Öğe Effect of femtosecond laser beam angle and formed shape on surface roughness and shear bond strength between zirconia and resin cement(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2018) Yucel, Munir Tolga; Kilic, Ismail; Kilic, Hamdi Sukur; Gundogdu, Yasemin; Okutan, YenerAchieving adhesion between resin cement and zirconia requires pretreatment of the surface. This in vitro study aimed to evaluate the effect of femtosecond laser beam angle and the shape of the formed surfaces, on the roughness and shear bond strength (SBS) of resin cement to zirconia ceramic. Seventy Y-TZP ceramic specimens were divided into seven groups (n=10). A femtosecond laser irradiation was performed on the ceramic surface of three shapes (spiral (SP), square (SQ) and circular (CI) and at two angles (30 and 90 degrees) to give SP-30, SQ-30 and CI-30 and SP-90, SQ-90 and CI-90, respectively. After treatment, the surface roughness of all specimens was evaluated using a profilometer. One specimen from each group was analysed using a scanning electron microscope. The bonded specimens were thermocycled 5000 times and then an SBS test was performed. Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney U tests were used to analyse surface roughness and SBS values. The control group had statistically lower surface roughness (R-a) values than the treated groups (p<0.05). SP-30 and SQ-30 laser treated specimens showed higher R-a values than the other specimens. Statistically significant SBS values (p=0.000) were observed between the groups. All laser treated samples showed greater SBS compared to the control group. SP-30, SQ-30 and SQ-90 groups showed the highest SBS values. Within the limitations of this experimental study, the highest mean values for R-a and SBS were achieved with SP and SQ surfaces using a 30 degrees angle laser beam.Öğe Femtosecond laser induced photodynamic therapy on 5-ALA treated SKMEL-30 cells: An efficient theranostic strategy to combat melanoma(ELSEVIER FRANCE-EDITIONS SCIENTIFIQUES MEDICALES ELSEVIER, 2014) Kars, Meltem Demirel; Kara, Reyhan; Gundogdu, Yasemin; Kepceoglu, Abdullah; Kilic, Hamdi SukurPurpose: Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a type of photo-chemotherapy that is based on the application of photosensitizer and irradiation of the region by laser sources. Photosensitizer and light interaction will develop reactive oxygen radicals ( O-1(2)) in the cells and elimination of cells by apoptosis or necrosis. Methods: Metastatic skin cancer cells SKMEL-30 were treated by 5-ALA in dark and then they were irradiated by 90-femtosecond (fs) laser with different pulse powers for different durations. The effects of 5-ALA mediated photodynamic therapy on the cells were determined by XTT proliferation kit and by flow cytometry measurements of Annexin V, 7-AAD and mitochondrial membrane potential alterations. Fluorescent accumulation of protoporphyrin IX was investigated by fluorometry and confocal laser microscope. Results: The viability tests for SKMEL-30 cells treated with different 5-ALA doses and femtosecond laser power and durations demonstrated that 635 nm, 45 mW pulse energy at 90 fs laser pulse applications for 60 sec to 1 mM 5-ALA exposed cells decreased the cell proliferation by 30%. Flow cytometric measurements exhibit that PDT caused 63% of mitochondria membrane potential alteration, 30% of cell death in the population by apoptosis and 39% of cells by necrosis. There was 1 mM 5-ALA exposure that also exhibited about 32% accumulation of fluorescence in the cells. Conclusion: The pretreatment of the cells with the precursor 5-ALA lets the imaging due to increased protoporphyrin IX fluorescence. This treatment method may be proposed as an effective theranostic strategy for melanoma because of its rapid and effective anticancer consequences. (C) 2014 Elsevier Masson SAS.

Principle Component Analysis (PCA) was used to identify the isomers which cannot be distinguished using conventional statistical methods for interpretation of their mass spectra. Experiments have been carried out using a linear TOF-MS coupled to a femtosecond laser system as an energy source for the ionisation processes. We have performed experiments and collected data which has been analysed and interpreted using PCA as a multivariate analysis of these spectra. This demonstrates the strength of the method to get an insight for distinguishing the isomers which cannot be identified using conventional mass analysis obtained through dissociative ionisation processes on these molecules. The PCA results dependending on the laser pulse energy and the background pressure in the spectrometers have been presented in this work.Öğe Molecular Structure and TD-DFT Study of the Xylene Isomers(GAZI UNIV, 2019) Kepceoglu, Abdullah; Gundogdu, Yasemin; Dereli, Omer; Kilic, Hamdi SukurIn this work, we have investigated the xylene isomers in concepts of vertical and adiabatic ionization energy parameters and molecular orbital (HOMO-1, HOMO/SOMO, LUMO, LUMO+1) energies of the neutrals and singly charged cation radicals. As a first step of the calculations, conformational analysis has been performed for all isomers using the semi-empirical method with PM3 core type Hamiltonian. Geometry optimization and frequency calculations were performed by using Density Functional Theory (DFT) with Becke, three-parameter, Lee-Yang-Parr (B3LYP) exchange-correlation functional and 6-311++G(d,p) basis sets. UV-Vis electronic spectra of the neutral xylene isomers were calculated by using the TD-DFT method with cam-B3LYP functional and 6-311++G(2d,2p) basis set.
