Feasibility of dating caliche nodules by ESR and TL is investigated. For both methods the properties of the dating signal are described. Chemical composition as well as TL glow curves of caliches originating from different localities exhibit some differences. Due to the complexity of the TL glow curves, some samples required a special post-annealing procedure in order to resolve the main TL peak for age determination. Typical ESR calcite signals do not exist in caliche, therefore usefulness of the g = 2.0040 ESR signal is studied. The results of TL and ESR ages are found to be compatible except for two samples. Possible causes of the discrepancy in these samples are discussed. It is shown that, with proper treatment of the radiation-induced signals, it was possible to date caliche formations older than 350 ka, which is not achieveable with other methods like uranium series disequilibrium and/or radiocarbon dating.

Quantitative structure-activity relationship study of some 7-substituted theophyllines Türker, Burhan Lemi; Akgun, H; Balkan, A (1998-01-01) Some novel 7-substituted theophylline derivatives have been investigated for quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR). For this purpose, their bronchodilatory activities (in vitro), which were examined by the inhibition of acetylcholine induced contraction in tracheae isolated from guinea pigs, have been correlated with various quantum chemical and physicochemical parameters.
Electrochemical Properties of Perylene Diimide (PDI) and Benzotriazole (Btz) Bearing Conjugated Polymers to Investigate the Effect of pi-Bridge on Electrochemical Properties BAYSEC, Sebnem; UNLU, Naime Akbasoglu; HACIOGLU, Serife O.; Udum, Yasemin Arslan; Çırpan, Ali; Toppare, Levent Kamil (2015-01-02) In this study, a series of benzotriazole (BTZ) and perylene diimide (PDI) based copolymers; CoP1 and CoP2 were synthesized via Stille coupling. The effect of perylene diimide (PDI) unit on electrochemical properties of BTZ bearing polymers was investigated. In addition, two different pi-bridges: thiophene and dithienopyrrole (DTP) were incorporated into polymer backbone to explore their effects on electrochemical and spectroelectrochemical properties of corresponding polymers; CoP1 and CoP2. Electrochemical...
Transcriptional engineering of the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase promoter for improved heterologous protein production in Pichia pastoris Ata, Ozge; Prielhofer, Roland; Gasser, Brigitte; Mattanovich, Diethard; Çalık, Pınar (2017-10-01) The constitutive glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase promoter (P-GAP), which is one of the benchmark promoters of Pichia pastoris, was analyzed in terms of putative transcription factor binding sites. We constructed a synthetic library with distinct regulatory properties through deletion and duplication of these putative transcription factor binding sites and selected transcription factor (TF) genes were overexpressed or deleted to understand their roles on heterologous protein production. Using enhanc...
A novel multielectrochromic copolymer based on 1-(4-nitrophenyl)-2,5-di(2-thienyl)-1H-pyrrole and EDOT Varis, Serhat; Ak, Metin; Akhmedov, Iris M.; Tanyeli, Cihangir; Toppare, Levent Kamil (2007-05-01) Copolymer of 1-(4-nitrophenyl)-2,5-di(2-thienyl)-1H-pyrrole (NTP) with 3,4-ethylene dioxythiophene (EDOT) was electrochemically synthesized and characterized. Resulting copolymer film has distinct electrochromic properties. It has five different colors (light red, red, light grey, green, and blue). At the neutral state lambda(max) x value due to the pi-pi* transition was found to be 550 nm and E-g was calculated as 1.6 eV. Double potential step chronoamperometry experiment shows that copolymer film has good...
Determination of binary pesticide mixtures by an acetylcholinesterase-choline oxidase biosensor Kok, FN; Hasırcı, Vasıf Nejat (2004-02-15) In this study, acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and choline oxidase (ChO) were co-immobilized on poly (2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (pHEMA) membranes to construct a biosensor for the detection of anti-cholinesterase compounds. pHEMA membranes were prepared with the addition of SnCl4 to achieve the desired porosity. Immobilization of the enzymes was done by surface attachment via epichlorohydrin (Epi) and Cibacron Blue F3G-A (CB) activation. Enzyme immobilized membrane was used in the detection of anti-cholineste...
