abstract: in this study, an analytical method is developed to determine 15 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (pahs) in olive and refined pomace olive oils using hplc coupled with a fluorescence detector. the standardised method of ultrasound-assisted solvent extraction consisted of liquid–liquid extraction with organic solvent and purification on c18 and florisil bonded-phase cartridges was modi...

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...

a comparative study of ultrasound-assisted extraction (uae) and hydro-distillation was performed for fast extraction of estragole from tarragon (artemisia dracunculus l.) dried leaves. several influential parameters of the uae procedure in the extraction of estragole (type of solvent, extraction cycles, solvent to material ratio, irradiation time and particle size) were investigated and optimiz...

Various novel techniques including ultrasound-assisted extraction, microwave-assisted extraction and supercritical fluid extraction have been developed for the extraction of medicinal plants in order to shorten the extraction time, decrease the solvent consumption, increase the extraction yield, and enhance the quality of extracts. This review was conducted to introduce and compare the conventi...

In the present study, ultrasound-assisted extraction of oil from rice bran was investigated through response surface methodology (RSM), where process variables were amplitude level (50–100%) and sonication time (5-30 min). It was found that all process variables had significant (p<0.05) effects on the response variable. A central composite design (CCD) was used to determine the optimum process ...

Ultrasound-assisted extraction is evaluated as a simpler and more effective alternative to conventional extraction methods for the extraction of bioactive compounds from natural product. This study investigated the use of ultrasound-assisted extraction to extract three dibenzylbutyrolactone lignans, including tracheloside, hemislienoside, and arctiin from Hemistepta lyrata. Factors such as extr...

an ultrasound-assisted surfactant-enhanced emulsification microextra- ction (uaseme) coupled with high performance liquid chromatography-diode array detection has been developed for the extraction and determination of thiopental in serum and urine samples. a simple microextraction method based on emulsification of organic extraction solvent in aqueous sample using an ionic surfactant and withou...
