Ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) was evaluated as a simpler and more effective alternative to conventional extraction methods for the isolation of curcuminoids from turmeric plant rhizomes. The turmeric samples were extracted under indirect sonication in an ultrasonic bath, and compared with the conventional methods. It was found that the yield of ultrasound-assisted extraction was approxim...

approximately 10-30% of tomatoes are wasted during processing. tomato pomace consists of crushed skin and seeds of tomatoes. seeds might be considered as a potential source of vegetable oil. the extracted oil is high in unsaturated fatty acids, namely linoleic acid. the extracted oil after purification or refining might be employed for consumption. the object of this study was to evaluate the e...

This research reported a new method of removal of Pb+2from water by using a nano zero valent iron (nZVI) assisted ultrasonic wave. At first, nZVI was synthesized by an ultrasound assisted method. Particles morphology and surface composition were characterized by FESEM, XRD, and EDX. The XRD patterns showed that the crystallinity of the nZVI prepared using ultrasonic conditions was hi...

Thistle oil (INCI: Silybum marianum seed oil) is known as an anti-oxidant, moisturizing and skin regenerating cosmetic raw material. Nanoemulsions are a new form of cosmetic product showing very good user properties (ease of spreading over the skin with no greasy feeling). Moreover, due to their structure, they can also transport both hydrophilic and hydrophobic active substances to the skin. T...

tea is one of the most important medicinal plants which have a considerable effect on the treatment of cardiovascular disease and cancer. the drying process of tea leaves is carried out by hot air flow which consumes high level energy. the aim of the recent research was to investigate the procedure of high power ultrasound-assisted drying process of tea leaves. hybrid variety of chinese tea was...
