This work presents a multi-residue analytical method based on solid phase extraction (SPE) followed by high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) with diode array (DAD) detection for the simultaneous determination of a group of pharmaceutical products that include ten antidepressants and three anticancerigenic in environmental samples (water and soil). Baseline separation of the studied com...

A highly sensitive and selective high performance liquid chromatographic fluorescence detection method has been developed and validated for the quantification of rivastigmine in rat plasma and brain. Protein precipitation and one-step liquid-liquid extraction techniques were utilized for the extraction of RSM from brain and plasma, respectively, along with an internal standard. The chromatograp...

Rotary disc contactor (RDC) has been widely used for liquid-liquid extraction owing to its advantages such as high operational flexibility, efficiency, throughput, as well as low driving power and capital cost. As a key variable in liquid-liquid extraction columns, hold-up has been discussed in the literature in three categories: static, dynamic and total hold-up.1 Static hold-up refers to that...

artificial neural networks (anns) are computer techniques that attempt to simulate the functionality and decision-making processes of the human brain. in the past few decades, artificial neural networks (anns) have been extensively used in a wide range of engineering applications. there are only a few applications in liquid membrane process. the objective of this research was to develop artific...

Simple and sensitive liquid chromatography (LC) methods with fluorescence (FL) detection for the determination of bendamustine (BM) in human plasma and urine were developed and validated. The procedure of BM extraction from a plasma sample involved solid-phase extraction with a C18 SPE column, while liquid-liquid extraction with dichloromethane was applied for a urine sample. In both methods, c...

This paper describes the development of a method for the simultaneous determination of ten anticoagulant rodenticides (coumafuryl, warfarin, pindone, coumatetralyl, coumachlor, difenacoum, bromadiolone, brodifacoum, chlorophacinone and flocoumafen) in the liver and kidney based on column-switching liquid chromatography coupled with heated electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry. The si...
