A simple, rapid, and sensitive method for the detection of posaconazole using dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME) coupled to surface-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometric detection (SALDI/MS) was developed. After the DLLME, posaconazole was detected using SALDI/MS with colloidal gold and α-cyano-4-hydroxycinnamic acid (CHCA) as the co-matrix. Under optimal extract...

We report experimental results on the kinetics of the electron-beam-induced reduction of WO, by in situ high-resolution electron microscopy. Electron-beam irradiation of WO, results in complete reduction to W. The process is surfaceinitiated through desorption of oxygen from the crystal surface, and the subsequent growth of tungsten was found to be a diffusion-controlled process. The damage rat...

bioremediation of heavy metals remains a major challenge in environmental biotechnology. biosorption is a novel technique for decreasing metal ion content in the waste water. biosorption experiments for cu (ii) were investigated in this study using bacteria isolated from the industrial effluent. the results showed that the dead cells of pseudomonas sp. were an efficient adsorbent of cu (ii). fo...

the equilibrium moisture content is an important parameter for several post-harvesting operations for pistachio nuts, such as drying processes and storage. in this re-search the adsorption and desorption equilibrium moisture content were determined for two major varieties of iranian pistachios at 11 to 85 percent relative humidities and a con-stant temperature of 50°c. a significant hysteresis ...

abstractbackground and objectives:the phosphorus is second limiting nutrient in soil for crop production after nitrogen. mobility and availability of phosphorus (p) in soils is affected by phosphorus desorption characteristics. information about the effect of organic matter on kinetics and thermodynamics of p desorption in calcareous soils of east azerbaijan province is limited. the objective o...

introduction: nowadays,  considerable developments  in  the field  of  radiotherapy have  been  achieved.  they  include  the  advances  made  in  the  equipments  and  treatment  planning  techniques  which  require  highly complex calculations. such achievements have made it possible to treat cancer patients not only  with  higher  radiation  dose  but  also  with  higher  precision  and  con...

A method for estimating thermal desorption curves and desorption efficiencies of organic solvents from activated carbon was developed for the determination of adsorbed solvent by thermal desorption method, and the estimated values were compared with the experimental values. The Freundlich or the Langmuir isotherm was assumed in obtaining the solution. Thermal desorption experiments were conduct...

An improved version of the manometric apparatus and its procedures for measuring excess sorption of supercritical carbon dioxide are presented in detail with a comprehensive error analysis. An improved manometric apparatus is necessary for accurate excess sorption measurements with supercritical carbon dioxide due to the difficulties associated with the high sensitivity of density for pressure ...

Direct D atom desorption, as well as associative desorption of D(2) molecules are observed in thermal desorption from D atoms chemisorbed on a C(0001) surface by combining laser induced T-jumps with resonance enhanced multiphoton ionization detection. Bleaching curves suggest that different classes of chemisorbed D atom clusters are present on the initial surface. The energy resolved atomic des...

Pyrethroid insecticides have been widely detected in sediments at concentrations that can cause toxicity to aquatic organisms. Desorption rates play an important role in determining the bioavailability of hydrophobic organic compounds, such as pyrethroids, because these compounds are more likely to be sorbed to solids in the environment, and times to reach sorptive equilibrium can be long. In t...
