Accumulation Of Heavy Metals In Freshwater Organisms: Assessment Of Toxic Interactions, Neylan Di̇ri̇lgen Jan 2001

Accumulation Of Heavy Metals In Freshwater Organisms: Assessment Of Toxic Interactions, Neylan Di̇ri̇lgen

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Heavy metals are continuously released into the terrestrial environment by natural sources and human activities. The uptake and accumulation of heavy metals by plants promotes a mechanistic understanding of the biological significance of particular metal concentrations and distributions in biota. The toxicity of chromium, zinc, copper and cobalt ions and their binary mixtures are studied at varying test levels using duckweed as the test organism. The accumulation of metal ions are determined by atomic absorption spectroscopy. The type of toxic interactions in binary mixtures is assessed as `synergistic', `antagonistic' and `additive' by a statistical approach.

Incorporation Of Edta For The Elimination Of Metal Inhibitory Effects In An Amperometric Biosensor Based On Mushroom Tissue Polyphenol Oxidase, Arzum Erdem, Di̇lşat Özkan, Burcu Meri̇ç, Kağan Kerman, Mehmet Özsöz

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Enzyme based biosensors are highly selective devices which rely on the specific binding of the target analyte (the substrate) to the active-site regions of the enzyme. The enzymatic reaction between mushroom tissue polyphenol oxidase and its substrate phenol is coupled with the use of potassium ferrocyanide (K_{4}Fe(CN)_{6}) as the mediator in ammonia buffer solution (pH 8.80). The response of devices is often affected by the presence of inhibitors, which combine with the free enzyme in a manner that prevents substrate binding. The objective of this study is to describe an efficient and yet simple strategy to eliminate the interference of …


Calculation Of Multi-Center Integrals For The Region Of Moderate And Weak Overlap, Abdulhali̇k Karabulut, Gökhan Budak, Lütfü Demi̇r, Nagi̇f Sefteroğlu Nabi̇yev, Yusuf Şahi̇n Jan 2001

Calculation Of Multi-Center Integrals For The Region Of Moderate And Weak Overlap, Abdulhali̇k Karabulut, Gökhan Budak, Lütfü Demi̇r, Nagi̇f Sefteroğlu Nabi̇yev, Yusuf Şahi̇n

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

In this study a general formula was established for multi-center integrals over Gaussian basis sets using the two-center expansion of nuclear attraction and electron repulsion potentials. The terms of the formula are the analytical functions of interatomic distances. Three kinds of integrals contained in these formulae can be evaluated analytically. In the presented method, unlike many other popular methods, the numerical integrations procedure is unnecessary since it does not contain the incomplete gamma function. A computer program was written and tested for various orbitals. The calculations show that the series converge very rapidly.


The Influence Of Transition Metal Ions On The Kinetics Of Ascorbic Acid Oxidation By Methylene Blue In Strongly Acidic Media, M. Nasiruddin Khan, Anila Sarwar Jan 2001

The Influence Of Transition Metal Ions On The Kinetics Of Ascorbic Acid Oxidation By Methylene Blue In Strongly Acidic Media, M. Nasiruddin Khan, Anila Sarwar

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The kinetics of the oxidation of L-ascorbic acid (H_{2} A) by methylene blue was investigated in strongly acidic media over the temperature range 22-40 ^oC. The kinetic studies were carried out as a function of different variables like concentration, pH, ionic strength and temperature. The rate was found to be a linear relation with [H_{2} A], [M.B.] and [H^{+}]. Ionic strength dependence formation indicated complex formation by monocationic and anionic species in solution. The reaction rate was greatly catalyzed by the presence of trace amounts of copper (II) ion. Possible mechanisms for the catalyzed and uncatalyzed reactions are proposed. Kinetic …

Molecular Genetics Of Breast Cancer, Emel Ergül, Ali̇ Sazci Jan 2001

Molecular Genetics Of Breast Cancer, Emel Ergül, Ali̇ Sazci

Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences

Recent advances in molecular biology enable researchers to understand the basis of breast cancer much better and show that hereditery breast cancer may result from mutations on several specific gene loci including BRCA1, BRCA2, p53, ATM and PTEN. These genes are tumor supressor genes and although their functions are different, they are all involved in the maintenance of genomic stability after DNA damage. Mutations that impair the function of these genes may adversely affect the manner in which DNA damage is processed. It is likely that the risk of breast cancer development is increased through this mechanism. Moreover, there are …


The Low Above-Zero Temperature Effect In The Zone Of Roots On Nitrate Reductase Activity In Pea Organs In The Process Of Vegetating, G. G. Vasilieva, N. V. Mironova, A. K. Glyanko Jan 2001

The Low Above-Zero Temperature Effect In The Zone Of Roots On Nitrate Reductase Activity In Pea Organs In The Process Of Vegetating, G. G. Vasilieva, N. V. Mironova, A. K. Glyanko

Turkish Journal of Botany

Experiments with pea (Pisum sativum L.) cv. Marat) in a phytotron chamber showed that the process of nitrate assimilation in pea organs depends on temperature in the zone of the roots and on the phase of development of the plants. The potential of tissues of different organs for nitrate reduction was compared to the amount of nitrates which they accumalated. A decrease in nitrate reductase activity during certain phases of development is assumed to be related to the process of formation and functioning of nodules.

Synthesis And Characterization Of Copper(Ii), Nickel(Ii), Cadmium(Ii), Cobalt(Ii) And Zinc(Ii) Complexes With 2-Benzoyl-3-Hydroxy-1-Naphthylamino-3-Phenyl-2-Propen-1-On, Mehmet Sönmez

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II), Zn(II) and Cd(II) complexes of 2-Benzoyl-3-hydroxy-1-naphthylamino-3-phenyl-2-propen-1-on, which is a derivative of carboxamide, were prepared and characterized by elemental, spectral and magnetic methods. Based on the analytical results, electronic and infrared spectral data and magnetic susceptibility measurements, suitable structures have been proposed. The formation of the complexes in solution was investigated conductometrically. 2-Benzoyl-3-hydroxy-1-naphthylamino-3-phenyl-2-propen-1-on was found to be a bidentate ligand coordinating through enolic oxygen and amide nitrogen. The complexes of Co(II) and Ni(II) are proposed to have an octahedral structure, while Cd(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) are suggested to possess a square-planar environment in the complexes.

In Vitro Model For The Study Of Listeria And Salmonella Adherence To Intestinal Epithelial Cells, Nevzat Yurdusev

Turkish Journal of Biology

A quantitative test to study Listeria and Salmonella adherence to epithelial cells was developed. The quantitative test is rapid and allows the simultaneous testing of many variables such as the adherence ability of different bacteria to their target cells as well as the capability of various molecules to inhibit bacterial adherence. By using a strain-specific standard curve in each test, the test for the quantification of adherent bacteria became specifically sensitive. Non-viable biotinylated bacteria and immobilized cells or their extract were found relevant for the study of bacteria-epithelial cell interactions. Adherence ability of Listeria strains was found to be 10-fold …
