plants are rich source of phenolic compounds (phenolic acids, flavonoids and tannins) that are most important natural antioxidants. in the present study two ultrasonic methods including probe and bath were used for the extraction of phenolic and flavonoid compounds from celtis australis. the effects of different extraction time including 30, 60 and 90 min (bath method) and 5, 10 and 20 min (pro...

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...

Colloidal nanodispersion of Iron Yttrium Garnet has been preparedbymixing the two ternary mixture of Triton X-100 (surfactant), n-heptane and aqueous solution that differing only in the aqueous phase.Ethanolwas added as cosurfactant and mixed them by ultrasound bath. By mixing these twomicroemulsions, Iron Yttrium garnet (Y3 Fe5 O12) nanodispersionwas obtained. Solids were settled by centrifuge...

the aim of this research was to use osmosis-ultrasound compound pre-treatment and studying the time of drying and the potentiality to rehydration in dried samples of kiwi fruit (hayvard variety). the samples were drained in three timed phases, 10, 20 and 30 minutes in room temperature in 30, 50 and 70 bx in ultrasound bath osmosis solutions. the results of drying time showed that by decreasing ...

Drying is one of the widely used methods of food preservation and it is a sensitive food processing operation due to undesirable changes in the quality of dried product. In this study the effect of osmotic dyhedration and ultrasound pretreatment prior to convective drying on quality properties of apple slices was investigated. Apple slices were pretreated by osmotic dehydration in two concentra...

Ultrasound-stimulated microbubbles (MBs) were demonstrated to enhance cell kill from hyperthermia. Definity MBs were injected into wells containing 4T1 cells in culture media and scanned with 1-MHz ultrasound, an exposure duration of 30 s and a negative pressure of 0.5 or 1.3 MPa. Some cell samples were placed in a water bath heated to 42 °C for 5 min. Cell death was quantified. When combining ...

mixed-addenda vanadium substituted polyoxometalate supported on anatase tio2 crushed nano leaf was synthesized by an unusual reaction with titanium tetraisopropoxide at 100 ºc via sol–gel method under oil-bath condition. the materials characterized by xrd, tem,  ir and uv–vis  techniques.  in  the  present  work,  efficient  oxidative  of  thiols  with  polyoxometalate-tio2/hydrogen  peroxide  ...
