tobacco (nicotiana tabacum l.) is an important industrial crop and its seeds contain significant amounts of oil. the extraction of oil components using solvent at high pressure, or supercritical fluid (scf), has received much attention. in the present study, statistical analyses showed that the average extraction yield of seed oil of five tobacco varieties using sfe was 9.33%, which was higher ...

Oil heat treatment can effectively improve the dimensional stability and bio-durability of wood. However, the characteristics of high oil uptake (50 percent or higher) and high susceptibility to leaching from wood have an adverse effect on subsequent manufacturing processes of wood product and production costs. A solvent extraction (100% ethanol) process was used to extract the surplus oil from...

to assess the sources, entry routes and degree of contamination of pah compounds in surface sediments of the southwestern caspian sea coasts (gillan province) total of 129 surface sediment samples from 28 rivers and 5 transect across the gillan province coasts (from astara to lahijan; 10, 20 and 50 m depth) were collected in the spring and summer of 2012. after extraction using soxhlet method, ...

light, amber and dark colored kernels were rated by eye on a scale of 3 different genotypes (zh1, zh2 and zh3). the oil content was measured using the soxhlet extraction method, ranged from 57.26 to 68.29%, for zh1 (light) and zh2 (amber) respectively. fatty acid compositions were measured using gas chromatography. the main fatty acids were linoleic, oleic and linolenic acids, respectively. als...

In this study, it was aimed to compare the antioxidant properties of extracts obtained from extraction olive leaves in Hatay province prepared with different solvents. For purpose, were extracted using pure methyl alcohol soxhlet and also by maceration 60% ethanol, 70% methanol, 90% acetone (v/v) distilled water. Total Flavonoid Content (TFC), Phenolic (TPC), Ferric Antioxidant Reducing Power (...

A selective pressurized liquid extraction procedure (SPLE) was developed for a fast determination of polychlorinated biphenyls in sediment. The final method was performed at 100 degrees C with heptane/dichloromethane (90:10, v/v) as extraction solvent for 2x5 min. Sulfuric acid impregnated silica was placed downstream of the sample in the extraction cell to remove interfering components. This s...
