Solubility and decomposition of organic compounds in subcritical water
In this article, studies on organic solubility and stability in subcritical water reported during the past 25 years have been reviewed. Data on the solubility and decomposition of organic compounds in subcritical water, a green solvent, are needed in environmental remediation, chemistry, chemical engineering, medicine, polymer, food, agriculture, and many other fields. For solubility studies, the experimental systems used to measure solubility, mathematical equations derived and applied for the modeling of the experimentally determined solubility data, and the correlation between the predicated and experimental data have been summarized and discussed. This paper also reviewed organic decomposition under subcritical water conditions. In general, the solubility of organics is significantly enhanced with increasing water temperature. Likewise, the percentage of organic decomposition also increases with higher temperature
Whole exome sequencing of ALMS1 gene identified a novel pathogenic homozygous mutation (c.3132_3133delAC/p.Gln1045ValfsTer2) in a turkish family
Backgroud: Alstrom syndrome (AS) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by pathogenic mutation in ALMS1 (ALMS1 centrosome and basal body associated protein) gene. Case Presentation: A 13.5-year-old male patient, who was born from consanguineous parents of Turkish descent, applied due to the complaint of obesity and non palpable testes. He had optic atrophy and hearing loss. His weight and body mass index were over 97th percentile. The fasting blood glucose level of the patient was 111 mg/dl and the patient had high level of insulin. Because AS was considered, genetic analysis of the ALMS1 gene was performed and a homozygous pathogenic (Class-II) mutation c.3132_3133delAC/ p.Gln1045ValfsTer2 was detected in the exon 8 region of the ALMS1 gene. His mother was heterozygous carrier of the same mutation. Conclusion: A novel c.3132_3133delAC mutation in ALMS1 gene cause clinical findings of AS such as obesity, reduced visual acuity, hearing loss and other systems manifestations
The adsorption performance of magnetic gelatin nanofiber for Orange G removal
In this work, the usability of magnetic gelatin nanofiber (MGNF) for anionic dye removal was investigated in the aqueous solution. For this aim, the MGNF was prepared using the electrospinning technique with the addition of Fe3O4 nanopowders. After the characterization of MGNF with Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, swelling test, scanning electron microscope, and energy-dispersive X-ray analysis, the adsorption performance of MGNF against the dye molecule, Orange G, was examined by changing the pH of the media, the dye concentration, and the ionic strength. The experimental results showed that the maximum adsorbed amount of Orange G was found as 15.6 mg/g at pH 3 value and the Orange G adsorption behavior was endothermic, physical, and suited to the Langmuir adsorption isotherm model. The adsorption kinetic of Orange G was evaluated with the pseudo-first-order, the pseudo-second-order, and the Elovich kinetic models and the pseudo-second-order model results fitted the experimental findings as compared to the other models. The affordable magnetic adsorbent was capable of maintaining its stability after five consecutive adsorption, desorption, and regeneration cycles without significant loss of adsorption capacity
Simple parametrization of (n,d) cross sections using Flerov and Talyzin's formula
This article aims at providing new cross section data from empirical formulas for the (n,d) reactions of which
experimental measurements at 14–15 MeV energy are not available or limited. If the experimental data for a
nuclear reaction at a given energy are scarce, theoretical calculations and also developing empirical formulas
have a critical importance. Here, we propose a new empirical formula of (n,d) reactions for analysis of the
relationship between the experimental data and the parameters of empirical formula. The present formula was
obtained by using the non-elastic Flerov and Talyzin expression to calculate (n,d) cross sections at 14–15 MeV.
Due to the good overall agreement with the measured cross sections, our empirical formula with polynomial
fitting model including asymmetry parameter can be useful in planning new experiments of (n,d) reactions for
energies around 14 MeV
Carbodicarbenes and striking redox transitions of their conjugate acids: influence of NHC versus CAAC as donor substituents
Herein, a new type of carbodicarbene (CDC) comprising two different classes of carbenes is reported; NHC and CAAC as donor substituents and compare the molecular structure and coordination to Au(I)Cl to those of NHC-only and CAAC-only analogues. The conjugate acids of these three CDCs exhibit notable redox properties. Their reactions with [NO][SbF6] were investigated. The reduction of the conjugate acid of CAAC-only based CDC with KC8 results in the formation of hydrogen abstracted/eliminated products, which proceed through a neutral radical intermediate, detected by EPR spectroscopy. In contrast, the reduction of conjugate acids of NHC-only and NHC/CAAC based CDCs led to intermolecular reductive (reversible) carbon–carbon sigma bond formation. The resulting relatively elongated carbon–carbon sigma bonds were found to be readily oxidized. They were, thus, demonstrated to be potent reducing agents, underlining their potential utility as organic electron donors and n-dopants in organic semiconductor molecules

Analysis of Consumer Behavior towards Electric Vehicles: Intentions, Concerns, and Policies
