Here, we present a protocol combining magnet-ically activated cell sorting (MACS) and surface biotinylation of the target cell subset from human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). We describe the steps for isolating target cells and their in-column surface biotinylation, fol-lowed by isolation and mass spectrometry analysis of biotinylated proteins. The protocol enables in-column surface biotinylation of specific cell subsets with minimal membrane disruption.Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkiye (TUBITAK) [119S457]This work was supported by The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkiye (TUBITAK) (Project Number: 119S457) to S.O.

    This report is essentially a report of the measurements in the carousel of the laboratory for Fluid Mechanics of the Delft University of Technology made accessible for a slightly wider public. A comprehensive documentation about the considered investigation, both concerning the theoretical background and concerning the elaboration of the experimental evidence can be found in: Booij, R., (1994), "Measurements of the flow field in a rotating annular flume ", Communications on Hydraulic and Geotechnical Engineering, report no. 94-2, Laboratory for Fluid Mechanics, Faculty of Civil Engineering, Delft University of Technology. To make the report more widely accessible a short explanation and description of the contents of every subdivision in English is added. The original text in Dutch by M.M.L. Melis is retained because an integral translation would be too time consuming. The added pages with English text are numbered El, etc.Hydraulic EngineeringCivil Engineering and Geoscience

    La Tomba ipogeica di Badde de Janas (Putifigari, Sardegna): una nuovadomus de janascon riproduzione del tetto

    No full text
    This paper presents a new Sardinian neolithic rock-cut tomb of domus de janas type that shows, in the main room, the reproduction of a double-pitched roof, as imitation of a dwelling. The reproduction is realistic in style, completely painted of red, and can be related to the nearest Painted Tomb of S’Incantu in the same Putifigari area. It is discussed on the meaning of such decorations inside rock-cut tombs that reproduce rooms of rectangular plan. However, no sure traces of rectangular huts were found in neolithic dwellings of Sardinia, except the discussed case of Serra Linta (Sedilo). Author thinks that it’s more probable that the reproductions of rectangular houses with double-pitched roof, insidedomus de janas, rather represent a cult building, like the famous “Red Temple” one that it was built in the top surface of Monte d’Accoddi altar, near Sassari

    A new look at Sokolluzade Hasan Paşa’s illustrated universal history

    No full text
    This article revisits a universal history written in the late sixteenth century for the governor of Baghdad Sokolluzade Hasan Paşa (d. 1602) in light of a new- ly-discovered source that provides the missing concluding section of this universal history. This concluding section (Bibliothèque nationale de France Supplément turc 1322), which was announced in the index but not completed in the extant presen- tation copies (Topkapı Palace Museum Library H. 1369 and H. 1230), reinforces the idea of Sokolluzade Hasan Paşa’s imperial claims at the same time as it highlights the Baghdadi tenor of the work, as it was written in Baghdad by an author who be- longed to the governor’s household. However, the Paris manuscript presents no mere conclusion or continuation of a universal history. It is rather akin to a compilation (mecmuʿa) that juxtaposes sections from this universal history with sections from Za- kariya al-Qazwini’s (d. 1283) ʿAjāʾib al-Makhlūqāt wa Gharāʾib al-Mawjūdāt, thus recontextualizing this late-sixteenth-century universal history.Publisher versio

With the job security system, ensuring the continuation of employment process, securing the job of the employee and the protection of the rights of the employee by avoiding arbitrary termination of employment process by the employer have been aimed. Labor Law no. 4857 which includes employment relations system, removed the withdrawal liberty within the context of job security, demanded just and valid causes which are regulated by law for withdrawal process. Moreover, the burden of proving for existence of mentioned causes has been imposed on the employer and in case of a withdrawal which is against to his regulations, the right of reemployment claim by the employee has been guaranteed. The practice of primary employer and sub-employer in Labor Law is constantly increasing today and it affects the employee-employer relationship in different ways. In terms of job security system which has a significant part in Labor Law, the roles of primary employer and sub-employer, responsibilities, their positions in reemployment lawsuits, the reflections of this relationship to employees cause problems in practice. In our thesis, the relationship between primary employer and sub-employer in terms of job security system and the reemployment lawsuits as a consequence of this system has been discussed, especially the terms of sub-employer employee's benefiting from the job security provisions, the party role of the primary employer and sub-employer in the reemployment lawsuits, how the primary employer and sub-employer will be responsible for the consequences of the reemployment lawsuits and the effects of the employer changes in regard to job security terms in the primary employer - sub-employer relationship have been tried to be examined considering the perspectives of the doctrine and decisions of the Court of Cassation under the Labor Law

    Prehistoric metallurgy in the western Mediterranean. New archaeological and archaeometric data from Sardinia

    No full text
    In the specialised literature regarding the ancient metallurgy of the western Mediterranean, archaeological and archaeometric research of the earlier phases of Sardinian metallurgy is not very common, partly due to the relative scarcity of available data. The main objective of this work is to examine the most ancient aspects, from the Final Neolithic to the Final Eneolithic. This research integrates published data and new archaeological and archaeometric contributions, collected from two of the most important Prenuragic contexts: Su Coddu/Canelles and Monte d’Accoddi. The artefacts relative to the former of the two are datable to the Early Eneolithic and were recovered during excavations directed by the author between 2001 and 2007. The artefacts of Monte d’Accoddi were discovered during excavations undertaken by Ercole Contu (1952-1959); these belong to a longer chronological arc and are related to diverse phases of the site. The second objective is to examine the metallurgic production of prehistoric Sardinia in the framework of the Western Mediterranean. This research is taken on through two approaches: the reorganisation and analyses of published material, based on the revision of outdated chronologies in the light of recent radiometric datings, and through drawing comparisons with production from extra-insular areas, with particular attention given to peninsular Italy

    Aspetti identitari tra passato imperiale e presente repubblicano: una lettura dell’impatto sociale del Varlik Vergisi

    No full text
    Despite the Ottoman heritage of a multi-ethnic, multi-faith and multilingual society, the Republic was inspired by a process of cultural homogenisation that produced a stigmatization of minority identities. The Varlık Vergisi, the Wealth Tax, strongly affected the conditions of the minorities marking one of the most important implementations of this process of social engineering. Faik Ökte, author of the work Varlık Vergisi Faciası, “The tragedy of the wealth tax”, which still represents a relevant source for those studying the Turkish wartime period, defines the capital tax as “one of the most shameful episodes in the financial history of Turkey”. The present article focuses on the social impact of Varlık Vergisi through the critical reading of the memories collected in Varlık Vergisi Faciası

    Aim This paper reports the results of a fifteen-years study carried out at the Dentoalveolar trauma study Centre of the University of Cagliari Dental Department, on treatment modes utilised for the recovery of periodontal injuries in primary dentition .Materials and Methods The data referred to dental injuries were collected and recovered according to Andreasen's dental trauma Classification: clinical Signs and symptoms, patient's age and gender, lesion site.The Authors focused their attention on intrusive luxation in pimary dentition, which are a very frequent trauma in children between 1-4 years of age. Results This careful conservative approach allowed the repositioning of about 60% of the 85 intruded teeth examined.It substantially reduced the number and severity of undesiderable sequelae, both local( enamel-hypoplasia) and occlusal(tooth retention), so that only in 25 % of the followed-up cases damages of the successor tooth were found in the permanent dentition.Conclusion The author conclude their study emphasizing that all those involved in paediatric Dentistry must be familiar with periodontal injuries and trained in their treatment, particularly as regard intrusive luxation in primary dentition
