Learning from reflection: A case of a post-sojourn debriefing workshop with EFL university students
(Selcuk University, 2019) Erdem Mete, Defne
Experiential learning activities have been largely used in education including English language teaching. Study abroad programs offer unique opportunities for learning from experience. Maximising learning from the sojourn experiences should be a major objective of higher education institutions with study abroad programs and designing post-sojourn debriefing workshops is crucial for this purpose. In this qualitative case study, Kolb’s (1984) Experiential Learning Model was used to design a post-sojourn debriefing workshop for three Turkish EFL university students. The workshop was supported by the Cross-cultural Reflective Model (Dressler et al., 2018) designed for reflective writing about sojourn experiences. Critical incidents written by the participants of the study were the main materials to be used in the workshop and reflection was a continuous process throughout the study. Data were collected from reflection reports, reflection forms, written critical incidents, interview transcripts and field notes. Findings of the study revealed that an experiential post-sojourn debriefing workshop guided by a model of reflective writing for EFL university students was especially beneficial for enhancing intercultural learning, facilitating critical reflection and increasing motivation to share sojourn experiences. It was also highlighted that the use of critical incidents played a significant role for reflection in the workshop. © 2019 JLLS and the Authors - Published by JLLS.

(Selcuk University, 2019) Sarıçoban, Arif; Tosuncuoğlu, İrfan; Kırmizı, Özkan
The aim of the present paper is to measure the technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) of preservice EFL teachers learning to teach English as a foreign language (EFL). In order to collect data, a survey, designed and validated by Başer et al. (2016), was used. The survey consists of five sections which are technological knowledge (TK), content knowledge (CK), pedagogical knowledge (PK), pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) and a fifth section that combines technological content knowledge (TCK), technological pedagogical knowledge (TPK), and TPACK items. This survey intends to assess pre-service EFL teachers’ competencies in pedagogies and technologies. The present study is quantitative in nature. The participants of the study are 77 pre-service EFL teachers. The results indicate that pre-service EFL teachers have a satisfactory level of competence in technological pedagogical content knowledge; yet, there are also some areas in which they need development. © 2019 JLLS and the Authors - Published by JLLS.
Treacher collins syndrome with a novel deletion in the tcof1 gene
(ERCIYES UNIV SCH MEDICINE, 2019) Cavdartepe, Busra Eser; Kocak, Nadir; Yasa, Nafiz; Cora, Tulin
Treacher Collins syndrome (TCS) is a rare autosomal dominant congenital disorder characterized by various craniofacial malformations. The estimated incidence is 1 in 50000 live births. Bilaterally symmetric anomalies of the structure are present within the first and second branchial arches. Characteristic facial findings includes bilateral hypoplasia of the malar bones and mandible. This syndrome most commonly results from mutations in the TCOF1 gene. Here we present a five-year-old female patient with syndromic appearance and hearing loss. The patient had various facial dysmorphic features and malformed bilateral pinnae and left ear microtia. According to the clinical features, we suspected TCS and sequence analysis of TCOF1 gene was performed. A heterozygous new mutation c. 1722_1731delCATCCTCCAG in exon 12 of the TCOF1 gene was detected. It has been determined that this mutation is pathogenic according to the in silico prediction tools. The current study further expands the TCOF1 mutation spectrum.
