conclusions examination of the fasting lipid profile has clinical importance in predicting the efficacy of peg-ifn-α-2b plus rbv combination therapy for patients with hcv g1b even after the discovery of the il28 genotype as a potent predictive factor. objectives to re-examine the significance of lipoprotein profiles on virological response to peg-ifn plus rbv combination therapy in patients wit...

background: aflatoxin m1 (afm1) is a toxic compound that could be found in milk and dairy products. afm1 is the principle hydroxylated derivative of aflatoxin b1 (afb1), formed in liver and excreted into the milk in the mammary glands of both human and lactating animals that have been fed with afb1 contaminated diet. to the best of our knowledge, there is no report on stability of afm1 during p...

A simple and efficient homogenous liquid-liquid extraction method performed in a narrow tube combined with dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction method has been presented for the simultaneous determination of two antiepileptic drugs in urine followed by gas chromatography with flame ionization detection. In this method, a mixture of acetonitrile and urine sample (homogenous solution) is load...

Many steroid hormones can be considered as potential biomarkers and their determination in body fluids can create opportunities for the rapid diagnosis of many diseases and disorders of the human body. Most existing methods for the determination of steroids are usually time- and labor-consuming and quite costly. Therefore, the aim of analytical laboratories is to develop a new, relatively low-c...

The mixed micellization of adiphenine hydrochloride (ADP) with 1-decyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride (C10mim.Cl), was investigated at different mole fractions and temperatures by surface tension measurements. The synergistic behavior (i.e., non-ideal behavior) for binary mixtures was explained by the deviation of critical micelle concentration (cmc) from ideal critical micelle concentration (cmc...

We report on the detection of micellar growth in anionic, cationic, and catanionic surfactant systems using a novel surfactant type fluorescence probe, sodium 12-(N-dansyl)amino-dodecanate (12-DAN-ADA). The fluorescent group was incorporated in the tail of the surfactant which tethers the fluorescent group deep inside the apolar micellar cores. The fluorescence anisotropy of 12-DAN-ADA was foun...

The ultrafast vibrational dynamics of HDO:D(2)O ice at 180 K in anionic reverse micelles is studied by midinfrared femtosecond pump-probe spectroscopy. Solutions containing reverse micelles are cooled to low temperatures by a fast-freezing procedure. The heating dynamics of the micellar solutions is studied to characterize the micellar structure. Small reverse micelles with a water content up t...

A simple and green ultra-high-performance micellar liquid chromatography (MLC) method was developed here, comparing Tween 20 40 for the first time as only mobile phase modifiers with a C18 column. Its application to separation of nine hydroxycinnamic acid (HCA) derivatives (cinnamic, caffeic, ferulic, sinapic, o-, m-, p-coumaric, 3,4-dihydroxyhydrocinnamic, chlorogenic acids) made, due their im...
