This study presents studies on camptothecin (CPT), a potent antitumor agent in order to improve its stability and solubility without reducing its activity. The work describes the modification of camptothecin at 20-OH position a new strategy to overcome the stability and solubility problems of the free drug. Camptothecin is conneted to linker that could be processed to a terminal thiol group and this thiol group was connected to gold surface, to obtain CPT-gold nanoparticles. In the first part of the study; undecenol was chosen as the starting material and reacted with azobisisobutylonitrile to obtain S-11-hydroxyundecyl ethanethioate. 11-hydroxyundecyl ethanethioate was reacted with NaOMe to synthesize the target linker 11, 11’-disulfanediyldiundecan. After synthesis of the target linker, the 20- OH functional group of CPT was replaced with this linker to obtain 20- (11, 11’-disulfanediyldiundecan) - captothecin. The second part of the study, gold nanoparticles were synthesized by using HAuCl4 solution and the camptothecin derivative containing thiol group at 20-OH position was connected to the gold surface.

Synthesis of camptothecin derivatives Duygu, Arife Neşe; Demir, Ayhan Sıtkı; Department of Chemistry (2005) This study presents synthetic studies on camptothecin, a potent antitumor agent in order to improve its stability and solubility without reducing its activity. The study consists of the modification of camptothecin at 20-OH position a new strategy for the targeted and controlled release of the drug and modification at C-7 position to overcome the stability and solubility problems of the free drug. In the first part of the study, the 20-OH functional group of camptothecin was replaced with an unsymmetrical b...
Characterization of polypyrrole-thiophene capped poly(methyl methacrylate) via pyrolysis mass spectrometry Athar, Imran; Hacaloğlu, Jale; Toppare, Levent Kamil (2004-10-01) This article reports the direct pyrolysis mass spectrometry results on p-toluene sulfonate doped polypyrrole synthesized through the thiophene moities of thiophene-capped poly(methyl methacrylate), TPMMA. Pyrolysis data gave strong evidence for decomposition of the matrix polymer TPMMA during the electrochemical polymerization of pyrrole with a TPMMA coated anode. However, evolution of products diagnostic of TPMMA around 370°C, the temperature region of PPY degradation, and presence of fragments involving b...
Construction of an acetylcholinesterase-choline oxidase biosensor for aldicarb determination Kok, FN; Bozoglu, F; Hasırcı, Vasıf Nejat (2002-06-01) In this study, acetylcholinesterase and choline oxidase were co-immobilized on poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) membranes and the change in oxygen consumption upon aldicarb introduction was measured. Immobilization of the enzymes was achieved either by entrapment or by surface attachment via a hybrid immobilization method including epichlorohydrin and Cibacron Blue F36A activation. Immobilized enzymes had a long-storage stability (only 15% activity decrease in 2 months in wet storage and no activity loss i...
Preparation and characterization of W/O/W type double emulsion containing PGPR-lecithin mixture as lipophilic surfactant ALTUNTAS, Ozlem Yuce; Şümnü, Servet Gülüm; Şahin, Serpil (Informa UK Limited, 2017-01-01) The objective of this study is to produce double emulsion by combining polyglycerol polyricinoleate (PGPR) with lecithin as lipophilic surfactant. Although lecithin alone produced only oil-in-water type emulsion, the mixture of lecithin and PGPR could produce water-in-oil type emulsion as well. Moreover, different emulsification treatments were applied to study the influence of homogenization methods on the physicochemical characteristics. The obtained double emulsions were compared in terms of stability an...
The effects of some methacrylate monomers used as liquid component on tensile and flexural strengths of a poly (methyl methacrylate) denture base resin Do'an, Orhan Murat; Bolayir, Giray; Keskin, Selda; Boztug, Ali; Do'an, Arife; Bek, Buelent (2006-12-01) This study was conducted to observe the effect of different monomers on tensile and flexural strengths of poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) denture base resin when they were used as a liquid component. A conventional heat-cured denture base polymer powder was mixed with ethyl, isobutyl and tert-butyl methacrylate monomers, respectively. After the polymerization process was completed, the tensile and flexural strength values of these specimens were compared with those that of PMMA resin specimens polymerized...
