Microfluidic extraction of tannic acid from Quercus leaves
Authors
Abstract:
In this study, extraction of tannic acid using microchannel was investigated. Affective parameters were optimized. Different solvents including buthanol, ethylacetate and n-hexane as organic phase, methanol, propanol, ethanol and water as aqueous phase investigated. Microchannels with different confluence angles and diameters were examined. Microchannels with different confluence angles and diameters were examined. The effects of pH, temperature, and volumetric flow ratio and contact time of the two phases were investigated. The response surface methodology was used to optimize extraction yield of tannin from Quercus leaves in the employed microchannels. Based on this optimization, maximum yield was achieved at pH=2, temperature=33.1℃, volumetric flow ratio =1.2 and contact time of 25.35s. Results show that extraction-using microchannel has many advantages over traditional methods, including shorter time and higher economic efficiency. Moreover, microchannel provides smaller volume of fluids resulting in lower solvent consumption, lower waste production, shorter analytical times, smaller space requirements, and lower energy consumption.

The hepatocarcinogenicity of tannic acid.
In the group of chemical hepatocarcinogenic agents, the number of which has steadily increased in recent years (:$7), tannic acid deserves attention. Owing to its astringent effect, this compound was formerly used widely in therapy. The local treatment of thermal burns with tannic acid was suggested by Davidson (1935), and his procedure was generally employed in Hungary during World War II. I t...

We demonstrate a novel assay for purification of RNA (16S rRNA) from whole human blood infected with Pseudomonas Putida (P. Putida). This assay is unique in that the extraction chemistry provides a method which both lyses bacteria cells and protects RNA from degradation when isolating from matrices rich with ribonuclease (RNase) (such as blood). The method can also be integrated with on-chip RN...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Tannins are toxic polyphenols that either bind and precipitate or condense proteins. The high tannin content of some plants is the preliminary limitation of using them as a ruminant feed. So, the aim of this study was the isolation and characterization of tannic acid degrading bacterial strains from goat feces before and after feeding on Pistachio-Soft Hulls as tannin ...

To ilic Editor, The Indian Medical Gazette. Sir,?During the past few years, tannic acid has come into considerable vogue for the treatment of burns. As House Surgeon in the Sir J. J. Hospital in Bombay in 1927-28 I had to treat many cases of burns, but was unsuccessful with tannic acid. I asked my chief, Mr. S. R. Moolgavkar, f.r.c.s., as to the reason for this, and he gave me the following adv...
