Turk, Kazim; Karatas, Mehmet; Gonen, Tahir
In this paper, ASTM C 618 Class F Fly Ash (FA) at 25%, 30%, 35% and 40% and Silica Fume (SF) at 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% replacement of Portland Cement (PC) CEM I 42.5 in SCC was used to evaluate the effect of types and quantity of powder additions on compressive strength and permeations properties of SCC. To this end, eight types of SCC were designed, in comparison with Vibrated Traditional Concrete (VTC). The results indicated that SCC specimens with SF15 had the highest compressive strength with 73.87 MPa for 130 days. The sorptivity values of SCC specimens with FA and SF were lower than those of VTC specimens regardless of type and quantity of powder additions. On the other hand, the carbonation resistance of VTC was higher than that of SCC specimens containing both SF and FA for all accelerated carbonation periods. Consequently, it can be said that type and quantity of powder additions had an important effect on the correlation among the compressive strength and permeation properties of SCC.

Ates, Mehmet; Demir, Veysel; Adiguzel, Ragip; Arslan, Zikri
The increased use of nanosized materials is likely to result in the release of these particles into the environment. It is, however, unclear if these materials are harmful to aquatic animals. In this study, the sublethal effects of exposure of low and high concentrations of titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs) on goldfish (Carassius auratus) were investigated. Accumulation of TiO2 NPs increased from 42.71 to 110.68 ppb in the intestine and from 4.10 to 9.86 ppb in the gills of the goldfish with increasing exposure dose from 10 to 100mg/L TiO2 NPs. No significant accumulation in the muscle and brain of the fish was detected. Malondialdehyde as a biomarker of lipid oxidation was detected in the liver of the goldfish. Moreover, TiO2 NPs exposure inhibited growth of the goldfish. Although there was an increase (8.1%) in the body weights of the goldfish for the control group, in the low and high exposure groups 1.8% increase and 19.7% decrease were measured, respectively. The results of this study contribute to the current understanding of the potential ecotoxicological effects of nanoparticles and highlight the importance of characterization of NPs in understanding their behavior, uptake, and effects in aquatic systems and in fish.

Kizak, V.; Ozden, O.; Guner, Yusuf
In this study, rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) (162.7 +/- 3.03 g) and brown trout (Salmo trutta forma fario) (160.9 +/- 2.94 g) were transferred to full-strength seawater (36.5 gl(-1)) for directly and gradually (21 days), then changes in gill Na+-K+-ATPase activity and size of chloride cells associated with environmental salinity were investigated and also survival of trouts were evaluated in seawater. All fish died when brown trouts were transferred into seawater directly but rainbow trouts survived 50 - 58.3 %. However, significant difference was recorded between brown and rainbow trouts in terms of survival rates by gradual acclimation. Survival of brown trout and rainbow trout that were transferred in seawater gradually, was 66.7 - 75 % and 83.3 - 91.7 %, respectively (p < 0.05). Gill chloride cell sizes in both species increased at 36.5 gl(-1) salinity. The lowest sectional area of chloride cells was determined at the point of death in brown trouts which were transferred directly. Following direct transfer to seawater, the largest sectional area of chloride cells were determined in rainbow trout. There are significant differences between acclimated and non-acclimated fish in terms of chloride cell sizes and Na+-K+-ATPase activities (p < 0.05). The highest gill Na+-K+-ATPase activity was in brown trouts which were transferred gradually, while the lowest activity was detected in freshwater phase. According to the results, gradually acclimated trouts can perform better adaptation than their directly acclimated counterparts.

Demir, V.; Bin-Shafique, S.
Batch studies indicated that low cost native materials such as loam soil, juniper mulch, hardwood mulch, pine mulch and sawdust performed efficiently as media in bioretention cell for removal of copper and lead from stormwater runoff. Juniper mulch performed best in batch studies was used in column studies. Column studies suggested that the presence of phosphate has a pronounced effect on metal immobilization. This is due to the formation of metal phosphates that have extremely low solubility. The remaining metals were adsorbed on bioretention media of the bioretention cell. Breakthrough adsorption and desorption curves for lead and copper were measured in presence and absence of phosphate immobilization. Copper reached a breakthrough curve in around 20 days and lead in 30 days. Column studies showed that in all samples addition of phosphate also decreased the leaching of lead and copper back to aqueous solution consistent with lead and copper immobilization.

