background aflatoxins are one of the most potent toxic substances that occur naturally. nowadays extensive attention has been taken to their existence in food and environment, as there is the possibility of harm to humans following chronic exposure to extremely low levels via food chain. aflatoxin m1 (afm1) is a hepatic carcinogenic metabolite found in the milk of lactating animals fed with con...

background valproic acid is widely used as an anticonvulsant and mood-stabilizing drug in the treatment of epilepsy. determination of serum valproic acid is required in epilepsy therapy for efficient control of seizures. objectives in the present study, the gas chromatography method was applied to determine serum valproic acid and resulting data were compared with those obtained by high perform...

the efficacy of activation methods and coupling were studied in the context of performance in batch and fixed bed binding experiments utilizing cell culture fluids or blood plasma as feedstock. conclusions were drawn regarding selection of solid phase according to pore size, rigidity, ph stability, chemistry of derivation and activation, and gross concentration of immobilized ligand required fo...

background: a simple and sensitive high performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization mass spectrometry method has been evaluated for the assignment of clonidine hydrochloride in human plasma. methods: the mobile phase composed of acetonitrile-water 60:40 (v/v) and 0.2% formic acid 20 µl of sample was chromatographically analyzed using a repacked zorbax-xdb-ods c18 column (2.1 mmx30...

Our group has previously reported the isolation, partial characterisation, and application of a Galbeta1-3GalNAc- and IgA1-reactive lectin from the seeds of champedak (Artocarpus integer). In the present study, we have subjected the purified lectin to reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography and sequenced its subunits. Determination of the N-terminal sequence of the first 47 residue...

abstract: this paper is the first study on the impact of ambient temperature on the electrical characteristics and high frequency performances of double gate armchair graphene nanoribbon field effect transistor (gnrfet). the results illustrate that the gnrfet under high temperature (ht-gnrfet) has the highest cut-off frequency, lowest sub-threshold swing, lowest intrinsic delay and power delay ...

conclusions this method could be feasibly used for purification of large quantities of allicin from garlic extract. results semi-preparative hplc yielded a distinct peak with a retention time of 12.28 minutes. the purity (≥ 95%) and biological activity (p > 0.05) of purified allicin were comparable to the standard allicin. purified allicin produced same peak areas compared to the standard allic...
