background and objectives: analytical methods for volatile organic compounds (vocs) in different samples need extraction of compounds, by applying hazardous solvents. solid phase micro-extraction (spme) is a solvent-free equilibrium extraction method, in which proper calibration can allow quantitative determinations of vocs at a very good sensitivity without the use of any organic solvent. vocs...

Feasibility of using Cyanex 301, as the auxiliary agent, for supercritical extraction of Cupper and Manganese cations from solid matrix was studied statistically. The amount of extraction is influenced by several parameters, such as amount of ligand, pressure, temperature, SCCO2 flow rate, time of extraction and amount of acid. Recent researches showed that factorial design is an effective tool...

Ultrasonic extraction of kerogen derived by acid treatment of Huadian oil shale is performed using an organic solvent. The most effective solvent is the 60:40 (wt%) mixture of chloroform and carbon disulfide, and the suitable mass ratio of the demineralized oil shale to solvent is 1:20. The oil yield by ultrasonic extraction can reach 15.6% based on the demineralized oil shale, compared with a ...

We describe a procedure allowing extraction of total proteins that performs efficiently with a large variety of plant tissues, based on simultaneous precipitation and denaturation with TCA and 2ME in cold acetone. We also describe protein solubilization prior to IEF, either in classical rod gels or in IPGs, using two different solutions. The procedure is easy to carry out. The major caveats are...

In this study, solid state fermentation (SSF) was carried out to produce single cell protein (SCP) from sugarcane bagasse using Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The SSF experiment were performed in a tray bioreactor. The influence of several parameters including extraction buffer, initial moisture content of substrate, fermentation time, relative humidity in bioreactor, the bioreactor temperature and ...

RNA extraction is a prerequisite technique for gene expression studies, analyzing the etiology and disease progression, treatment effects, as well as designing the diagnostic methods. Although many RNA extraction kits have been commercialized, but these kits are expensive and are not accessible in some countries. Many studies have shown that TRIzol is an applicable material for the RNA extracti...

in this project, eggshell membrane was used as a solid phase extraction sorbent for extraction of morphine followed by hplc analysis. at first, raw eggshell membrane was used and then, because of low adsorption of morphine on untreated eggshell membrane (

Previous computations of low temperature Rosseland and Planck mean opacities from Alexander & Ferguson (1994b) are updated and expanded. The new computations include a more complete equation of state with more grain species and updated optical constants. Grains are now explicitly included in thermal equilibrium in the equation of state calculation, which allows for a much wider range of grain c...

Transgenic plant systems have successfully been used to express recombinant proteins, including rice seed-expressed recombinant human serum albumin (rHSA), without the risk of contamination of human pathogens. Developing an efficient extraction process is critical as the step determines recombinant protein concentration and purity, quantity of impurities, and process volume. This article evalua...