Kizak, Volkan; Güner, Yusuf; Türel, Murat; Kayim, Murathan
The aim of this study was to compare growth, gonadal structure and red blood cell sizes of triploid and diploid brown trout (Salmo trutta fario). Triploidy was induced by providing a heat shock treatment to the fertilized eggs. From the 18th month post-fertilization triploid (TBT) and control diploid (CBT) brown trout groups were investigated up to 32nd month. Survival, specific growth rate, feed conversion ratio, condition factor, relative growth rate, absolute growth rate, gonadosomatic index, hepatosomatic index and carcass yield were determined in both groups. It has been determined that the triploid fish showed greater live weight than diploid fish despite the difference was not significant (P>0.05). In triploid group triploidisation success was obtained as 95% and male/female ratio was found as 44.4-55.6%. The red blood cells were significantly larger in triploids than diploid ones (P<0.05). Regarding histological section of gonads, triploidy resulted in reduced gonadal development in female, while triploid males seem to exhibit normal gonadal development. Our results suggest that since triploid females could grow more than males, the growth performance studies on triploid brown trout should be performed with all-female stocks under fish farming practices especially for the production of large size trout.

Levels of nickel and chromium in leaves of 14 plant species grown in industrial sites of Gaziantep and surrounding were examined for biomonitoring of atmospheric pollution using flame atomic absorption spectrophotometry (FAAS). The plant leaf samples were collected from different locations with different degrees of metal pollution. The metal levels in the plants were in the ranges of (with mean values) 0.4-28.0 (3.1) mg kg(-1) for Ni and 0.1-6.6 (1.5) mg kg(-1) for Cr. On the other hand, the Ni and Cr levels in the plant leaf samples collected from control) areas were in the ranges of 0.4-2.1 (1.1) and 0.1-1.4 (0.58) mg kg(-1), respectively. It was concluded that Pinus nigra L., Acacia robinia L., Platanus orientalis L., Nerium oleander L., Pyracantha coccinea M.Roem. and Populus nigra L. for Ni, Pinus nigra L., Acacia robinia L., Olea europaea L. and Nerium oleander L. for Cr could be biomonitors. Therefore, it was demonstrated that the plant leaves could be used for heavy metal air pollution monitoring in urban and industrial regions.

Five-step sequential extractions were employed to fractionation of Ni, Cr and Cu in soil polluted by anthropogenic activities and determine the mobility of the metals. Twelve samples were collected on an agricultural area that was located near an airport and intercity roads in Elazig-Turkey. Exchangeable, organically bounded, carbonate bounded, adsorbed species on Fe and Mn oxides and residual species (except silicates) of Ni, Cr and Cu were extracted into solution by using CaCl2, Na4P2O7, Na(2)EDTA, NH2OH-HCl and HNO3-H2O2, respectively. Mobile metal concentrations in fractions and total recoverable in soils were determined by using inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES). Total recoverable Ni, Cr and Cu concentrations were in the range of 40-119, 45-126 and 23-72mgkg(-1), respectively. It was observed that total concentrations of metals in some of the samples were higher than the permitted values. The sum of the mobile percentages of metals was found to be lower than 50%. The Ni, Cr and Cu percentages for exchangeable species are in the ranges of 0.18-1.64, 0.03-0.59 and 0.42-2.53%, respectively.

Five cyanide complexes, [Ni(N-bishydeten)Pd(CN)(4)] (1), [Cu(N-bishydeten)Pd(-CN)(2)(CN)(2)](n) (2), [Cu(N-bishydeten)(2)][Pd(CN)(4)] (3), [Zn(N-bishydeten)Pd(CN)(4)] (4), and [Cd(N-bishydeten)(2)][Pd(CN)(4)] (5) (N-bishydeten = N,N-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)-ethylenediamine), have been synthesized and characterized using various techniques. Different structures were formed when the M:L ratio was varied in copper complexes. The single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that 2, a 1-D cyanide-bridged complex with 2,2-CT-type zigzag chain, was obtained by using 1:1M:L ratio whereas 3 was formed as a complex salt in a molar ratio of 1:2. The thermal stabilities determined from DTG(max) values of the first decomposition stages change in the order 1>5>4>3>2. Although an EPR signal was not observed for 1, the g parameters obtained from the EPR spectra of 2 and 3 indicate that Cu-II ions are located in tetragonally distorted octahedral sites (D-4h), and the ground state of the unpaired electron is (B-2(1g)). The magnetic behavior indicates a very small antiferromagnetic interaction below 10K for 1-3. In 3, there is a temperature-independent paramagnetism () due to the orbital moments of the d electrons. 1-3 were tested as catalysts in Suzuki and Heck coupling reactions.

