Ab initio study of electronic properties of armchair graphene nanoribbons passivated with heavy metal elements
(Elsevier, 2019)In this study, electronic properties of graphene nanoribbons with armchair edges (AGNRs) have been investigated with Density Functional Theory (DFT). Effects of heavy metal (HM) elements, including Zinc (Zn), Cadmium (Cd) ... -
Chromium(VI) biosorption and bioaccumulation by Live and acid-modified biomass of a novel morganella morganii isolate
(Taylor and Francis, 2014)Conventional methods of chromium removal are often insufficient for the remediation of chromium-contaminated natural environments, necessitating the development of alternative strategies. In this paper, we report the ... -
Differences in the accumulation and distribution profile of heavy metals and metalloid between male and female crayfish (Astacus leptodactylus)
(2013)Concentrations of selected heavy metals and a metalloid were measured by ICP-MS in crayfish (Astacus leptodactylus) collected from Lake Hirfanli, Turkey. Aluminum (Al), chromium (52Cr, 53Cr), copper ( 63Cu, 65Cu), manganese ... -
Efficient removal of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and heavy metals from water by electrospun nanofibrous polycyclodextrin membranes
(American Chemical Society, 2019)Here, a highly efficient membrane based on electrospun polycyclodextrin (poly-CD) nanofibers was prepared and exploited for the scavenging of various polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and heavy metals from water. The ... -
Encapsulation of living bacteria in electrospun cyclodextrin ultrathin fibers for bioremediation of heavy metals and reactive dye from wastewater
(Elsevier B.V., 2018)Cyclodextrins (CD) are cyclic oligosaccharides produced from the enzymatic degradation of starch as a white powder form; on the other hand, they can be transformed into ultrathin electrospun fiber form by electrospinning ... -
Induction of triacylglycerol production in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii: comparative analysis of different element regimes
(Elsevier, 2014)In this study, impacts of different element absence (nitrogen, sulfur, phosphorus and magnesium) and supplementation (nitrogen and zinc) on element uptake and triacylglycerol production was followed in wild type Chlamydomonas ... -
Multifunctional ZnO nanorod-reduced graphene oxide hybrids nanocomposites for effective water remediation: effective sunlight driven degradation of organic dyes and rapid heavy metal adsorption
(Elsevier, 2017-10)We demonstrate the multi-functionality engineering on nanocomposite by combining one dimensional (1D) ZnO nanorod (NR) and two dimensional (2D) reduced graphene oxide (rGO) for efficient water remediation. Nano-engineered ... -
Synthetic biology approach for point-of-care device applications of biosensors
(Bilkent University, 2021-09)Synthetic biology has broadened the scope of detection tool alternatives, among which whole-cell biosensors and cell-free programmable riboregulators are straightforward, inexpensive to develop and easily implementable to ...
