The ability to recognize the liquid surface and the liquid level in transparent containers is perhaps the most commonly used evaluation method when dealing with fluids. Such recognition is essential in determining the liquid volume, fill level, phase boundaries and phase separation in various fluid systems. The recognition of liquid surfaces is particularly important in solution chemistry, wher...

ABSTRACT: In this study, an analytical method is developed to determine 15 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in olive and refined pomace olive oils using HPLC coupled with a fluorescence detector. The standardised method of ultrasound-assisted solvent extraction consisted of liquid–liquid extraction with organic solvent and purification on C18 and Florisil bonded-phase cartridges was modi...

Chirality and liquid crystals are both widely expressed in nature and biology. Helical assembly of mesophasic molecules and colloids may produce intriguing chiral liquid crystals. To date, chiral liquid crystals of 2D colloids have not been explored. As a typical 2D colloid, graphene is now receiving unprecedented attention. However, making macroscopic graphene fibres is hindered by the poor di...

Objective: The usage of pesticides has increased during the recent years. One the other hand, presence of harmful pesticides residue in rice and other food has caused a great concern among the consumers. Therefore, it is important to develop some pragmatic procedures to increase the food safety along with the reduction in consumption of pesticide residues. Methods: A gas chromatograph with elec...

the purpose of the present paper is to develop light beam method to measurement of interfacial area in a rectangular gas-liquid bubble column. total interfacial area can be determined in bubble column filled by transparent liquid by light transmission method. according to pervious researches, the fraction of parallel light is function of interfacial area and optical path length that these two p...

easily degradating and various isomeric forms of rapamycin (sirolimus) face the determination of this compound to many challenges. in this study, we developed and validated the isocratic reversed phase high performance liquid chromatographic (rp-hplc) method for rapamycin. separation was performed on a c8 column (mz, 15 × 4.6 mm, 5 µm particle size) using methanol:water (80:20 v/v) as the mobil...

background and objective: early determination of antibacterial susceptibility increases the success of therapy, decreases unnecessary use of antibacterial agents and side-effects, and lowers the overall healthcare cost. materials and methods: a rapid colorimetric method for antibacterial susceptibility testing named qui-sensitest (inovative biotechnology organization, istanbul, turkey) was eval...
