This study aims to extract Glycyrrhizic Acid (GA) from Glycyrrhiza glabra L. (licorice) using a novel, high efficiency, and low-cost extraction method. Water was chosen as the proper solvent for the extraction process to eliminate the requirement of harmful and toxic solvents, prepare an environmentally friendly process, and reduce the costs. The effect of differe...

abstract uranium as a natural radioactive heavy metal widely disperses throughout the earth's crust. in many cases, the natural abundance has been re-distributed due to anthropogenic activities, resulting in radionuclide contamination in groundwater and surface soil. uranium through the plant uptake can enter the chain. the degree of speciation of radio nuclides in soils in areas with differing...

results fifty four of 84 (64.2%) slides obtained from patients had positive results microscopically, while 79/84 (94%) of slides had positive results by fta card-nested-pcr. pcr and microscopy showed a sensitivity of 96.4% and 64.2% and specificity of 100% and 100%, respectively. interestingly, leishmania major as causative agent of zoonotic cl was identified in 100% and 90.7% of cl cases from ...

a new series of noncyclic ionophores containing two to four furan units (ia to iiib) i.e. 1,1-difurylethane (ia), 2,5-bis(methylfurfuryl)furan (iia) and 1,1’ ethyledenebis[5-(methylfurfuryl)furan] (iiia), 2,2-difurylpropane (ib), 2,5-bis (dimethylfurfuryl)furan(iib), 2,2’-isopropylidenebis[5-(dimethylfurfuryl)furan] (iiib) have been synthesized by the condensation of furan with acetaldehyde and...

with an increasing emphasis on security, automated personal identification based on biometrics has been receiving extensive attention. iris recognition, as an emerging biometric recognition approach, is becoming a very active topic in both research and practical applications. in general, a typical iris recognition system includes iris imaging, iris liveness detection, and recognition. this rese...

olive oil extraction methods and technology can affect the quality and quantity of the extracted oil. in this study, qualitative and quantitative parameters were investigated for oil extracted using a hammer crusher at 720 and 1450 rpm at 30°, 40°, 60° c mixing temperatures. the data were analyzed using a complete randomized block factorial design using spss software with three replications. th...

image analysis is an image processing technique that aims to extract features or information from images. image analysis in medicine has a special place because is a basis for disease diagnosis for physicians. electrophoresis is a laboratory separating technique. electrophoresis images are created during the electrophoresis process. serum protein and hemoglobin electrophoresis test are the most...

development and optimisation of fast, efficient, quantitative, economic and environmentally friendly analytical extraction techniques for the extraction clean up, and pre-concentration in the quantification of 16 usepa priority polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (pahs) in contaminated soils have been carried out. three different extraction methods (soxhlet, ultra sonication and mechanical shaking...

introduction: fructans are an important product of the industry of prebiotics. in addition to their interesting nutritional and health benefit properties, fructans are also used in food formulations for their techno-functional properties such as fat substitute, bulk agent, water retention. serish (eremurus spectabilis) belongs to the family of liliaceae and geographically distributed in the reg...
