Öğe Histidine-epoxy-activated sepharose beads embedded poly (2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) cryogels for pseudobiospecific adsorption of human immunoglobulin G(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2017) Corman, Mehmet Emin; Armutcu, Canan; Bereli, Nilay; Elkak, AssemThe use of highly purified immunoglobulin became among the most powerful adopted strategies in therapeutic trials nowadays. Their role as immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory agents has widened their scope of use. A novel continuous supermacroporous monolithic cryogels embedded with histidine-epoxy-activated-sepharose beads were synthetized as a new monolithic adsorbents for the separation of immunoglobulin G from human serum. The histidine-epoxy-activated-sepharose beads were embedded into the 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) cryogels present in frozen aqueous solution inside a plastic syringe. The microstructure morphology of the cryogels was characterized by swelling measurement and scanning electron microscopy. The adsorption of human IgG on the histidine-epoxy-activated-sepharose beads pHEMA cryogels appeared to follow the Langmuir-Freundlich adsorption isotherm model. The maximum IgG adsorption was observed at 4 degrees C and pH 7.4 and was found to be 26.95mg/g of cryogel which is close to that obtained experimentally (24.49mg/g). The cryogels were used for several adsorption-desorption cycles without any negligible decrease in their adsorption capacity.Öğe Molecularly imprinted cryogel cartridges for the specific filtration and rapid separation of interferon alpha(Royal Soc Chemistry, 2015) Corman, Mehmet Emin; Armutcu, Canan; Ozkara, Serpil; Uzun, Lokman; Denizli, AdilIn this study, we synthesised specific filtration cartridges with selective recognition sites for target molecules and used them to separate interferon alpha-2b from aqueous solutions. We combined molecular imprinting technology with cryogel to achieve specific and rapid filtration of interferon alpha-2b through the macroporous structure of a cryogel network. Recombinant interferon alpha-2b-imprinted poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate-N-methacryloyl-L-tryptophan) P(HEMATrp)/alpha-2bIFN cryogels were synthesised via free-radical bulk polymerisation under partially frozen conditions. The interferon alpha-2b filtration conditions were subsequently optimised with respect to factors such as pH, initial concentration, temperature, centrifugation speed, salt concentration and type and the amount of precomplex incorporated. Selectivity experiments were conducted in respect to isoelectric point as well as size of the competitor proteins under both uncompetitive and competitive conditions. The relative selectivity coefficients of the specific filtration cartridge in respect to isoelectronic points for interferon/ IgG, interferon/HSA and interferon/insulin pairs were 3.72, 7.10 and 10.68 times greater than the coefficient of a non-imprinted [P(HEMATrp)] filtration cartridge, respectively. Similarly, the relative selectivity coefficients of the specific filtration cartridge in respect to competitor size for interferon/ lysozyme, interferon/myoglobin and interferon/carbonic anhydrase pairs were calculated as 7.58, 10.40 and 11.68 under uncompetitive conditions whereas those values under competitive conditions were calculated as 1.08, 1.05 and 1.34, respectively. The results indicated that specific filtration cartridges developed could repeatedly adsorb interferon alpha-2b with a short separation time without any significant decrease in the adsorption capacity even if competitive conditions were conducted.Öğe Poly-L-lysine modified cryogels for efficient bilirubin removal from human plasma(Elsevier Science Bv, 2018) Corman, Mehmet EminIn this study, poly-L-lysine (PLL) immobilized PHEMA cryogel was designed for the specific bilirubin removal from human plasma. The surface of PHEMA cryogels is surrounded by PLL chains to enhance specific binding of bilirubin molecules via specific complementary electrostatic interactions. The functionalization of the PHEMA cryogel was carried out by direct coupling of PLL to pre-activated OH-group of the HEMA alcohol units via carbodiimide activation. Prior to removal of bilirubin from human plasma, the optimization parameters including, initial bilirubin concentration, flow rate, temperature, ionic strength, and adsorption rates on adsorption of PLL-PHEMA cryogel were investigated from the aqueous medium. According to the elemental analyses results, the incorporation of PLL was 690.0 mu mol/g cryogel. The cryogel has highly interconnected supermacroporous structure sized between 20 and 100 mu m with a positive surface charge value. The maximum bilirubin adsorption capacity was found as 59.9 mg/g of the dry weight of PLL-PHEMA cryogel. Reusability study explored that PLL-PHEMA could be used with a negligible loss in the bilirubin adsorption capacity after successive ten adsorption-desorption cycles using the same adsorbent. The results of the study demonstrated that the PLL-PHEMA cryogel exhibited high specificity that can be used as an efficient column for removing the bilirubin from the human plasma.

