Baskonus, Haci Mehmet; Bulut, Hasan
This manuscript focuses on the new wave behaviors of the system of equations for the ion sound wave under the action of the ponderomotive force which results from a nonlinear force that a charged particle experiences in an inhomogeneous oscillating electromagnetic field due to high-frequency field. The sine-Gordon expansion method which is one of the powerful methods has been considered for finding traveling wave solutions of the system of equations for the ion sound wave under the pressure of the Langmuir wave. This algorithm yields new complex hyperbolic function solutions to the system considered in this paper. Wolfram Mathematica 9 has been successfully used throughout the paper for mathematical calculations.

Karatay, G.; Bowers, B.; Karadag, E. B.; Demir, M. C.
Aim: This study explored Turkish nursing students' perceptions of providing care to patients culturally different from themselves. Background: Increasing migration will increase the need for nurses to provide care across cultural groups. Methods: Twenty one students in the second year of a 4-year nursing programme participated in 3 focus groups. Data were analysed using directed content analysis. Research questions were based on Campinha-Bacote's model. Results: Three themes were identified: perceived cultural barriers, perceived cultural facilitators and identifying culturally sensitive actions. Generally, students were able to define culture but were unable to say how culture would affect nursing practice. Discussion: Students were unprepared to practice in a multicultural setting. Cultural awareness is insufficient for determining how to respond to cultural differences. Limitations: The study is limited by its restriction to a single school of nursing and a single curriculum. Conclusions: The multiple, ongoing political, religious and ethnic conflicts will require nurses to provide care to patients from other cultural groups, in some instances to people identified as adversaries to the group the nurse may represent. Understanding cultural differences is insufficient to do this effectively. Implications for nursing education: Learning culturally competent care requires opportunities to provide, be guided through and reflect on care to individuals from different cultural groups. Implications for organizational and public policies: Standards for culturally competent care should be adopted by all care delivery settings. Public and organizational policies openly declaring healthcare settings as cultural safe zones, and explicit organizational commitment to culturally safe care, would set clear expectations for providers and help ensure a positive patient experience.

Erguven, Gokhan Onder; Bayhan, Hurrem
The study is about the removal of herbicide Trifluralin as COD parameter and monitoring the population dynamic of isolated cultures. These cultures were isolated from soil samples taken from these areas for their identifications before the use of herbicide. Removal of Trifluralin was determined by microbiological degradation with these produced bacteria and fungi in liquid media. With these growing bacteria and fungi, removal rate by bioremediation method studies were carried out. In addition to biodegradation mechanism, with the measurements of the turbidity; the colony number of microorganisms is monitored with isolated bacteria and fungi species. The removal efficiency for Bacillus simplex was 95% and Clostridium tetani species was 86%, by the fungi Penicillium simplicissimum, and Metacordcyceps chlamydosporia species, were 59% and 80% respectively in five days. Bioremediation study results have shown differences with respect to species in liquid media. Degradation time of these herbicides in liquid culture media with isolated cultures varied between 5 min. and 135 min.

Immunological biomarkers reflect the effects of exposure to environmental contaminants. In this study, the suitability and sensitivity of cytokine responses, interleukin 1 beta (IL-1 beta), interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) in gill tissues of Capoeta umbla (Heckel, 1843), collected from different regions, as early warning indices of environmental pollution and ecosystem health was evaluated. Fish and water samples were taken from ten stations in March and September 2011 and 2012. Tumor necrosis factor-alpha, IL-1 beta and IL-6 levels were determined in samples of the gill tissues by using an ELISA kit. Significant variations of TNF-alpha, IL-1 beta and IL-6 levels observed between stations and seasons. The results of this study show that seasonal variations of cytokine responses in gills of Capoeta umbla are sensitive to the contaminants present in Uzuncayir Dam Lake (Tunceli, Turkey) water and are valuable biomarkers for environmental pollution and ecosystem health.

