Isolation and Identification of Free-Living Amoebae from Tap Water in Sivas, Turkey
(HINDAWI PUBLISHING CORPORATION, 2013)
The present work focuses on a local survey of free-living amoebae (FLA) that cause opportunistic and nonopportunistic infections in humans. Determining the prevalence of FLA in water sources can shine a light on the need ...
IMPROVING PRESERVICE SCIENCE TEACHERS' SELF-EFFICACY ABOUT THE USE OF ALTERNATIVE ASSESSMENT: IMPLICATION FOR THEORY AND PRACTICE
(SCI METHODICAL CTR-SCI EDUCOLOGICA, 2013)
In this study, a teaching program was designed to improve preservice teachers' self-efficacy about the use of alternative assessment. The teaching program has three stages: workshop, observation, and teaching. Preservice ...
The effect of octreotide, an analog of somatostatin, on bleomycin-induced interstitial pulmonary fibrosis in rats
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2013)
In this study, octreotide (OCT), a synthetic sonnatostatin analog, was tested for its beneficial effects in the prevention of interstitial pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) induced by bleomycin (BLM) in rats by histological examination ...
Effects on caregiver burden of education related to home care in patients undergoing hemodialysis
(WILEY-BLACKWELL, 2013)
Caring for a patient undergoing hemodialysis is highly stressful and can negatively affect a caregiver's physical and psychological well-being. This study was conducted to examine the effect of educational support concerning ...
Anomalous top-gluon couplings in gamma p collision at the CERN-LHC
(EPL ASSOCIATION, EUROPEAN PHYSICAL SOCIETY, 2013)
We have investigated anomalous chromomagnetic and chromoelectric dipole moments of the top quark via top pair production in a gamma p collision at the LHC. We obtain 95% CL bounds on the anomalous couplings with various ...
Effect of an intense laser field on the holes in graded quantum wells
(SPRINGER HEIDELBERG, 2013)
The potential profile and the energy levels of the heavy holes (hh) and light holes (lh) in graded quantum wells under an intense laser field are theoretically calculated within the framework of the effective mass ...
Effect of cooking procedures of kiymali pide, a traditional Turkish fast-food, on destruction of Escherichia coli O157:H7
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2013)
The objective of the present study was to obtain data about cooking time and temperature of kiymali pide in the restaurants and to investigate thermal inactivation of E. coli O157:H7 during experimental kiymali pide making. ...
A Half-Inverse Problem for Impulsive Dirac Operator with Discontinuous Coefficient
(HINDAWI PUBLISHING CORPORATION, 2013)
An inverse problem for Dirac differential operators with discontinuity conditions and discontinuous coefficient is studied. It is shown by Hochstadt and Lieberman's method that if the potential function p(x) in Omega(x) ...
Investigation of Mechanical and Structural Properties of Blend Lignin-PMMA
(HINDAWI PUBLISHING CORPORATION, 2013)
This in vitro study investigated the mechanical and structural characteristics of lignin-added PMMA resin composites at concentrations of 1, 3, and 5% by weight. Four sample groups were formed. For the transverse strength ...
Effects of Sandblasting and Laser Irradiation on Shear Bond Strength of Low-fusing Porcelain to Titanium
(QUINTESSENCE PUBLISHING CO INC, 2013)
Purpose: To investigate the bond strength of low-fusing porcelain to commercially pure titanium (Ti) that was laser irradiated with different levels of energy and sandblasted. Materials and Methods: A total of 30 titanium ...
