introduction: the mechanism of action and metabolism of clozapine, a complex drug used in psychopharmacology, is not completely understood. the effects of this compound in human body are related to some interactions with serotonin and dopamine neurotransmitter receptors. to further elucidate the mechanism of action and to support ongoing drug metabolism studies, [14c] clozapine with suitable ra...

The chromatographic baseline was converted to power spectrum by Fourier transform to show the frequency dependence of noise. The spectral analysis of chromatographic baseline was made under various experimental conditions for high-performance liquid chromatography with electrochemical detection (HPLC-ECD). From the spectral analysis, it was found easily that a system using a small stroke pump a...

a user-friendly and inexpensive ionic liquid-based single-drop microextraction (il-sdme) method was developed to preconcentrate trace amounts of aminophenol isomers (aps) from human urine, hair dye and water samples prior to analysis by high performance liquid chromatography-ultraviolet spectrophotometry detection (hplc-uv). under optimum conditions (i.e., 3.5 µl of 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium ...

This study developed an acid hydrolysis coupled to a solid-phase microextraction method employing a semi-microcolumn liquid chromatography system, instead of enzyme hydrolysis with solid-phase extraction for the pretreatment of human urine samples, to detect urinary 1-hydroxypyrene (1-OHP). The complete separation and detection of urinary 1-hydroxyprene was performed using a high-performance li...

Background and Objectives: Furfural (F) and hydroxymethyl furfural (HMF) are cyclic aldehydes, which are formed during the heat processing of foods. These chemical contaminants have received much attention due to their suspected health hazards and heat damage indicators. The aim of the present study was extraction and determination of F and HMF in baby-foods using dispersive liquid-liquid micro...
