Item Evaluating The Multifaceted Impact Of Cephalaria Extract On Dough Quality: Antioxidant, Antimicrobial, And Cytotoxic Properties(INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY, 2024-12) Bagdat, Elif Seyma; Bozkurt, Fatih; Ilikkan, Ozge Kahraman; Sagdic, Osman; Tornuk, FatihCephalaria syriaca, known as cephalaria, is an annual, pilose plant with pink-purple flowers growing wild in wheat fields. Viscoelastic properties of gluten-free doughs can be improved by adding cephalaria. However, this addition results in some undesirable properties in bread such as bitter taste and dark internal colour. This study aimed to reduce these effects by obtaining cephalaria obtained from distilled water and ethanol extracts and to increase the potential use of extracts in bread production. Different proportions of water and ethanol extracts obtained from oil-free cephalaria were added to bread by creating a model with Mixture Design, and the optimum concentration was determined by farinograph trials. The antioxidative, antimicrobial, and cytotoxic effects of extract and the effect of cephalaria on yeast activity were examined. Cephalaria extracts had no measurable antimicrobial effect and no antifungal effect on Rhizopus stolonifer, while an antifungal effect was found against A. niger and P. expansum. The IC50 value was found to be 4.15 mg mL(-1 )for ethanol extract while the water extract had no effect on cells. The addition of extract had no negative effect on the number of yeasts in sourdough fermentation. The study has improved the usage of cephalaria by using water and ethanol extracts in dough.Item A Novel Synbiotic Edible Film Based On Aquafaba, Psyllium Husk Powder, Peg 400, And Lactiplantibacillus Plantarum 299v And Applicability On Kashar Cheese(JOURNAL OF FOOD MEASUREMENT AND CHARACTERIZATION, 2024-12) Ilikkan, Ozge Kahraman; Bagdat, Elif Seyma; Yilmaz, Ilkay; Beyter, Nurten; Yuzay, Isinay EbruIn this study, it was aimed to compare a novel synbiotic edible film based on aquafaba, psyllium husk powder, and PEG 400 with or without Lactiplantibacillus plantarum 299v. Therefore, primarily, optimization of the edible film was carried out by Box-Behnken design in response surface methodology (rsm). The characterization of edible films with or without probiotic bacteria was performed by FTIR, viscosity, pH, total solid content, water and oxygen solubility, film thickness, color L*, a*, b*, transparency, and film tensile strength. It was determined that there was no statistically significant difference in viscosity, pH, lightness L*, water vapor, and oxygen permeability values with the addition of probiotic lactic acid bacteria to the optimized coating film samples. In addition, it was observed that the probiotic bacteria count did not decrease below 108 cfu/g for 60 days of storage. The resulting edible film formulation with (PL) and without (PS) probiotics was used to coat Kashar cheese, while control cheeses (C) were not coated. As a result, it was observed that the microbiological quality of the coated cheeses was as good as control or better than control especially at the end of storage in terms of mold/ yeast and coliforms. Sensory evolution revealed coating films with or without probiotics did not change the texture, flavor, odor, or appearance of cheeses. Physicochemical properties such as pH, % titratable acidity, % dry matter, % fat, and % salt were detected.Item The Effect Of Organizational Culture İn Health Services On Employee Flourishing(WORK-A JOURNAL OF PREVENTION ASSESSMENT & REHABILITATION, 2024-11-15) Cagatay, Huseyin Tolga; Demirel, Yuksel; Ertugrul, Bekir; Tekinyildiz, EsraBACKGROUND: Culture has an important role in maximizing the value of human capital, which is regarded as the main source of organizational effectiveness.

By using the determined natural radioactivity concentrations in the collected plant samples, the number of radiological doses that people could be exposed by consuming these plants was calculated. As a result of the study, Ra-226, Th-232, and (4) K radioactivity concentration ranges of the plant samples were found be 14.69 +/- 1.27-59.08 +/- 3.12 Bq kg(-1), 1.78 +/- 0.04-50.05 +/- 2.76 Bq kg(-1) and 207.24 +/- 34.09-826.13 +/- 25.40 Bq kg(-1), respectively. The highest Ra-226, Th-232, and (4) K activity concentrations were measured in Astragalus densifolius subsp. ayashensis (Kahramankazan), Astragalus kochakii (Kahramankazan) and Rumex patientia (Patience Dock) (Kahramankazan) plants, respectively. The lowest Ra-226, Th-232 and,(4) K activity concentration plants were determined respectively as Rumex patientia (Mamak), Lavandula angustifolia (Kizilcahamam), and Astragalus acikirensis (Polatli). The establishment and routine repetition of environmental radioactivity monitoring programs in each region are important for human and animal health, and the results of this study gain importance for Ankara and its surroundings in terms of environmental health.Item Anaesthetic Management for Orthotopic Liver Transplantation in A Patient with Glycogen Storage Disease Type Iiia(2023) Haka, D.; Cekmen, N.; 0000-0001-7448-8203Glycogen storage disease (GSD) type III is a metabolic disorder caused by a deficiency in amylo-1,6-glucosidase enzyme, which is responsible for the breakdown of the glycogen molecule, resulting in glycogen accumulating in the organs, hypoglycaemia, muscle weakness, liver dysfunction, delayed anaesthetic recovery, excessive surgical bleeding, cardiomyopathy and end-organ dysfunction. This case report presents a child with GSD type IIIa who underwent orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) with her mother as a donor.

