Öğe Application of Carrier Element Free Coprecipitation (CEFC) Method for Determination of Co(II), Cu(II) and Ni(II) Ions in Food and Water Samples(Slovensko Kemijsko Drustvo, 2013) Serencam, Huseyin; Duran, Celal; Ozdes, Duygu; Bektas, HakanA simple and highly sensitive separation and preconcentration procedure, which has minimal impact on the environment, has been developed. The procedure is based on the carrier element free coprecipitation (CEFC) of Co(II), Cu(II), and Ni(II) ions by using 2-{4-[2-(1H-indol-3-yl)ethyl]-3-(4-methylbenzyl)-5-oxo-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl}-N'-(pyridin-2-yl methylidene)acetohydrazide (IMOTPA), as an organic coprecipitant. The levels of analyte ions were determined by flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS). The detection limits for Co(II), Cu(II) and Ni(II) ions were found to be 0.40, 0.16 and 0.17 mu g L-1, respectively, and the relative standard deviations for the analyte ions were lower than 3.0%. Spike tests and certified reference material analyses were performed to validate the method. The method was successfully applied for the determination of Co(II), Cu(II) and Ni(II) ions levels in sea and stream water as liquid samples and red pepper, black pepper, and peppermint as solid samples.Öğe Diversity and functional characteristics of lactic acid bacteria from traditional kefir grains(Wiley, 2020) Purutoglu, Kubra; Ispirli, Humeyra; Yuzer, Mustafa Onur; Serencam, Huseyin; Dertli, EnesTraditional kefir grains were collected from distinct parts of Turkey, and their microbial profile was determined. A wide bacterial biota was observed formed by distinct lactic acid bacteria (LAB) in which Lactococcus lactis strains appeared to be dominant. Yeast species were also identified in kefir grains. Significant levels of antifungal and antibacterial activities were monitored in kefir isolates. All tested LAB produced an exopolysaccharide (EPS) containing glucose and galactose, and some strains formed a fructan-type EPS. Importantly, low levels of antibiotic resistance were observed among the kefir isolates.Öğe Modeling design parameters with Taguchi experimental method for obtaining operating conditions for Cu(II) removal through adsorption process(Desalination Publ, 2019) Serencam, Huseyin; Ozdemir, Akin; Teke, Cagatay; Ucurum, MetinOne of the environmental concerns deals with the removal process of pollutants in water and wastewater. In this paper, a removal process was used to eliminate pollutants in water and wastewater. The aim of this paper was to obtain an optimum adsorption condition for the highest metal ions adsorbed (MIA) mg/g. For this particular purpose, a Taguchi L-18 design was conducted. In addition, the signal-to-noise ratio was analyzed for optimum adsorption levels. The analysis of variance was also performed to evaluate the effect of each adsorption condition on MIA (mg/g) values. Moreover, an optimization model was also proposed to find the best optimal setting of adsorption levels. Then, the confirmation tests were performed using optimum coded levels of the adsorption parameters for the verification purpose. The results of the experimental study showed a good performance that Cu(II) removal capacity was found to be 43.66 mg/g. To the best of our knowledge, this research is the first to study natural stone as an efficient, inexpensive and cheap adsorbent for the removal process.Öğe A novel weighted mean-squared error optimization model to obtain optimal conditions of adsorption factors for a lead removal process(Desalination Publ, 2021) Ozdemir, Akin; Teke, Cagatay; Serencam, Huseyin; Ucurum, Metin; Gundogdu, AliLead (Pb) removal process from wastewater is an important issue to prevent health problems for people. For this particular purpose, a low-cost adsorbent may be beneficial for improving the adsorption capacity for the Pb removal process. The aims of this paper are four-fold. First of all, a D-optimal experimental design was selected to reduce experimental runs and its cost. Second, the effect of four adsorption design factors, stirring speed (rpm), adsorbent dosage (g), pH level, and initial metal concentration (ppm), was examined. Also, the yellow natural stone, which is from Bayburt, Turkey, was used as a cheap adsorbent for the Pb removal process from the solution. Third, a novel weighted mean-squared error optimization model was developed to obtain optimal adsorption levels for adsorption factors. Besides, a verification study was conducted to verify the results of the adsorption experiment. Finally, the lead (Pb( II)) removal capacity of the yellow Bayburt stone was obtained to be 46.031 mg/g, and the results of the experiment from the proposed methodology showed a good performance for the removal study.