Seasonal variations of proximate composition and fatty acid profiles of wild brown trout (Salmo trutta macrostigma Dumeril, 1858) caught from the Munzur River, Tunceli-Turkey were investigated in this study. It was determined that wild brown trout was high in mono-unsaturated, poly-unsaturated and saturated fatty acids, respectively. C18:1 omega-9 (oleic acid) was the most abundant fatty acid in all seasons ranging from 20.27 to 29.35 %. C22:6 omega-3 (docosahexaenoic acid-DHA), C18:3 omega-3c (cis-linolenic acid), C18:2 omega-6c (linoleic acid), and C20:5 omega-3 (eicosapentaenoic acid-EPA) were found to be predominant fatty acids in PUFAs. As a conclusion, wild brown trout living in Munzur river could be considered as an important protein and omega-3 fatty acid source according to the nutritional quality results evaluated in terms of proximate and fatty acid composition.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of Cu addition on the microstructure and mechanical properties of PM Fe-Cu-Al2O3 alloys produced using hot-pressing method. Copper powder was added to iron powder at 5 wt.%, 10 wt.% and 15 wt.% rates. Production of Fe-Cu-Al2O3 alloys was carried out under pressure of 35 MPa, at 750, 800 and 850 degrees C, and for a sintering time of 4 minutes. Microstructure phase composition, relative density, hardness, and transverse rupture strength of the alloys were investigated. Phase composition and microstructure of the alloys were characterised by optical microscopy, X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscope (SEM-EDS) techniques. The transverse rupture strength (TRS) of the samples was assessed by means of a three-point bending test. Hardness of Fe-Cu-Al2O3 alloys changed between 57 HB and 110 FIB depending on the amount of Cu and sintering temperature. Results show that the TRS of the alloys decreased together with the increase in the amount of copper, while it increased with increasing sintering temperature.

Grape is one of the world's largest fruit crops, with an approximate annual production of 58 million metric tons, and it is well known that the grape skins, seeds and stems, waste products generated during wine and grape juice processing, are rich sources of polyphenols. It contains flavonoids, phenolic acids and stilbenes. In this study, we tried to determine antioxidant properties and phenolic contents of grape and grape products (fresh fruit, seed, dried fruit, molasses, pestil, vinegar) of ethanol and water extracts. Antioxidant properties of extracts were investigated by DPPH center dot, ABTS(center dot+), superoxide, H2O2 scavenging, reducing power, metal chelating activity and determination of total phenolic contents. The seed extracts revealed highest ABTS(center dot+), DPPH center dot, H2O2 scavenging and reducing power activities. Furthermore, these extracts showed higher total phenolic contents than other grape product extracts.

In the present study, tensile bond strength between on acrylic resin and a soft liner, molloplast B, was studied. To enhance the bonding capacity between these materials, acrylic resin surface was modified using ethyl methacrylate, iso-butyl methacrylate or tert-butyl methacrylate monomers. The monomers were applied onto the surfaces of methacrylate components for 60, 120 or 180 s and the bond strength values were obtained. The values were statistically compared. Changes on the modified surfaces were investigated by fourier transform infared spectroscopy with attenuated total reflectance (FTIR-ATR). The highest bond strength value was obtained from 120 s treatments with ethyl methacrylate and the lowest value was obtained from 60 s treatments with iso-butyl methacrylate. These high alkyl monomers also had secondary interactions on the acrylic surfaces, evidenced by FTIR-ATR.

The study area is located in the south of Daghacilar village of Goynuk town in Bolu Province, Turkey. This study is a pioneering work in Turkey on the genesis and environmental characteristics of oil shales and other shallow marine-type sedimentary rocks regarding their major and rare earth element contents. The abundances of SiO2, Al2O3, TiO2, K2O and Fe2O3 decrease in the following order: claystone > oil shale > marl. CaO and MgO abundances are ranked in the decreasing order as follows: marl > oil shale > claystone. These results reveal the presence of two different genetic groups - detrital and marine. The same groups were also established in the correlation studies of elements. TOT/C and TOC contents of rocks observe the following order: oil shale > marl > claystone, and as a result of variations in redox conditions they also vary in a wide range. Total carbon and total organic carbon are positively correlated with the group representing clays and negatively correlated with CaO, MgO and MnO. That is why TOT/C and TOC are associated with clays. The positive correlations between some major oxides (e.g. SiO2, Al2O3, Fe2O3, TiO2 and K2O) and REE might indicate that clays and iron oxy-hydroxyls play an important role in transportation and deposition processes. The only slight negative Ce and positive Eu anomalies and Ce/Ce* and Eu/Eu* values recorded in the depositional environment indicate low oxygenated and anaerobic (reducing) conditions.

