this study propose a new analytical protocol for the determination of benzene, xylene, toluene and styrene in water samples using homogeneous liquid-liquid microextraction via flotation assistance (hllme-fa) technique followed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (gc-ms). in this research, a special extraction cell was designed to facilitate collection of the low-density solvent extraction. ...

Ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) was evaluated as a simpler and more effective alternative to conventional extraction methods for the isolation of curcuminoids from turmeric plant rhizomes. The turmeric samples were extracted under indirect sonication in an ultrasonic bath, and compared with the conventional methods. It was found that the yield of ultrasound-assisted extraction was approxim...

New technologies have risen into popularity causing the Liquid membrane techniques to evolve over other separation due its high selectivity and recovery, increased fluxes, reduced investment operating cost. This work focuses on extracting Methylene Blue (MB), a cationic dye using simple BLM technique from aqueous phase. It combines extraction stripping in single unit operation. The feed phase w...

The poor control of the adhesion of TiO2 nanotubes (TNTs) layers to a non-anodized titanium (Ti) substrate has limited their widespread application, because the stripping mechanism has not yet been revealed. Here, we report a novel method to control the detachment of TNTs by post-treatment of the as-fabricated samples in protic and aprotic solvents with different polarities. Post-treatment usin...

urinary 1-hydroxypyrene is frequently used as a major metabolite and biological indicator of the overall exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. in this study, solid phase extraction was appropriately conditioned with regard to sample ph, sample concentration, loading flow rate, elution solvent, washing solvent, sample volume and sorbent mass. octadecyl silica cartridge (c18) was used as ...

The demand for palladium (Pd) has increased and this made it necessary to recover pure Pd from diverse secondary resources. To the small amount of Pd(II) present in spent electroplating solutions, is concentrated by cementation with zinc metal. In work, a hydrometallurgical process consisting leaching solvent extraction was developed cemented Pd. behavior Zn(II) synthetic HCl solution commercia...

background: histamine is a food-borne chemical hazard which causes scombroid poisoning. the efficiency of histamine recovery from fish is greatly influenced by selection of an appropriate extraction solvent. hence, in this study the efficiency of different extraction solvents on recovery of histamine from fresh, frozen and canned fish was evaluated. methods: fresh, frozen and canned rainbow tro...

Background & Aim: Sesame is one of the oldest cultivated plants in the world and is one of the oldest oily products used by humans. Sesame oil is an important industrial, oral and medicinal oil. Today, the use of ultrasound has grown significantly due to its effects on food storage and processing. Experimental: In this research, the response level model w...
