many modern analytical methods deal with the trace-level determination of compounds of interest in highly complex environmental samples by means of chromatographic techniques. the introduction of a “clean” sample into an analytical instrument can make analyses easier and prolongs the equipment life. the use of solid-phase extraction (spe) has grown and is a fertile technique of sample preparati...

background: equine chorionic gonadotropin (ecg) is commonly used in association with a progestagen treatment to synchronize estrus of goats and ewes during breeding and non-breeding seasons. classical purification of the ecg from serum includes ph fractionation with metaphosphoric acid two ethanol precipitation steps as well as dialysis followed by fixed-bed chromatography. objectives: the aim ...

in this project, eggshell membrane was used as a solid phase extraction sorbent for extraction of morphine followed by hplc analysis. at first, raw eggshell membrane was used and then, because of low adsorption of morphine on untreated eggshell membrane (

background and objectives: the addition of plasticizers (mainly phthalates and adipates) makes plastic flexible and popular for packaging, storing and preserving food, water, and so on. the most widely used plasticizer in food contact applications is di-ethylhexyl phthalate (dehp) though being suspected to have carcinogenic and estrogenic properties. the aim of this study is application of magn...

analytical chemistry has experienced, as well as other areas of science, a big change due to the needs and opportunities provided by analytical nanoscience and nanotechnology. now, nanotechnology is increasingly proving to be a powerful ally of analytical chemistry to achieve its objectives, and to simplify analytical processes. moreover, the information needs arising from the growing nanotechn...

this article presents the method of extraction-preconcentration of lead, cadmium, and nickel ions from food samples using the ghezeljeh montmorillonite nanoclay (geleh-sar-shoor) as a new native adsorbent in batch single component systems. the extraction-preconcentration of heavy metals were carried out by applying the solid phase extraction (spe) method followed by atomic absorption spectrosco...

a novel, magnetic silica sorbent with polyelectrolyte multilayers (pems) on its surface was prepared, and was used for magnetic solid phase extraction (mspe) of trace a+ via flame atomic absorption spectrometry (faas). the experimental parameters for the mspe procedure, such as the ph, type, and concentration of eluent, ultrasonic time and effects of co-existing ions were investigated. the dete...

a simple, rapid and sensitive solvent assisted-dispersive solid phase extraction method was developed for the extraction of iron(ii) prior to its spectrophotometric determination. the fe(ii) reacted with 2,4,6-tris(2-pyridyl)-1,3,5-triazine, neutralized with sodium dodecyl sulfate and extracted onto the fine particles of benzophenone which were formed upon rapid injection of a mixture of benzop...