Eristi, Huseyin; Yildirim, Ozal; Eristi, Belkis; Demir, Yakup
In this paper, a new optimal feature selection based power quality event recognition system is proposed for the classification of power quality events. While Apriori algorithm is capable of processing categorical data, an effective feature vector, which represents distinctive features of digital power quality event data, has been obtained by means of the proposed k-means based Apriori algorithm feature selection approach. The proposed k-means based Apriori algorithm feature selection approach is presented with a power quality event recognition system. In the power quality event recognition system, normalization and segmentation processes have been applied to three-phase event voltage signals. Using 9-level multiresolution analysis, wavelet transform coefficients of the event signals have been obtained. By applying nine different feature extraction processes to these coefficients, a 90 dimensional feature vector belonging to three-phase event voltage signals has been extracted. Optimal feature vector has been obtained by applying the k-means based Apriori algorithm feature selection approach to the obtained feature vector, which has been applied as the last step to the input of the least squares support vector machine classifier and recognition performance results have been obtained. Real power quality event data have been used to evaluate the performance of the proposed feature selection approach and power quality event recognition system. According to the results, the proposed k-means based Apriori algorithm feature selection approach and power quality event recognition system are efficient, reliable and applicable and classify three-phase event types with a high degree of accuracy.

This study is aimed to determine the bioaccumulation of copper and zinc in hemolymph of freshwater crayfish (Astacus leptodactylus) fed with zebra mussel (Dreissena polymorpha) collected from Keban Dam Lake. This is the first study on bioaccumulation of Cu and Zn in hemolymph of males and females of A. leptodactylus. The average concentrations of Cu and Zn in the hemolymph samples were found out as 0.54 and 35.07 ppm respectively for male and 0.42 and 15.59 ppm respectively for female control freshwater crayfish. The levels of Zn in the hemolymph of both male and female ones among control and diet groups were statistically significant (P < 0.05). The Cu levels among control and diet groups in female ones were statistically significant (P < 0.05) but not in the male ones (P > 0.05). The results of current study revealed that feed treatment with boiling was not effective at the levels of metal bioaccumulation in hemolymph. It was observed that this metal bioaccumulation is more related with sex differences.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between fatigue and social support in hemodialysis patients in Turkey. This study was conducted on 73 patients receiving hemodialysis treatment in a hemodialysis unit in the province of Malatya between July and November 2011. A questionnaire consisting of 16 questions for sociodemographic and disease data was used together with the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS) and the Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS). In statistical evaluation, the Mann-Whitney U-test, independent t-test, Kruskal-Wallis test, and Pearson's correlation analysis were used. Correlation analysis between severity of fatigue in hemodialysis patients and social support revealed a significant relationship in the negative direction between fatigue severity and support from family (r=-0.404, P<0.05), support from friends (r=-0.635, P<0.05), support from a special person (r=-0.638, P<0.05) and overall support (r=-0.643, P<0.05). Patients with severe fatigue had low mean scores for support from family, friends, a special person and overall, whereas a high level of social support decreased the level of fatigue. When giving care to patients on hemodialysis, nurses should consider the effect of social support on fatigue and approach their patients from this perspective.

In this study, it was aimed to investigate the antioxidant and antihepatotoxic effect of hydoxyurea derivative 1,3,4-thiadiazoles on serum biochemical parameters (AST, ALT, LDH, urea, creatinine and total bilirubin) and antioxidant parameters (SOD, CAT, GPX, MDA). In our study, a total of 35 adult male wistar rats were divided into 5 equal groups. DMSO diluted with only corn oil, was injected to the control group. 25 mg/kg ligand, 25 mg/kg thiadiazole-manganese, 25 mg/kg thiadiazole-cadmium and 25 mg/kg thiadiazole-chrome complexes was injected to the experimental groups rats subcutaneously for 15 days with three-day interval during the test. After blood samples were centrifuged AST, ALT, LDH enzyme activites hepatic injury; and then, the activites of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPX), and the level of malondialdehyde (MDA) in liver tissues were determined spectrophotometrically. The level of AST was found to be lower (p<0.05) in the Cr-L group than in other groups. The levels of ALT and total bilirubine were found to be lower (p<0.05) in the Cd-L group than in other groups. The level of SOD was found to be higher (p<0.05) in the Cd-L group than in other groups. The levels of GPX was found to be lower (p<0.05) in the Cr-L group than in other groups. As a result, it can be concluded that their pharmacological characteristics can be beneficial in many fields of application because hydroxyurea derivative 1,3,4 thiadiazole compounds show the antioxidant and antihepatotoxic activity.