The use of vasoactive-inotropic score in adult patients with septic shock in intensive care
(TURKISH SOC MEDICAL & SURGICAL INTENSIVE CARE MEDICINE, 2019) Kara, Iskender; Sargin, Mehmet; Bayraktar, Yeşim Şerife; Eyiol, Hatice; Duman, Ipek; Celik, Jale Bengi
Objective: Sepsis and septic shock are significant causes of mortality and morbidity. In septic shock, vasopressors and inotropic support are given for the treatment of hypotension. This study was designed to investigate the relationship between the vasoactive-inotropic score (VIS) and the results of sepsis patients in ICU. Methods: The data of 392 patients who were followed up with the diagnosis of septic shock in adult ICU were recorded retrospectively. Vasopressors and inotropic support of the patients during the first 48 hours after the diagnosis of septic shock were recorded. Mean and peak VIS values were calculated according to these values. The patients were divided into groups according to the mean VlS >= 10, peak VIS >= 10 and intensive care results and statistical analysis was performed. Results: The median ages of the patients were 68 (54.25-79) years and 239 (61%) were male. Dopamine 188 (47.9%), noradrenaline 365 (93.1%), adrenaline 53 (13.5%) and dobutamine 15 (3.8%) were used in the patients. The mean VIS was 9 (4-15), while the number of mean VIS >= 10 patients were 192 (49%). Peak VIS values were 11 (5-20), and the number of peak VIS >= 10 patients were 220 (56.1%). The mortality rate of the patients included in the study was 42.1%. The mean VIS score(13 vs 6, p=0.000), mean VIS >= 10 patient ratio (71.5% vs 32.6%, p=0.000), peak VIS score (16 vs 8, p=0.000), and peak VIS >= 10 patient ratio (73.3% vs 43.6%, p=0.000) were higher in non-survivors. The parameters such as mean VIS [OR 1.123, 95% CI 1.027-1.229, p=0.011], mean VIS >= 10 [OR 3.455, 95% CI 1.625-7.345, p=0.001] and peak VIS score [OR 0.917, 95% CI 0.851-0.989, p=0.024] were determined as independent risk factors for mortality. Conclusion: We conclude that vasoactive-inotropic score may be useful in predicting the outcome of septic shock patients in intensive care units.
The effects of intra-articular injection of ibuprofen on knee joint cartilage and synovium in rats
(TURKISH ASSOC ORTHOPAEDICS TRAUMATOLOGY, 2019) Kutahya, Emine Cepni; Oc, Bahar; Ugurluoglu, Ceyhan; Duman, Ipek; Arun, Oguzhan
Objective: The aim of this animal study was to investigate the short and long-term local histomorphologic effects and the utility of intra-articular application of ibuprofen. Methods: Forty-six Wistar Albino rats were used in the study. The rats were randomized into 5 groups of 8 and a sham group of 6. The 40 rats in the study groups were anaesthetised with 60 mg/kg of ketamine, then 0.25 ml ibuprofen (25 mg) was injected to the right knee joint of each rat (ibuprofen group) and 0.25 ml 0.9% saline to the left knee joint as the control group. To the 6 rats in the sham group, only puncture was applied to both knee joints. The rats in each of the 5 study groups were sacrificed on days 1, 2, 7, 14 and 21 respectively. The histomorphologic changes were graded on a 6-point scale regarding inflammation of the synovia, cartilage tissue, and subchondral bone. Inflammation scores were compared using the Mann Whitney U-test and comparisons of the sacrifice day and drug used were evaluated with the Kruskal Wallis test. The p values below 0.05 were considered as significant. Results: Statistically significant difference was found between the ibuprofen injected knees (10/40) and the saline injected (0/40) and sham knees (0/12) in respect of hematoma positivity (p = 0.002). Significantly higher inflammation scores were found in ibuprofen injected knees on the 1st, 2nd, 7th and 14th days compared to controls and sham (p < 0.05). Inflammation scores were similar in ibuprofen injected knees with and without hematoma (p > 0.05). Inflammation of the ibuprofen injected group was most severe on day one and the severity of inflammation reduced gradually throughout the 3 weeks. Conclusion: Our results show that intra-articular injection of ibuprofen can cause intra-articular hematoma. It also leads to transient inflammation of the synovia that is more severe in the early period, which gradually recovers. (C) 2019 Turkish Association of Orthopaedics and Traumatology.

