Synthesis of poly (dl-lactic-co-glycolic acid) coated magnetic nanoparticles for anti-cancer drug delivery Tansık, Gülistan; Gündüz, Ufuk; Department of Biology (2012) One of the main problems of current cancer chemotherapy is the lack of selectivity of anti-cancer drugs to tumor cells which leads to systemic toxicity and adverse side effects. In order to overcome these limitations, researches on controlled drug delivery systems have gained much attention. Nanoscale based drug delivery systems provide tumor targeting. Among many types of nanocarriers, superparamagnetic nanoparticles with their biocompatible polymer coatings can be targeted to an intented site by an extern...

LONGITUDINAL ELASTIC-WAVE PROPAGATION AND ENERGY FLUX AT A DISCONTINUITY OF 2 DISSIMILAR SEMIINFINITE CIRCULAR RODS Yıldırım, Raif Orhan (1994-10-01) Elastic wave propagation through an area discontinuity of two dissimilar, bonded, semi-infinite circular rods is investigated analytically. In particular, the variations of the coefficients of stress reflection and transmission are determined in terms of the nondimensional cross sectional area and mechanical impedance parameters. The coefficients of energy flux reflection and transmission are also included. Then, the case is generalized to include a rigid mass attached at the discontinuity.

Examination of the coping processes of caregivers of children with cancer Demirtepe Saygılı, Dilek; Bozo Özen, Özlem; Department of Psychology (2013) The general aim of the present dissertation was to examine the coping processes of the caregivers of children with cancer. It was composed of three studies, whose aims were (1) to reveal the predictors of caregiver distress by using the Transactional Theory of Coping among the caregivers of children with cancer; (2) to identify the factors associated with caregiving process from the caregiver’s perspective qualitatively; (3) to develop and implement an intervention program. Study 1 was conducted with 105 pa...
