Hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC) a powerful technique used for separation and purification of biomolecules. It was described for the first time by Shepard & Tiselius (1949), using the term “salting-out chromatography”. Later, Shaltiel & Er-el (1973) introduced the term “hydrophobic chromatography”. Finally, Hjerten (1973) described this technique as “hydrophobic interaction chromato...

The emergence of next-generation "deep" sequencing has enabled the study of virus populations with much higher resolutions. This new tool increases the possibility of observing mixed infections caused by combinations of plant viruses, which are likely to occur more frequently than previously thought. The biological impact of co-infecting viruses on their host has yet to be determined and fully ...

seed purification is one of the important agricultural processes to obtain high quality seeds. using modern technologies help producers to do this process with higher precision and accuracy. in order to separate seed impurities, a separation machine called tribo-aero-electrostatic separator was designed. the machine was evaluated by separating impurities of flixweed (descuriania sophia). primar...

background and objectives: the genus verbascum, with nearly 360 species, is one of the largest members of schrophulariacea family. in the flora of iran, the genus verbascum is represented by 43 species among them seventeen plants are endemic. verbascum species are well known in folk medicine and are widely used for therapeutic purposes. verbascum sublobatum murb. grows wildly in north of iran. ...

the root and flowers of butea monosperma (lam.) were extracted with methanol. extensive chromatographic separation and purification with the organic solvents was done. four phytochemicals were separated and their structures were established based on various spectroscopic techniques. isolated crude extract was subjected for antibacterial activity against gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria ...

This study presents the application of ternary phase diagrams to tropical almond biodiesel components separation and purification at two temperatures. The seed oil was extracted mechanically alkaline transesterified produce biodiesel. were characterized using standard methods. Tie lines binodal solubility curve data determined modified cloud point titration procedures. Gas chromatographic metho...

the silica boron sulfuric acid nanoparticles (sbsans) as an efficient heterogeneous solid acid catalyst with both brønsted and lewis acidic sites catalyzed the preparation of bis-4-hydroxycoumarin derivatives using reaction of aldehydes and 4-hydroxycoumarin under mild and solvent-free condition at room temperature. this new and efficient methodology has advantages in comparison with currently ...

background: taxus species are important due to their content of taxol, baccatin iii, 10- deacetyl baccatin and other taxoids suitable to change to active pharmaceutical ingredients, which are used as anti-neoplastic agents. investigations on taxoids carried out during the past four decades, resulted in identification of more than 350 taxoids. objective: this study aimed to isolate and identify ...
