Calculation of the infrared frequency and the damping constant (full width at half maximum) for metal organic frameworks

The rho(NH2) infrared (IR) frequencies and the corresponding full width at half maximum (FWHM) values for (CH3)(2)(NH2FeMII)-M-III(HCOO)(6) (DMFeM, M = Ni, Zn, Cu, Fe, and Mg) are analyzed at various temperatures by using the experimental data from the literature. For the analysis of the IR frequencies of the rho(NH2) mode which is associated with the structural phase transitions in those metal structures, the temperature dependence of the mode frequency is assumed as an order parameter and the IR frequencies are calculated by using the molecular field theory. Also, the temperature dependence of the IR frequencies and of the damping constant as calculated from the models of pseudospin (dynamic disorder of dimethylammonium (DMA(+)) cations)-phonon coupling (PS) and of the energy fluctuation (EF), is fitted to the observed data for the wavenumber and FWHM of the rho(NH2) IR mode of the niccolites studied here. We find that the observed behavior of the IR frequencies and the FWHM of this mode can be described adequately by the models studied for the crystalline structures of interest. This method of calculating the frequencies (IR and Raman) and FWHM of modes which are responsible for the phase transitions can also be applied to some other metal organic frameworks

Knowledge and skill needs of home caregivers and their care burden perceptions

Research problem/aim: Family members are increasingly taking more responsibility for patient care. We were conducted this study to determine knowledge and skill needs of in-home caregivers and their care burden perceptions. Methods: The study was designed as descriptive study. The universe of this study included 350 patients who were registered in a Public Hospital Home Care Services Department by year of 2016 and the research sample consisted of 161 patients and patient relatives. Data was collected to use Patient and Caregiver Forms, Care Burden Scale, and Barthel Index. We were calculated the data with percentage, average, standard deviation, independent samples t test, Mann Whitney U, Kruskal Wallis tests. Finding: Total Care Burden Scale point is 41.32 ± 13.20, caregiver’s age, marital status, educational status, economic status, to get help about care and receiving care duration do not affect CBS points, female caregivers have less CBS points than male caregivers and this difference is statistically significant (p < 0.05), the least skill level part of caregivers are care and prevention of decubitus, patient handling with the proper method, pay attention to their own body mechanisms, wound care, vital measurements, genital care, stress management and constipation. Conclusion: Caregivers have in a low level of training about care and need knowledge and skills according to patient needs. Care burden of men is higher than women

Classification of poetry mecmuas (91a-141b) registered with no T743 at İstanbul University Rare Works Library according to MESTAP

