a simple and rapid microextraction procedure based on dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (dllme) was developed for determination and speciation of trace amounts of chromium (cr) by flame atomic absorption spectrometry (faas). in the proposed approach, chloroform and methanol were used as extraction and dispersive solvents. a new schiff's base ligand, bis(2-methoxy benzaldehyde) ethylene d...

Dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME) coupled with high-performance liquid chromatography-variable wavelength detector (HPLC-VWD) was developed for extraction and determination of thiamphenicol (THA) in honey. A mixture of extraction solvent (30 microL 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane) and dispersive solvent (1.0 mL of acetonitrile) was rapidly injected into 5.00 mL sample solution for the ...

An analytical ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) method has been optimized and validated for the rapid extraction of stilbenes from grape canes. The influence of sample pre-treatment (oven or freeze-drying) and several extraction variables (solvent, sample-solvent ratio and extraction time between others) on the extraction process were analyzed. The new method allowed the main stilbenes in gr...

Pressurized Solvent Extraction (PSE) is a modern extraction method that has been developed as an alternative to traditional methods such as Soxhlet or maceration; it offers advantages with respect to extraction time and solvent consumption. BUCHI’s SpeedExtractor enables the simultaneous extraction of six samples with maximum reproducibility and low solvent usage. Polyphenols and active compoun...

In Malaysia, most of the PKC produced are from expeller extraction. Though solvent extraction is also used in the extraction of palm kernel oil but the process is costly and screw press extraction (expeller) is the rule in many palm oil processing plants. The difference in the quality of expeller PKC and solvent extracted is small, although in general expeller PKC contains more oil (4%-8%) than...

A solvent extraction route is proposed to synthesize CaF(2) hollow spheres, which are formed by reversed micelles in a solvent extraction system templating the self-assembly of CaF(2) nanoparticles.

The presented study describes the solvent extraction process of Zn(II) and Pb(II) from aqueous solutions by a cation exchanger extractant named bis(2-ethylhexyl)phosphoric acid (DEHPA). The results confirm that both of the extraction efficiency and extraction selectivity depend on the employed organic diluent. The applied extractant was selective towards zinc ions; this selectivity did not depe...

various novel techniques including ultrasound-assisted extraction, microwave-assisted extraction and supercritical fluid extraction have been developed for the extraction of medicinal plants in order to shorten the extraction time, decrease the solvent consumption, increase the extraction yield, and enhance the quality of extracts. this review was conducted to introduce and compare the conventi...

Dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME) coupled with gas chromatography-flame ionization detection (GC-FID) was applied for the determination of two tricyclic antidepressant drugs (TCAs), amitriptyline and nortriptyline, from water samples. This method is a very simple and rapid method for the extraction and preconcentration of these drugs from environmental sample solutions. In this m...
