Prof. Dr. Abdil ÖZDEMİR is a Professor in the Department of Chemistry at Sakarya University's Faculty of Science, where he has served since 2014. Previously, he held positions as Associate Professor (2008), Assistant Professor (2004-2008), and Research Assistant (2003-2004) at the same institution. He completed his Integrated Doctorate in Chemistry at the University of Pittsburgh (1997-2003) with a thesis on "Structural Studies of Peptides by UV Resonance and Mass Spectrometry," following his undergraduate studies in Chemistry Teaching at Gazi University. Dr. ÖZDEMİR's research spans several key areas in analytical chemistry and materials science. His primary interests include spectroscopy, mass spectrometry techniques, water and wastewater treatment (particularly electrocoagulation methods), nanomaterials development, and insulin complexation studies. His work demonstrates strong interdisciplinary connections between analytical chemistry, biochemistry, environmental engineering, and polymer science, with numerous publications focusing on developing novel analytical methods and applying them to complex biological and environmental systems. Analysis of his 15 most recent publications reveals several key research directions. His work heavily focuses on mass spectrometry development and applications, particularly electrospray ionization techniques for studying non-covalent biomolecular interactions, especially insulin-metal ion complexes. Another significant thread involves environmental applications, particularly electrocoagulation for wastewater treatment and dye removal. His most recent work shows increasing interest in polymer chemistry, particularly antimicrobial films and conductive polymers. Dr. ÖZDEMİR has supervised multiple graduate students, including ERHAN KARABAYIR, ERKAN KIRBAÇ, CAN SERKAN KESKİN, ARZU ÇETİN, and AYŞENUR KORKMAZ. His research has been supported by several projects, including "Electrocoagulation method for textile wastewater treatment" and "Production of nano materials and their use in quantitative analysis of organic and biological materials." He has also served as an editor for journals including Journal of the Taiwan Institute of Chemical Engineers and Desalination and Water Treatment.