The effect of allergen immunotherapy on serum periostin levels in children with allergic rhinitis
(BILIMSEL TIP YAYINEVI, 2019) Ucaryilmaz, Hulya; Emsen, Ayca; Dikener, Ahmet Hakan; Akdam, Neriman; Unlu, Ali; Artac, Hasibe
Objective: Periostin, an extracellular matrix protein, is related to the eosinophilic airway inflammation. There is no specific marker in allergen immunotherapy to evaluate clinical response. We aimed to investigate the serum periostin levels in the children who receive allergen immunotherapy. Materials and Methods: Sixteen patients between 8-18 years (12.7 +/- 2.8 years) with allergic rhinitis and/or asthma due to grass pollen hypersensitivity and 30 healthy subjects (11.7 +/- 2.6 years) were included. Demographic data, eosinophil counts, skin prick tests and the specific IgE levels of the patients are recorded. Symptom scores, visual analog scales, medication scores were determined and the serum periostin levels were measured in the beginning, 4th and 12th months of the allergen immunotherapy. Results: The symptom scores for rhinitis in the 4th month showed significant improvements in all of the patients (p< 0.05). Nine patients with allergic rhinitis accompanied by asthma, showed significant improvements in 12th month symptom score for asthma (p=0.018). A significant correlation was detected between the initial serum periostin levels and the symptom scores for the eye (r=0.668, p=0.005). No significant difference was found in serum periostin levels between the patient and the control groups. There were no significant differences in serum periostin levels in 4th and 12th months compared to the ones in the beginning. Conclusion: In this study, there were no significant differences in serum periostin levels of children during the allergen immunotherapy. The association of serum periostin levels with symptom scores for the eye needs to be confirmed in more children with allergic rhinoconjunctivitis.
Neostigmine treatment protocols applied in acute colonic pseudo-obstruction disease: A retrospective comparative study
(AVES, 2019) Ilban, Omur; Cicekci, Faruk; Celik, Jale Bengi; Bas, Mehmet Ali; Duman, Ates
Background/Aims: When conservative methods fail, neostigmine is recommended in the pharmacological treatment of acute colonic pseudo-obstruction (ACPO). The objective of this study was to analyze the response of patients to different neostigmine protocols. Materials and Methods: Patients diagnosed with ACPO in the intensive care unit between January 2015 and September 2017 were retrospectively studied. Either of the two neostigmine protocols, the bolus dose (BD) or continuous infusion (CI), was applied to the ACPO patients who were unresponsive to conservative treatments, and the results were analyzed. Results: In 79 of 122 (64%) patients, the resolution of symptoms was observed with conservative treatments. Of 43 patients who did not respond to conservative treatments, 20 were applied neostigmine as BD, and 23 were applied by CI. A total of 55% of patients in the BD group and 60.9% patients in the CI group responded to neostigmine therapy after the first dose. The group-specific protocols were reapplied in patients unresponsive to the first dose. A total of 25% in the BD group and 8.7% in the CI group responded to the second dose treatment. As a result, 80% of patients from the BD group and 69.6% from the CI group responded to neostigmine therapy. Although an overall response rate was higher in the BD group, there was no significant difference between groups (P=0.322). Colonic complications were observed in 2 patients, 1 from each group. There were no major side effects requiring treatment cessation. Conclusion: The safety and effectiveness of both neostigmine protocols applied to ACPO patients were similar. Clinical and radiological responses were obtained without serious side effects with CI.
Nail digital dermoscopy in onychomycosis: a correlation with clinical type, gender, and culture examination
(ERCIYES UNIV SCH MEDICINE, 2019) Islamoglu, Zeynep Gizem Kaya; Demirbas, Abdullah; Unal, Mehmet; Findik, Duygu
Objective: Onychomycosis (OM) is a common disease that covers both tinea unguium and those remaining cases caused by yeasts, mainly of the Candida and various non-dermatophyte molds. Diagnosis is usually confirmed with direct microscopy and fungal culture. Nail dermoscopy is a non-invasive tool to diagnose various nail disorders and also to avoid time-consuming investigations. The aim of the present study was to determine the dermoscoping findings in OM and to correlate this with clinical type, gender, and culture results. Materials and Methods: This was a cross-sectional study of 100 patients diagnosed with OM according to clinical findings and direct microscopic examination. Nail dermoscopy was performed using a FotoFinder Digital Dermoscope, and images were recorded. A part of the samples was cultured in all patients. Results: The most frequent clinical type was distal lateral subungual onychomycosis (80.0%). The culture was negative in 72.0% of the samples. In the positive group, 48% of Trichophyton rubrum was cultured. The most common dermoscopic findings were longitudinal stria, ruin appearance, and longitudinal leukonychia. In culture-negative samples, irregular termination was most commonly seen. Ruin appearance, brown discoloration, hematoma, and transverse leukonychia, such as brushing, were compatible with total dystrophic OM. Conclusion: Determinative dermoscopic findings for OM, clinical types, and fungus forms were identified. These signs can avoid unnecessary mycology in selected cases.
