A new method for the determination of trace copper(II) in food samples by Cloud Point Extraction(CPE) combined with Flame Atomic Absorption Spectrometry(FAAS) is presented and evaluated. The method is based on the fact that hydrophobic complex of copper(II) with sodium diethyldithiocarbamate (DDTC) was formed at pH 6.0 and subsequently the hydrophobic complex was extracted into surfactant-r...

A method of video flame detection based on multi-feature fusion is presented in this paper. Physical characteristics of flame, including color clues, flame movement and flame flicker are incorporated into the scheme to detect fires in color video frames. Firstly, mean filtering was used to smooth the video frames and a flame color filtering algorithm was adopted to extract flame candidate regio...

The analysis of brominated flame retardants (BFRs) commonly relies on the use of gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC-MS) operating in electron ionization (EI) and electron capture negative ionization (ECNI) modes using quadrupole, triple quadrupole, ion trap, and magnetic sector analyzers. However, these brominated contaminants are examples of compounds for which a soft and robu...

a simple, selective and efficient solid phase extraction method based on the use of  γ-alumina nanoparticles coated with sodium dodecyl sulfate (sds) and modified with 2-​(5-​bromo-​2-​pyridylazo)​-​5-​(diethylamino) ​phenol (5-br-padap) as a new adsorbent was developed for the separation and preconcentration of trace amounts of manganese (ii) prior to determination by flame atomic absorption s...

a column of alumina modified with sodium dodecyl sulfate (sds) and dimethylglyoxime (dmg) was prepared for the preconcentration of trace nickel from water samples for flame atomic absorption spectrometry (faas) determinations. under optimized conditions (ph=7.0; flow rate: 20 mlmin-1) nickel was retained on the column. the nickel collected on the column was eluted with 5 ml of 1 m nitric acid. ...

abstract in this work, fe3o4-graphene oxide nanocomposite (go-fe3o4) was prepared as effective absorbent for magnetic solid phase extraction (mspe) of trace quantities of cadmium ions in environmental water and rice samples using 1, 2-dihydroxy anthraquinone-3-sulphonic acid, sodium salt (alizarin red s) and flame atomic absorption spectrometry (faas). the   go-fe3o4 was characterized by scanni...

We present a study of the flame-embedding concept, introduced in [1] as an efficient approach for large-eddy simulation of turbulent combustion at high Reynolds and Damköhler numbers. In flame embedding, the combustion zone is modeled as an unsteady flame modified by the local tangential strain rate, with the latter extracted every time step from the flow field simulations. The flame structure ...

Different solvent extracts of a red algae, Hypnea flagelliformis,and two brown algae, Cystoseira myrica and Sargassum boveanum, collected from the Persian Gulf coast were subjected to different bioassays including: 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical scavenging assay, antibacterial and antifungal activity by thin layer chromatography (TLC)-bioautography, agar disc diffusion (ADD) ...
