In the past few decades, there is increasing trend to use products from natural resources. Dyes obtained from natural sources are among such products. The present research mainly focuses on optimization of extraction conditions during a natural dye extraction from the flower petals of a tree ‘Flame of Forest’. Taguchi technique was employed for optimization of the parameters namely raw dyestuff...

Three vegetable dyes are used for the study: anthocyanin dye from pomegranate arils extract, betalain dye from beet root extract and chlorophyll dye from tridax procumbens leaf. The anthocyanin and betalain, anthocyanin and chlorophyll, betalain and chlorophyll dyes are blended in cocktail in equal proportions, by volume. This study determines the effect of different extraction concentrations a...

The dye T-1824 (Evans Blue) has gained wide acceptance for determining plasma volume. Recently there has been a renewed interest in dye circulation studies for the measurement of cardiac output, central volume, cardiac shunts, and valvular regurgitation. The method of estimation most commonly used is spectrophotometric analysis of the dye-tinged plasma (or serum) compared with standard dye solu...

OBJECTIVE The aim was to establish a method for measuring organ blood flow in rats using commercially available, coloured, dye extraction microspheres. METHODS A mixture of radiolabelled and dye extraction microspheres was infused into rats at rest (basal) and during intravenous administration of either angiotensin II (0.5 microgram.kg-1.min-1) or isoprenaline [12.5 ng.(g0.74)-1.min-1]. Tissu...

Bentonite bleaching earth is utilized for purifying used motor oil through a recovery process in order to improve the quality and stability of the final product. Indeed, spent bleaching earth is generated due to adsorbing oil impurities. Polluted spent bleaching earth contains 20-40% (w/w) oil and is flammable. Its disposal without pre-treatment leads to loss of oil along with environmental imp...

Selective polymeric extractants were prepared for preconcentration of Cibacron reactive red dye, a dye that is often applied with Cibacron reactive blue and Cibacron reactive yellow for dyeing of fabrics. The best extractant was fabricated (in chloroform) using methacrylic acid (as monomer), ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (as crosslinker), AIBN (as initiator for polymerization), and red dye as ...

a user-friendly and inexpensive ionic liquid-based single-drop microextraction (il-sdme) method was developed to preconcentrate trace amounts of aminophenol isomers (aps) from human urine, hair dye and water samples prior to analysis by high performance liquid chromatography-ultraviolet spectrophotometry detection (hplc-uv). under optimum conditions (i.e., 3.5 µl of 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium ...

It is felt very essential to develop a knowledge base on dye chemistry and effects of dyeing process variables as well as rate of dyeing and chemical kinetics of dyeing for different natural dyes and fibres combinations to manipulate the processes of natural dyeing efficiently in order to get maximum color yield in economical way. A review on the effects of dye extraction medium, optimum concen...

The aim of this study was to compare the microleakage of total-etch and self-etch adhesives by three methods including dye extraction, dye penetration and fluid filtration with determining the correlation value among these techniques. Seventy-two premolar teeth were selected for this in vitro study and Class 5 cavities were prepared on the buccal surface of these at the cemento-enamel junction ...
