Abstract In this paper, a computer-based analysis of AC-coupled silicon microstrip detectors is presented. The study aims at investigating the main geometrical parameters responsible for potentially critical effects, such as early micro-discharges and breakdown phenomena. The adoption of CAD tools allows for evaluating the actual field distribution within the device, and makes it possible to id...

A new, simple, rapid, sensitive and environmentally friendly ultrasound-assisted emulsification dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction (UAE-DLLME) has been developed for trace nickel Ni(II) separation preconcentration in environmental samples prior to spectrophotometric determination. The proposed method based on using non-ionic water-soluble surfactant Triton X-114 (TX-114) as a disperser so...

Background & Aim: Essential oils are isolated from different sections of plants such as flowers, seeds, leaves, stems and roots. Essential oils are applied extensively in producing of perfumes, cosmetics, foods, beverages and confectioneries and as ingredients of disinfectants and insecticides. Experimental: Essential oil are obtained by several isolation methods, such as hydrodistillation (HD...

A simple and rapid solidified vortex assisted 1-undecanol based liquid-liquid microextraction technique was proposed for preconcentration of trace levels of lead ions. The extraction solvent (1-undecanol) was dispersed into the aqueous samples by the assistance of vortex agitator. 100 µL of 1-undecanol containing ethyl (2Z)-3-[(5-chloro-7-methyl[1,3]thiazolo[5,4-d]pyrimidi...

In this study a new method of preconcentration, separation and efficient measuring of so-called hollow fiber solid / liquid phase microextraction has been introduced for the determination of trace amounts of lorazepam (LRZ) in water samples, urine and hair using differential pulse voltammetry. To this end, a hybrid adsorbent material was used that involved ionic liquid assisted magnetic multi-w...

The widespread use of perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) is resulting in a broad human exposure to these endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs), prompting biomonitoring research evaluate its magnitude and impact, especially during critical windows such as fetal perinatal periods. This study was focused on developing method determine 10 PFAS placental tissue by combining salt-assisted liquid-liquid...

In this paper, a simple and versatile route was introduced to prepare solid-phase microextraction coatings on the chemically inert titanium wire. Titania nanotube array film can be created on metallic substrates by electrochemical anodization in fluoride-containing electrolytes and subsequently support various secondary reactions to prepare functional surfaces. In the present work, titania nano...

A new analytical method coupling a (off-line) solid-phase microextraction with an on-line capillary electrophoresis (CE) sample enrichment technique was developed for the analysis of ketoprofen, naproxen and clofibric acid from water samples, which are known as contaminants of emerging concern in aquatic environments. New solid-phase microextraction fibers based on physical coupling of chromato...
