Ozdes, Duygu; Duran, Celal; Serencam, Huseyin; Sahin, Deniz; Gundogdu, Ali; Soylak, Mustafa
A simple, sensitive, facile and low cost methodology, combined with flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS), was employed to evaluate the selective separation and preconcentration of Pd(II) ions in environmental samples by using a triazole derivative as an organic coprecipitating agent without a carrier element. The developed method was systematically investigated in different set of experimental parameters that influence the quantitative recovery of Pd(II) ions. The accuracy of the method was tested by analyzing certified reference material and spike tests. The developed coprecipitation procedure has been applied to road dust, anodic slime, industrial electronic waste materials and water samples to determine their Pd(II) levels.

Topal, M.; Aksakal, V.; Bayram, B.; Yaǧanoǧlu, M.
Performance records (birth weight and actual milk yield) on 206 Swedish Red cattle maintained at private organic diary cattle enterprise in Kelkit district of Gümüşhane province, in Turkey, were analyzed through regression tree method to determine the effects of some factors affecting birth weight and actual milk yield. The birth weight of calves averaged as 41.034±4.218 kg. Out of total calves born, twin born calves were 2.9%. Single born calves were heavier (41.185±3.840 kg) than twin born (36.000±10.545 kg). The results revealed that the most significant variable affecting birth weight was birth type, followed by birth season, sex and body condition score (BCS2) of the dam during birth. Lactation period and peak milk yield were important variables affecting the actual milk yield in the dairy herd under investigation.

Kaygusuz, Abdullah; Arslan, Mehmet; Siebel, Wolfgang; Şen, Cüneyt
Major, trace element, K -Ar age and Sr-Nd isotopic data are presented for the Eocene Torul volcanics in the eastern Pontide orogenic belt (NE Turkey). The studied rocks are composed of basaltic andesitic, andesitic, trachyandesitic, and minor trachydacitic lavas associated with their pyroclastics. These rocks contain plagioclase (An2-44), hornblende (Mg#= 0.78-0.98), clinopyroxene (Wo43-46 En41-43 Fs10-15), biotite, quartz, and minor sanidine phenocrysts. K-Ar ages on hornblendes ages range from 43.99 (±2.59) to 33.45 (±2.32) Ma, within the Middle to Late Eocene. The volcanic rocks show calc-alkaline affinities and have medium to high K contents. They are enriched in large ion lithophile (LILE) and light rare earth elements (LREE), with pronounced depletion of high field strength elements (HFSE). The chondrite-normalized REE patterns (Lacn/Lucn= 4.0-9.8) show low to medium enrichment, indicating similar sources for the rock suite. Initial 87Sr/86Sr values vary between 0.70457 and 0.70511 and initial 143Nd/144Nd values between 0.51264 and 0.51278. The main solidification processes involved in the evolution of the volcanics consist of fractional crystallization with minor amounts of crustal contamination ± magma mixing. All evidence supports the conclusion that the parental magma(s) of the rocks probably derived from an enriched upper mantle, previously modified by subduction- induced metasomatism in a post-collisional geodynamic setting.

Sari, M.S.; Bektaş, Ö.B.
Gypsum crops out widely in the areas where the urbanization is intense in Sivas city center. In this study, in an appropriate selected area, geophysical characteristics and structure of gypsum have been investigated by applying geophysical methods of GPR (Ground Penetrating Radar). GPR measurements have been taken as 11 profiles with a Ramac GPR device by using 250 MHz shield-antenna. The distance between each profile has been taken as 2m and the length of each profile has been taken as 50m. All the area has been surveyed and ground radar sections have been obtained by GPR method. Gathering all the data, it has been found out that the areas with strong reflections (for the first 5m. depth) revealed in ground radar sections are not homogeneous massive gypsum bodies as presented in geological studies and contain different size and position fill material (clastic material). In addition, investigating such areas through GPR method has enabled to reveal the geophysical characteristics of the region as gypsum contains fractures-cracks, fillings and dissolution spaces.

Top, Y.
The number of small-scale businesses within most national economies is generally high, especially in developing countries. Often these businesses have a weak economic status and limited environmental awareness. The type and amount of waste produced, and the recycling methods adopted by these businesses during their operation can have negative effects on the environment. This study investigated the types of waste generated and the recycling methods adopted in micro-sized enterprises engaged in the manufacture of furniture. An assessment was also made of whether the characteristics of the enterprise had any effect on the waste recycling methods that were practised. A survey was conducted of 31 enterprises in the furniture industry in Gumushane province, Turkey, which is considered a developing economy. Surveys were undertaken via face-to-face interviews. It was found that medium-density fibreboard (MDF), and to a lesser extent, chipboard, were used in the manufacture of furniture, and two major types of waste in the form of fine dust and small fragments of board are generated during the cutting of these boards. Of the resulting composite board waste, 96.9% was used for heating homes and workplaces, where it was burnt under conditions of incomplete combustion. Enterprises were found to have adopted other methods to utilise their wastes in addition to using them as fuel. Such enterprises include those operating from a basement or first floor of a building in the cities, those continuing production throughout the year, those in need for capital and those enterprises not operating a dust-collection system.

