In this experimental study, low viscosity (<5 mm2.s−1) ternary micro-emulsification fuels contain 50% petro-diesel, 30% waste frying oil and 20% n-butanol or iso-propanol. To observe the effects of ternary fuels on the characteristics of a turbocharged, common rail direct injection diesel engine, the engine tests were performed at the fixed engine speed of 2000 rpm and five different engine loads (BMEP: 3.3–10.0 bar). The results show that brake specific fuel consumption increased about 18% while thermal ...

Bipolar disorder (BPD) is a major psychiatric disorder with an unclear pathophysiology. Peripheral blood samples are easily drawn, making them are good candidates for diagnosing diseases. MicroRNAs are small non-coding RNA transcripts that regulate gene expression by binding to the 3′- UTR of mRNAs and directing their degradation. The aim of this study was to use blood plasma to investigate microRNA dysregulations in bipolar manic and euthymic patients. Blood samples were collected from 58 patients ...

Glycerol is a major byproduct of biodiesel production and it is used in many areas of application such as solketal production. Solketal is an alternative fuel for gasoline engines. Solketal addition into gasoline provides better fuel characteristics and especially an increase in octane number. In this study, detailed fuel properties of solketal-gasoline fuels were characterized according to fuel standards specified in EN 228. Pure gasoline and the blend containing 9% solketal were used as test fuels. ...

Objective The synaptosomal-associated protein of 25 kDa (SNAP-25) gene is a presynaptic plasma membrane protein and an integral component of the vesicle docking and fusion machinery mediating secretion of neurotransmitters. Previously, several studies reported association between SNAP-25 and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). We investigated whether these SNAP-25 polymorphisms (MnlI T/G and DdelI T/C) were also associated with ADHD in the Turkish population. Methods Our study comprised ...

Abstract Biogenic amines are low molecular weight organic compounds that occur in fermented foods and are produced mainly through the microbial decarboxylation of amino acids. Decarboxylation of several amino acids can form some biogenic amines in wines such as histamine, tyramine, putrescine, and phenylethylamine. Biogenic amines can cause direct or indirect toxicity when their concentrations are high in food. The enological importance of the biogenic amines in wines is due to their possible toxicological ...

Several groups attempted to find an association between a serine‐to‐glycine polymorphism of the DRD3 gene (Ser9Gly) and schizophrenia; however, the results were inconsistent. In this study, we aimed to investigate the relationship ...
