BACKGROUND Food preservation is basically done to preserve the natural characteristics and appearance of the food and to increase the shelf life of food. Food preservatives in use are natural, chemical and artificial. Keeping in mind the adverse effects of synthetic food preservatives, there is a need to identify natural food preservatives. The aims of this study were to evaluate in vitro antio...

A simple ion imprinted amino-functionalized sorbent was synthesized by coupling activated carbon with iminodiacetic acid, a functional compound for metal chelating, through cyanoric chloride spacer. The resulting sorbent has been characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), elemental analysis, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and evaluated for the preconcentration and de...

When chelating-resin solid phase extraction (SPE) was used for the preconcentration of trace elements in environmental water samples around sewage treatment plants (STP), low recovery values several were observed. In present work, adverse effect coexisting EDTA on various during SPE procedure investigated detail. It found that contained at hundred nmol L?1 level, and interfered with adsorption ...

The absorption and excretion of gentisic acid has been studied to help clarify the confusion that exists in the literature. Data are given that support the retarding action of methyl cellulose and Benemid and also the manner in which these compounds are metabolized in the human body. The first metabolic study of the ethanolamide of gentisic acid in human subjects is described. Evidence is prese...

kinetics of radical polymerizations of waterborne alkyd/acrylic hybrid resin via batch mini-emulsion technique was studied using redox initiators (tbhp/fe2+/edta/asac  and  tbhp/fe2+/edta/sfs) at relatively low temperatures and thermal initiators (bpo, kps and aibn) at higher temperatures to seek the most suitable initiator system. at the end of all reactions the unreacted monomer content was r...

A method for the preconcentration and speciation of chromium in seawater was developed. On-line preconcentration and determination were carried out by using inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES) with dual mini-columns containing a chelating resin. In this system, Cr(III) was collected on the first column. The effluent containing residual chromium from the first colum...

The spectrophotometric determination method of scandium with eriochrome cyanine R (ECR) and the composition ratio of the complex were investigated in the presence of surfactants. A volume of 5 mL of 1.0×10−3 M ECR and 10 mL of 2.0×10−4 M CTMAB are necessary for the determination of 1.0×10−7 ~ 3.0×10−6 M Sc(III) at pH 6.5. The apparent molar absorption coefficient of the Sc(III)-ECR-CTMAB, terna...
