In this paper, a simple dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction for the extraction and pre-concentration of formaldehyde in seawater samples followed with spectrophotometric is proposed. Formaldehyde was derivatized in situ with acetyl acetone in the presence of ammonium acetate in a single step. Then it was collected into a mixture of ethanol (disperser solvent) and chloroform (extracting...

Contamination of food producing animals by veterinary drug residues, particularly quinolones, is an essential issue in food safety that causes increasing concern in consumers. The aim of this study was to investigate the occurrence of enrofloxacin and its main metabolite, ciprofloxacin, in chicken tissue samples slaughtered in Tabriz, Iran. Totally 250 samples including liver, muscle, gizzard, ...

the rapidly increasing interest in functional materials with reversibly switchable physico- chemical properties has led to significant work on the development of stimuli responsive membranes. thermotropic liquid crystals with their exceptional properties have potentials for drug-delivery applications. thermoresponsive liquid-crystal-embedded membranes were investigated for the purpose of develo...

the determination region of solubility of methanol with gasoline of high aromatic content was investigated experimentally at temperature of 288.2 k. a type 1 liquid-liquid phase diagram was obtained for this ternary system. these results were correlated simultaneously by the uniquac model. the values of the interaction parameters between each pair of components in the system were obtained for t...

Abstract A novel basic ionic liquid based on imidazolium cation is designed, synthesized and successfully used as a catalyst for the one-pot synthesis of 4-Oxo-6-aryl-2-thioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine-5-carbonitrile derivatives. The remarkable features of this new catalyst are its ethyleneoxy bridge which participates in dissolving organic compound in the ionic liquid and its strong base co...

This paper analyzes the impact of liquid asset holdings on bank profitability for a sample of Iranian banks. Using the Generalized Method of Moment (GMM), this study analyzes the profitability of listed banks using unbalanced panel data over the period of 2002-2009. We use the liquidity asset and liquidity asset-ratio square for estimating liquid asset and profitability relationship. The e...

For the first time, a novel and efficient ionic liquid-based ultrasound-assisted in-situ solvent formation microextraction (IL-UA-ISFME) combined with high-performance liquid chromatography-ultraviolet detection (HPLC-UV) has been successfully developed for the determination of duloxetine (DLX) in human plasma. Herein, an environmentally-friendly hydrophobic ionic liquid (1-butyl-3-methylimidaz...
