In this work, the solubility of nicotine extracted from tobacco leaves, found in the north of Iran, in supercritical carbon dioxide has been measured. Also the effects of pressure, temperature, extraction dynamic time, and the organic co-Solvent on the amount of nicotine extracted from tobacco leaves have been investigated. It should be stressed that in order to reduce significantly the num...

As arterial partial pressure of O(2) (Pa(O(2))) is reduced during systemic hypoxia, right ventricular (RV) work and myocardial O(2) consumption (MVo(2)) increase. Mechanisms responsible for maintaining RV O(2) demand/supply balance during hypoxia have not been delineated. To address this problem, right coronary (RC) blood flow and RV O(2) extraction were measured in nine conscious, instrumented...

Supercritical fluid extraction of the volatile oil of the aerial part of the winter savory was carried out in different conditions of pressure, temperature, mean particle size and CO2 flow rate and the results were compared with those obtaining by hydrodistillation with a Clevenger-type apparatus. The non-volatile components were extracted by SFE at higher pressures and by soxhlet extraction wi...

Abstract Citrus juice processing residues are mainly composed of peel, juice sack and seed. The peel, especially, consists of bioactive compounds such as flavones. Supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) extraction of flavonoid was carried out at a pressure of 30 MPa and temperature ranging from 80 to 160°C. Ratio of water and ethanol as a co-solvent was varied from 0 to 100%. Flavonoids such as ...

PURPOSE Physical activity has been associated with reduced blood pressure in observational epidemiologic studies and individual clinical trials. This meta-analysis of randomized, controlled trials was conducted to determine the effect of aerobic exercise on blood pressure. DATA SOURCES English-language articles published before September 2001. STUDY SELECTION 54 randomized, controlled trial...

In the present study, Radix Codonopsis was extracted by supercritical CO2 extraction. As Ointment collecting rate and the yield of stigmasterol are index, Various reaction parameters were changed to attain the optimal conditions. The appropriate process conditions are size 40 60Mesh, 30 Mpa pressure, temperature 65 °C, 120 min, entrainer Alcohol dynamic extraction (entrainer pump flow rate of 1...
