Extraction of Lipids and Polychlorinated Biphenyls from Fish Tissue in a Single Run Using Accelerated Solvent Extraction (ASE)

IntroductIon The presence of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in fish and other marine organisms is of immediate environmental and regulatory concern. To determine the concentrations of PCBs indicative of contaminant exposure, and lipids, which also characterize physiological conditions of fish, the analytes must first be extracted. Traditionally, this has been done using Soxhlet methods that a...

Extraction of Phenolic Acids from Plant Tissue Using Accelerated Solvent Extraction (ASE®)

IntroductIon Polyphenols are a large family of metabolic compounds that occur naturally in a wide variety of plant foods. Recently, polyphenols have attracted a great deal of attention due to their roles as natural antioxidants. Antioxidants are believed to provide a protective effect against oxidative damage diseases such as cancer, coronary heart disease, and stroke. It has been estimated tha...

Rapid Determination of Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) Using Accelerated Solvent Extraction (ASE)

INTRODUCTION The United Nations Environmental Program (UNEP) has been implemented in an effort to combat the release of selected persistent organic pollutants (POPs). POPs are found in environmental samples such as soils, sludges, solid and semisolid waste, and sediments. POPs are also found in biological samples such as human breast milk, and fish tissue. UNEP is interested in eliminating POPs...

Biodegradation of Polychlorinated Biphenyls by and Isolated from Contaminated Soil

Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) cause many significant ecological problems because of their low degradability, high harmfulness, and solid bioaccumulation.Two bacterial strains were isolated from soil that had been polluted with electrical transformer liquid for more than 40 years. The isolates were distinguished as Lysinibacillus macrolides DSM54Tand Bacillus firmus NBRC1530...

Accelerated Solvent Extraction (ASE®) of Hydrocarbon Contaminants (BTEX, Diesel, and TPH) in Soils

INTRODUCTION Underground storage tanks containing hydrocarbonbased fuels are found worldwide. Many of these underground storage tanks are known to have leaks, allowing gasoline, diesel or other fuels to contaminate the surrounding soil. As of 1992, there were two million underground tanks being monitored for leaks and an additional three million not monitored for leaks within the United States ...
