Background & Aim: Essential oils are isolated from different sections of plants such as flowers, seeds, leaves, stems and roots. Essential oils are applied extensively in producing of perfumes, cosmetics, foods, beverages and confectioneries and as ingredients of disinfectants and insecticides. Experimental: Essential oil are obtained by several isolation methods, such as hydrodistillation (HD...

Single phase Eu doped GdMnO3 ceramics were prepared using solid state reaction route. Several different characterization techniques were used to investigate the structural and magnetic properties of the samples, including X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDX) and Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM). All samples indicated single p...

A very simple, rapid and sensitive dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME) followed by gas chromatography and flame ionization detection (GC-FID) was developed for the determination of phenol and carvacrol in honey samples. A mixture of 100 µl dichloromethane (extraction solvent) and 0.5 ml acetonitrile (disperser solvent) was rapidly injected into sample solution. Thereby a cloudy sol...

OBJECTIVE(S) The present study reports the development and validation of a sensitive and rapid extraction method beside high performance liquid chromatographic method for the determination of crocetin in human serum. MATERIALS AND METHODS The HPLC method was carried out by using a C18 reversed-phase column and a mobile phase composed of methanol/water/acetic acid (85:14.5:0.5 v/v/v) at the fl...

Solid phase extraction (SPE) or liquid-solid extraction is poplar and growing techniques that areused to sample preparation for analysis. Metal nanoparticles have been studied for decades, and this is due to the properties that these materials do not have in bulk state. In nanoscale materials, the numbers of surface atoms is high and hence, have significant surface effects. A novel, simpl...

This article presents the method of extraction-preconcentration of Lead, Cadmium, and Nickel ions from food samples using the Ghezeljeh montmorillonite nanoclay (Geleh-Sar-Shoor) as a new native adsorbent in batch single component systems. The extractionpreconcentration of heavy metals were carried out by applying the solid phase extraction (SPE) method followed by atomic absorption spectroscop...

Biological sample pretreatment is an important step in biological sample analysis. Due to the diversity of biological matrices, the analysis of target substances in these samples presents significant challenges to sample processing. To meet these emerging demands on biopharmaceutical analysis, this paper summarizes several new techniques of on-line biological sample processing: solid phase extr...
