conclusions the results showed that the extracted omvs were conformationally stable, and there were no pyrogenic determinants in omv. also the results showed that the omv elicited high level of specific antibodies against n. meningitidis serogroup a. these results indicate that the omv obtained here, can be used as a meningococcal vaccine after further investigation. materials and methods omvs ...

In the present study, various mixtures of aqueous ethanol and acetone solutions were utilized to extract anthocyanins from eggplant peel by a discontinuous process to obtain a natural red-purple colorant. First, the most appropriate combination for extraction solvent was selected as ethanol 70 wt in water acidified with acetic acid 3 wt, which was determined by analysis of extraction yields and...

Ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) was evaluated as a simpler and more effective alternative to conventional extraction methods for the isolation of curcuminoids from turmeric plant rhizomes. The turmeric samples were extracted under indirect sonication in an ultrasonic bath, and compared with the conventional methods. It was found that the yield of ultrasound-assisted extraction was approxim...

Quercetin rich compound and cardanol were extracted modified via the William ether synthesis using 1,2-dibromoethane in presence of a base catalyst. The FTIR spectral analysis product confirmed its chemical modification. MRCNSL was evaluated as emulsion breakers. Medium crude seawater, characterized with ASTM standards used producing laboratory-simulated oil emulsions at varying oil: water mixi...
