Foodstuffs analysis is very important due to population growth and increasing consumer demand for safety and nutritional excellence. The Analysis of different compounds in foodstuffs is so difficult without using sample preparation techniques. Traditional techniques require large amounts of toxic organic solvents. As a result, they are not only expensive but also environmentally unfriendly and ...

2 Introduction An important part of any analytical process is sample preparation, which involves isolation and preconcentration of various analytes of interest.1 Liquid–liquid extraction (LLE) is one of the oldest pretreatment procedures and because of its simplicity and low cost is commonly used. However, conventional LLE requires large volumes of high-purity solvents, which are often expensiv...

Rapid solidification experiments have been performed on an Ni-25.3 at.% Si alloy using drop tube techniques. The dominant phase formed is found to be Ni25Si9, with Ni31Si12 and く1-Ni3Si also being present. SEM and TEM analysis revealed a novel eutectic structure consisting of lamellar of metastable Ni25Si9 and く1-Ni3Si, the width of these being around 200 nm and 20 nm respectively. This result ...

since solid-phase and liquid-phase microextraction (spme and lpme) were introduced, as effective solvent-free methods, many efforts have been made to improve their modes and applications. however, due to limitations with sensitivity and efficiency, researchers have focused on improving the performance of their basic primary modes. in this way, in recent years, different methods such as ultrason...

an oral sustained-release floating tablet formulation of metformin hcl was designed and developed. effervescence and swelling properties were attributed on the developed tablets by sodium bicarbonate and hpmc-peo polymer combination, respectively. tablet composition was optimized by response surface methodology (rsm). seventeen (17) trial formulations were analyzed according to box-behnken desi...

in this work, an environmentally friendly sample pre-treatment method, ultrasound assisted surfactant enhanced emulsification microextraction (uaseme) followed with spectrofluorimetry was performed for determination of oxadiazon residues in water samples. after the determination of the most suitable extraction solvent and its volume, other parameters such as type and concentration of surfactant...