Polat, Mehmet; Oksuztepe, Eyyup; Kurum, Hasan
Switched reluctance motors (SRMs) require sensitive rotor information in order to work sensitively and properly and especially for the commutation of phase currents. Position information is generally acquired from a sensor which is generally placed into the stator or connected to the rotor. However, sensors have disadvantages in terms of cost, safety, complexity and volume. In order to remove these disadvantages, recent studies concentrate on SRMs working without a position sensor. In this study control methods working without a position sensor are examined, the applied method is presented comprehensively. The education and test data of the artificial neural network is not obtained from simulation or experimental results; it is obtained from magnetic analyses carried out in ANSYS 10 and the results are used in position speed and current sensorless control of SRM. The validity of proposed method is demonstrated by using DS 1103.

Erguven, G. O.; Bayhan, H.; Ikizoglu, B.; Kanat, G.; Nuhoglu, Y.
Bioremediation is the use of microorganisms to degrade environmental contaminants (pesticides, polyaromatic hydrocarbons etc.) into less toxic forms or compounds. In this study microbial biodegradation of trifluralin was performed in liquid media with 11 different types of identified fungi and bacteria cultures and their mixtures in agiated culture media. The isolated fungi and bacteria mixtures showed the highest degradation, reaching 93% in the chemical oxygen demand (COD) parameter in four days and 82% as trifluralin active ingredient in five days. Bacteria and fungi mixtures achieved 69% and 66% degradations of trifluralin active ingredient respectively. In the fungi studies, the best removal was achieved by M. Chlamydosporia at 80%, in the bacteria studies, the best removal was achieved by Bacillus simplex about 95% in five days. These different removal rates were due to the microbial differencies.

Ates, Mehmet; Demir, Veysel; Arslan, Zikri; Kaya, Hasan; Yilmaz, Sevdan; Camas, Mustafa
Effects of chronic exposure to alpha and gamma iron oxide nanoparticles (alpha-Fe2O3 and gamma-Fe2O3 NPs) were investigated through exposure of tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) to 0.1, 0.5 and 1.0 mg/L (9.2 x 10(-4), 4.6 x 10(-3) and 9.2 x 10(-3) mM) aqueous suspensions for 60 days. Fish were then transferred to NP-free freshwater and allowed to eliminate ingested NPs for 30 days. The organs, including gills, liver, kidney, intestine, brain, spleen, and muscle tissue of the fish were analyzed to determine the accumulation, physiological distribution and elimination of the Fe2O3 NPs. Largest accumulation occurred in spleen followed by intestine, kidney, liver, gills, brain and muscle tissue. Fish exposed to gamma-Fe2O3 NPs possessed significantly higher Fe in all organs. Accumulation in spleen was fast and independent of NP concentration reaching to maximum levels by the end of the first sampling period (30th day). Dissolved Fe levels in water were very negligible ranging at 4-6 mu g/L for alpha-Fe2O3 and 17-21 mu g/L for gamma-Fe2O3 NPs (for 1 mg/L suspensions). Despite that, Fe levels in gills and brain reflect more dissolved Fe accumulation from metastable gamma-Fe2O3 polymorph. Ingested NPs cleared from the organs completely within 30-day elimination period, except the liver and spleen. Liver contained about 31% of alpha- and 46% of gamma-Fe2O3, while spleen retained about 62% of alpha- and 35% of the gamma-polymorph. No significant disturbances were observed in hematological parameters, including hemoglobin, hematocrit, red blood cell and white blood cell counts (p > 0.05). Serum glucose (GLU) levels decreased in treatments exposed to 1.0 mg/L of gamma-Fe2O3 NPs at day 30 (p < 0.05). In contrast, GLU levels increased during the elimination period for 1.0 mg/L alpha-Fe2O3 NPs treatments (p < 0.05). Transient increases occurred in glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (GOT), glutamic pyruvic transaminase (GPT), and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). Serum Fe levels did not change during exposure (p > 0.05), but increased significantly within elimination period due to mobilization of ingested NPs from liver and spleen to blood. Though respiratory burst activity was not affected (p > 0.05), lysozyme activity (LA) was suppressed suggesting an immunosuppressive effects from both Fe2O3 NPs (p < 0.05). In contrast, myeloperoxidase (MPO) levels increased significantly in treatments exposed to alpha-Fe2O3 NPs (p < 0.05), and the effect from gamma-polymorph was marginal (p > 0.05). The results indicate that morphological differences of Fe2O3 NPs could induce differential uptake, assimilation and immunotoxic effects on O. niloticus under chronic exposure. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V.

