Dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) and dimethyl sulphide (DMS) are compounds found mainly in marine phytoplankton and in some halophytic plants. DMS is a globally important biogenic volatile in regulating of global sulfur cycle and planetary albedo, whereas DMSP is involved in the maintenance of plant-environment homeostasis. Plants emit minute amounts of DMS compared to marine phytoplankton and...

There have been many domain-specific keyword extraction researches, but micro-blogoriented keyword extraction is just beginning. This paper researches into the keyword extraction from Chinese micro-blog. Taking the characteristics of micro-blog into account, such as short, topic divergence, etc., we propose a Chinese micro-blog keyword extraction method based on the combination of multi feature...

this research is on the improvement of the procedure to determination of trace levels of antidepressant drug; fluoxetine in wastewaters. in this research a silica based sol-gel was applied for the extraction of fluoxetine from water samples. this two-phase technique is consisting of aqueous samples of fluoxetine (donor phase) and silica based nanocomposite prepared by sol-gel technique (accepto...

Effective microchip extraction of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) from crude biological matrixes has been demonstrated using silica beads or hybrid phases composed of beads and sol-gel. However, the use of monolithic sol-gels alone for extraction of human genomic DNA has been more difficult to define. Here we describe, for the first time, the successful use of monolithic tetramethyl orthosilicate-b...

in this work, a new, simple and fast method for the solid phase extraction-spectrophotometric determination of phosphate using cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide immobilized on alumina-coated magnetite nanoparticles (ctab@acmnps) has been developed. the determination of phosphate is based on the molybdenum blue method which was monitored at λmax of 810 nm. mnps and acmnps characterized by sem, vsm...

many modern analytical methods deal with the trace-level determination of compounds of interest in highly complex environmental samples by means of chromatographic techniques. the introduction of a “clean” sample into an analytical instrument can make analyses easier and prolongs the equipment life. the use of solid-phase extraction (spe) has grown and is a fertile technique of sample preparati...

background: equine chorionic gonadotropin (ecg) is commonly used in association with a progestagen treatment to synchronize estrus of goats and ewes during breeding and non-breeding seasons. classical purification of the ecg from serum includes ph fractionation with metaphosphoric acid two ethanol precipitation steps as well as dialysis followed by fixed-bed chromatography. objectives: the aim ...

in this project, eggshell membrane was used as a solid phase extraction sorbent for extraction of morphine followed by hplc analysis. at first, raw eggshell membrane was used and then, because of low adsorption of morphine on untreated eggshell membrane (

background and objectives: the addition of plasticizers (mainly phthalates and adipates) makes plastic flexible and popular for packaging, storing and preserving food, water, and so on. the most widely used plasticizer in food contact applications is di-ethylhexyl phthalate (dehp) though being suspected to have carcinogenic and estrogenic properties. the aim of this study is application of magn...
