Extraction and determination of naproxen from human plasma were performed using Vortex-Assisted Inverted Dispersive Liquid-Liquid MicroExtraction (VA−IDLLME) and High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). The parameters affecting extraction recovery such as type and volume of extraction and disperser solvents, pH of sample solution, stirring rate, extraction time and salt addition were ...

Direct analysis of samples, regardless their origin, is desirable although for the majority of cases unfeasible on account of the complexity of the sample matrix, inadequate concentration of the target analytes, or even incompatibility with the detector. In these cases, a sample pretreatment step is required for interference removal and analytes separation/preconcentration. Despite valuable adv...

the lamiaceae family consists of a broad spectrum of medicinal plants involving marrubium l. genus. regarding the diverse pharmaceutical uses of the plants belonging to this genus, they can be considered as proper alternatives for chemical drugs having harmful effects. the present work aims to identify and characterize chemical compositions of the essential oils and volatiles from the aerial pa...

This work describes the development of an HPLC-FLD methodology for separation five fluoroquinolones (ciprofloxacin, enrofloxacin, sarafloxacin, norfloxacin and levofloxacin) followed by optimization DLLME process clean-up preconcentration enrofloxacin in samples seawater river water. The mobile phase used chromatographic consisted methanol: phosphate buffer (NaHPO4 H2O 0.04 M pH 3 with H3PO4 85...

Triazole fungicides are systemic fungicides applied to protect crops from fungus infections. Its use must be controlled due to the potential harmful effects in environment and human health. Before determination with a chromatographic system, analyte must be isolated and preconcentrated with an extraction step. This review presents the most used microextraction techniques for those compounds in ...

Metal-assisted chemical etching (MACE) offers an inexpensive, massively parallel fabrication process for producing silicon nanowires (SiNWs). These nanowires can possess a degree of porosity depending on etch conditions. Because the porosity is often spatially inhomogeneous, there is a need to better understand its nature if applications exploiting the porosity are to be pursued. Here, the reso...

Solvent extraction remains one of the fundamental sample preparation techniques in the analysis of environmental solid samples, but organic solvents are toxic and environmentally harmful, therefore one of the possible greening directions is its miniaturization. The present review covers the relevant research from the field of application of microextraction to the sample preparation of environme...

2 Headspace sampling for gas chromatographic (GC) analysis has many advantages, the most important of which is the elimination of many interferences from the sample matrix. In addition to the standard methods for headspace sampling, the technique of solid-phase microextraction (SPME) has found wide acceptance because it is simple and inexpensive. More recently, single-drop microextraction (SDME...

A simple and environmentally friendly surfactant-assisted microextraction method combined with high-performance liquid chromatography fluorescence detection was developed for the determination of six fluoroquinolones in chicken livers. In method, analytes were transported into hydrophobic extraction by ionic nonionic surfactants. Three different surfactants studied this purpose, cationic Methyl...
