In this study, ultrasonic-assisted matrix solid-phase dispersion (UA-MSPD) as a new sample preparation method for natural product analysis was developed. Influential parameters of the UA-MSPD method was optimized using oleuropein content of olive leaves as a model analyte. Main parameters of the proposed technique such as ultrasonic time, amplitude and pulse, sorbent material, the ratio of samp...

Carbon nano-tube (CNT) reinforced metal matrix nano-composites have attracted a great deal of attention in recent years due to the outstanding physical and mechanical properties of CNTs. However, utilizing CNT as reinforcement for alloy matrixes has not been studies systematically and is still a challenging issue. In the present study, Cu80Fe20/10CNT nanocomposite was synthesized by mechanical ...

(2015) Combination of (M)DSC and surface analysis to study the phase behaviour and drug distribution of ternary solid dispersions. The Nottingham ePrints service makes this work by researchers of the University of Nottingham available open access under the following conditions. A note on versions: The version presented here may differ from the published version or from the version of record. If...

The results form the application of the method of homogenization for the transport of solute in a porous medium with microscale pores and the rock matrix are applied to examine the dispersion characteristics of a solute in a porous rock matrix with parallel fractures including the retardation in the rock matrix and the decay effects. By using the solutions to a boundary value problem the effect...

A simple and effective extraction method based on matrix solid-phase dispersion (MSPD) was developed to determine thirteen pyrethroid insecticide residues in goat tissues (liver, kidney, muscle and heart) and milk using gas chromatography electron ionization mass spectrometry method (GC-MS). The samples were pre-concentrated using C18 packing material (dispersion adsorbent), followed by clean u...

The purpose of this study is to develop and characterize the nature of a solid dispersion system of nifedipine in a polymer matrix consisting of PVP K30 and poloxamer 407. Dispersions consist of drug, polymeric carrier and surfactant carrier. Binary solid dispersions consisting of nifedipine and PVP K30 were developed by solvent evaporation method. Poloxamer 407, surfactant carrier was incorpor...

A new adaptation based on matrix solid phase dispersion of tissue for the subsequent isolation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons was developed and used for extractions of Gulf menhaden caught during the summer of 2011. Many Matrix Solid Phase Dispersion (MSPD) methods require specific cartridges and other clean-up materials in order to achieve proper extraction. For this study, the tissues we...
