In this work, a headspace-solid-phase micro-extraction (HS-SPME) combined with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) method for multielemental speciation of organometallic compounds of mercury, lead and tin in water samples was upgraded by the introduction of tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) as detection technique. The analytical method is based on the ethylation with NaBEt(4) and simult...

A basic micromechanical model for deformation of solids with only one tuning parameter (weakening epsilon) is introduced. The model can reproduce observed stress-strain curves, acoustic emissions and related power spectra, event statistics, and geometrical properties of slip, with a continuous phase transition from brittle to ductile behavior. Exact universal predictions are extracted using mea...

this paper reports on synthesis of a magnetic adsorbent for wastewater treatment purposes. in this regard, platanus orientalis waste leaves were chosen as a cheap material for preparing the magnetic adsorbent by loading magnetite nanoparticles on it. the synthesized adsorbent was characterized using scanning electron microscope and x-ray diffractometer. then, it was used for magnetic solid phas...

abstract mefenamic acid is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (nsaid) that has analgesic,anti-infammatory and antipyretic actions. it is used to relieve mild to moderate pains. solid-phase extraction of mefenamic acid by a polymer grafted to silica gel is reported . poly allyl glycidyl ether/iminodiacetic acid-co-n, n-dimethylacrylamide was synthesized and grafted to silica gel and was used ...

a new method for the separation and preconcentration of trace amounts of cadmium in food and water samples by magnetic solid phase extraction (mspe) with fe3o4 magnetic nanoparticles (fe3o4-mnps) and its determination by flame atomic absorption spectrometry has been developed. for this purpose, fe3o4-mnps were synthesized via chemical precipitation method. the extraction of cadmium ions from th...

powder activated carbon surface (ac) was grinded and modified and altered procedure thorough a facile and easy chemical reaction to appearance of 2-((3silylpropylimino)1-methyl) phenol (ac- (spimp)). subsequently, this novel sorbent efficiently applied for the extraction and preconcentration of some metal ions from real samples. preliminary the influences of variables such as ph, amounts of rea...

this study focus on the preparation of two supports including activated carbon derived from medlar and palladium nanoparticles loaded on activated carbon (pd-np-ac). subsequently, both adsorbent modified with a novel schiff base chelating agent and their potential applicability for determination of trace amounts of metal ions from aqueous solution has been investigated. the method is based on c...

Amongst organophosphate pesticides, the one most widely used and common environmental contaminant is diazinon; thus methods for its trace analysis in environmental samples must be developed. Use of diazinon imprinted polymers such as sorbents in solid phase extraction, is a prominent and novel application area of molecular imprinted polymers. For diazinon extraction, high performance liquid chr...
