Recently, magnetic split-flow thin (SPLITT) fractionation has been developed to separate macromolecules, colloids, cells and particles. However, the previous theory, developed for an infinitely long channel, needs to be improved to consider the flow transit regimes at both inlet and outlet. In this paper, we describe a new approach to optimising flow-rates for particle separation which consider...

Total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy (TIRFM) is an optical technique that allows imaging of a thin layer of the sample with a thickness of about 100-200 nm. It is used in science of cell biology to study cellular processes, especially near the membranes of living cells. This method is based on the total internal reflection phenomenon, where the evanescent wave is generated in the l...

In this research, modification on the ultrafiltration (UF) membrane by synthesis of a thin layer of polyamide selective layer was designed for high performances of forward osmosis (FO) water treatment. Two monomers, m-Phenylenediamine (MPD) and Trimesoyl chloride (TMC) with different concentrations of MPD (2.0% w/v and 1.0% w/v) were reacted with TMC (0.15% w/v) for interfacial polymerization (...

Simple and rapid thin-layer chromatographic methods, using heel or finger-tip blood, are describedthat are suitable for screening for inborn errors of amino acid metabolism. Serum is chromatographed without deproteinizing. A variation of this method utilizes blood impregnated on paper discs for chromatography. These methods are much faster, more sensitive, and provide better resolutionof amino ...

a high performance liquid chromatography method was studied for determination of 18 ?-glycyrrhetinic acid in glycyrrhiza glabra l. (licorice) extract. the operating condition were c-18 reversed phase column (vp-ods, (250×4.6 mm, 5 mm)) at room temperature, acetonitril/phosphoric acid (3/1) as mobile phase, at flow rate of 0.6ml/min (0-8min), 0.4ml/min (8-20min) and uv detection at 230 nm. the r...

in the present study, an oxidative conversion of non-fluorescent dichlorofluoroscein (ldcf) to fluorescent dichlorofluoroscein (dcf) was used for detection of antioxidant properties of plant extracts. the rate of the reaction was followed by monitoring the formation of dcf as a function of time. the antioxidant assay was carried out for different concentrations of gallic acid, salvia mirzayanii...