Molecular Structure and TD-DFT Study of the Xylene Isomers
(GAZI UNIV, 2019) Kepceoglu, Abdullah; Gundogdu, Yasemin; Dereli, Omer; Kilic, Hamdi Sukur
In 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.

(AVES, 2019) Ozgenel, Safak Meric; Temel, Tuncer; Teke, Hava Uskudar; Yildiz, Pinar; Korkmaz, Huseyin; Ozakyol, Aysegul
Background/Aims: Celiac disease is an autoimmune, familial disease that results in susceptibility to gluten in cereal and cereal products in genetically susceptible individuals. The aim of the present study was to investigate the presence of HLA-DQ2/DQ8 in patients with celiac disease, their first-degree relatives, and healthy community. Materials and Methods: HLA-DQ2/DQ8 analysis was performed in adult patients with celiac disease >= 18 years old (94 patients), their first-degree relatives (89 people), and healthy group (102 individuals). Anemia, osteoporosis, and diarrhea were interrogated in the celiac patient group and also anti-tissue transglutaminase, anti-endomysium, and anti-gliadin antibodies were recorded. Results: There was a significant relationship between HLA-DQ2/DQ8 presence in all groups, and the distribution of HLA-DQ2/DQ8 in all groups was different (p=0.000). No statistically significant correlation was found between the HLA tissue groups and diarrhea (p=0.087), osteoporosis (p=0.215), anemia (p=1.000), tissue transglutaminase antibodies (p=0.295), anti-gliadin antibodies (p=0.104), and anti -endomysium antibodies (p=0.243) in the celiac patient group. Conclusion: HLA-DQ2/DQ8 can be used to diagnose celiac disease particularly when the tests are useless and to screen first-degree relatives.

(AVES, 2019) Yaşar Bilge, Şule; Solmaz, Dilek; Şenel, Soner; Emmungil, Hakan; Kılıç, Levent; Öner, Sibel Yılmaz; Yıldız, Fatih; Yılmaz, Sedat; Ersözlü Bozkırlı, Duygu; Aydın Tufan, Müge; Yılmaz, Sema; Yazısız, Veli; Pehlivan, Yavuz; Beş, Cemal; Yıldırım Çetin, Gözde; Erten, Şükran; Gönüllü, Emel; Şahin, Fezan; Akar, Servet; Aksu, Kenan; Kalyoncu, Umut; Direskeneli, Haner; Erken, Eren; Kısacık, Bünyamın; Sayarlıoğlu, Mehmet; Çınar, Muhammed; Kaşifoğlu, Timuçin; Sarı, İsmail
Objective: Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is the most common autoinflammatory disease. Most of the identified disease-causing mutations are located on exon 10. As the number of studies about the effect of the exonal location of the mutation and its phenotypic expression is limited, we aimed to investigate whether the exonic location of the Mediterranean fever (MEFV) mutation has an effect on the clinical manifestation in patients with FMF. Methods: Study population was derived from the main FMF registry that included 2246 patients from 15 different rheumatology clinics. We categorized the mutations according to their exon locations and retrieved the clinical and demographic information from the database. Results: Patients having the MEFV mutations on exon 2 or 10 (n: 1526) were divided into three subgroups according to the location of the MEFV mutations: Group 1 (exon 2 mutations), Group 2 (exon 10 mutations), and Group 3 (both exon 2 and exon 10 mutations). Group 2 patients were of a significantly younger age at onset, and erysipel-like erythema, arthritis, amyloidosis, and a family history of FMF were more common in this group. Conclusion: Patients with FMF and exon 10 mutations show more severe clinical symptoms and outcome. Exon 2 mutations tend to have a better outcome.