So in this work, p(HEMAPA) monolithic columns were developed as a novel kind of solid-phase extraction adsorbents, as well as p(HEMAPA) solid-phase extraction (SPE) adsorbent was coupled with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) (p(HEMAPA-HPLC) for the determination of benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) on-line mode. After p(HEMAPA-HPLC) parameters including the injection volume, flow rate, and the sample volume had been optimized in detail, BaP separation procedures on the p(HEMAPA-HPLC) containing mobile phase, different amounts of BaP, and reusability were performed. Advantages of this procedure are low quantitation limits (0.05–1.0 ng/mL), short extraction time, low consumption of organic solvents, and ease of automation and operation of the whole analysis. The experimental results indicated that p(HEMAPA-HPLC) allowed for one-step BaPs extraction, clean-up and analytical determination under the optimal conditions. The reusability of BaPs from water samples was 99.7% with a negligible capacity decrease after ten adsorption–desorption cycles. The method detection limit (MDL), relative standard deviation (RSD) and recovery were obtained as 0.007 ng/mL, 0.26%, and 97.0%, respectively. It was concluded that p(HEMAPA) monolithic column coupled with HPLC was an excellent alternative for the routine analysis of BaPs at trace level.Öğe Purification of Fab and Fc using papain immobilized cryogel bioreactor separator system(Elsevier, 2020) Armutcu, Canan; Corman, Mehmet Emin; Bayram, Engin; Uzun, LokmanThe continuous bed bioreactor systems have been used for the production of protein therapeutics, such as IgG, using immobilized enzyme in biopharmaceutical applications. We developed macroporous poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate-co-glycidyl methacrylate) cryogel-based bioreactor matrix using sodium dodecyl sulfate as surfactans in the presence of ethylene glycol dimethacrylate as cross linking agent by bulk polymerization. The developed polyGMA immobilized bioreactor with papain enzyme was used for specific fragmentation of immunoglobulin G. The catalysis efficiency for immobilized enzyme were investigated in comparison with free enzyme. The immobilized papain displayed broad catalytic activity over a variety of conditions, with maximal activity around pH 7.0 and 70 degrees C. The Michaelis-Menten kinetic constant (K-m), the maximum reaction velocity (V-max), and the catalytic efficiency (k(cat)) for free enzyme were 0.1097 mg/mL, 29.9 mg/mL/min, and 92.01 1/min, respectively, whereas for immobilized enzyme, K-m, V-max, and k(cat) values were 0.1078 mg/mL, 30.53 mg/mL/min, and 94.3 1/min, respectively. In a further step, after digestion, remarkable digestion products of bioreactor, Fab and Fc fragments, produced with immobilized papain bioreactors were analyzed in two ways by SDS-PAGE and reversed-phase HPLC; it was demonstrated that papain immobilized bioreactor successfully used for the digestion of human IgG with high activity. Therefore, the polyGMA cryogel immobilized with papain exhibited a very effective matrix for the bioreactor which can be considered as an alternative bioreactor matrix with great promise in biopharmaceutical applications.Öğe Rapid Analysis of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Water Samples Using an Automated On-line Two-Dimensional Liquid Chromatography(Springer International Publishing Ag, 2019) Armutcu, Canan; Ozgur, Erdogan; Karasu, Tunca; Bayram, Engin; Uzun, Lokman; Corman, Mehmet EminTwo-dimensional HPLC (2D-HPLC) recently has received great attention due to providing high resolving power and higher peak capacities than that of 1D-HPLC, especially dealing with a wide spectrum of sample matrices containing several components. In this work, an on-line heart-cutting two-dimensional liquid chromatography (2D-LC) method was developed using monolithic columns coupled with reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC). 2D-HPLC was successfully carried out using affinity-based monolithic columns at first dimension (20 cm x 4.6 mm I.D.) followed by a Pinnacle II PAH column (50 mm x 4.6 mm I.D.) at the second dimension. Furthermore, good linearity was observed for the correlation of the benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) molecule against the peak areas (R-2 = 0.994) in the concentration range of 0.01-1.0 ng/mL in 30 min. The limit of detection and the limit of quantification were found to be 4.0 pg/mL and 12.0 pg/mL, respectively. Both the intra-day and inter-day precision at 0.01 and 0.1 ng/mL spiked concentrations were below than 2.35% RSD whereas the means of the recovery data of the BaP from the water samples were found to be in the range of 93.71-98.65%. These results demonstrate that the 2D-HPLC system, developed by the combination of the P(HEMA-MAPA) column and Pinnacle II PAH column, is reliable, stable, and well qualified in the extraction of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons from the water samples.Öğe Rapid, efficient and selective preconcentration of benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) by molecularly imprinted composite cartridge and HPLC(Elsevier, 2017) Corman, Mehmet Emin; Armutcu, Canan; Uzun, Lokman; Denizli, AdilIn this study, cryogel-based molecularly imprinted composite cartridges were designed for the rapid, efficient, and selective preconcentration of benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) from water samples. First, a BaP-imprinted poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate-N-methacryloyl-(L)-phenylalanine) composite cartridge was synthesized under semi-frozen conditions and characterized by scanning electron microscopy, elemental analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and swelling tests. After the optimization of preconcentration parameters, i.e., pH and initial BaP concentration, the selectivity and preconcentration efficiency, and reusability of these cartridges were also evaluated. In selectivity experiments, BaP imprinted composite cartridge exhibited binding capacities 3.09, 9.52, 8.87, and 8.77-fold higher than that of the non-imprinted composite cartridge in the presence of competitors, such as benzo[b]fluoranthene (BbF), benzo[k]fluoranthene (BkF), indeno[1,2,3-cd]pyrene (lcdP), and 1-naphthol, respectively. The method detection limit (MDL), relative standard deviation (RSD) and preconcentration efficiency (PE) of the synthesized composite cartridge were calculated as 24.86 mu g/L, 1.60%, and 349,6%, respectively.

