Evaluation of radiolabeled curcumin-loaded solid lipid nanoparticles usage as an imaging agent in liver-spleen scintigraphy.

Curcumin-loaded solid lipid nanoparticles (C-SLNs) were prepared using micro emulsion and ultrasonication methods in the first stage of this study to determine the role of C-SLN on liver-spleen scintigraphy. It was concluded that the curcumin that was encapsulated in solid lipid nanoparticles had a β' polymorph structure according to the X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. İt was concluded that these particles were at nano scale according to the laser diffraction (LD) analysis.

An Investigation of the Usability of Solid Lipid Nanoparticles Radiolabelled with Tc-99m as Imaging Agents in Liver-Spleen Scintigraphy.

In this work, solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) were prepared by microemulsion and ultrasonication methods in the first stage of the production process of 99mTc–SLNs, which is considered to be an alternative radiopharmaceutical for the liver-spleen scintigraphy within the nuclear medicine. The laser diffraction (LD) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis showed that these particles were at nano scale and had β' polymorph structure, respectively. It was observed that there was no interaction between the solid lipid and the surfactant molecules by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR).

Bio-sorption of Tl-201 radionuclide on olive pomace.

This work presents an investigation on the bio-sorption of Tl-201 radionuclide used in nuclear medicine on olive pomace. The experimental parameters were chosen as temperature, the initial pH of the solution, stirring speed, bio-sorbent dose and nominal particle size of bio-sorbent. The initial pH of the solution was found to be the most effective parameter.

Biosorption of Ga-67 radionuclides from aqueous solutions onto waste pomace of an olive oil factory.

The aim of this research was to test the removal of Ga-67 radionuclides from aqueous solutions by biosorption onto waste pomace of an olive oil factory (WPOOF). Batch adsorption studies were performed in order to investigate the temperature, the initial pH of the solution, the stirring speed, the biosorbent dose, and the nominal particle size of the biosorbent in the experimental work. The most effective parameter was found to be the initial pH.

An environmentally friendly process; adsorption of radionuclide Tl-201 on fibrous waste tea.

This work presents an investigation of the adsorption of the radionuclide of Tl-201 from waste water on the fibrous tea factory waste. The experimental parameters were chosen as temperature, pH, stirring speed, adsorbent dose and nominal particle size in the ranges of 10.0-40.
