an air–assisted liquid–liquid microextraction method for the extraction and preconcentration of trace amounts of some synthetic phenolic antioxidants in biological fluids followed by their determination by gas chromatography–flame ionization detection has been reported. in this method the target analytes are extracted into a few microliters of carbon tetrachloride (extraction solvent) from an a...

background: a new microextraction method named dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (dllme) for determination of chloroform in pool water and blood of swimmers after swimming is described. methods: this method was performed based on coupling dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (dllme) with gas chromatog­raphy-mass spectrometry (gc-ms). methanol and trichloroethylenes were used as the d...

terials, operated in a pressure-driven mode, plotted as a function of inverse temperature. This Rgure is intended to give some appreciation of the Suxes that are attainable; however, they are not normalized to a given partial pressure gradient or thickness of membrane, and thus the Suxes are not directly comparable. Taking a value of between 10 and 100 L m 2 min 1 as the level of oxygen Sux nee...

The chromatographic behavior of cortisol and cortisone using a micellar medium of sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) as surfactant, a Hypersil C18 (150- x 3.2-mm i.d., 5 microm) column, a flow rate of 0.5 mL/min, and UV absorbance detection at 245 nm is described. The effect of several organic modifiers and the surfactant concentration on the separation is studied. A mobile phase of 18 mM SDS and 8....

A simple method for the simultaneous determination of hippuric acid and benzoic acid in urine using reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography was described. Chromatography was performed on a Nova-Pak C18 (3.9 x 150 mm) column with a mobile phase of mixed solution methanol: water: acetic acid (20:80:0.2) and UV detection at 254 nm. The calibration curve was linear within concentratio...

We use complementary experiments—proton NMR diffusometry and relaxometry, deuterium NMR lineshapes, and rheometry—to construct a comprehensive picture of the microscopic structure of a mixed-surfactant wormlike micellar system composed of a zwitterionic surfactant and an anionic surfactant in brine. In this system, at some surfactant concentrations, the time for micellar breaking and recombinat...

Micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC) was developed as a method for quantitative determination of gibberellic acid (GA3) in fermentation broth and commercial products, using 25 mM disodium tetraborate as a buffer at pH 9.2 and 100 mM sodium dodecyl sulfate as a micellar phase. The baseline resolution (Rs of GA3 from other compounds in fermentation broth was achieved with Rs > 2.5. The a...

The electrophoretic separation of electrically neutral benzodiazepines (BZDs) can be achieved by micellar electrokinetic chromatograpy (MEKC). The cyclodextrin (CD)-modified micellar electrokinetic chromatography separation of eight of the most frequently used BZD was obtained within 15 minutes at + 25 kV on a 64.5 cm x 50 μm I.D. silica capillary at 25C, using a 25 mM sodium tetraborate-50 mM ...

The principal advantage of the use of Shopl'skii effect (low temperature spectrum) is that spectral sharpening occurs both in absorption and emission. However, thus far using the technique of capillary electrophoresis/low temperature fluorescence spectroscopy (CE/LTFS) either at 77 or 4.2 K remains difficult to obtain an on-line spectrum, if the analyte is present at low concentration. This pap...