Economic analysis of beekeeping enterprises in Aegean Region, Turkey
(ANKARA UNIV PRESS, 2019) Cevrimli, Mustafa Bahadir; Sakarya, Engin
The aim of this study was to determine the economic analysis of beekeeping enterprises in Aegean Region of Turkey. The material of the current study was collected through face to face interviews from the total of 73 small, medium and large-scale enterprises determined by simple random sampling in Aegean region of Turkey (Aydin, Denizli, Mugla provinces). A backward regression model was developed to assess the input and output relationships in the enterprises. According to the results, the factors that affect the total profit, namely, marketing costs, sale price, unit cost, equipment and other expenses were found to be statistically significant (p<0.05). In the study, the lowest cost of producing honey was found to be in large-scale enterprises (1.82 US$/kg) and in the province of Aydin (1.64 US$/kg), whereas the highest cost of producing honey was found to be in small-scale enterprises (3.14 US$/kg) and in the province of Denizli (3.79 US$/kg). Net profit was calculated to be 41.16 US$/hive in small-scale, 28.75 US$/hive in medium-scale and 35.45 US$/hive in large-scale enterprises. In conclusion, considering that the major problem of beekeeping enterprises in Aegean Region is the marketing (64.3%) and the, study also suggested that some measures and supports actions should be put into practice including augmentation of the sale opportunities of the honey produced and the activation of structures of cooperatives so that the profitability of enterprises may be increased, and beekeeping activity may be carried out in a sustainable manner.

This study aimed to develop valid and reliable measurement tools aiming to obtain information from the child and family to determine the sexual identity and gender behaviors of children with normal development at 36-72 months. The research was designed in the general screening model of quantitative research methods. The validity and reliability analyses of three different subscales, namely the Sexual Identity Sub-scale of the Selquk Sexual Development Scale (SSDS, 36-72 Months), the child form, the Gender-Related Behavior Sub-Scale, the child form, and the Sexual Identity and Gender-Behavior Sub-Scale were conducted. SPSS 20, LISREL 8.80 and FACTOR software were used to analyze the data. The target population of the study consists of 36-72 months of normal development children living in the central districts of Konya between 2017-2018. As a result of the Exploratory Factor Analysis, the eight-item two-factor structure for the SSDS Sexual Identity Sub-scale child form, the eight-item single-factor structure for the Child Form of the Gender-Behavior Sub-Scale, the eight-item two-factor structure for the family form of the Sexual Identity and Gender-Behavior Scale were obtained. The results of the Confirmatory Factor Analysis of these structures showed the compatibility of the structures to the model. The reliability coefficients of the scales were calculated as.61 for the Sexual Identity Sub-Scale child form,.66 for the Child Behavior Sub-Scale, and.85 for the Sexual Identity and Gender Behavior Sub-Scale family form.
Determination of antibiotic susceptibility, esbl genes and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis profiles of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-containing escherichia coli isolates
(ANKARA UNIV PRESS, 2019) Tutun, Hidayet; Karagoz, Alper; Altintas, Levent; Kocak, Nadir
The purpose of this study was to determine the phenotypic antibiotic susceptibility patterns, extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) genes and genotypic profiles of ESBL-positive Escherichia coli strains isolated from urine samples obtained from outpatients with urinary tract infection in Turkey. A total of 120 E. coli strains during 2017, 2018, and 2019 (40 patients per year) were examined for antibiotic susceptibility patterns by disc diffusion method, for ESBL genes using PCR and sequencing and for molecular typing by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) method. The isolates were evaluated for their sensitivity to 21 different antibiotics. Four different antimicrobial resistance patterns were determined according to antibiotic susceptibility status of the isolates. The beta-lactamase genes detected in the isolates were CTX-M-15 + OXA-1 (n = 14), CTX-M-15 (n = 24), TEM-1 + CTX-M-15 (n = 52), TEM1 + SHV-12 (n = 6), SHV-12 1 (n = 6), TEM-1 + CTX-M-1 (n = 6), TEM-1 + CTX-M-16 (n = 6) and TEM-1 + CTX-M-9 (n = 6). The CTX-M-15 was the most prevalent ESBL enzyme in the isolates. As a result of PFGE analysis performed by XbaI enzyme restriction process, one major PFGE profile and three main groups (Group I-I-III) were observed. While antibiotic resistance profiles of the strains showed four groups (RI-RII-RIII-RIV), PFGE band profiles showed a major group (90% similarity ratio). High ESBL production and decreased susceptibility to broad-spectrum cephalosporins were observed in E. coli strains. In addition, PFGE analysis showed high clonal similarity among E. coli isolates.
