The European Union and Turkey: A review of their commonalities and disparities using cluster analysis
(Vilnius Gediminas Technical University, 2014-01)Turkey has enjoyed considerable economic growth over the past decade and has a positive economic outlook and strong growth prospects. The country benefits from being located between Europe and the major energy producers ... -
Prognostic significance of the IgVH mutation status and immunohistochemical analysis of ZAP70 and CD38 in bone marrow biopsies in chronic lymphocytic leukemia
(Türkiye Klinikleri, 2014)Objective: Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is one of the most common leukemia type among adults in the industrialized countries. Due to the nature of CLL, it is important to recognize patients with a more rapid course ... -
Application of geothermal energy and its environmental problems in Turkey
(Inderscience Enterprises, 2015-09)Human beings have been benefiting from geothermal energy for different uses since the dawn of the civilisation in many parts of the world. One of the earliest uses of geothermal energy was for heating and it was used ... -
Mineral compositions of some selected centaurea species from Turkey
(Chemical Publishing Co., 2014)Centaurea calolepis Boiss., Centaurea lydia Boiss. and Centaurea polyclada DC. were investigated for major minerals and trace elements by X-ray fluorescence spectrometry. Calcium and potassium were found in maximum ... -
Source of arsenic based on geological and hydrogeochemical properties of geothermal systems in Western Turkey
(Elsevier, 2012-12)Turkey is an area of complex geology with active tectonics and high geothermal potential. Especially, the western part of Turkey is a region of abundant geothermal activity. Faults accommodating the deep circulation of ... -
