In the present work, the interaction of calcium-phosphate with DPPC (dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine) model membranes has been studied in the presence and absence of vitamin D<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>by using Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. Calcium and phosphorus are the most abundant elements in the body. They combine in the form of calcium phosphate salt, called hydroxyapatite. Hydroxyapatite is the major structural component of the bone. Calcium phosphate assists with the digestion and absorption of food and is vitally important for the building of sturdy bone and body structures and a robust constitution. Phosphorus is extracted from foods and its use is controlled by vitamin D and calcium. FTIR spectral analysis results suggested that, calcium–phosphate complex, which is the major component of the bones, decreases the phase transition temperature to lower values, causes a loss in cooperativity of the acyl chains, decreases the order of the membrane in both phases and decreases the dynamics of the membrane in the liquid crystalline phase, increases the flexibility of the chains in the center of the bilayer in both phases, and increases the mobility of the head group of DPPC in the gel phase. The effect of calcium-phosphate on DPPC liposomes diminishes with the addition of vitamin D<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>into the liposomes. Our results suggest how calcium-phosphate and/or vitamin D<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>, which have indispensable role for the functioning of the bone tissue, affect the thermal behaviour of DPPC liposomes at molecular level.

Competitive effect of vitamin D-2 and Ca2+ on phospholipid model membranes: an FTIR study
Toyran, N; Severcan, Feride (2003-04-01)
The interaction of Ca2+, with dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine (DPPC) model membranes was studied in the presence and absence of vitamin D-2 by using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Addition of vitamin D-2 and/or Ca2+ into pure DPPC liposomes shifts the phase transition to higher temperature, orders and decreases the dynamics of the acyl chains in both phases and does not induce hydrogen bond formation in the interfacial region. Moreover, the dynamics of the head group of the phospholipid decreases ...
Differentiation of mesophilic and thermophilic bacteria with Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy
Garip, Sebnem; Bozoglu, Faruk; Severcan, Feride (SAGE Publications, 2007-02-01)
In the present study the characterization and differentiation of mesophilic and thermophilic bacteria were investigated by using Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. Our results showed significant differences between the FT-IR spectra of mesophilic and thermophilic bacteria. The protein-to-lipid ratio was significantly higher for thermophiles compared to mesophiles. The absorption intensity of the CH3 asymmetric stretching vibration was higher in thermophilic bacteria, indicating a change in the...
Temperature dependence of the phospholipids bilayers stability, studied by FTIR spectroscopy
Severcan, Feride; Agheorghiesei, Catalin; Dorohoi, Dana-Ortansa (2008-03-01)
The temperature induced modifications in the lipid bilayers in water were studied by using 2D-FTIR Correlation Spectroscopy. The spectral range analysed in this paper corresponds to symmetric and asymmetric stretching vibrations of the -CH2 groups from the acyl chains of DPPC. Autocorrelation peaks at 2916 cm(-1) and 2848.5 cm(-1) and asynchrone modifications in the spectral ranges 2916-3000 cm(-1) and 2848-3000 cm(-1) were evidenced. The revealed modifications indicate changes in the conformers of the hydr...
Biophysical studies of progesterone-model membrane interactions
Korkmaz, Filiz; Kırbıyık, Halil; Severcan, Feride; Department of Physics (2003)
Interactions of progesterone with zwitterionic dipalmitoyl phosphotidylcholine (DPPC) multilamellar liposomes (MLVs) were investigated as a function of temperature and progesterone concentration by using three non-invasive techniques of Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, turbidity at 440 nm and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC).The results show that lmol% of progesterone does not induce a significant change in the shape of thermotropic profile of DPPC. However as progesterone concentratio...
Surface-enhanced Raman scattering spectroscopy via gold nanostars
Nalbant Esentürk, Emren (Wiley, 2009-01-01)
Anisotropic metallic nanoparticles (NPs) have unique optical properties, which lend them to applications such as surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectroscopy. Star-shaped gold (Au) NPs were prepared in aqueous solutions by the seed-mediated growth method and tested for Raman enhancement using 2-mercaptopyridine (2-MPy) and crystal violet (CV) probing molecules. For both molecules, the SERS activity of the nanostars was notably stronger than that of the spherical Au NPs of similar size. The Raman en...
