several factors effect on sorption of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (pahs) in soil. co-existence of metals and organic matter of soil are among important affecting factors on sorptive behavior of pahs. this research investigated the effect of organic matter content and heavy metals (lead, nickel and zinc), on sorption of phenanthrene onto kaolinite. for this purpose, sorption of the organic ...

substance was also hydrolyzed lvith acid to split vinyl ethers (13). The products were partitioned between ether and water and cr-glycols determined in each phase. Saponification released considerable amounts of glycerol (Table I, 3b). Thus Eluate C1 from the silicic acid column apparently still contained some ester triglycerides. The ether-soluble fraction contained glycols which yielded on ac...

A method is described for the quantitative separation of radioactive bile acids and neutral sterols in human faeces on a potassium hydroxide-treated silicic acid column. Results obtained with faecal extracts containing metabolites derived from radioactive cholesterol, cholic acid, and chenodeoxycholic acid show that the efficiency of extraction is at least 96% and that mutual contamination betw...

The purpose of the present study was to examine the physico-chemical properties, fatty acids composition, unsaponifiable matter, tocopherols and phenolic content of Moringa oleifera seed oil from Al-Ahsa, Saudi Arabia. In addition, biological evaluation of this oil was determined. Moringa oil showed a better overall quality, its, acid, peroxide, iodine, saponification values. Sterol fraction wa...

Background. Opportunistic fungal infections like candidiasis are common in the oral cavity. In recent years Candida species have shown resistance against a number of synthetic drugs. This study assessed the antifungal activity of Centratherum anthelminticum and Ocimum sanctum seed oils against six common pathogenic Candida strains. Synergistic activity of the major oil components was also studi...
