spectrometric techniques for the analysis of trace lead have developed rapidly due to the increasing need for accurate measurements at extremely low levels of this element in diverse matrices. this review covers separation and preconcentration procedures, and considers the features of the application with several spectrometric techniques. the use of an appropriate sample handling technique is a...

In this study, the separation of formic acid from aqueous solutions was investigated. Liquid-liquid equilibrium (LLE) data including tie-lines was reported for water + formic acid + 2-methylpropyl ethanoate ternary mixture at (293.15 to 323.15) K and atmospheric pressure. The system shows type-I phase behavior based on Treybal’s classification because only one partially miscible binary mixture ...

We describe the first realization of liquid chromatographic separation in a droplet-based microfluidic system and develop a novel mode for microchip-based chromatography named as droplet-array liquid-liquid chromatography. In this system, two arrays of picoliter-scale droplets immobilized on both sidewalls of a microchannel with droplet trapping technique served as the stationary phase in chrom...

Normal phase, isocratic high-performance liquid chromatography methods are described for the separation of neutral lipid and fatty acid classes using low wavelength detection. Prior to high-performance liquid chromatography, methods were developed and are described for the separation of phospholipids from neutral lipids and fatty acids using small (600 mg) silica Sep-PaksTM. Recoveries of chole...

Transformation of deuterated ethanol from supercooled liquid into a plastic crystal or rotator phase is investigated by means of a particular experimental setup combining simultaneously dielectric spectroscopy with neutron diffraction techniques. We demonstrate that, previous to the growth of the bcc lattice of the plastic crystal phase, the formation of a precursor or intermediate phase throug...

In this research, the new separation method based on micro solvent cluster extraction and preferential solvation has been described. A proposed separation method using aqueous mixed solvents of organic solvents (acetonitrile, 1-propanol, 2-propanol and 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoro-2-propanol) or ionic liquids and an open tubular capillary has been separated the model compounds (2-naphthol, 4-nitroani...

In this article, the ternary phase diagram in polyamide-6 (PA6)/Formic acid (FA)/Water system was constructed by experimental measurement. The determination of binodal curve was measured according to titration of the PA6 polymer solution with water as a non-solvent until the onset of turbidity. Also, the phase separation process of the prepared membranes structures system was investigated. The ...

The nucleolus is a membrane-less organelle formed through liquid-liquid phase separation of its components from the surrounding nucleoplasm. Here, we show that nucleophosmin (NPM1) integrates within the nucleolus via a multi-modal mechanism involving multivalent interactions with proteins containing arginine-rich linear motifs (R-motifs) and ribosomal RNA (rRNA). Importantly, these R-motifs are...

Viscoelastic Networks In article number 2205649, Ho Cheung Shum and co-workers develop a new aqueous two-phase system (ATPS) that displays dynamic assembly of viscoelastic networks by liquid–liquid phase separation liquid–solid (AqLL-LS PS2). are generated using phase-separated DEX droplets as templates the subsequent liquid-to-solid transition PNIPAM-rich phase.