Sezer, Ismet
In this study, the use of dimethyl ether (DME) and diethyl ether (DEE) in diesel engines as alternative fuels investigated. A commercial suction (naturally-aspirated) direct injection (SDI) automobile diesel engine was chosen for investigation. Thermodynamic and performance analysis has been performed via a thermodynamic diesel engine cycle model. Thermodynamic and performance parameters computed and compared for diesel, DME and DEE fuels at two different situations. Results showed that DME and DEE presented the lower cylinder temperature and pressure, so a lower engine performance than diesel fuel for equal injection conditions. Brake power decreases about 32.1% and 19.4% at 4200 rpm while brake specific fuel consumption increases about 47.1% and 24.7% at 2200 rpm for DME and DEE, respectively. However, engine performance of DME and DEE extensively improves for the equal equivalence ratio condition, although more amount of fuel injection about 64 percent for DME and 32 percent for DEE is essential. The increments obtained by DME and DEE are about 13.6% and 6% in brake power at 4200 rpm compared to diesel. Brake specific fuel consumption is still higher about 43.5% for DME and 23.6% for DEE than diesel. Brake thermal efficiency of DME and DEE is generally better than diesel fuel.

The benefits of taking of aspirin, clopidogrel, and warfarin in relation to cardiovascular mortality and re-hospitalization in chronic heart failure (HF) patients have been called into question. We examined the outcomes (cardiac mortality and/or HF re-hospitalization) in patients discharged from our hospital between January 2003 and July 2009 after hospitalization for chronic decompensated HF. Of 580 HF patients (mean age, 63 ± 13 years; mean ejection fraction, 26 ± 9%, 63% with coronary disease and 37% without coronary disease), 207 patients (36%) died due to cardiovascular reasons, and 313 (54%) required HF re-hospitalization for decompensated HF during a 39 ± 14 month follow-up period. 101 (17%) patients were taking clopidogrel during enrollment in the study. When comparing patients who were on clopidogrel treatment with those who were not, clopidogrel was found to have a beneficial effect on cardiac mortality (27 vs. 38%, P = 0.04). In conclusion, in this observational prospective study, patients who used clopidogrel showed decreased cardiac mortality [HR, 0.566 (95% CI 0.332-0.964), P = 0.036] compared to patients who did not take clopidogrel. Clopidogrel had a beneficial effect on the survival of chronic HF patients in the long term.

Kement, Metin; Censur, Zafer; Oncel, Mustafa; Buyukokuroglu, Mehmet E.; Gezen, Fazli C.
Background: This study aimed to assess the safety and effectiveness of different dosages of heparin for adhesion prevention by comparing with Seprafilm®, in a murine model. Materials and methods: Seventy five Balb/c mice were randomized into five groups. Group C were reserved as controls, and 62.5 IU, 125 IU, 250 IU of heparin, and Seprafilm® were intraperitoneally applied in studied groups. The severity and locations of adhesions were assessed after the sacrification on day 14. The cause of death was investigated to evaluate the side effects of the drugs. Results: The death of 2 subjects due to peritonitis (1 in Group C, 1 in Group H62.5) left 14 subjects in Group C and Group H62.5 (P ≥ 0.05), and no hemorrhage related death was observed. The use of the products significantly reduced the severity score of adhesion and the number of animals, had adhesions in different locations of the abdominal cavity, when the results were compared with the control group (P < 0.05 for all comparisons). Higher dosages of heparin seemed to be more effective. The results in group S, groups H250 and H125 were quite similar. Conclusions: Relatively high doses (125 IU and 250 IU) of intra-abdominal heparin may be comparable in safety and effectiveness to Seprafilm® in adhesion prevention in mice.

Uysal, Ibrahim; Şen, A. Dündar; Ersoy, E. Yalçin; Dilek, Yildirim; Saka, Samet; Zaccarini, Federica; Escayola, Monica; Karsli, Orhan
We present the whole-rock and the mineral chemical data for upper mantle peridotites from the Harmanci{dotless}k region in NW Turkey and discuss their petrogenetic-tectonic origin. These peridotites are part of a Tethyan ophiolite belt occurring along the İzmir-Ankara-Ercincan suture zone in northern Turkey, and include depleted lherzolites and refractory harzburgites. The Al2O3 contents in orthopyroxene and clinopyroxene from the depleted lherzolite are high, and the Cr-number in the coexisting spinel is low falling within the abyssal field. However, the orthopyroxene and clinopyroxene in the harzburgites have lower Al2O3 contents for a given Cr-number of spinel, and plot within the lower end of the abyssal field. The whole-rock geochemical and the mineral chemistry data imply that the Harmanci{dotless}k peridotites formed by different degrees of partial melting (~%10-27) of the mantle. The depleted lherzolite samples have higher MREE and HREE abundances than the harzburgitic peridotites, showing convex-downward patterns. These peridotites represent up to ~16 % melting residue that formed during the initial seafloor spreading stage of the Northern Neotethys. On the other hand, the more refractory harzburgites represent residues after ~4-11 % hydrous partial melting of the previously depleted MOR mantle, which was metasomatized by slab-derived fluids during the early stages of subduction. The Harmanci{dotless}k peridotites, hence, represent the fragments of upper mantle rocks that formed during different stages of the tectonic evolution of the Tethyan oceanic lithosphere in Northern Neotethys. We infer that the multi-stage melting history of the Harmanci{dotless}k peridotites reflect the geochemically heterogeneous character of the Tethyan oceanic lithosphere currently exposed along the İzmir-Ankara-Erzincan suture zone.