In this study, the CuAl-TiC composite materials were produced using hot pressing process. Effect of TiC grain size (0.2, 4 and 20 mu m) on some properties of these materials was investigated experimentally. Production of CuAl-TiC composites was carried out under pressure of 35 MPa, at 700A degrees C, and for a sintering time of 5 minutes. SEM-MAP studies showed that the TiC grains were relatively homogeneously distributed in the CuAl matrix. Microstructure analysis revealed that the composite materials consist of Cu, Al, Cu9Al4, CuAl2 and TiC phases. With the decreasing of TiC grain size, the hardness, transverse rupture strength, relative density and sintered density of composites increased.

Sushi is a popular traditional Japanese food in worldwide. This study was conducted to investigate the physical, chemical, sensory and microbiological quality of sushi sold in supermarket and restaurants. 300 sushi samples were purchased from 5 different popular restaurants (A, B, D, E, and F) and 1 supermarket (C). Four main types of sushi (California roll (CR), sesame roll (SMR), sake roll (SR), take roll (TR)) were chosen from each station. pH values of sushi rice samples were found to be all below 4.6. According to sensory overall quality of sushi samples, CR and SMR from station C had significantly the lowest values (p<0.05). Among the sushi samples, pathogenic bacteria Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella spp. and Staphylococcus aureus were not detected in 25 g portion of any samples. Counts of total aerobic bacteria were high in stations A, B, D, E, and F (between 4.3-7 log CFU/g), except for station C (3.5 log CFU/g). Results for coliform counts showed similar trends as those of E. coli counts in samples. E. coli counts of all sushi types from all stations (except SMR, SR and TR from station D and SR from station E) exceeded the limit of acceptability (<100 MPN/g). Our finding may suggest a common presence of coliforms and E. coli in raw materials used in sushi preparation.

There is limited information on the scientific literature about the effect of in vitro exposure of fish sperm to pesticides. In vitro effect of cypermethrin on sperm quality and oxidative stress has not yet been fully investigated. Therefore, the effects of cypermethrin, a type II pyrethroid insecticide, on quality and oxidative stress of spermatozoa were examined in vitro. To explore the potential in vitro toxicity of cypermethrin, fish spermatozoa were incubated with different concentrations of cypermethrin (1.025, 2.05 and 4.1 mu g/l) for 2 h. The motility rate and duration of sperm were determined after exposure to cypermethrin. Reduced glutathione (GSH), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), catalase (CAT) and malondialdehyde (MDA) in spermatozoa were analyzed for determination of oxidant and antioxidant balance. Our results indicated that spermatozoa motility and duration significantly decreased with exposure to cypermethrin. Additionally, activity of GSH-Px (P < 0.05) and MDA and GSH levels increased in a concentration-dependent manner while CAT activity decreased (P < 0.05). Consequently, the oxidant and antioxidant status and sperm quality were affected by quantitative changes and different concentrations of cypermethrin. (C) 2015 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

Say, Yakup; Aksakal, Bunyamin; Dikici, Burak
REX-734 stainless steel alloy was coated with hydroxyapatite (HA)-silicon dioxide (SiO2) composite (hybride) coatings by using the sol-gel method. Surface morphologies, adhesion resistances and corrosion behaviors of the coatings were examined and the characterization of the coatings was performed by using XRD, SEM, and EDS. It was observed that porous and crack-free surface morphology enhanced adhesion strength of the coatings. Through the shear tests, it was found that the adhesion resistance was 25.14 MPa in HA coatings and 25.47 MPa in HA-SiO2 coatings. Corrosion analyses of the coatings were performed by using potentiodynamic polarization (PDS) tests. It was determined that corrosion dimples formed on the coating surface and the corrosion resistance in HA+SiO2 coatings increased with decreasing porosity; however, in the further steps of corrosion, it reached to the base material by causing a pitting effect on the coated surface.