The monoliths were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, thermal gravimetrical analysis, surface area measurements and elemental analysis. The reversible nature of the hypercrosslinking process was proved by repeated crosslinking and denaturation cycles by using ferric ions as an oxidant and urea as a reductant, respectively meanwhile performing surface area measurements for both situations to demonstrate the variation in the surface porosity. The multipoint BET surface areas of poly(HEMA), surface ion imprinted (Cd-SII-HM) and non-imprinted (NI-HM) monoliths were determined as 269.1 m(2) g(-1), 79.1 m(2) g(-1), and 67.4 m(2) g(-1), respectively. By breaking hypercrosslinks, the micropore volume decreased from 39.7 mm3 g-1 to 11.8 mm(3) g(-1) while the cumulative pore volume decreased from 30.7 mm(3) g(-1) to 9.1 mm(3) g(-1) during urea treatment. At the first step, the affecting factors such as initial Cd(II) ion concentrations, pH and adsorption time were optimized. Then, the selectivity of the Cd-SII-HM for Cd(II) against other metal ions was evaluated not only from singular solutions but also from triple and quadruple solutions, which included Pb(II), Zn(II) and Hg(II) ions as competitors. The relative selectivity coefficients were calculated as 3.28, 15.61 and 58.55 for Cd(II)/Zn(II), Cd(II)/Pb(II) and Cd(II)/Hg(II) pairs. The results obtained indicated that the developed reversible and easy post-crosslinking method is quite applicable for producing the surface ion-imprinted polymers with high selectivity for the template ions [Cd(II)] regarding the potential competitor ions [Zn(II), Pb(II) and Hg(II)].Öğe Self-oriented nanoparticles for site-selective immunoglobulin G recognition via epitope imprinting approach(Elsevier, 2014) Corman, Mehmet Emin; Armutcu, Canan; Uzun, Lokman; Say, Ridvan; Denizli, AdilMolecular imprinting is a polymerization technique that provides synthetic analogs for template molecules. Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) have gained much attention due to their unique properties such as selectivity and specificity for target molecules. In this study, we focused on the development of polymeric materials with molecular recognition ability, so molecular imprinting was combined with miniemulsion polymerization to synthesize self-orienting nanoparticles through the use of an epitope imprinting approach. Thus, L-lysine imprinted nanoparticles (LMIP) were synthesized via miniemulsion polymerization technique. Immunoglobulin G (IgG) was then bound to the cavities that specifically formed for L-lysine molecules that are typically found at the C-terminus of the Fc region of antibody molecules. The resulting nanoparticles makes it possible to minimize the nonspecific interaction between monomer and template molecules. In addition, the orientation of the entire IgG molecule was controlled, and random imprinting of the IgG was prevented. The optimum conditions were determined for IgG recognition using the imprinted nanoparticles. The selectivity of the nanoparticles against IgG molecules was also evaluated using albumin and hemoglobin as competitor molecules. In order to show the self-orientation capability of imprinted nanoparticles, human serum albumin (HSA) adsorption onto both the plain nanoparticles and immobilized nanoparticles by anti-human serum albumin antibody (anti-HSA antibody) was also carried out. Due to anti-HSA antibody immobilization on the imprinted nanoparticles, the adsorption capability of nanoparticles against HSA molecules vigorously enhanced. It is proved that the oriented immobilization of antibodies was appropriately succeeded. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V.

Ozgen; Armutcu, Canan; Uzun, Lokman; Garipcan, Bora; Corman, Mehmet EminIn this study, poly(2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate) [p(HEMA)] based hydrogels responsive to the pH, temperature and magnetic field were synthesized. The surface properties of p(HEMA) were improved by designing the stimuli-responsive hydrogels made of MAGA, NIPAAm and methacrylate-decorated magnetite nanoparticles as a function of pH-, thermo- and magnetic responsive cell culture surfaces. These materials were then modified an abundant extracellular matrix component, type I collagen, which has been considered as a biorecognition element to increase the applicability of hydrogels to cell viability. Based on results from scanning electronmicroscopy (SEM) and thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), stimuli-responsive hydrogel demonstrated improved non-porous structures and thermal stability with a high degree of cross-linking. Mechanical analyses of the hydrogels also showed that stimuli-responsive hydrogels are more elastomeric due to the polymeric chains and heterogeneous amorphous segments compared to plain hydrogels. Furthermore, surface modification of hydrogels with collagen provided better biocompatibility, which was confirmed with L929 fibroblast cell adhesion. Produced stimuli-responsive hydrogels modulated cellular viability by changing pH and magnetic field.
