Sediment samples from 25 sites in 17 rivers of the Pantanal (Brazil) were analyzed with the objective of evaluating pesticide contamination in sediments. Samples were extracted with an acetone, ethylacetate, and water mixture 2:2:1 (v/v/v). The extract was purified by flash chromatography with aluminum oxide and florisil. A multiresidue gas chromatography-mass spectrometry method was applied to...

Characterization of secondary metabolites and cytotoxic testing Haliclona sp. against T47D breast cancer cells were conducted in this study. The objective was to assess the cytotoxicity identify functional groups involved. research methods employed included maceration, partitioning, phytochemical testing, toxicity using BSLT method, separation through flash column chromatography (FCC), MTT char...

vasomotor hot flash is the most common and distressful complication of menopausal women. its treatment is the most frequent clinical challenge. as a result, an effective and harmless therapy is needed. this double-blind controlled clinical trial was conducted to determine the effects of licorice roots on the relief and recurrence of hot flash in menopausal women referring to the healthcare cent...

For some of the EOS models the dimension of equilibrium problem can be reduced. Stability and difficulties in implementation are among the problems of flash calculation. In this work, a new reduction technique is presented to prepare a reduced number of equilibrium equations. Afterwards, a number of appropriate solution variables are selected for the prepared equation system to solve the equati...

Dioctanoylthiophosphatidylcholine, a racemic thiophosphate analog of L-alpha-dioctanoylphosphatidylcholine, has been synthesized and isolated by flash chromatography. In contrast with the didecanoylthiophosphatidylcholine synthesized previously, the analog is easily dispersed on sonication in aqueous media and is rapidly hydrolyzed to produce a free thiol group in the presence of the extracellu...

Two new glyceroglycolipids as well as three known ones were isolated from the glyceroglycolipids molecular species obtained from two less polar fractions of the MeOH extract of the plant Euphorbia nicaeensis All. using normal and reversed phase column flash chromatography. The structures of the isolated glyceroglycolipids were determined on the basis of chemical and spectroscopic evidences. Two...

The title compound, C(6)H(6)Cl(2)N(4)O(2), was prepared by the nucleophilic substitution of 2,4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazine by glycine methyl ester hydro-chloride, and was isolated from the reaction by using flash chromatography. The crystal structure at 150 K reveals the presence two crystallographically independent mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit which differ in the orientation of the pendan...

A novel and simple interface for capillary gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) was developed using a piece of deactivated stainless-steel tubing. This interface eliminated the need to vent the MS ion source when changing columns. Various chromatographic performance indicators, such as inertness, and thermal and chemical stability, were confirmed to be unaffected by using this interfa...
