in this study, anti alternaria solani effects of essential oils of 11 medicinal and aromatic plant species belonging to four families collected from the west of iran were investigated based on agar dilution method with five replications at concentration of 1.0 µl/ml. the results showed that the highest inhibitory effect belonged to oliveria decumbens, cinnamomum zeylanicum, carum copticum and t...

A method for the quantitative determination of dibutyl phthalate (DBP), benzyl butyl phthalate (BBP), bis(2-ethylhexyl) adipate (DEHA), bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), di-n-octyl phthalate (DNOP), dioctyl terephthalate (DOTP), diisononyl phthalate (DINP), and diisodecyl phthalate (DIDP) in medical infusion sets was developed and validated using gas chromatography coupled with triple quadrup...

A fast method of analysis for 20 representative pesticides was developed using low-pressure gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (LP-GC-MS). No special techniques for injection or detection with a common quadrupole GC-MS instrument were required to use this approach. The LP-GC-MS approach used an analytical column of 10 m x 0.53 mm I.D., 1 microm film thickness coupled with a 3 m x 0.15 mm I.D....

The authors assessed several chiral GC columns to select one for the Sample Analysis at Mars experiment on the Martian rover. The Agilent J&W CP-Chirasil-Dex CB column was chosen as the only chiral column for this space mission, and for the next Martian mission, ExoMars. Published by Elsevier B. V. Processing of meteoritic organic materials as a possible analog of early molecular evolution in p...

Gas chromatography (GC) is used widely in applications involving food analysis. Typical applications pertain to the quantitative and/or qualitative analysis of food composition, natural products, food additives, flavor and aroma components, a variety of transformation products, and contaminants, such as pesticides, fumigants, environmental pollutants, natural toxins, veterinary drugs, and packa...

A simple and high-throughput screening method for the analysis of 136 pesticides in avocado ( Persea americana ) by LC-(+)-ESI-MS/MS and GC-MS/MS is presented. A modified QuEChERS sample preparation method was developed to improve the extraction recovery of highly lipophilic pesticides. Extracts from minced avocados after acetonitrile (MeCN) extraction were directly injected to LC-MS/MS, wherea...

abstract chemical components of narcissus (narcissus tazetta l.) essential oil investigated under farming and natural habitat conditions in south khorasan province. the essential oil was obtained using solvent extraction method. after purification, the oil was analyzed by capillary gc and gc/ms. 12 compnents making 82/82% of total oil in farm sample and 13 components making 63/86% of total oil ...
