Thallium is widely found in nature, but the only inorganic stones full of this element are crookesite and lorandit. It isalso found in pyrites of copper, lead and inorganic stones. The element and its compositions are toxic and harmful to theenvironment; therefore, its application requires caution and further research. It is important to develop sensitive andaccurate analytical methods to deter...

QuEChERS sample preparation was optimized using solvent extraction with acetonitrile and dispersive-solid phase extraction with primary and secondary amine sorbents, and validated for high-performance liquid chromatographic determination of nine steroids commonly used to adulterate herbal medicines: such as triamcinolone, prednisolone, hydrocortisone, methylprednisolone, betamethasone, dexameth...

An affinity-dye, Cibacron Blue 3GA (CB), derivatized organic salt [BMIM]3[CB] was synthesized for lysozyme extraction. This compound was formed by mixing an ionic liquid (IL) [BMIM][Cl] and the silver salt of CB. Liquid-liquid extractions of lysozyme from the aqueous and [BMIM]3[CB] in [BMIM][PF6] solutions were examined in this study. The transfer of lysozyme from the aqueous phase to the IL p...

in this study, a sensitive method of dispersive liquid phase microextraction based on ion-pair combined with the flame atomic absorption spectrometry was proposed for the determination of trace ni(ii) using aliquat 336-chloride as ion pair agent. several factors which have effect on  the microextraction efficiency of ni(ii), such as ph, extraction and dispersive solvent type and their volume, c...

Objective(s):The present study reports the development and validation of a sensitive and rapid extraction method beside high performance liquid chromatographic method for the determination of crocetin in human serum. Materials and Methods:The HPLC method was carried out by using a C18 reversed-phase column and a mobile phase composed of methanol/water/acetic acid (85:14.5:0.5 v/v/v) at the flow...

Isomeric triterpenic acids of oleanolic acid (OA) and ursolic acid (UA) both have very low ultraviolet absorption and always exist in the same plant, so the separation and simultaneous determination of them have been a difficult task. In this study, a sensitive method combining dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME) with HPLC-UV was developed for the extraction and determination of OA...

A simple, rapid, and environmentally friendly microextraction termed COU-2-D-μ-SPE has been developed for the analysis of three penicillins (i.e., oxacillin, cloxacillin, and dicloxacillin) in milk samples. An ordered mesoporous carbon, COU-2, was synthesized and used as the sorbent in dispersive micro-solid phase for the extraction of selected penicillins prior to high-performance liquid chrom...
