Turkey has the largest boron reserves in the world with a rate of approximately 72. The most common commercial boron reserves in Turkey are colemanite, tincal, and ulexite. Boric acid, which is the most commonly used boron compound in Turkey, is obtained from the dissolution of colemanite with sulfuric acid. In the present study, an aqueous medium saturated with sulfur dioxide instead of sulfuric acid was used in order to obtain boric acid. Colemanite ore was flash calcined at various temperatures and optimum dissolution conditions of the ore obtained in water saturated with SO2 were examined ...More
Graphene oxide (GO) was covalently attached to glassy carbon (GC) electrode (GC–O–GO) for fabricating nanosensors to determine trace Pb2+ and Cd2+ using differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry (DPASV). Surface characterization of the nanofilm-covered electrode was performed via electrochemical cyclic voltammetry (CV), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) techniques. Surface pKa of the GO covalent attached GC (GC–O–GO) was calculated via CV. Under optimal conditions, a linear response was found for Pb2+ and Cd2 ...More

An electrochemical biosensor was developed for the determination of Escherichia coli (E. coli) in water. For this purpose, silver-gold core-shell (Ag@Au) bioconjugates and anti-E. coli modified PS-microwells were designed in a sandwich-type format in order to obtain higher sensitivity and selectivity. Ag@Au bimetallic nanoparticles were synthesized by co-reduction method. The core-shell formation was analyzed by using UV-Vis spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy. Biotin labeled anti-E. coli antibodies were coupled with Ag@Au nanoparticles to form bioconjugates. The electrochemical ...More
The gradual Cl replacement reactions of NN (1–3) or NO spirocyclic monoferrocenyl cyclotriphosphazenes (4 and 5) with the potassium salt of 4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde (potassium vanillinate) resulted in the mono (1a–5a), geminal (gem-1b–5b), non-geminal (cis-5b and trans -1b–4b), tri (1c, 3c–5c) and tetra-vanillinato-substituted phosphazenes (1d–5d). All the phosphazene derivatives have stereogenic P-center(s), except tetra-substituted ones. The vanillinatophosphazenes have reversible voltammograms with one-electron anodic and cathodic peaks which are attributed to ferrocenyl redox probe. ...More
The influence of redox mediators (tetrathiafulvalene (TTF), tetrathiafulvalene-tetracyanoquinodimethane complex (TTF-TCNQ), phenazine methosulfate (PMS), 5,6-diamino-1,10-phenonthroline (5,6-DAP), potassium ferrocyanide (K4[Fe(CN)6]), methylene blue (MB) and toluidine blue (TB)) on the response of amperometric glucose biosensor was investigated in this research. Graphite rod electrode (GRE) modified by adsorbed mediator and glucose oxidase (GOx) cross-linked with glutaraldehyde was served as working electrode. The highest amperometric signals were observed by using TTF and TTF-TCNQ as mediator ...More
A fuel cell is an electrochemical cell that converts a source fuel into an electrical current. It generates electricity inside a cell through reactions between a fuel and an oxidant, triggered in the presence of an electrolyte. Fuel cells have been attracting more and more attention in recent decades due to high-energy demands, fossil fuel depletions, and environmental pollution throughout world. In this study, different sized metallic and bimetallic nanoparticles (AuNPs, Fe@AuNPs, Ag@AuNPs) were synthesized on graphene oxide sheets and their electrocatalytic activities for methanol oxidation ...More
A new electrode was prepared by the electrooxidation of orto-, meta-, and para-substituted nitro phenols on glassy carbon electrode. Electrochemical modification of the electrodes was carried out in 0.01 M HCl using cyclic voltammetry (CV). Then nitro groups in the covalently grafted nitro phenol derivatives on GC electrode were reduced to amine groups in 0.01 M HCl.
