A gas chromatography mass spectrometry with spike calibration curve method was used to quantify three carbamate pesticides residue in cooked white rice and to estimate the reduction percentage of the cooking process duration. The selected pesticides are three carbamate pesticides including carbaryl and pirimicarb that their MRL is issued by “The Institute of Standards of Iran” and propoxur whic...

This research reports a validated multi-residue method based on gas chromatography coupled mass spectrometry technique for analysis of 24 Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) in traditional and semi-industrial Taftoon bread using QuEChERS sample preparation. Matrix effect studies were performed by comparing the slopes of solvent based standard calibration curves and spiked calibration curves...

in this study, 60 composite samples of dill and onion from two different cultivated areas in khozestan province, iran, were collected and analyzed for the presence and determination of lead and cadmium by flame atomic absorption spectrometry. samples were burned according to aoac at 450 °c, and the residue was dissolved in nitric acid. lead and cadmium contents were determined using calibration...

A reliable, rapid and accurate method based on spiked calibration curves and direct sample introduction was developed for determination of 17 pesticide residues in rice by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry single quadrupole selected ion monitoring GC/MS-SQ-SIM. Sample preparation is based on extraction with acetonitrile without clean up. The use of spiked calibration curves for constructing ...

Cucumber is one of the main vegetables in Iranian food basket. A wide range of pesticides are used for crops protection during the cultivation of vegetables such as cucumber due to heavy pest infestation. Analysis of pesticide residues in food and other environmental commodities have become essential requirement for consumers, producers, and food quality control authorities. This study was aime...

Combination of solid-phase microextraction with gas chromatography enables rapid, repeated analysis of organic compounds in water. Fluazifop-p-butyl (FPB) (propanoic acid 2-[4-[[5-(trifluoromethyl)-2-pyridinyl]oxy]phenoxy] butyl ester) is the active substance in the herbicide Fusilade. Samples of distilled water were spiked with FPB in the laboratory and the analyte was isolated from the water ...

A rapid and simple high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method with a UV detection (241 nm) was developed and validated for estimation of eplerenone from spiked human plasma. The analyte and the internal standard (valdecoxib) were extracted with a mixture of dichloromethane and diethyl ether. The chromatographic separation was performed on a HiQSil C-18HS column (250 mm×4.6 mm, 5 μm) w...

hot-wire spirometer uses a constant temperature anemometer (cta) for its operation. the working principle of cta, used for the measurement of fluid velocity and flow turbulence, is based on convective heat transfer from a hot-wire sensor to a fluid being measured. the calibration curve of a cta is nonlinear and cannot be easily extrapolated beyond its calibration range. therefore, a method for ...
