The influence of extractive content on the thermal stability and kinetic degradation of two wood species has been investigated using chemical analysis and thermogravimetry. Two wood species were studied: Pinus taeda and Eucalyptus grandis. Thermogravimetric results showed that higher extractive contents in the wood accelerate the degradation process and promote an increase in the conversion val...

We present a dual decomposition framework for multi-document summarization, using a model that jointly extracts and compresses sentences. Compared with previous work based on integer linear programming, our approach does not require external solvers, is significantly faster, and is modular in the three qualities a summary should have: conciseness, informativeness, and grammaticality. In additio...

A simple, accurate and fast vortex-assisted dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction procedure has been developed for the extractive spectrophotometric determination of niflumic acid in biological samples. The method is based on the formation of an ion association complex between niflumic acid and methylene blue. The resulting ion-pair was extracted into dichloromethane and its absorbance was m...

A simple extractive spectrophotometric method has been developed for the estimation of miconazole nitratein both pure and pharmaceutical preparation. The method is based on the formation of ion-pair complex of thedrug with acidic dye bromothymol blue (BTB) in acidic condition, followed by its extraction in organic solvent(chloroform). The absorbance was measured against the corresponding blank....

Recovery of metabolites from fermentation broth by solvent extraction can be used to optimize fermentation processes. End-product reutilization, low product concentration and large volumes of fermentation broth and the requirements for large bioreactors, in addition to the high cost largely contributed to the decline in fermentative 2,3-butanediol production. Extraction can successfully be ...

We present a candidate reference method for the determination of serum theophylline by isotope dilution gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, using extractive alkylation in sample preparation. The maximum method bias was < 1.0%. The mean method imprecision (CV) was 0.63% (range 0.37-0.96%), calculated from the results of six measurements independently performed on 3 days. The maximum total erro...

An extractive spectrophotometric method is described for the assay of sitagliptin phosphate in bulk drug and in tablets. Sitagliptin phosphatewas extracted as an ion-pair complex from the solution containing Eriochrome black T and 0.1N HCl into chloroform and the absorbance of the complex was measured at 500nm.The working conditions of the method were investigated and optimized. Beer’s law plot...