Mecmualar, farklı şair ya da yazarların metinlerinin/metin parçalarının bir araya getirildiği eserlerdir. Mecmualarda çoğunlukla farklı zamanlarda yaşamış yazar ya da şairlere ait metinlere yer verilir. Tek bir yazar ya da şairin eserlerini ihtiva eden mecmua sayısı çok azdır. Mecmualar, içerisindeki metinlere göre gruplara ayrılmaktadır. Bu gruplardan en fazla ön plana çıkanı şiir mecmualarıdır. Edebiyatımız şiir mecmuaları bakımından oldukça zengindir. Şiir mecmuaları üzerine yapılmış çok sayıda çalışma bulunmaktadır ancak mevcut mecmua sayısı, yapılan çalışmaların çok üstündedir. Bugüne kadar tasnif ve tanıtımı yapılmamış bir şiir mecmuasını konu alan bu çalışma, bu alandaki boşluğa istinaden yapılmıştır. Çalışmaya konu olan şiir mecmuası, İstanbul Üniversitesi Nadir Eserler Kütüphanesi T743 numarada kayıtlıdır. İçinde birden çok şaire ait şiirin bulunduğu mecmua, toplam 186 varaktan oluşmaktadır. Çalışmada mecmuanın geneli hakkında bilgi verilip nüsha tavsifi yapılmıştır. Ardından mecmuanın 91a-141b varakları arasındaki şiirler çeviri yazıya aktarılıp incelenmiştir. Çalışma "Mecmuaların Sistematik Tasnifi Projesi"ne (MESTAP) göre hazırlanmıştır. Çalışmanın amacı; bir şiir mecmuasını bilim âlemine tanıtmak, bugüne kadar hiç duyulmamış şairlere ulaşmak, hakkında sadece tezkirelerde bilgi bulunan şairler hakkında daha fazla bilgi edinmek ve bilim dünyasına yeni bilgiler kazandırmaktır. İncelenen şiir mecmuasının ilk defa bilim âlemine tanıtılacak olması, çalışmanın özgünlüğünü ve önemini artırmaktadır. Anahtar Kelimeler: Klasik Türk edebiyatı, mecmua, şiir mecmuası, şiir, MESTAPJournals are works in which texts/parts of texts of different poets or authors are brought together. In journals, mostly texts belonging to writers or poets who lived at different times takes place. The number of journals belonging to a single author or poet is very few. Journals are divided into groups according to the texts in them. Poetry magazines are the most prominent among these groups. Our literature is very rich in terms of poetry magazines. There are many studies on poetry magazines, but the number of existing magazines is far above the studies done. This study, which is about a poetry magazine that has not been classified and promoted until today, has been made with reference to the gap in this field. The poetry journal, which is the subject of the study, is registered in Istanbul University Rare Works Library under number T743. The magazine, in which there are poems belonging to more than one poet, consists of a total of 186 leaves. In this study, information about the general of the journal was given and the manuscript of this journal was described. Then, the poems between the pages 91a-141b of the journal were transcribed and analyzed. The study has been prepared according to the "Systematic Classification of Poetry Magazines Project" (MESTAP). The aim of the study is to introduce a poetry magazine that has not been studied to the world of science, to reach poets that have never been heard before, to reach more information about poets whose information is only in biographies, and to gain new information to the world of science. The fact that the examined poetry journal will be introduced to the scientific world for the first time increases the originality and importance of the study. Keywords: Classical Turkish literature, journal, poetry journal, poem, MESTA

Inorganic phosphate has a crucial effect on Cry3Aa delta-endotoxin production

Three-dimensional finite element analysis used to compare methods of fixation after sagittal split ramus osteotomy: setback surgery-posterior loading

We used three-dimensional finite element analysis to compare the biomechanical stability of bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomies fixed by tag screws with linear and triangular configuration, and double or single six-hole miniplates with monocortical screws after set-back operation. The three-dimensional finite element model contained 122,717 elements and 25,048 nodes. Posterior occlusal toads were simulated on the distal segments. MSC Marc software was used to calculate the stress fields on both the segments and the fixing appliances. We conclude that either triangular tag screw configuration or double miniplates led to better stability and tower mechanical stresses near the osteotomy than the linear lag screws or single oblique miniplates.

Comparison of different fixation methods following sagittal split ramus osteotomies using three-dimensional finite elements analysis - Part 1: advancement surgery posterior loading

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the mechanical behavior of different fixation methods used in bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy (BSSRO). Part I comprises of the results of the analysis for mandibular advancement, four different fixation configurations of six hole fragmentation mini plates with monocortical screws and lag screws and posterior loading conditions in the molar and premolar region. The finite element analysis method (FEA) appears suitable for simulating complex mechanical stress situations in the maxillofacial region. The mechanical behavior of selected lag screws with linear or triangular configuration and double parallel or single oblique six hole mini plates with monocortical screws were compared by FEA after 5 mm BSSRO advancement procedure

Cry3Aa11: A new Cry3Aa delta-endotoxin from a local isolate of Bacillus thuringiensis

A local isolate of Bacillus thuringiensis Mm2 had insecticidal activity against the larvae of Melolontha melolontha, Agelastica alni, Leptinotarsa decemlineata and Amphimallon solstitiale and produced a 65 kDa protein. SDS-PAGE profile of B. thuringiensis Mm2 was compared with those of 29 different Cry3Aa producers which verified Cry3Aa biosynthesis by the isolate. The cry3Aa gene of Mm2 was cloned, sequenced and the deduced amino acid sequence was compared with the cry3Aa sequences of ten different quaternary ranks. Its identity to these sequences ranged between 97.4% and 99.2%. The gene was next cloned into E. coli-Bacillus shuttle vector pNW33N and expressed at a low level in B. subtilis 168
