Conducting multiphase reactions in micro-reactors is a promising strategy for intensifying chemical and biochemical processes. A major unresolved challenge is to exploit the considerable benefits offered by micro-scale operation for industrial scale throughputs by numbering-up whilst retaining the underlying advantageous flow characteristics of the single channel system in multiple parallel cha...

The study of colour and colour precursors in cane sugar has been an important research area at Sugar Processing Research Institute for many years. Previous studies on isolating colourant precursors have relied on various liquid-liquid extraction procedures, time consuming methods requiring large amounts of sample and solvent. Four methods were examined for the identification of raw sugar colour...

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...

Dispersive Liquid-Liquid Microextraction / Thermal Lens Microscopy (DLLME/TLM) was developed as a new combination method for preconcentration and determination of Cd. Thermal Lens Microscopy is suitable for the determination of analyte after DLLME because of the low volume of the remained phase after DLLME and increasing of the enhancement factor for the nonpolar organic solvents. Some effe...

Background:Extraction of drugs is one of the biggest concerns and the most important part of preparation and determination in forensic medicine. The lack of an easy, efficient and fast extraction method is the most important and most difficult problem despite the development of forensic centers and their being equipped with new diagnostic devices. In the present study, a comparison was conducte...

acetonitrile used as a solvent in manufactures and affects to central nervous system from inhalation exposure. the aim of this study was to develop a micro-solid phase extraction method for  the determination of acetonitrile in the air matrix. the sampling was performed with a small diameter fused silica fiber coated with a thin film of stationary phase and was subsequently desorbed and analyze...

In this paper, a new simple and effective method based on dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction procedure is proposed for rapid and simultaneous separation and preconcentration of ultra trace amounts of benzene, toluene, ethyl benzene and xylenes (BTEX) in non-alcoholic Beer samples. In this experiment, a glass syringe was used as extraction unit. With this simple configuration, the centrifu...

In this research, a highly sensitive, selective, rapid and simple micro-funnel magnetic stirringassisted liquid–liquid microextraction (MF-MSA-LLME) method combined with flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS) was introduced for the preconcentration, extraction, and measurement of trace amounts of silver ion. In this method 1-(2–Pyridylazo)-2-naphthol (PAN) and 1-octanol were used as chelat...

recently, 6-(2-naphthyl)-2, 3-dihydro-as-triazine-3-thione (ndtt) was synthesized in laboratory and used successfully for the spectrophotometric determination of nanogram levels of cu2+ in aqueous solution. this reagent forms a specific red complex with cu2+ ions after the extraction by chloroform at alkaline ph. the absorption of the complex in the uv region (313 nm) is about 8 times as strong...
