In the present work carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) and CMC-gelatin were used as carrier systems for urease immobilization. Immobilization was based on the formation of insoluble salts of CMC and gelatin with chromium(111) ions. Chromium(111) acetate (CA) and chromium(111) sulfate (CS) were used for this purpose and their effect on urease activity was investigated. The activities of immobilized urease using pure and CMC-gelatin carrier systems were compared. Urease activity was determined by using Berthelot method. Reuse number, pH, enzyme and cross linker concentrations and the incubation period were the factors taken into account in this investigation. Activity of immobilized enzymes were found to be stable for at least 2 months and 16-24 usage. Immobilization percentage obtained under optimum conditions was 40%.

Immobilization of Invertase in Copolymer of 2,5-Di(thiophen-2-yl)-1-p-Tolyl-1H-Pyrrole with Pyrrole Celebi, Selin; Ibibikcan, Esin; Kayahan, Senem; Yigitsoy, Basak; Toppare, Levent Kamil (Informa UK Limited, 2009-01-01) Immobilization of invertase in conducting copolymer matrix of 2,5-di(thiophen-2-yl)-1-p-tolyl-1H-pyrrole with pyrrole (poly(DDTP-co-Py)) was achieved via electrochemical polymerization. Kinetic parameters, Michaelis-Menten constant, Km and the maximum reaction rate, Vmax were investigated. Operational stability and temperature optimization of the enzyme electrodes were also examined. Immobilized invertase reveals maximum activity at 50 degrees C and; pH 8 and pH 4 for two copolymer matrices. Although the sa...
Dual type complementary colored polymer electrochromic devices based on conducting polymers of poly(hexanedioic acid bis-(2-thiophen-3-yl-ethyl ester) Camurlu, P; Toppare, Levent Kamil (Informa UK Limited, 2006-03-01) In this study, dual type polymer electrochromic devices (ECDs) based on homopolymer and copolymer of hexanedioic acid bis-(2-thiophen-3-yl-ethyl ester) with 3,4-ethylene dioxythiophene (EDOT) were constructed, where PEDOT functioned as the cathodically coloring layer. Spectroelectrochemistry, switching ability, stability, open circuit memory and color of the devices were investigated. Results of the kinetic studies showed these devices exhibit switching times around 1.8 s with an optical contrast of 24-25.3...
Immobilization of Tyrosinase in Poly(2-thiophen-3-yl-alkyl ester) Derivatives ÇAMURLU, PINAR; Kayahan, Senem; Toppare, Levent Kamil (Informa UK Limited, 2008-01-01) In this study, construction of novel biosensors for the determination of phenolic compound was performed via immobilization of tyrosinase during the electrochemical synthesis of conducting block copolymers of 2-thiophen-3-yl-alkyl ester derivatives with 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene and synthesis of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT). The resultant biosensors were characterized in terms of their maximum reaction rates, Michaelis-Menten constants (Km), temperature and pH stabilities. All the copolymer mat...
Conducting copolymers of random and block copolymers of electroactive and liquid crystalline monomers with pyrrole and thiophene Camurlu, Pinar; Toppare, Levent Kamil; Yilmaz, Faruk; Yagci, Yusuf; Galli, Giancarlo (Informa UK Limited, 2007-03-01) Block and random copolymers having 3-methyl thienylmethacrylate and 6-(4-cyanobiphenyl-4'-oxy) hexyl acrylate moieties were utilized as precursor polymers in this study. Electrochemical copolymerizations were performed in the presence of thiophene or pyrrole in acetonitrile-tetrabutylammonium tetrafluoroborate (TBAFB) at constant potential. The characterizations were performed by cyclic voltammetry (CV), fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermal gravime...
Influences of aminosilanization of halloysite nanotubes on the mechanical properties of polyamide-6 nanocomposites Erdogan, Ali Riza; Kaygusuz, Ilker; Kaynak, Cevdet (Wiley, 2014-07-01) The main purpose of this study was to explore effects of silanization of halloysite nanotubes (HNT) on the mechanical properties of polyamide 6 by using aminopropyltriethoxysilane. Effects of two silanization parameters; initial silane concentration and pH of reaction solution were also investigated. Nanocomposites were compounded via melt mixing method in a twin-screw extruder, while specimens were shaped by injection molding. Formation of aminosilane molecules on the edges and defected surfaces of HNTs we...
