Feeding Habits of the Mediterranean Horse Mackerel, Trachurus mediterraneus (Steindachner, 1868) in the Sea of Marmara (Bandırma Bay, Turkey)

Feeding habits of the horse mackarel, Trachurus mediterraneus in Bandırma Bay, the Sea of Marmara were investigated in the years of 2013-2015. Stomach contents of 90 specimens collected by commercial vessels were analysed. The stomach contents were determined to consist of 2 major systematic groups: Crustacea (Copepoda, Cladocera, Mysidacea, Ampipoda, Decapoda), and Pisces. The...

Three species belong to the family of Portunidae while two Maja species represent Majidae. The other...

Morphological Anomalies Observed on Vertebralina striata dOrbigny, 1826 Test in the Northern Coast of Karaburun Peninsula (Izmir-Turkey)

Morphological abnormalities have been observed on the test of recent foraminifer samples and locally different ecological conditions are suggested to be the cause of this phenomenon. Hypersalinity, presence of heavy metals, thermal springs, chemicals carried by the coastal and submarine springs found in karstic regions and rapid change in ecological parameters are suggested to...

Effect of Probiotics on Reproductive Performance of Fish

Probiotics are defined as live microorganisms which when administered in adequate amounts, confer a health benefit on the host. Nowadays, Probiotics are used for eco-friendly and sustainable production in many production areas. They have also been common organisms that used in aquaculture as growth promoter, stress tolerance, pathogen inhibition, and nutrient digestibility, to...

Investigation Some Biological Properties of Atlantic Mackerel Scomber scombrus Linnaeus, 1758 in the Sea of Marmara

In 2016, a total of 163 individuals were examined by random sampling from commercial fishermen in the Sea of Marmara. It was determined that the total length distribution of the samples varied between 12.0-27...

New-Age Pyroelectric Radiographic X-Ray Generators

Medical imaging history has begun with the discovery of X-rays. X-rays that are widely used since their invention in different areas from projectional radiography to computed tomography. Year by year their technology is improved in many aspects especially for their generation of which tubes are changed to get the most efficient rays. Nowadays different mechanisms are studied to...

Determination of Fatty Acid Profile and 3-Monochloropropane-1,2-diol (3-MCPD) Levels in Bakery Products

Thermally processed foods and refined oils are the most significant sources of 3-monochloropropane-1,2-diol (3-MCPD) fatty acid esters. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classified 3-MCPD as a “possible human carcinogen (group 2B)” and the UK Food Advisory Committee has recommended reducing its level to minimum in foods. In this study, firstly the fatty acid...

Planck’s Constant and Equation for Magnetic Field Waves

The classical Planck’s equation E = hν in terms of frequency ν is applicable for all light rays including x-rays and gamma rays. A new Planck equation E = ⓗλ in terms of wavelength λ is found for all magnetic field waves including radio waves. The new Planck constant ⓗ is found, approximately, and a one-to-one correspondence between ν for light rays and λ for magnetic field waves...

Determination of the 25th Frame with the Eeg Signals Stored in the Videos

Nowadays, the videos that appear in every part of our lives are a set of images resulting from the sequential addition of a series of image files. One second of the video is the result of the merging of 24 picture frames. The visual subliminal perceives 24 frames per second. It is difficult to see pictures hidden in the frames of videos and called the 25th frame effect. In this...

An Investigation of Base Plate Connections of a Steel Industrial Building Having Different Column Cross-Sections

In this study, steel column base plate connections of a steel industrial building that are one of the most important connection regions were studied. Two dimensional static analysis of a steel industrial building was performed and exposed column base plate dimensions were determined according to American Institute of Steel Construction Code-LRFD (Load and Resistance Factor Design...

The Introduction of a Marine Species Atherina boyeri into Bayramiç Reservoir, Çanakkale

This study reports the first recorded instance of Atherina boyeri (Risso, 1810) in the Bayramiç Reservoir, located on the Karamenderes Stream. Since 2005, ichthyological researches have been carried out in the Bayramiç Reservoir by various researchers, but none of them have noted the existence of A. boyeri in this reservoir. In the field studies conducted between May 2016 and...
