2-Phenylethanol (PEA) is a commercial flavor and fragrance compound, with a rose-like odor, used in the cosmetics and food industries. Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains produce PEA in a growth-associated manner but are prone to product inhibition, resulting in low production yields. The aim of this study was to use immiscible ionic liquids (ILs) in a biphasic system to enhance the PEA concentrat...

In this study, we present a new concept in chemically stabilized ionic liquid membranes: an ionic liquid organosilica (ILOS) membrane, which is an organosilica membrane with ionic liquid-like properties. A silylated ionic liquid was used as a precursor for synthesis. The permselectivity, permeation mechanism, and stability of the membrane in the H₂/toluene binary system were then compared with ...

The separation process between 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) and trace glucose in conversion is important the biphasic system (aqueous–organic phase), due to partial solubility property of HMF water. In addition, yield via dehydration reaction water low (under 50%) with use Brønsted acid as a catalyst. Therefore, this study was conducted optimize production products by using new hydrophobic ion...

For the first time, a novel and efficient ionic liquid-based ultrasound-assisted in-situ solvent formation microextraction (IL-UA-ISFME) combined with high-performance liquid chromatography-ultraviolet detection (HPLC-UV) has been successfully developed for the determination of duloxetine (DLX) in human plasma. Herein, an environmentally-friendly hydrophobic ionic liquid (1-butyl-3-methylimidaz...

Ionic liquid based aqueous biphasic systems (IL-ABS) were formed by the addition in water of a hydrophilic ionic (1-Butyl-3-methylimidazolium Chloride, C4mimCl) and kosmotropic salt (tripotassium phosphate, K3PO4). The flow patterns IL-ABS studied capillary channels with 0.2, 0.5 0.8 mm internal diameter; this is first time such two-phase flows have been investigated. Three weight concentration...

The factors influencing metal partition in acidic aqueous biphasic systems (AcABS) containing phosphonium-based ILs are still poorly explored. To assess their influence, the effect of IL counter anion, acid and its concentration, temperature, were systematically evaluated on extraction four transition metals (Cu(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Mn(II)) lanthanide Ce(IV). AcABS based HCl showed good ability...
