Degradation of decabromodiphenyl ether (BDE-209) in microcosms mimicking sediment environment subjected to comparative bioremediation strategies
Demirtepe, Hale; İmamoğlu, İpek (Elsevier BV, 2019-03-01)
The aim of this study was to examine bioremediation strategies for BDE-209 contaminated sediments. Sediment microcosms were established to observe anaerobic debromination of BDE-209 under conditions representing three bioremediadon strategies: biostimulation, bioaugmentation and natural attenuation. To simulate biostimulation, a defined mineral medium containing both a carbon source (sodium formate) and electron donor (ethanol) was added into sediments. Bioaugmentation was established by enrichment of the s...
Degradation of Bisphenol A in Natural and Artificial Marine and Freshwaters in Turkey
Kocaman, Emel; Özhan, Koray (2019-09-01)
Bisphenol A (BPA), one of the important synthetic chemicals, has been produced at high volumes since the 1960s. These chemicals are commonly detected in the marine and freshwater environments; however, their transformation in aquatic environments depends on many parameters. This study aims to investigate the degradation of BPA in marine and freshwaters under different conditions in terms of microbial degradation, photodegradation, and temperature effect. The results showed that BPA content in samples prepar...
Degradation of poly(bisphenol-a-epichlorohydrin) by gamma irradiation
Ozdemir, Tonguc; Usanmaz, Ali (Elsevier BV, 2008-06-01)
In this study, radiation stability of poly(bisphenol-a-epichloroliydrin) (PBEH) was studied via gamma irradiations at two different dose rates of 1540 and 82.8 Gy/h, in order to understand the possible use of PBEH in radioactive waste management as a solidifying agent. The total dose of irradiation was up to 2150kGy. Degradation nature was tested by studying the changes in mechanical and thermal properties with the change of dose rate and total dose of irradiation. Tensile strength at yield was increased fi...
Synthesis and biological evaluation of novel pyrazolic chalcone derivatives as novel hepatocellular carcinoma therapeutics.
Hawash, Mohammed M. A.; Kahraman, Deniz Cansen; Eren, Fikriye; Atalay, Rengül; BAYTAŞ, Sultan (2017-03-31)
Despite having the second highest mortality associated with cancer, currently Sorafenib is the only FDA-approved chemotherapeutic agent available for liver cancer patients which can only improve survival for few months. In this study, various pyrazolic chalcone analogous compounds were synthesized and evaluated as potential chemotherapeutic agents for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Modifying the central pyrazole ring at the C(3)-position with different heteroaryl rings and substituting the...
Degradation of chlorinated compounds by Penicillium camemberti in batch and up-flow column reactors
Taseli, BK; Gökçay, Celal Ferdi (Elsevier BV, 2005-02-01)
A Penicillium camemberti strain isolated in this laboratory was studied for its ability to degrade chlorinated compounds including pentachlorophenol (PCP), 2-chlorophenol and trichloroacetic acid. The batch experiments were conducted in shake flasks using PCP as co-substrate resulting in around 56% PCP removal by the fungus. Experiments in shake flasks not containing acetate but Tween 80, produced 86% of PCP and 53% of 2-chlorophenol removals in 21 days. PCP was also fed to a column reactor with an adsorbab...