Due to the creation of electron-hole pairs and their drift in opposite directions under the influence of an electric field, the value of photocurrent in the reverse bias (I-ph) increases when illumination density is increased. The barrier height (Phi(B0)) tended to decrease due to the increase in photocurrent, while the diode's ideality factor (n) increased with increasing illumination intensity. Also, the Schottky structure's open-circuit voltage (V-oc), short circuit current (I-sc), filling factor (FF), and efficiency (eta) were determined to be 0.358 V, 95.5 mu A, 33%, and 0.028% under 50 mW.cm(-2), respectively. The R-s and R-sh values found using Ohm's law are a vital function of illumination and voltage which decrease with increasing illumination intensity. Additionally, using the forward bias I-V data and accounting for the bias dependent of the effective barrier height (Phi(e)) and ideality factor n(V) for different illumination intensities, the energy density distribution profile of surface states (N-ss) was obtained. According to these results, the organic interlayer consisting of C20H12 is light-sensitive and suitable for optoelectronic devices such as photodetectors and photodiodes.Item Sequential Decision Making for Elevator Control(2023) Tartan, Emre Oner; Ciflikli, Cebrail; 0000-0002-5688-4226; JVD-9650-2023In the last decade Reinforcement Learning (RL) has significantly changed the conventional control paradigm in many fields. RL approach is spreading with many applications such as autonomous driving and industry automation. Markov Decision Process (MDP) forms a mathematical idealized basis for RL if the explicit model is available. Dynamic programming allows to find an optimal policy for sequential decision making in a MDP. In this study we consider the elevator control as a sequential decision making problem, describe it as a MDP with finite state space and solve it using dynamic programming. At each decision making time step we aim to take the optimal action to minimize the total of hall call waiting times in the episodic task. We consider a sample 6-floor building and simulate the proposed method in comparison with the conventional Nearest Car Method (NCM).Item The Effects of Using Artificial Intelligence and Robotics in Logistics Service Production: An Application in 3pls and 4pls(2023) Caglar, Macide Berna; Taskin, Bihter KaragozBackground: The purpose of this study is to investigate how artificial intelligence (AI) and robotic awareness, perceived organizational support, and competitive psychological climate approaches relate to turnover intention. In the literature, studies on robotic awareness and turnover intention have been undertaken in a variety of industries. In this respect, this study aims to address the absence in the literature of research on logistics services providers. This study aims to help businesses understand how to retain employees and foster a more inclusive and supportive workplace.Methods: The study utilizes survey information from 100 senior managers in the operations function of logistics service providers. The outcomes are obtained by modeling structural equations with SmartPLS. Data from the survey were gathered using the snowball sampling technique.Results: The results of the research reveal the effect of artificial intelligence and robotic awareness on competitive psychological and turnover intention.Conclusions: The study aims to explore the role of a competitive psychological climate and organizational support in mediating the relationship between AI and robotics awareness and turnover intention. We identify that awareness of AI and robotics has a considerable, favorable effect on the psychological climate of competition and turnover intention. We also find that the competitive psychological atmosphere has a substantial, favorable effect on turnover intention. In addition, organizational support has been demonstrated to have a substantial, favorable effect on turnover intention. However, it was not possible to identify the mediating role of organizational support and the psychological environment of competition in moderating the association between awareness of AI and robotics and turnover intention. On the basis of the research's findings, suggestions were made.Item Bibliometric Analysis of Articles Published in Cukurova Medical Journal Between 2011 and 2022(2023) Polat, Sema; Tunc, Mahmut; Ozsahin, Esin; Tamam, Lut; Goker, Pinar; 0000-0003-1373-4700Purpose: This study aimed to perform a bibliometric analysis of the abstracts and keywords in articles published in the Cukurova Medical Journal from 2011 to 2022.
