Squaring the Circle: The EU's Operational Impact in the Black Sea Region
(Routledge Journals Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2014)
The aim of this paper is to explain the flux in the European Union (EU) policies towards the Black Sea region with a particular comparative focus on the impact of the EU's operations in the South Caucasus and the EU Border ...
Synthesis of some novel hydrazone and 2-pyrazoline derivatives: Monoamine oxidase inhibitory activities and docking studies
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2014)
A novel series of 2-pyrazoline and hydrazone derivatives were synthesized and investigated for their human monoamine oxidase (hMAO) inhibitory activity. All compounds inhibited the hMAO isoforms (MAO-A or MAO-B) competitively ...
The effects of Dea:water ratio on the properties of ZnO nanofilms obtained by spin coating method
(Elsevier Science, 2014)
In this work the ZnO were fabricated with the sol-gel spin coating method and the effects of the Dea:water ratios on the properties of the as-prepared ZnO thin films were determined by using a X-ray diffractometer transmission ...
Macroeconomic and institutional determinants of financialisation of non-financial firms: Case study of Turkey
(Oxford University Press, 2014)
We observe that industrial firms in Turkey have shifted substantial amounts of working capital from production activities to the purchase of high-yield interest-bearing assets most notably public bonds to ensure immediate ...
Measurement of bivariate risks by the north-south quantile points approach
(Elsevier Science, 2014)
This paper attempts to determine the Value at Risk (VaR) and Conditional Value at Risk (CVaR) measures for the sum of bivariate risks under dependence. The computation of these risk measures is performed by the north-south ...
Cation Effect on Slow Release from Alginate Beads: A Fluorescence Study
(Springer/Plenum Publishers, 2014)
In this study spherical alginate beads containing pyranine (P-y) as a fluorescence probe were prepared by ionotropic gelation of a sodium alginate solution. The steady state fluorescence technique was used to study pyranine ...
Aryl butenoic acid derivatives as a new class of histone deacetylase inhibitors: synthesis in vitro evaluation and molecular docking studies
(Scientific Technical Research Council Turkey-Tubitak, 2014)
New aryl butenoic acid derivatives have been synthesized by combining hydroxy- or methoxy-substituted phenyl rings as the capping group with a double bond in the short linker as well as metal binding groups enoic ester and ...
Changing Practices in International Broadcasting The BBC World Service Example
(Ankara Univ, Fac Communication, 2014)
Looking at the history of international broadcasting, one can observe that governments utilised international media as an element of public diplomacy as early as 1930s. Some of the first examples are seen at the BBC (British ...
