In this study, Malvasylvestris flower extract (MFE) was used as a corrosion inhibitor for carbon steel in 1 M HCl solution. Malvasylvestris extract was analyzed by gas chromatography coupled with a mass spectrometry detector (GC-MS). Potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) studies revealed that the inhibition efficiency increases with increasing MFE concent...

Although pesticides are frequently used for agriculture in the Galapagos Islands (Ecuador), there are, to date, no investigations of pesticide occurrences its coastal waters. We examined presence residues waters urban areas two islands archipelago using a repeated sampling design. Quantification was performed by solid-phase extraction, followed chemical analysis liquid chromatography-tandem mas...

This study provides a review of methods used in the determination organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) ginseng and compares effectiveness three extraction (Quick, Easy, Cheap, Effective, Rugged, Safe (QuEChERS), modified QuEChERS Fast Pesticide Extraction (FaPEx)) analyses 20 OCPs root samples. For each method, sample mass, solvent volume sorbent mass were varied to identify optimum combination eff...

The present study was aimed to validate an analytical method for the quantification of 19 organochlorine and 2 synthetic pyrethroid pesticide residues in water samples using modified quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged safe (QuEChERS) extraction Gas Chromatography coupled with Electron Capture Detector (ECD). selected were determined by in-house validated method. evaluating accuracy, precisio...

Pesticide residue analysis in medicinal herbs is a challenging task because of the matrix effect and its influence on quantitative despite continuous development several new analytical methods instrumentations. In this study, modified QuEChERS method was developed for indoxacarb by using conventional instrument, gas chromatography micro-electron-capture-detector (GC–μECD), comparing it with chr...

Disopyramide is determined in serum by gas chromatography with a nitrogen-selective detector, by liquid chromatography, and by gas chromatography--mass spectrometry. Comparable results are obtained with the three techniques, with a within-run and between-run precision of 5 to 10% (coefficient of variation). Least-squares analysis of data on patients' sera, analyzed first by gas chromatography (...

A novel method is presented for transesterification of fatty acid esters in phospholipids and triglycerides to benzyl esters while simultaneously recovering free fatty acids as methyl esters. Transesterification is catalyzed by 0.2 M (m-trifluoromethyl phenyl)trimethyl ammonium hydroxide in methylene chloride, 10% (v/v) benzyl alcohol, and 1% (w/v) potassium tert-butoxide, and is complete in 30...