Despite the acceptance of electric vehicles (EVs) by consumers in developed countries, consumers' intentions towards these smart devices (SD) and the steps that can be taken to expand in this market continue to be investigated in developing countries such as Turkey. In this study, policies and incentives for the purchase of Electric Vehicles in different countries were examined, consumer concerns before the adoption of SDs were evaluated, and then consumer intentions in adopting EVs with models such as reasoned action theory, planned behavior theory, and technology acceptance model were evaluated with bibliometric analysis through conducted studies. Data from 63 publications accessed from Scopus, Web of Science, and DergiPark databases were used in the field mapping process. The results provide insights into increasing the market share of electric vehicles, which are critical in reducing the carbon footprint, by recommending the issues that need to be highlighted to the industry and researchers
Oghuz elements in the Divan of the Yusuf Emîrî
X. yüzyılda Orta Asya’daki Türk coğrafyasında yaşanan siyasi ve sosyal gelişmeler doğal olarak Türk dilini de etkilemeye başlamış ve XIII. yüzyıla kadar tek olan yazı dilinde bölünmeler başlamıştır. Batıya doğru bir göç çizgisi takip eden Türk boyları farklı bölgelere dağılarak yeni yurtlar edinmişlerdir. Ortak yazı dilinin kullanıldığı kültür çevresinden uzaklaşan boyların ortaya çıkan yazı dili ihtiyaçlarının dil dışı etmenlerle birleşmesi Türk dilinin farklı kollara bölünmesine zemin hazırlamıştır. Türk dilinin yeni kollarının ortaya çıkmasında Harezm bölgesinin önemli bir yeri vardır. XI.-XII. yüzyıllarda Harezm bölgesine başta Oğuzlar olmak üzere gelen Kıpçaklar ve Kanglılar gibi birçok Türk boyu sayesinde bölgedeki demografik üstünlük Türklerin lehine değişince, bölge Türkleşmeye başlamıştır. Bu gelişmelere paralel olarak bölgede ortaya çıkan ve farklı lehçelerden özellikler taşıyan Harezm Türkçesi Karahanlı Türkçesiyle Çağatay Türkçesi arasında köprü görevi üstlenmiştir. XV. yüzyılın sonlarında Asya’da Timur’un siyasi birliği sağlamasıyla birlikte Çağatay Türkçesi, Doğu Türklüğünün ortak dili durumuna gelirken çoğunluğu Oğuzlardan oluşan Anadolu sahasındaki Türk toplulukları da Osmanlı Türkçesini kullanmaya başlamışlardır. Her iki sahada eser veren şair ve yazarlar arasında etkileşimler olmuş, bu etkileşim dönem metinlerine ses, şekil ve söz varlığı düzeyinde yansımıştır. Klasik öncesi Çağatay Türkçesi döneminde yazılan eserlerde Oğuzca unsurlarla sıkça karşılaşılmaktadır. Bu dönemin önemli isimlerinden Yusuf Emîrî de şiirlerinde Oğuzca özelliklere yer veren şairlerdendir. Bu çalışmada Yusuf Emîrî’nin Kâzım Köktekin tarafından hazırlanan divanı Oğuzca özellikler açısından ele alınmış ve divanda Oğuzcaya yönelik görülen etkilenmenin boyutu ortaya konmuştur. Divanda tespit edilen Oğuzca ses, şekil ve söz varlığına ait unsurlar karşılaştırmalı olarak verilmiştir.In the X. century the political and social developments in the Turkish geography in Central Asia naturally began to affect the Turkish language, and in the written language, which was the only one until the XIII. century, divisions began. The Turkish tribes, who followed a migration line to the west, dispersed to different regions and acquired new homelands. The combination of the emerging written language needs of the tribes, which moved away from the cultural environment in which the common written language is used, with non-linguistic factors paved the way for the division of the Turkish language into different branches. The Harezm region has an important place in the emergence of new branches of the Turkish language. In XI.-XII. centuries thanks to the Turkish tribes such as Kipchak, Kanglı, and especially the Oghuz, who came to the Harezm region the demographic superiority in the region changed in favor of the Turks and the region started to become Turkic in this process. In parallel with these developments, Harezm Turkish, which emerged in the region, acted as a bridge between Karakhanid Turkish and Chagatai Turkish. At the end of the XV. century, with Timur's political unity in Asia, Chagatai Turkish became the common language of the Eastern Turks, while the Turks in the Anatolian area, mostly Oghuz, started to use Ottoman Turkish. There were interactions between poets and writers who worked in both fields, and this interaction was reflected in the texts of the period at the level of sound, form and vocabulary. Oghuz elements are frequently encountered in the works written in the pre-classical Chagatai Turkish period. Yusuf Emîrî, one of the important names of the pre-classical Chagatai Turkish period, is one of the poets who include some language features of Oghuz in his poems. In this study, the divan of Yusuf Emîrî prepared by Kâzım Köktekin, was handled in terms of Oghuz features and the extent of the influence on Oghuz in the divan was revealed. The elements of Oghuz phonetic, morphological and lexicology identified in the Divan are given comparatively

The mediating effects of metacognition and creative thinking on the relationship between teachers' autonomy support and teachers' self-efficacy
A bulk of research has shown strong relationships between metacognition, creative thinking, autonomy support, and self-efficacy among teachers. However, we could not find research with a large sample of teachers exploring the mediating effects of creative thinking and metacognition on the relationship between autonomy support and self-efficacy. A need for a novel structural equation model (Covariance-based) underlying psychological rationality of said relationships was deemed actual. To that end, firstly the effects of teachers' autonomy support (opportunity and decision-making) on teachers' creative thinking, metacognition, and self-efficacy were tested. Then, the mediating effects of metacognition and creative thinking on the relationship between teachers' autonomy support and teachers' self-efficacy were explored. A simple random-sampling method was utilized to gather 787 teachers' data. The results revealed that decision-making and autonomy opportunity predicted creative thinking, metacognition, and self-efficacy positively and meaningfully. Subsequently, creative thinking as well as metacognition had mediating effects on the effects of autonomy opportunity and decision-making on self-efficacy. In closing, for boosting teachers' skills in autonomy support and self-efficacy, attention should be given to fostering their creative thinking as well as metacognition. The study provides implications and suggestions for research on school psychology and improvement
