thallium is widely found in nature, but the only inorganic stones full of this element are crookesite and lorandit. it isalso found in pyrites of copper, lead and inorganic stones. the element and its compositions are toxic and harmful to theenvironment; therefore, its application requires caution and further research. it is important to develop sensitive andaccurate analytical methods to deter...

objective(s): dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction coupled with gas chromatography (gc)-flame ionization detector was developed for the determination of valproic acid (vpa) in human plasma. materials and methods: using a syringe, a mixture of suitable extraction solvent (40 µl chloroform) and disperser (1 ml acetone) was quickly added to 10 ml of diluted plasma sample containing vpa (ph, 1.0...

water contamination due to the wide variety of pesticides used in agriculture is a global environmental pollution problem. in order to reach at sub-î¼gl-1 levels of detection, an efficient extraction technique is required. a simple, fast and economical method, dispersive liquid-liquid micro extraction (dllme), followed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry was assessed for determining endosul...

abstract polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (pahs) are classified as persistent and carcinogenic organic pollutants. pahs contamination has been reported in water. many of relevant regulatory bodies such as eu and epa have regulated the limit levels for pahs in drinking water. in this study, 13 priority polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (pahs) were determined in tap water samples of tehran and wat...

Foodstuffs analysis is very important due to population growth and increasing consumer demand for safety and nutritional excellence. The Analysis of different compounds in foodstuffs is so difficult without using sample preparation techniques. Traditional techniques require large amounts of toxic organic solvents. As a result, they are not only expensive but also environmentally unfriendly and ...

This paper describes a new approach for the determination of amitriptyline in wastewater by ionic liquid based immersed droplet microextraction (IL-IDME) prior to high-performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection. 1-Hexyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([C6MIM][PF6]) was used as an ionic liquid. Various factors that affect extraction, such as volume of ionic liquid, sti...

the applicability of hollow fiber-based liquid phase microextraction (hf-lpme) was evaluated for the extraction and preconcentration of loratadine prior to determination by hplc. in order to obtain high extraction recovery, the parameters affecting the hf-lpme including type of organic phase, ph of the source and receiving phases, stirring rate, extraction time and salt addition were studied an...

an air–assisted liquid–liquid microextraction method for the extraction and preconcentration of trace amounts of some synthetic phenolic antioxidants in biological fluids followed by their determination by gas chromatography–flame ionization detection has been reported. in this method the target analytes are extracted into a few microliters of carbon tetrachloride (extraction solvent) from an a...

a new simple and rapid dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction has been applied to preconcentrate tracelevels of zinc as a prior step to its determination by spectrophotometric method. in the proposed method, 4-(2-pyridylazo) resorcinol (par) is used as a chelating agent, and chloroform and ethanol are selected asextraction and dispersive solvent. the optimization strategy is carried out by us...
