    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, Fatih
    Cephalaria 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.

    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 Ebru
    In 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.

    BACKGROUND: Culture has an important role in maximizing the value of human capital, which is regarded as the main source of organizational effectiveness. OBJECTIVE: The research was conducted to determine the effect of organizational culture perceptions of healthcare professionals working in a university hospital on employee flourishing. METHODS: It is a descriptive study conducted with 299 healthcare professionals working in a university hospital. "Structured Personal Information Form", "Denison Organizational Culture Survey" and "New Flourishing Index" to collect the data. In the analysis descriptive statistical methods such as percentage, frequency, arithmetic mean and standard deviation as well as Pearson correlation, linear regression and multiple linear regression analyses were performed to determine the relationship between variables. RESULTS: According to the results of linear regression analysis, it was determined that organizational culture and flourishing were related (F: 88.229; p < 0.05). The organizational culture alone explained 22.6% of flourishing. As a result of multiple regression analysis, it was determined that the relationship between organizational culture sub-dimensions and flourishing was significant (F = 25.975; p < 0.05). The sub-dimensions of organizational culture explained 25.1% of the flourishing. CONCLUSIONS: As a result of the study, it is observed that the perception of organizational culture of healthcare professionals has an impact on flourishing, and therefore the favorable development of organizational culture will contribute positively to employee flourishing. In present conditions, it has become a necessity for health organizations to provide the circumstances that will make all investments that will contribute positively to the flourishing of their employees a part of the organizational culture.

    Sequential Decision Making for Elevator Control
    (2023) Tartan, Emre Oner; Ciflikli, Cebrail; 0000-0002-5688-4226; JVD-9650-2023
    In 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).

    (2023) Caglar, Macide Berna; Taskin, Bihter Karagoz
    Background: 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.

    (2021) Duran, Secil; Celik, Isa; Ertugrul, Bekir; Ok, Serife; Albayrak, Sevil; 33794061
    Aim This study aims to investigate the factors affecting nurses' professional commitment during the COVID-19 pandemic. Background Commitment to a profession requires doing the best for that profession. In the case of the nursing profession, professional commitment gains greater importance in times of crisis, like the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods This cross-sectional study was conducted with 389 nurses in the Turkish state hospital. Institutional permissions, ethical approval and written consents from the participants were obtained before carrying out the study. Results The participants' mean Perceived Organizational Obstruction Scale score was 20.07 +/- 8.06 (min = 5.0, max = 35.0), and their mean Nursing Professional Commitment Scale score was 71.20 +/- 11.94 (min = 30.0, max = 103.0). Socio-demographic variables and perception of organisational obstruction predicted 36.7% of the variance in the professional commitment (p < .001). Conclusion A road map based on the study results was developed for hospitals and nurse managers to maintain and increase nurses' professional commitment. Implications for Nursing Management The results of this study may help institutions and nurse managers understand the factors affecting professional commitment during the pandemic as a whole, as well as determine primary strategies based on the importance of these factors.

    (2020) Tuncer, Ahmet Turgut; Bilgen, Mehmet
    A stand-alone, custom-made biomedical system was introduced for long-term monitoring of sleep and detection of snoring events. Commercially available electronic components were assembled for recording audio, pulse, and respiration signals. Its software was implemented for off-line processing of the acquired signals in C++ and MATLAB environments. The linear and nonlinear features of the signals were extracted and characterized using spectral energy distribution, entropy, and largest Lyapunov exponent (LLE). The performance of the system was evaluated with real physiological data gathered from 14 chronic snorers. Analysis of the cases indicated that the system identified the snoring events with an accuracy of 88.22%, sensitivity of 94.91%, and positive predictive value of 90.95%. This high level of validation confirmed the reliability and utility of the system in detecting snoring.
