (N-bishydeten)2 Co(CN)6 ].3H2 O (C2), and K[Cd(N-bishydeten)Co(CN)6 ].1.5H2 O (C3) (N-bishydeten = N,N-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)-ethylenediamine). This paper describes the ability of complexes to inhibit cell growth, cell migration and human topoisomerase I and to interact with DNA/BSA; this paper also evaluates the potential mechanisms of action exhibited by these compounds via the use of powerful measurement techniques. Studies on HT29, HeLa, C6 and Vero cells revealed that each compound demonstrated significant antiproliferative activity in conjunction with regressed cell migration velocity and caused apoptotic changes in morphology. There are strong data suggesting that the mechanisms of action exhibited by these compounds are associated with their DNA/BSA binding features. The IC50 and binding constant range for the compounds are 20-180 µM and 1.2-3.2 x 104 M-1, respectively. Moreover, we observed that these compounds alter the P53-Bcl-2 ratio and inhibit the relaxation activity of human topoisomerase I. Furthermore, a correlation between the antiproliferative effects of these compounds and their cytotoxic activity was observed. In conclusion, preliminary information demonstrates that these compounds have been found to exhibit effective antiproliferative activity against cancer cell lines, indicating that they are a potent candidate for further pharmacological study.

İncele - MakaleYalnız künye2017Scopus SJRQ2Effect of Cobalt on Sperm Motility in an Endangered Trout Species, Salmo coruhensis
Kocabaş, Mehmet; Kutluyer, Filiz
Experiments were designed to examine the in vitro effect of cobalt on sperm motility of the endangered trout species (Salmo coruhensis). Sperm samples were diluted in an immobilizing solution, and activated in a motility-activation solution that was supplemented with cobalt at concentrations of 1, 10, 100 and 1000 mg/L. The percentage of motile sperm and duration of motility were determined. Cobalt concentrations of 1–100 mg/L had a positive effect on the percentage of motile sperm and duration of motility compared to the control group, while a concentration of 1000 mg/L resulted in decreases in these parameters (p < 0.05). The percentages of motile sperm at cobalt concentrations of 0, 1, 10, 100 and 1000 mg/L were 83.33% ± 0.25%, 88.33% ± 0.34%, 89.00% ± 0.57%, 90.00% ± 0.87% and 42.50% ± 0.45%, respectively; and the time durations over which the sperm remained motile were 72.00 ± 0.63, 74.83 ± 0.28, 77.40 ± 0.47, 81.14 ± 0.78, and 50.25 ± 0.67 s, respectively. This study has shown that sperm motility and duration were significantly enhanced (p < 0.05) at cobalt concentrations of 1, 10 and 100 mg/L, relative to controls, and significantly decreased at 1000 mg/L.
