Biodecolourization of Yellow Dye Using Chlorella Vulgaris and Sphaerocystics Schroeteri
Authors: Raymond Ezenweani Sunday , Omo Kadiri Medina 
Published: September 2019

The application of biodecolourization of textile effluents is a cost effective, environmental friendly and appropriate alternative measure in the treatment of textile effluents. In this study, two microalgae namely; Chlorella vulgaris and Sphaerocystis schroeteri were used. Yellow coloured dye was used for this study and dye solution were prepared in different concentrations of 1mg/l, 5mg/l, 10mg/l and 20mg/l. Significant decolourization was recorded in a 14 day experiment carried out by reading the absorbance of the dye solution inoculated with microalgae. Maximum decolourization by both algae was obtained at 10mg/l. In Chlorella vulgaris, maximum decolourization was 43.12% (10mg/l) while in Sphaerocystis schroeteri, maximum decolourization was 45.03% (10mg/l). The order of highest percentage decolourization for Chlorella vulgaris was 10mg/l, 20mg/l, 5mg/l, 1mg/l, while in Sphaerocystis schroeteri, the order was 10mg/l, 5mg/l, 20mg/l, 1mg/l. During the study, maximum dye decolourization, irrespective of the concentration and algae was obtained on the final day. In Chlorella vulgaris, the minimum and maximum decolourizations respectively, were 19.42% and 43.12%, but in Sphaerocystis schroeteri, the minimum and maximum decolourization respectively, were 24.27% and 45.03%. However, decolourization was significantly dependent on dye concentration. Comparatively, there was no significant difference between the percentage decolourization by the two microalgae.

Despite intense campaigns to minimize cigarette smoking owing to the socio-economic risks associated with it, cigarette smoking worldwide has continued to rise. This is a major concern to both public health authorities and medical practioners. This paper examines the Kenyan status on cigarette smoking through measurement of various parameters including mass media campaigns, taxation, level of education, nature of employment, and government legislation. Descriptive research design was employed because of its robust capability to give an in depth analysis of state of affairs as it exists in relation to cigarette smoking patterns in three Kenyan counties (Nakuru, Kisii and Migori). The study involved respondents above 18 years of age and was carried out between March and April 2018. Chi-square statistics was used to assess the association between various variables. It is clear from this study that most cigarette smokers had acquired high school education and above; representing 70% of the respondents. At 95% confidence limit, the p-value = 0.39 and confidence interval, CI = －1.965－4.156. Therefore, cigarette smoking is dependent on the level of education. The odd ratio (OR) of 3.10 indicates a strong association between smoking and the level of education. This study also revealed that majority of the respondents smoked between 6 and 10 cigarettes per day (36%). Besides, 50% of the target population admitted to being aware of the health hazards caused by cigarette smoking despite their continued smoking habits. This survey has demonstrated that most cigarette smokers are not only well educated but are aware of the dangers of cigarette smoking. Moreover, most respondents are addicted to cigarette smoking despite taxes imposed on tobacco products including cigarettes. This characteristic behaviour may be attributed to high unemployment rates in Kenya which this study has established as one of the major reasons for cigarette smoking.

Teachers are required not only to impart knowledge in various subjects, they have also to develop the whole personality of the child-body, mind and spirit. The most important equipment of a teacher is his back ground of education and training. A teacher must represent a running stream and not a stagnant pool. The teaching community constitutes a very large segment of employees in Manipur. Both from the point of view of their number and their dispersal all over the state, they distributed a significant service under the state. According to National Policy on Educaion (1992), the living and working conditions of teachers includes pay and allowances, career advancement, retirement and medical benefits, housing facilities, provision of study leave special provisions for women teachers, service conditions, postings and transfers, Teacher’s Welfare teachers’ participation and recruitments. The main objective is to study the working conditions of teachers f elementary schools with respect to management. Out of 600 teachers, 268 teachers were from 38 Elementary Government school, 122 teachers from 26 Elementary Aided schools and 210 teachers from 32 Elementary Private schools. It was found that 47.62% of private schools have pucca building while that of Government and Aided schools are 35.82% and 20.48% respectively. Lack of the minimum essential facilities in elementary schools exist in all three types of school in which Government schools are much lacking behind the other counter parts. School inspection on regular basis is found to be lacking in Government (48.88%) and Aided schools (49.18%). Private school teachers show highest in Heavy work-load(61.90%) and miscillenious work(20.95%). service conditions of Government teachers are in better position as compared to Aided and Private school teachers. The majority of Private school teachers reported that Salaries are paid in time as compared to other counter parts. service conditions of Government teachers are in better position as compared to Aided and Private school teachers. Parents-Teachers Association (PTA) are found to be highest in Government schools (67.21%) and lowest in Private schools (53.33%). It was found 73.50% of Government, 72.89% of Aided and 43.33% of Private school teachers do not have computer knowledge.
Deniz Eskisi’nde şair beninin nesneye dönüşmesi
Authors: YILMAZ ÇEBİN Burcu 
Published: September 2019