Öğe Optimization of Asymmetric Bioreduction Conditions of 2-methyl-1-phenylpropan-1-one by Lactobacillus fermentum BY35 Using I-Optimal Design-Based Model(Springer Heidelberg, 2022) Aksuoglu, Selmani; Ozdemir, Akin; Serencam, Huseyin; Dertli, Enes; Sahin, EnginThe bioreduction of prochiral ketones offers efficient access to chiral secondary alcohols, which are potentially beneficial precursors for producing many biologically active compounds and natural products. This bioreduction process can be affected by different parameters when whole-cell of biocatalysts such as Lactic Acid Bacteria strains are applied. In this context, this paper proposed an I-optimal design-based model to optimize culture parameters such as temperature, pH, incubation period, and agitation speed for asymmetric bioreduction of 2-methyl-1-phenylpropan-1-one (1) with Lactobacillus fermentum BY35 as a biocatalyst while achieving the highest conversion rate (cr) and enantiomeric excess (ee). The optimum settings of the four culture parameters and the cr and ee values were found using the proposed optimization model as follows: pH = 6.5, temperature = 25 degrees C, incubation period = 38.5 h, agitation speed = 200 rpm, the ee value = 98.78%, and the cr value = 98.92%. After the validation of the process, the cr and ee values were found to be > 99% and > 99%, respectively, while using the optimum operating conditions from the optimization model. Thus, the results of the optimization model are consistent with the results of the validation experiment. It is also noted that this paper is the first to optimize culture parameters using the proposed I-optimal design-based model for an asymmetric reduction.Öğe Optimization of Extraction Parameters of Ethanol Extracts of Propolis Samples Using Artificial Neural Network and Moth-Flame Optimization Algorithm(Sciendo, 2021) Gurgen, Aysenur; Serencam, Huseyin; Kara, Yakup; Can, Zehra; Yildiz, SibelIn this study, the optimum values of propolis ethanol extracts parameters were determined with the use of single and multi-objective optimization procedures. The euclidean distance approach was used in the multi-objective optimization process. Firstly, propolis was extracted using water with ethanol contents 40, 50, 60, 70 and 80% for 8, 10, 12, 16, 20 and 24 h. Then, total phenolic content (TPC) and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) activities of all extracts were determined. With the obtained data a prediction model was produced with the use of artificial neural networks (ANN), and optimization was performed using a moth-flame (MFO) algorithm. The best prediction models for the TPC and FRAP were observed in 2-5-1 and 2-5-1 network architecture with the mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) values, 5.126 and 2.451%, respectively. For maximum TPC, the extraction parameters were determined as ethanol content 57.5% and extraction time 13.56 h. To maximize FRAP, the optimized extraction parameters were ethanol content 72.03% and extraction time 18.04 h. The optimum extraction conditions for both maximum values of the studied assays were ethanol content 70.03% and extraction time 16.93 h. The study concluded that the integrated ANN and MFO algorithm system can be used in single and multi-objective optimization of extraction parameters. The established optimization model can save time, money, labor and energy.Öğe Recovery of unburned carbonaceous matter (UCM) from sugar mill bottom ash(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2020) Katircioglu-Bayel, Diler; Serencam, Huseyin; Ucurum, MetinMillions of tons of coal fly and bottom ash are produced each year in many countries including Turkey. Coal combustion which is the main source of energy in sugar mill and many other industries produce massive quantities of waste. The present study aims to separate the unburned carbonaceous matter (UCM) from the bottom ash of Bor, Nigde-Turkey sugar plant has been studied using the mechanical flotation technique. For this purpose, the performances of three classical oils were investigated and then chemical parameters such as sodium silicate (Na2SiO3), collector (fuel-oil) and frother (pine-oil) were systematically examined by using Yates' statistical technique. A product with 41.58% combustible grade at 87.44% recovery was obtained at 0 g/t sodium silicate, 7464 g/t fuel-oil, 888 g/t pine-oil, 15% pulp density, 1200 rpm impeller speed and natural pH. The results obtained from the experiments indicated that it was possible to enrich the bottom ash by using conventional flotation.Öğe SOME EDIBLE FOREST FRUITS THEIR IN VITRO ANTIOXIDANT ACTIVITIES, PHENOLIC COMPOUNDS AND SOME ENZYME INHIBITION EFFECTS(Parlar Scientific Publications (P S P), 2019) Okan, Onur Tolga; Serencam, Huseyin; Baltas, Nimet; Can, ZehraThe purpose of the study was to analyze the potential health-promoting components of some edible forest species of fruits. These are Service tree (Sorbus domestica), Black rosehip (Rosa pimpinellifolia), Red rosehip (Rosa canina), Bay fruit (Laurus nobilis), Cornelian cherry (Cornus mas), Autumnolive (Elaeagnus umbellate), and two different blueberry fruits (Vaccinium arctostaplylos and Vaccinium myrtillus). In the present study, chemical and antioxidant activities, phenolic compounds as well as, inhibition effects on important enzymes (acetylcholinesterase, xanthine oxidase and urease) of fruits were studied. Total polyphenol, flavonoid content, and the in-vitro antioxidant activity were evaluated by DPPH and FRAP. The sugar contents and phenolic compounds of the fruits were analyzed by HPLC-RID and HPLC-UV. Fruits was determined the total polyphenol content (TPC) 1.10 to 19.87 mgGAE/g, total flavonoid content (TFC) 0.01 to 0.80 mgQE/g, DPPH values 0.22 to 6.03 mg/mL and FRAP values 4.24 to 168. 02 mu mol FeSO(4)7H(2)O/ g. All samples were determined various rate fructose and glucose. HPLC-UV revealed fruits contained different phenolic compounds. Inhibition values of the enzymes were expressed as inhibition concentration (IC50: mg/mL or mu g/mL). It can be concluded that edible forest fruits are a potential source of antioxidants with therapeutic importance as well a natural enzyme inhibitor.
