A novel surface ionization detector using a reducing quartz liner and a Mo emitter with a quartz enclosed internal heater for selective measurement of alkylamines by gas chromatography is designed and evaluated.

background: volatile organic compounds (vocs), including carcinogens and toxic compounds, are produced in petrochemical industries. we undertook this study in order to study workers’ respiratory exposure to different voc concentrations and compare the results with the urinary levels of its metabolites and study the correlation between them in petrochemical industries. materials and methods: exp...

Background information: The phytochemicals of endophytes have generated substantial interest in drug discovery programs because they offer the possibility discovering new biologically active molecules. Objective: objective this study was to quantify and analyze phytochemical profile fungus endophytic extracts isolated from Azadirachta indica leaves, which been used ethnobotanically for treating...

Phospholipid fatty acids (PLFAs) are key components of microbial cell membranes. The analysis of PLFAs extracted from soils can provide information about the overall structure of terrestrial microbial communities. PLFA profiling has been extensively used in a range of ecosystems as a biological index of overall soil quality, and as a quantitative indicator of soil response to land management an...

The gas-liquid chromatography of 2-chloroethyl derivatives of short- and long-chain monocarboxylic acids, and of short-chain dicarboxylic acids and aldehydes has been studied with a dual-flame ionization detector that provided simultaneous records of the concentrations of chlorine and of total organic material in the column effluent. The chloroethyl derivatives of dicarboxylic acids and aldehyd...

A gas chromatography (GC) method including a full evaporation headspace (FE-HS) sampling technique was developed for rapidly and simultaneously measuring volatile products for acetone-butanol-ethanol (ABE) fermentation. In this method, a small volume (<50 μL) of fermentation broth was directly injected into a sealed headspace sample vial (22 mL) and the mass transfer of acetone-butanol-ethanol ...

The parameters affecting the separation and quantification of trimethylsilyl ethers of mono- and diglycerides have been investigated by gas-liquid chromatography with QF-1 and SE-30 as stationary phases and a flame ionization detector. Results have been compared with those obtained earlier for triglycerides. The isothermal characteristics of a range of trimethylsilyl ethers of mono- and diglyce...
