Solvent exchange is a process involving mixing between good solvent with dissolved solute and poor solvent. The creates local oversaturation which causes the nucleation of minute droplets. Such ternary systems on macro-scale have remained unexplored in turbulent regime. We experimentally study by injecting mixtures ethanol trans-anethole into water, forming buoyant jet upward direction. Locally...

Essential oils (EOs) are acclaimed for their antimicrobial properties, leading to multiple applications in various fields. In this work, four aromatic plants were used, namely thyme (Thymus mastichina L.), everlasting (Helychrysum stoechas Moench), European pennyroyal (Mentha pulegium L.) and fennel (Foeniculum vulgare Mill.). Hydrodistillation was the extraction method obtained extracts compos...

fumigant toxicity of essential oils from foeniculum vulgare (apiaceae), teucrium polium (lamiaceae) and satureja hortensis (lamiaceae) were evaluated against the adults of cowpea seed beetle, callosobruchus maculatus exposed for 24h. essential oils were obtained through steam-distillation using a clevenger-type apparatus. bioassays were conducted at 28±2 °c and 60±5% r.h. in dark conditions. si...
