Selective extraction of lactoferrin from acidic whey using CTAB/n-heptanol reverse micellar system

A Simple Complexation Model and the Experimental Datafor Protein Extraction Using Reverse Micellar Systems

Studies on Extraction Behaviour of Reserpine during Reverse Micellar Extraction from Rauwolfia Vomitoria

Reserpine a well known phytochemical molecule found in the dried roots of plants such as Rauwolfia Serpentina and Rauwolfia Vomitoria. It is a hypertension drug molecule used in drug formulation. Reserpine ranks as one of the most complex natural product of its size and contains 21 skeletal atoms compactly arranged in five rings. The stereo chemical complexity and biological significance of Res...

Solvent Extraction of Zinc from Acidic Solution Obtained from Cold Purification Filter Cake of Angouran Mine Concentrate Using D2EHPA

Communication to the Editor Protein Extraction Using the Sodium Bis(2-ethyIhexyI) Phosphate (NaDEHP) Reverse Micellar System

The reverse micellar system of sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate (NaDEHP)/isooctane/brine was used for liquidliquid extraction of proteins. We investigated the solubilization of cytochrorne-c and 0-chymotrypsin into the NaDEHP reverse micellar phase by varying the pH and NaCl concentration in the aqueous phase. At neutral pH and relatively low ionic strength, the proteins are extracted into th...

One-Step Purification of Lactoferrin from Crude Sweet Whey Using Cation-Exchange Expanded Bed Adsorption

In order to purify lactoferrin from crude sweet whey in one step, an expanded bed adsorption process was proposed with cation-exchanger Fastline SP. A series of experiments were carried out to assess the possibility of this process and optimize the operating conditions. First the adsorption equilibrium and kinetics of lactoferrin with Fastline SP were measured. The results indicated that Fastli...
