A simple and efficient homogenous liquid-liquid extraction method performed in a narrow tube combined with dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction method has been presented for the simultaneous determination of two antiepileptic drugs in urine followed by gas chromatography with flame ionization detection. In this method, a mixture of acetonitrile and urine sample (homogenous solution) is load...

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...

since solid-phase and liquid-phase microextraction (spme and lpme) were introduced, as effective solvent-free methods, many efforts have been made to improve their modes and applications. however, due to limitations with sensitivity and efficiency, researchers have focused on improving the performance of their basic primary modes. in this way, in recent years, different methods such as ultrason...

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...

A solid bar microextraction (SBME) method containing sorbent materials 2 mg in the lumen of a porous hollow fiber membrane 2.5 cm for the extraction of carbamazepine, diclofenac and ibuprofen from river water samples is described. The desorbed analytes were analyzed using reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection. In order to achieve optimum performance, s...

In the present study, an ultrasound-assisted emulsification microextraction based on solidification floating organic drop method is described for preconcentration of trace amounts of Mn (II). 2-(5-Bromo-2-pyridylazo)-5 diethylaminophenol was added to a solution of Mn(+2) at ph = 10.0. After this, 1-undecanol was added to the solution as an extraction solvent, and solution was stirred. Several f...

Abstract 2-Acetyl-1-pyrroline (2-AP) has been widely reported as a key contributor to the popcorn-like aroma of fragrant rice (Oryza sativa). To gain greater understanding its contribution in both and non-fragrant rice, sensory profiling was conducted with trained panel examine properties six boiled samples, three varieties. The intensity popcorn note an orthonasal odour, retronasal flavour aft...