Gul, Muhammet; Guneri, Ali Fuat
Earthquakes over the world cause serious damages for people and the economy. The establishment of an appropriate model to estimate potential losses or injuries in earthquake disasters is fundamental to decrease their impacts and losses and effectively respond and mitigate. Turkey as a country that experienced many earthquakes in the last century and had serious human and financial losses needs a comprehensive knowledge of consequences of devastating earthquakes to be able to plan for the future. Artificial neural networks (ANNs) have abilities to solve and analyse complex relations as an appropriate method to estimate number of injuries. In this study, an ANN model is built up for the earthquake casualty prediction, which takes earthquake occurrence time, earthquake magnitude, and population density as the predictors and employs 21 Mw > 5 earthquake disasters occurred in Turkey from 1975 as samples for the training of the network. The model was then tested on a study region consisting of four districts in Istanbul which is estimated to have the highest injury rate according to the earlier reports and generated estimations of the expected number of injured people. Results show that 99.9 % of the variability in the number of injured people is predictable with using this ANN model. Comparison of actual values and estimated output values in the ANN model was also found apparently very close to each other. According to the test case study results, when the value of earthquake magnitude is 6.5 Mw, number of injured people has increased in a sharp trend compared to the previous magnitude value (6 Mw) for all districts. Estimated number of injured people in daytime is obtained higher than at night when the earthquake magnitude is 5 and 5.5 Mw. The highest value in estimated number of injured people has emerged in Fatih district as 7241 for a 7.5 Mw daytime earthquake. On conclusion, it was deduced that the model can reveal accurate estimation of casualties and it can provide information in order to develop mitigation policies, especially in earthquake emergency service management.

Yigit, Emel; Akbulut, Gulcin Beker; Bayram, Dilek; Kaya, Armagan; Gok, Yetkin
The present study focuses on understanding the role of different antioxidants in plant defense against oxidative stress caused by fenoxaprop-p-ethyl herbicide. Besides ameliorative effect of exogenously applied salicylic acid (SA) and selenium (Se) on fenoxaprop-p-ethyl-induced toxicity was examined in Avena sativa L. It was determined that the MDA (malondialdehyde) content in the groups to which only herbicide was applied was higher than that of the groups to which SA and Se applied together with the herbicide. In plants exposed to fenoxaprop-p-ethyl, the activities of peroxidase (POD), ascorbate peroxidase (APX), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione S-transferase (GST), glutathione reductase (GR) and content of glutathione (GSH) increased in the treatment groups compared to the control groups. The antioxidant activity increased in the control and treatment groups that were pre-treated with SA and Se compared to the groups that were not pre-treated with SA and Se. While catalase activity (CAT) decreased in SA pre-treated plants, it increased in Se pre-treated plants. These results indicate that the fenoxaprop-p-ethyl induces various plant defense responses in target plants and that treatment with exogenous SA and Se can increase stress resistance by altering these responses.