A survey of the morphology, anatomy, and palynology of endemic bornmuellera kiyakii and b. glabrescens (brassicaceae) from Turkey
(GAZI UNIV, 2019) Gonen, Burcu; Dural, Huseyin; Yilmaz Citak, Burcu
In the present study, the morphological, anatomical, and palynological properties of 2 Bornmuellera Hausskn. taxa, which are endemic to Turkey, were examined. B. kiyakii Aytac & Aksoy is known from the province of Konya, growing in serpentine areas, and B. glabrescens (Boiss. & Balansa) Cullen & T. R. Dudley is known from the province of Nigde. Through morphological analyses, the characteristics of the taxa were designated and the descriptions were expanded. The morphology of the stem, leaf, trichomes, and capsule are essential to separate the examined taxa. The anatomical analyses showed that the taxa had similar anatomical root, stem, and leaf tissue layers; however, their rows, and mesophyll thickness were different between the taxa. Anatomical traits, such as the presence of an endodermis in B. kiyakii, the pith region in the cross-sections of the stems, linear-shaped leaf in B. glabrescens, and triangular-shaped leaf in B. kiyakii have taxonomic importance. The pollen grains of the studied taxa were tricolpate, isopolar, and radial symmetrical, prolate-spheroidal, and had reticulate ornamentation. The fruit of B. kiyakii were characterized by globose, asymmetrical, and yellow-purplish-pink valves with rugose ornamentation, which clearly differed from that of B. glabrescens, which had ovoid, symmetrical, and light green-yellow valves. The seed traits clearly appeared to have taxonomic significance. The seeds of B. glabrescens were orbicular-shaped, yellowish-brown in colour, with reticulate ornamentation; however, the seeds of B. kiyakii were oblong-elliptic-shaped, and the tile was red-brown in colour.
Türkiye’de kiraz üretiminin yapısal analizi
(2019) Çelik, Yusuf; Sarıaltın, Hatice Kübra
Bu çalışmada, Dünya’da ve Türkiye’de kiraz üretiminin mevcut durumu incelenmiş ve Türkiye’de kiraz sektörünün SWOT analizi yapılmıştır. Araştırmanın temel materyalini ilgili istatistikler ve yapılmış olan bilimsel çalışmalar oluşturmuştur. 2017 yılı FAO verilerine göre Dünya’da yaklaşık 416.445 hektar alanda kiraz üretimi yapılmakta ve 85.401 hektar alan ve 627.132 tonluk üretim ile Türkiye dünyada kiraz üretiminde ilk sırada yer almaktadır. Üretim bakımından ilk sırada olmasına rağmen pazarlama stratejilerinin etkin ve yeterli olmamasından dolayı kiraz ihracatında Türkiye, Şili ve ABD’den sonra üçüncü sırada yer almaktadır. Türkiye’nin ağırlıklı olarak kiraz ihracatı yaptığı ülkeler, Avrupa Birliği ülkeleri (Başta Almanya, Bulgaristan ve Hollanda olmak üzere), Rusya ve Irak’tır. Dünya kiraz ithalatında ilk sırada %21 oranıyla Çin, ikinci sırada ise %19’luk oranı ile Rusya gelmektedir. Türkiye’de ağaç başına kiraz verimi 2017 yılında 29 kg olarak gerçekleşmiştir. Türkiye’de 2018 yılı verilerine göre kiraz üretimi bakımından, Konya ili ilk sırada yer almıştır. Konya ilinde 70.987 da alanda, 68.376 ton kiraz üretimi yapılmış olup, bu miktar toplam kiraz üretiminin %10,87’sini oluşturmaktadır. Üretim bakımından ikinci sırada İzmir ili gelmektedir. Türkiye’de kiraz sektörünün yapılan SWOT analizinde, Türkiye’nin sahip olduğu ekolojik çeşitlilik ve uygunluk avantaj oluştururken, işletmelerin yapısal sorunları ve üretici örgütlenmesinin yetersiz olması dezavantaj oluşturmaktadır. Diğer taraftan Türkiye’nin Avrupa Birliği ve Rusya gibi ithalatı yüksek ülkelere yakın ve iş birliği içinde olması fırsat oluştururken, yaşanan iklim değişikliğine bağlı üretim ve fiyat istikrarsızlığı önemli riskler oluşturmaktadır. İhracat olanaklarını artırabilmek için üretici örgütlenmesi ve üretici örgütlerinin etkinliğini artırmak, kiraz üretim tekniklerinin bilimsel esaslara göre yürütülmesi, uluslararası piyasalarda tat ve aroma bakımından tercih edilen kiraz çeşitlerinin yaygınlaştırılması gerekmektedir.