İlhan Berk şiirinde nesneye bağlılık ve şairin
kendi benini nesneye indirgeme çabası şiir eleştirmenleri, incelemeciler
tarafından ele alınan konulardan biridir. İlhan Berk’in yaklaşık on yıl süren
İkinci Yeni evresinden sonra 1982’de yayımladığı Deniz Eskisi, şair beninin nesneye dönüşmesi bağlamında tipik
örnekler içermesi ve konuyla ilgili müstakil bir çalışma yapılmaması bakımından
dikkat çekici bulunmuştur. Bu eser ayrıca İlhan Berk’in nev’i şahsına münhasır
yazma biçimini, şiir tekniğini ve dil özelliklerini gösteren dokuya sahip
olmasıyla bütünlüklü olarak şairin sanat anlayışını yorumlamaya aracı olur.
Çalışmanın konusu, İlhan Berk’in poetikası bağlamında kendi benini transpose
etme biçimidir. Anlam ve biçim bir bütün olarak ele alınıp elde edilen veriler
eklektik yöntemle ortaya koyulmaya çalışılacaktır. Giriş bölümünde, ben(lik)
kavramına dair açıklamalardan sonra Deniz
Eskisi’nin ve şairdeki nesne duyarlığının altyapısındaki dinamiklere değinilecektir.
İnceleme bölümünde ise yüzey yapıdaki tematik çeşitliliğin ve şairin kendi
benini aracı figürlerle karakterize etmesinin altında yatan sebeplerin derin
yapıyla ilintisi araştırılacaktır. Çalışmada İlhan Berk’in bir ülke olarak
gördüğü çocukluğunun, çocukluk/gençlik travmalarının, belirgin karakteristik
özelliklerinden biri olan çocuksu duyarlığının hem kendini hem de bütün
nesneleriyle beraber etrafındaki dünyayı anlamlandırmadaki fonksiyonu tespit
edilecektir.&nbsp; Çalışmada, araştırmacıların
İlhan Berk’in düzyazılarında, otobiyografik eserlerinde estetik kaygılarla
gerçeği saptırdığı ya da kimsenin kendini mutlak ölçüde nesne yerine
koyamayacağı şeklindeki görüşleri de göz ardı edilmeyerek şiirlere belirli
estetik mesafeden yaklaşılacaktır.&nbsp;
Esâsî’nin Kaside-i Bürde Tercümesi
Authors: ALBAYRAK SAK Vesile 
Published: September 2019

Milattan önce V. yüzyıla kadar uzanan, Arap
edebiyatının en parlak devrini oluşturan Cahiliye devri şiiri kaside, Arap
şiirinin bilinen ilk ve en köklü nazım şeklidir. Kaside, Muallakat adı verilen
ilk örneklerinden başlayarak edebiyatımıza intikal edinceye kadar birçok
tecrübe geçirmiştir. Kaside-i Bürde ve Kaside-i Bür'eler
ise Hz. Peygamber’i anlatan ve
toplumda ma‛kes
bulan eserlerin başında gelmektedir. Ka‛b b. Züheyr’in şiirine Hz. Peygamber’in
hediye ettiği “hırkaya” istinaden Kaside-i Bürde,
Busîrî’nin Hz.
Peygamber’i rüyada görme sevinci ile derdinden kurtulması, “iyileşme”sine istinaden
de Kaside-i Bür’e olarak anılsa da bu kasideler literatürde
Kaside-i Bürde olarak tanınmaktadır. “Bedîiyyât” isminde yeni bir tür
oluşturacak şekilde edebiyatı etkileyen Busîrî’nin bu eserinin çoğu Arapça
olmak üzere edebiyatımızda birçok tercüme, şerh ve tahmisleri bulunmaktadır.
Üzerinde çalıştığımız Esâsî’nin eseri de bu tercümelerden biridir. Hayatı,
eserleri hakkında tezkire ve biyoğrafik kaynaklarda ismine rastlayamadığımız
şair hakkında bilgiler yok denecek kadar azdır. “XVIII. Asır divan şairi,
medrese mensubu” gibi birkaç kaynakta verilen bilgiler de tahminden öte
geçmemektedir. Hakkında pek çok soru aydınlatılamasa da Esâsî isminin mahlası
olması kuvvetle muhtemel olan şairin iyi yetiştirilmiş Arapça ve Farsçayı bu
dillerden çeviri yapabilecek kadar iyi bilen bir âlim olduğunu söyleyebiliriz.
Esâsî de bu manzum Kaside-i Bürde tercümesinde tıpkı diğer şairler gibi eserin
aslındaki manayı muhafazaya çalışmış, Hz. Peygamber’e olan sevgisini bu eseriyle ortaya koyarak
dinî-tasavvufi edebiyatımızın zenginleşmesinde rol oynamıştır. Çalışmamız şuara
tezkirelerinde ismi geçmeyen Esâsî hakkında az da olsa bilgi vermeyi ve onun
Hafız Hüseyin b.Ali’nin Busîrî’nin Kaside-i Bürde’si ve ona yazılan tahmis ve
tercümeleri topladığı kitabındaki Kaside-i BürdeTercümesini ilim âlemine
sunmayı amaçlamaktadır.

