Background: Hemoglobin A1c(HgA1c) is a marker of poor gylcemic control and elevation HgA1c is associated with increased risk of many cancers. We aimed to determine the HgA1c levels in endometrial cancer cases and any relationship with stage and grade of disease. Materials and Methods: A retrospective data review was performed between June 2011 and October 2012 at a tertiary referral center in Turkey. The study included 35 surgically staged endometrial cancer patients and 40 healthy controls. Preoperative HgA1c levels drawn within 3 months before surgery were compared. Also the relationships between HgA1c levels and stage, grade and hystologic type of cancer cases were evaluated. Results: The mean HgA1c levels were statistically significantly higher at $6.19{\pm}1.44$ in endometrial cancer cases than the $5.61{\pm}0.58$ in controls (p=0.027). With endometrial cancer cases, the mean HgA1c level was found to be $6.62{\pm}1.40$ for stage I and $6.88{\pm}1.15$ for stages II-IV (p=0.07). The figures were $6.74{\pm}1.65$ for endometrioid and $6.63{\pm}1.41$ for non-endometrioid type tumors (p=0.56). Mean HgA1c levels of $6.72{\pm}1.14$ for grade 1 and $6.62{\pm}1.42$ for grade 2-3 were observed (p=0.57). Conclusions: HgA1c levels in endometrial cancer patients were statistically higher than healthy controls. However, HgA1c did not show any significant correlation with stage, grade and histologic type in endometrial cancer cases.

A method of selective determination of inorganic and organic mercury compounds has been described. The $CHCl_3$ solution of a high molecular quaternary alkylammonium salt, Aliquat 336 was used for the simultaneous preconcentration of both inorganic, $Hg^{2+}$ as its thiocyanate complex, and organic mercury compounds, $CH_3HgCl$ and $C_2H_3O_2$ $HgC_6H_5$ by extraction from their aqueous solution. Selective separation of the inorganic mercury from the extract was followed by stripping with 3 M $HClO_4 $ solution for the subsequent determination by CVAAS. Organic mercury was also determined by CVAAS after removal of $CHCl_3solvent$ from the extract and decomposition of the residue with 4% $KMnO_4 $-1 MH_2$S0_4$. The mixtures of inorganic and organic mercury compounds contained 1.0 $\mug$ as Hg in 50 mL of sample solution(0.02 ${\mu}gHg/mL$) were analysed within ${\pm}6%$ by absolute errors.

We report on p-type arsenic doping of metalorganic vapor phase epitaxially (MOVPE) grown HgCdTe on (100) GaAs. HgCdTe was grown at $370^{\circ}C$ in a horizontal reactor with using dimethy-cadmium, diisoprophyltelluride, and elemental Hg. We used tris-dimethylaminoarsenic (DMAAs) as the metalorganic for p-doping. 4micron thick CdTe and subsequently 10micron thick HgCdTe were grown on (100) GaAs substrate. Interdiffused multilayer process in which thin CdTe and HgTe layers are grown alternately and interdiffused to obtain homogeneous HgCdTe alloys was used. Arsenic was doped during CdTe growth cycle. After growth HgCdTe was annealed at $415^{\circ}C$ for 15 min and then annealed again at $220^{\circ}C$ for 3 hr, both with Hg-saturate condition. We could obtain p-doping from 2.5$\times$$10^{16}$ to 6.6$\times$$10^{17}$$cm^{-3}$, depending on the DMAAs partial pressure. With the dual Hg-annealing, activation of arsenic was aboutt 90%, which was confirmed by SIMS measurement. With only low temperature annealing at $220^{\circ}C$ for 3hr, activation efficiency was about 50%.

It was tried to utilize organic waste sludge from wastewater treatment plant as a starting material to produce a solid fuel by vacuum flying. The effects of decompression levels, frying time and temperature on the calorific value and moisture of vacuum fried sludge were systematically investigated. Dewatered raw sludge used in this study had a moisture of 81.1% and calorific value of 2,930 kcal/kg. Based on the experimental observation, it was identified that the decompression level and frying time have the greatest influence on the calorific value of vacuum fried sludge. Moistures of the fried sludge at $180^{\circ}C$ for 25 min in 760 mmHg, 684 mmHg and 630 mmHg were 32.4%, 14.2% and 11.6%, respectively. Calorific values of the vacuum fried sludge at $140^{\circ}C$ for 15 min and 25 min were 5,400 kcal/kg and 5,540 kcal/kg in 684 mmHg and 5,520 kcal/kg and 5,660 kcal/kg in 630 mmHg, respectively.

$HgGa_2S_4$ single crystals were grown by the chemical transport reaction method. The $HgGa_2S_4$ single crystal crystallized into a defect chalcopyrite structure $(I\bar{4})$. The lattice constants of the single crystal were found to be a=5.635 ${\AA}$ and c=10.473 ${\AA}$. The direct and indirect optical energy gaps were found to be 2.84 eV and 2.78 eV, respectively. Photoluminescence peaks of $HgGa_2S_4$ single crystal were observed at 2.37 eV, 2.18 eV, and 1.81 eV. In the single crystal, the donor level of 0.25 eV, the acceptor levels of 0.97 eV and 0.41 eV were obtained by TSC, PICTS, and absorption measurements. The photoluminescence peaks were analyzed to relate to the indirect conduction band, the donor level, and the acceptor levels.

Methylmercury (MeHg) is a ubiquitous environmental toxicant that can be exposed to humans by ingestion of contaminated food including fish and bread. MeHg has been suggested to exert its toxicity through its high reactivity to thiols, generation of arachidonic acid and reactive oxygen species (ROS), and elevation of intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ levels (［$Ca^{2+}$］$_{i}$). However, the precise mechanism has not been fully defined. Here we show that phosphatidylcholine-specific phospholipase C (PC-PLC) is a critical pathway for MeHg-induced toxicity. MeHg activated the acidic form of sphingomyelinase (A-SMase) and group IV cytosolic phospholipase $A_2$ ($cPLA_2$) downstream of PC-PLC, but these enzymes as well as protein kinase C were not linked to MeHg's toxicity. Furthermore, MeHg produced ROS, which did not cause the toxicity. However, D6O9, an inhibitor of PC-PLC, significantly reversed the toxicity in a time- and dose-dependent manner in MDCK and SH-5YSY cells. Addition of EGTA to culture media resulted in partial decrease of [$Ca^{2+}$］$_{i}$ and partially blocked cell death. In contrast, D609 completely prevented cell death with parallel decreases in diacylglycerol and ［$Ca^{2+}$］$_{i}$. Together, our findings indicated that MeHg-induced toxicity was caused by elevation of ［$Ca^{2+}$]$_{i}$ through activation of PC-PLC. The toxicity was not attributable to the signaling pathways such as $cPLA_2$, A-SMase, and PKC, or to the generation of ROS.
