The brown lacewings (Neuroptera, Hemerobiidae) of northwestern Turkey with new records, their spatio-temporal distribution and harbouring plants. The occurrence and spatio-temporal distribution of brown lacewing species (Neuroptera, Hemerobiidae) in Bursa province, northwestern Turkey, was investigated during 1999-2011. A total of 852 brown lacewing specimens of 20 species, including the genera of Hemerobius, Megalomus, Micromus, Sympherobius, and Wesmaelius were collected. Of these, 12 species were new records for northwestern Turkey while Sympherobius klapaleki is a new record for the Neuroptera fauna of Turkey. The most widesprea . . .d species were Hemerobius handschini and Sympherobius pygmaeus with percent dominance values of 42.00 and 15.96%, respectively. Wesmaelius subnebulosus was the earliest emerging hemerobiid species and had the longest flight activity lasting from March to October. The species of southern origin characterized by the Mediterranean elements constituted 55% of the hemerobiid fauna and prevailed over the species of northern origin that belong to the Siberian centres. The total number of hemerobiid species reached a peak in July with captures of 15 species per month. There were 11, 13, 18 and 5 hemerobiid species occurring at altitudes between 1–500, 501–1000, 1001–1500 and 1500–2000 m, respectively. In addition, plant species harbouring hemerobiids are given for each species, and their association with the hemerobiid fauna is discussed. - Keywords: Bursa; host plants; Insecta; phenology; vertical distributio More less

Инструментарий определяет звуковое поле инструментальной музыки, но и сам отражает определенный этап ее развития. Взаимосвязь между музыкальными инструментами и инструментальной музыкой реализуется как на уровне традиционной музыкальной системы в целом, так и в каждом конкретном проявлении. Отсюда непременным является: а) исследование инструментализма в системе духовной и материальной культуры народа, ее социализации в связи с традициями бытия, хозяйственной деятельности, проведения обрядов, различных видов искусства в процессе исторического развития культуры и самих этносов - ее создателей и носителей; б) неразрывное и синхронное и . . .зучение инструментария и инструментальной музыки на всех этапах как базис исследования; в) введение в сферу исследования проблемы исполнительства и личности музыканта (изготовителя инструментов, создателя и носителя музыкальных произведений, педагога - хранителя традиций) More less

The Kurdish problem had played a big role in foreign policies of countries in the Middle East, mainly Turkey, Iraq, Iran, Syria, and Russia during the 1990s. This article tries to answer the question of how Kurdish problem shaped and changed the international subsystem in the Middle East between the first Gulf War in 1991 and the second Gulf War in 2003. I propose a theory to explain the succcess or the failure of the ethnic revolts. This paper takes the existence of the ethnic sesseccionist movement as given. These movements are dormant or ineffective due to constrains provided by the international system. The change in the interna . . .tional system, in our case the end of Cold War and the Gulf War, creates opportunity for ethnic groups, such as Iraqi Kurds to attempt to seccede from central government. The states in the region responded and this created power vacuum and escalated interestate conflict in the region. In this power vacuum, the support of hegemon for ethnic group is necessary condition for the success of the ethnic secession movement. If the USA as a hegemon had supported the seccesionist movements, a new international system would have emerged : new states i the region. However, ideological affinity and alliance between regional power and hegemon do not let hegemon support for minority as in between Turkey and the USA. If ineffective state such as Iraq after the Gulf War is unable to crush the revolt and ethnic group is fragmented, the çivil war reigns as happened in Iraq during the 1990s. - Keywords: secessionism, hegemonic stability theory,Kurds,Turkey, Ira More less

The voltammetric behavior of sildenafil citrate (SC) was studied through differential pulse stripping voltammetry. The best sensitivity, optimal experimental conditions and settings for the voltammetric method development were obtained by applying experimental design and optimization methodology to the designed sample runs at different accumulation times, accumulation potentials and pHs. The linearity over the concentration range 1 × 10–7 M–8 × 10–6 M for SC was determined and the limit of detection (LOD) was 3.1 × 10–8 M. For the method ability and validity, mean recovery result and relative standard deviation were found to be 99.3 . . .% and 2.19%, respectively. The method was applied to the determination of SC in pharmaceutical and plasma samples. More less

This study was carried out to determine the presence and frequency of Anaplasma ovis and Anaplasma phagocytophilum in small ruminants from Bingol, Elazig, Malatya and Mus provinces. A total of 422 (291 sheep and 131 goats) blood samples were collected from apparently healthy animals. To determine of A. ovis and A. phagocytophilum in small ruminants, species-specific PCRs were set up using 60 kDA chaperonin gene (cpn60, also known as hsp60 or groEL) and 16S SSU rRNA gene primer sets, respectively. A total of 301 (71.32%) animals were found infected with A. ovis and/or A. phagocytophilum . The percentages of positive animals for A. ov . . .is and A. phagocytophilum were 67.06% (283/422) and 19.66% (83/422), respectively. The rate of concurrent infections was 15.40% (65/422). Four PCR products from positive samples were purified from agarose gel and sequenced. These sequences were identical to the reported nucleotide sequences of A. ovis and A. phagocytophilum . This is the first molecular based study on the detection of A. phagocytophylum and A. ovis in small ruminants from East Anatolia Region. Further studies are needed on the determination of the genotypes and vectors of the species. - Keywords:Anaplasma ovis, Anaplasma phagocytophilum, Sheep, Goat, East Anatolia Regio More less

Investment and saving behaviour of individuals are important issues in the economies. Risk tolerance of investors affects the investment decisions. In Kyrgyzstan, a transition economy, while the investment resources are high, savings of individuals in financial organizations are low. This study analyses the risk tolerance of individual investors in Kyrgyzstan and determines the factors influencing investor types. In the study multinomial logit model is used to determine these factors. The findings of the study show that men take more risk than women in Kyrgyzstan. When the age increases people become less risk lover. Having non-wage . . . income increases taking risk and increases in the rate of investment. The findings also indicate that income has a positive effect on the risk loving sense More less

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 were investigated. All the catalysts wer . . .e characterized by transmission electron microscope (TEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Electrochemical measurements are performed to compare the catalytic efficiencies of methanol oxidation. Experimental results demonstrated that graphene oxide-supported bimetallic nanoparticles enhanced electrochemical efficiency for methanol electro-oxidation with regard to diffusion efficiency, oxidation potential and forward oxidation peak current. Graphene oxide-supported Ag@AuNPs, in comparison to graphene oxide-supported Fe@AuNPs and AuNPs, showed the more efficiency for methanol electro-oxidation. - Keywords: Fuel cell; Graphene oxide; Nanoparticle; Characterization; Methanol oxidatio More less