lntroduction: acute conditions such as cholecystitis may be treated with minimally invasive techniques with good re­ sults in terms ofmorbidity and mortality. Objective: to analyze the outcome oflaparoscopic cholecystectomy for acute cholecystitis performed at Hospital de San José, Bogotá DC, between January 2010 and January 2011. Materials and Metlwds: series ofcases who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Variables such as, clinical, Iab and complemen­ tary exams, time period between onset ofsymptoms and surgery, operative time, conversion rates and complication rates were reviewed. Results: of 267 patients, 173 (64.8%) were females, median age was 43 years (IQR: 33-56). At admission 130 (48%) cases were classified as moderate and 2 (0.9%) as severe cholecystitis. In 142 (53.1%) cases in­ traoperative findings were interpreted as the acute phase of acute cholecystitis. The histology/pathology correlation revealed an equal number for acute and chronic cholecystitis (126; 48%) and only chronic cholecystitis. 221 (82.7%) patients underwent surgery in the first three days. Conversion was necessary in 25 (9.3%) cases and there was only one death (0.3%) in the early postoperative period. Conclusions: acute cholecystitis and chronic biliary pain are the most frequent causes of emergency cholecystectomy and the pathological finding described as chronic phase corres­ ponded to chronic biliary pain episodes. When performed early, this surgical procedure is associated with reduced morbidity and mortality.

Published: September 2019

Acil ambulans sisteminin ve sevk zincirinin uygunsuz olarak kullanılması günümüz modern sağlık sisteminin sorunlarından biridir. Halkın bu hizmeti kullanım oranı kişilerin sosyoekonomik şartlarına, sağlık hizmetlerine ulaşım süresine, yaşına ve geçirdiği kazanın veya hastalığının derecesine göre değişebilir. Çalışmamızda; üniversitemiz acil servisine 112 acil ambulans hizmetleri aracılığı ile başvuran hastaların ve hasta yakınlarının sosyokültürel, sosyoekonomik ve eğitim durumlarının incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Acil servisimize 112 ambulansı ile başvuran 500 hasta prospektif olarak çalışmaya dahil edildi. Hastalar, hasta yakınları ve 112 ekipleri ile görüşülerek hastaların verileri toplandı. Cinsiyet, yaş, eğitim durumu, gelir durumu, önceki ambulans kullanımları, sağlık güvencesi, çalışma durumu, şikayetleri ve tanısı gibi bilgileri toplanarak istatistiksel analizi yapıldı. Çalışmamızda ambulans kullanımının erkeklerde daha fazla olduğu ve 65 yaş üstü grupta fazla olduğu saptanmıştır. Gelir düzeyi artışının uygunsuz ambulans kullanımını azalttığı görülmüştür. Daha önceden ambulans kullanımı olmayan hasta grubunun daha fazla oranda olduğu görülmüştür. Yine bu grupta uygunsuz kullanım oranı daha yüksek oranda saptanmıştır. 112 aramalarında en yüksek oranın hasta yakınları tarafından aranma olduğu ve en düşük oranın ise hastanın kendisi tarafından aranması olduğu görülmüştür. Sonuç olarak; uygun ambulans kullanımı için hastaların bilinçlendirilmesi ve hastaların acil servis başvurularında kullanabilecekleri alternatif ulaşım sistemleri gerekmektedir.

In this study, we prepared hydroxyapatite (HAP) samples using hydrothermal method. We investigated the effect of reaction conditions such as phosphate excess applying 1.49 and 1.67 (as stoichiometric) Ca/P ratio, pH (9/ 10/ 11/ 12) and time (4/ 8/ 12/ 24 h). Sample characterization was carried out by XRD and SEM. The results showed, all samples had HAP structure, however, lower Ca/P ratio, larger reaction time and setting the pH to 10 increased the crystallinity. Then, we synthetized Sr-doped HAP samples, varying the Sr concentration using 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 % Sr/ (Ca+Sr). The Sr content was revealed by EDX. Sr-incorporation did not change the obtained crystalline HAP phase but the unit cell parameters increased. We calculated lattice constants and found that a, b changed from 9.4310 Å to 9.4700 Å, c from 6.8819 Å to 6.9227 Å and the unit cell volume from 530.0951 Å3 to 537.6556 Å3 due to the larger ionic radius of Sr compared to Ca. The pure and doped samples had uniform, mostly needle-like morphology with 100-300 nm length and 25-100 nm. In vitro cytotoxicity tests revealed evident antibacterial activity in the case of doped samples compared to pure HAP against E. coli.