(2019) Orhan, Nuri; Şeflek, Ali Yavuz; Ozbek, Osman; Çalışır, Sedat
Bu çalışma tipik bir sulama amaçlı derin kuyu modeli üzerinde yürütülmüştür. Derin kuyu donanımlarından filtre uzunluğunun üç farklı durumu için, kuyu su seviyesi düşümü, pompa gürültü seviyesi, pompa çıkış ve giriş basıncı ve pompanın şebekeden çektiği güç arasındaki değişim sonuçları incelenmiştir. Çalışmada hidrolik yük, teçhiz borusu çapı, filtre tipi, çakıl zonu genişliği ve pompa tipi sabit tutulmuştur. Pompa denemeleri 2 m (FU1), 4 m (FU2) ve 6 m (FU3) filtre uzunluklarında yapılmıştır. Deneme sonuçlarında göre; farklı debi değerlerinde FU1 ve FU2 kombinasyonlarının kuyu düşüm seviyeleri arasında farkın olmadığı ancak FU3 kombinasyonunda farkın olduğu belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca uygulanan LSD testi sonucunda da farkın olduğu görülmüştür. FU1 ve FU3 kombinasyonlarının tüm debi değerlerinde elde edilen birim uzunluk başına düşüm azalması ortalama 2.22 cm m-1 olarak belirlenmiştir. Filtre uzunluğu arttıkça filtreye su giriş hızının azaldığı hesaplanmıştır. Genellikle filtre uzunluğu attıkça pompanın gürültü seviyesi azalmıştır. Tüm debi değerlerinde FU1, FU2 ve FU3 kombinasyonlarında ölçülen ortalama gürültü seviyesi sırası ile 75.3-72.2 ve 71.3 dBA olarak belirlenmiştir. Bazı debiler de pompanın şebekeden çektiği güç değeri filtre uzunluğunun artması ile yükselmiştir. Sabit debi değerlerinde filtre uzunluğunun toplam dinamik yükseklik (TDY) üzerine bir etkisi olmamıştır. Sonuç olarak; kuyu filtre uzunluğunun pompaj parametreleri üzerine etki ettiği belirlenmiştir.
The effect of different thawing methods on quality parameters of frozen mussels and shrimp meats
(2019) Ceylan, Zafer; Unal, Kubra
In this study, the effects of different thawing methods on microbial, physical and sensory quality of frozen mussels and shrimp samples were investigated. The thawing process was carried out at the refrigerator temperature (B4: 41ºC), at room temperature (O22: 221ºC), in warm water (I30: 301ºC) and in hot water (S55: 55 1ºC). Total mesophilic bacteria counts in mussel and shrimp meat samples were found with the lowest in B4 (2,74 log KOB / g) and S55 (3,35 log KOB / g) groups, the highest values were found in the I30 group in both samples. In terms of psychrophilic bacteria, the lowest results were determined in the groups thawed by S55 method. According to the color results; the lowest L* value in mussels and shrimp meat was determined in I30 group, the b* value associated with oxidation was found to be highest in mussel meat samples in O22 and in shrimp meat samples in B4 group. The lowest water activity value was found in mussel meat in B4 and in shrimp in O22 groups. According to sensory analysis results; the highest overall acceptability score was determined in the thawed in refrigerator in both samples. Consequently, when all the quality parameters were evaluated, it was determined that thawing in the refrigerator and hot water was the best method.