Gul, Muhammet; Guneri, Ali Fuat
Decision matrix risk-assessment (DMRA) technique is a systematic approach widely used in the Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) risk assessment. In a typical matrix method approach, a measure of risk value is obtained by evaluating two risk factors as the likelihood of a hazard and the severity of the hazard when it arises. In this paper, a fuzzy approach enabling experts to use linguistic variables for evaluating two factors which are the parameters of matrix method is proposed to deal with shortcomings of a crisp risk score calculation and to decrease the inconsistency in decision making. The parameters likelihood and severity related to the hazards in an aluminum plate manufacturing plant are weighted by using Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP), then the orders of priority of 23 various hazard groups are determined by using Fuzzy TOPSIS (Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution) method. As a follow-up study of the case application, the proposed risk assessment methodology is applied for hazard types in each department of the plant. Depending on the hazard control hierarchy, control measures are overtaken for the hazards that are placed at first of intra-department rankings. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Altundogan, Hamdi Soner; Topdemir, Aykut; Çakmak, Meltem; Bahar, Nurdan
In this study, an effective cation exchanger was developed from the pine cone by citric acid modification and its hardness removal properties from the waters were investigated. For this purpose, ground pine cone samples were subjected to a citric acid modification following NaOH saponification. Both of the raw (RPC) and modified pine cone (MPC) samples were subjected to standardized hardness removal tests by shaking with hard waters. These tests showed that citric acid modification significantly increases the cation exchange capacity of the pine cone. Most suitable size fraction of pine cone was determined as -16 + 30 mesh (600 mu m < x < 1200 mu m). Also, citric acid modified product obtained from this fraction was used in a continuous system to remove hardness from water. The results of this study showed that the MPC can be used for hardness removal from waters as a cheap, durable and environment -friendly material. Finally, regeneration experiments showed that the MPC can be used for hardness removal from water repeatedly by a simple HCl regeneration. (C) 2015 Taiwan Institute of Chemical Engineers.

In this study, the effects of exposure to engineered nickel oxide (NiO 40-60 nm) and cobalt oxide (CoO < 100 nm) nanoparticles (NP) were investigated on Artemia salina. Aggregation and stability of the aqueous NP suspensions were characterized by DLS and TEM. Acute exposure was conducted on nauplii (larvae) in seawater in a concentration range from 0.2 to 50 mg/L NPs for 24 h (short term) and 96 h (long term). The hydrodynamic diameters of NiO and CoO NPs in exposure medium were larger than those estimated by TEM. Accumulation rate of NiO NPs were found to be four times higher than that of CoO NPs under the same experimental conditions. Examinations under phase contrast microscope showed that the nanoparticles accumulated in the intestine of Artemia, which increased with increasing exposure concentration. Differences were observed in the extent of dissolution of the NPs in the seawater. The CoO NPs dissolved significantly while NiO NPs were relatively more stable. Oxidative stress induced by the NP suspensions was measured by malondialdehyde assay. Suspensions of NiO NPs caused higher oxidative stress on nauplii than those of CoO NPs. The results imply that CoO and NiO NPs exhibit toxicity on Artemia (e. g., zooplankton) that is an important source of food in aquatic food chain.

Karaaslan, Nagihan M.; Yaman, Mehmet
Anthocyanins are a group of widespread natural phenolic compounds in vegetables and fruits. The anthocyanins have a wide range of applications due to the antioxidant, anticancer and anti-inflammatory properties. In this study, anthocyanins (delphinidin-3-o-glucoside, cyanidin-3-o-glucoside, pelargonidin-3-o-glucoside and malvidin-3-o-glucoside) in cherry and cranberry were determined using high-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (HPLC-ESI-MS). The anthocyanins were separated using gradient elution and a reserved-phase analytical column before identification by high-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry. A high-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry method was optimized for the determination of anthocyanins in cherry and cranberry. Furthermore, in this study, we investigated extraction conditions of fruit samples as well as determination of optimum HPLC-ESI-MS conditions. This study is novel in terms of simultaneously examining both optimization of HPLC parameters and extraction conditions. Obtained optimum conditions were used for the determination as the quantitative and qualitative analysis of anthocyanins in cherry and cranberry. The content of anthocyanins on the basis of wet weight in cherry and cranberry samples was determined for delphinidin-3-o-glucoside < d.l. (detection limit) and < d.l., for cyanidin-3-o-glucoside varied from 3.5 +/- A 0.4 to 8.3 +/- A 1.1 mg kg(-1) (average 5.8 +/- A 0.8 mg kg(-1)) and 9.8 +/- A 1.4 to 18 +/- A 3.0 mg kg(-1) (average 13.2 +/- A 1.8 mg kg(-1)), for pelargonidin-3-o-glucoside < d.l. and varied from 136 +/- A 19 to 233 +/- A 35 mg kg(-1) (average 185.3 +/- A 28 mg kg(-1)), for malvidin-3-o-glucoside < d.l. and < d.l., respectively.
