    Investigation of the Genotoxic Effect of Fluoxetine Hydrochloride in Drosophila melanogaster
    (KSU TARIM VE DOGA DERGISI-KSU JOURNAL OF AGRICULTURE AND NATURE, 2024-04-17) Oz, Selda; Sarikaya, Zeynep Nur; Larcin, Ozum; Sarikaya, Rabia
    This study aimed to determine the potential genotoxic effect of fluoxetine hydrochloride (FLX-HCl), an antidepressant commonly used for treating depression, using Somatic Mutation and Recombination Test (SMART). Third-instar Drosophila melanogaster larvae transheterozygous for the mutations multiple wing hair (mwh) and flare (flr3) were chronically fed in a medium containing different concentrations of FLX-HCl (0.1, 0.5, 1, and 2 mg/mL) in the experimental group. Distilled water, 0.1 mM ethyl methane sulfonate (EMS), and 2% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) were used in negative, positive, and solvent control groups, respectively. The survival percentages were calculated by determining the number of individuals surviving when the larvae completed their development in the experimental and control groups. In all application groups, the wings of 40 individuals with both normal and serrate wing phenotypes were examined under a microscope, and genetic changes were evaluated by counting the mutant clones in the wings. The data obtained show that 1 and 2 mg/mL concentrations of FLX-HCl caused toxic effects in D. melanogaster individuals. Additionally, FLX-HCl showed a negative genotoxic effect at 0.1 mg/mL concentration, insignificant at 0.5 mg/mL concentration, and positive at 1 and 2 mg/mL concentrations in terms of total mutation evaluation and clone induction frequency in D. melanogaster individuals.

    Construction of the Atmosphere in Vahîd Mahtûmî's Shehrengiz Named Lâlezâr (Yenişehr-i Fenâr)
    (FOLKLOR/EDEBIYAT-FOLKLORE/LITERATURE, 2024-05-31) Aytac, Asli
    Shehrengiz can be defined as a poetic genre that presents the beauties of a neighborhood, who are famous in various arts and professions, with the elements of social life and local beauties of that neighborhood, with vivid descriptions and colorful praises. Shehrengiz texts have an important place in terms of not only recording the famous tradesmen, but also shedding light on the socio-cultural structure of the period they belong to, containing information about social and economic life, and reflecting features of daily spoken language. When evaluated together with the poet's style, shehrengiz works should be considered as socio-cultural keys that involve many clues in the context of the structure of the society and the historical texture of the place or places in question. In Turkish literature, the shehrengiz type, which was mostly written in masnavi verse, began giving examples at the beginning of the 16th century and continued until the late 18th century. The text, which is the subject of the study, is the L & aacute;lez & aacute;r (Yeni ehr-i Fen & aacute;r) shehrengiz consisting of 524 couplets, in which Vah & icirc;d Maht & ucirc;m & icirc;, one of the 18th century poets, describes the characteristics of the city of Yeni ehir, which is located in the borders of Greece today. Based on the text written in the form of masnavi , the places where the poet gave place to his description and the atmosphere created from these places were evaluated and the literary features of the expression were emphasized. The aim of the study is to illuminate the image of the city in the period and to reveal the effects of the places whose atmosphere is reflected on the mood of the people and social life by reading the characteristics of the places mentioned from the style of Maht & ucirc;m & icirc;, who successfully reflected the folk language and daily life conditions into poetry in the 18th century.

    A Gastronomical product in Bursa Cuisine; Orhangazi Gedelek Pickles
    (INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF GASTRONOMY AND FOOD SCIENCE, 2024-03) Gulec, Hakan; Yilmaz, Ilkay
    Gastronomic identity of a region, consists of products grown, produced and presented in ways specific to that region, as well as geography, history, ethnic diversity, dietary habits and table manners, dominant flavors, and recipes. The concept of cuisine identity tries to make the cultures self-identified with cuisine, determine use of local material and the effect of various cultures upon foods and beverages. Local products are one of the components of gastronomical identity. Protection of these products and conveying them to the future generations is of importance in terms of sustaining the gastronomical definition. In this context, the aim of the research study is to determine the characteristics of Gedelek pickles, which is specific to Bursa's local cuisine, in the culinary culture and to examine its production phases. The research was carried out with 12 local producers making home-made production in the village of Gedelek of Bursa Orhangazi town by means of face-to-face with semi structured interviews. The study includes the opinions of local producers about the production, gastronomic value, new product and production techniques and sustainability of these local products bearing geographical indications. The most distinctive feature of Gedelek pickles is the use of "Gedelek Pinarbas,i Spring Water" rising in this region. The fact that Gedelek pickles maintain a texture hardness value close to industrial type pickles is related to the hard water feature of the water used. While local producers producing home-made fermented pickles are open to new products and techniques, they refrain from mechanisation and industrial production would taint the features and taste of pickles. Conscious production, training, institutional support, and promotion to be given to local producers without downgrading the local products would help these local pickles with a protected geographical indication convey the future generations.

    Metataxonomic Sequencing to Assess Microbial Safety of Buffalo Yogurts in Amasra Region
    (FOODBORNE PATHOGENS AND DISEASE, 2024) Delikanli-Kiyak, Berrak; Yilmaz, Ilkay
    Interest in the "microbiota" of dairy products and studies on this subject is increasing day by day. In this study, homemade buffalo yogurt was collected from five different local producers in Amasra province, and their microbiota was evaluated by next-generation sequencing. Salmonella enterica was found in all yogurts (1.2-3.17%). Klebsiella pneumoniae was found to be 1.12% and 5.15% in two of the samples. Staphylococcus aureus was found to be 3.17% in only a single sample. The presence of these potentially pathogenic bacteria suggests that more attention should be paid to hygiene rules during homemade production, processing, and distribution of these products being offered for sale in public markets. These yogurt products can potentially carry risks of contamination and should be periodically checked by the relevant authorities.

    Acoustic Performance Study For The Conference Hall of Ministry of Environment and Urbanizaton Service
    (2018) Ilisulu, Sebahat Gul; Demirel, Fusun; Ozcetin, Zuhal
    Solar air collectors (SAC) are usually used for space heating and drying of agricultural products. In this study, acoustic design analyzes and evaluations were carried out in order to improve acoustical conditions of the Ministry of Environment and Urbanization Service Building Conference Hall* for speech function. In the light of the analysis on the room acoustics, recommendations have been developed for the conference hall to provide acoustic comfort conditions in accordance with the regulations in force in our country and international standards. As a result of these suggestions, the acoustic conditions for conference function recommended in national/international legislation have been provided in the Conference Hall of the Ministry of Environment and Urbanization Service Building.
