    Altın nanoparçacıklar (Au NP ’ler), mükemmel biyouyumluluk, kimyasal stabilite ve teşvik edici optik özellikleri sebebiyle nanotıpdaki araştırma ve uygulamaların odak noktasıdır. Tez çalışmasının amacı, su veya polimer çözeltilerinde hazırlanan, lazerle sentezlenmiş Au NP ’lerin insan hücre dizilerindeki güvenilirlik, yükleme ve biyolojik davranışlarını karşılayacak üretim yapılmasıdır. Bu Au NP ’lerin üretimi, sıvı ortamda darbeli lazer ablasyon tekniği ile yapılmıştır. Lazer ablasyon işlemi, fiber lazer kullanan lazer nanoparçacık sentez sistemi (lazer ablasyon) ile yapılmıştır. Au NP numunelerinin saf deiyonize suda, küçük boyut dağılımına sahip olarak elde edilmesi için, lazer ablasyonu ile üretilen NP ’lere lazer parçalanma aşaması uygulanmıştır. Yüksek çözünürlüklü transmisyon elektron mikroskobu (TEM) ile mikroyapı, NP ’lerin UV / Vis spektrometresi ile optik absorbsiyon spektrumu ve NP ’lerin bir spektrofotometre kullanarak akış spektrumları elde edilmiştir. Elde edilen spektrum sonuçlarının literatür ile uygunluğu değerlendirilmiştirGold nanoparticles (Au NPs) are the focus of research and applications in nanomedicine because of their excellent biocompatibility, chemical stability and stimulating optical properties. The aim of the thesis is to produce the safety, loading and biological behavior of laser synthesized Au NPs prepared in water or polymer solutions in human cell lines. This production has been prepared for pulsed laser ablation technique in Au medium with Au NPs. Laser ablation was performed with laser nanoparticle synthesis system (laser ablation) using fiber laser. In order to obtain Au NP samples in pure deionized water with small size distribution, the laser fragmentation step was applied to the NPs produced by laser ablation. Microstructure were investigated by using high resolution transmission electron microscopy (TEM), optical absorption was examined using UV / Vis spectrometry of NPs and flow spectra of NPs were characterized by a spectrophotometer. The suitability of the obtained spectrum results with the literature was evaluate

    Investigation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Biofilm Formation and Quorum Sensing Genes in Piperacillin/Tazobactam and Ciprofloxacin Sub-minimal Inhibitory Concentrations

    Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a non-fermentative, oxidase-positive, motile gram-negative bacillus widespread in nature. The virulence factors of P.aeruginosa including the ability to grow under minimal growth conditions, the widespread presence in nature, and the ability to form biofilms make P.aeruginosa a highly important bacterium along with its resistance mechanisms against many antibiotics. The ability to form biofilms increases the symptom severity in diseases caused by P.aeruginosa and causes difficulties in the treatment. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of sub-minimal inhibitory concentrations (sub-MIC) of piperacillin/tazobactam (TZP) and ciprofloxacin (CIP) which are used for the treatment of P.aeruginosa infections on biofilm formation and to investigate the relationship between the severity of biofilm formation and Quorum Sensing (QS) genes. The study included 24 P.aeruginosa isolates from the culture collection of Medical Microbiology Laboratory of Gazi University Faculty of Medicine. MIC values of TZP and CIP antibiotics were determined by the microdilution method. The biofilm layers in the antibiotic-free medium and in the sub-MIC (MIC/2, MIC/4 ve MIC/8) concentrations of antibiotics were visualized by using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The QS genes (lasl, lasR, rh/I, and MIR) of the 24 isolates with known biofilm characteristics were identified via the amplification of chromosomal DNA by using PCR method. In the study, it was foundthat both antibiotics reduced biofilm formation in a dose-dependent manner in sub-MIC concentrations compared to the antibiotic-free condition and that MIC/2 was the concentration, which reduced the biofilm formation most. These results were further confirmed by viewing the SEM images. The QS genes lasl, lasR, and Mil were detected in a total of 19 isolates with moderately strong and strong biofilm formation, the rh/R gene was detected in six of the strong biofilm-forming isolates, in four of the moderately strong biofilm-forming isolates, and in three of the weak biofilm-forming isolates, respectively. The investigation of the effects of sub-MIC concentrations of antimicrobials, used for the treatment of P.aeruginosa infections, on the biofilm formation of P.aeruginosa and the investigation and better understanding of the QS systems associated with biofilm production will allow for finding out new treatment approaches and offer different options in combating infections with high morbidity and mortality

    EFFECT OF STRAIGHT AND ANGLED ABUTMENTS ON THE STRAIN ON A ZIRCONIA CROWN AND IMPLANT IN THE MANDIBULAR SECOND MOLAR REGION: A FEA-BASED STUDY

    No full text
    In a literature search no study evaluating implant-supported posterior restorations using zircon crowns with straight and angled abutments was found. In this study, the stress distribution of a zircon-crown restoration that will be prepared by using an angular and straight abutment in a mandibular second-molar deficiency, under functional forces, stress over zircon crown and environmental tissues of implant will be evaluated using the finite-element analysis (FEA) method. The FEA result showed that the use of straight implants contributes to the lowest stresses. The selection of a straight and angular abutment is very important for the balance of distributed loading
