Supercritical CO2 extraction of essential oils from orange peel

1996

The supercritical fluid extraction of orange essential oil was studied using dehydrated orange peel (0.0538 kg H2O kg−1 dm) from naveline cultivars as raw material and CO2 as solvent. The effect of operation conditions was analyzed in a series of experiments at 313 and 323 K and pressures between 1 and 25 MPa. Furthermore, the effect of CO2 flow rate and particle size of orange peel was studied in the range of 0.5 to 3.5 kg h−1 and 0.1 to 10 mm. The subcritical CO2 dissolves hardly any essential oils, however, on reaching the critical point, the amount of essential oils dissolved increased with pressure, within the range of pressures considered in this study. Increasing solvent mass flow de…

Gas assisted mechanical expression (GAME) as a promising technology for oil and phenolic compound recovery from tiger nuts

2015

Abstract The aim of this work was to investigate the potential of gas assisted mechanical expression (GAME) process as an innovative technology for oil extraction and polyphenol recovery from tiger nuts. GAME process was first studied by varying the supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) and the mechanical expression (ME) pressures (10–30 MPa), then was compared to separate processes applied alone, using either SC-CO2 or ME. The results showed that the better conditions for GAME were found using 20 MPa for SC-CO2 and 30 MPa for ME. Under these conditions, 50% of oil was released from tiger nuts after 10 min extraction, compared to only 10% and 20% when using SC-CO2 and ME separately at 20 an…

Solubility of some pesticides in supercritical CO2

1988

The solubility limits of some pesticides (Linuron, Methoxychlor, Diclofopmethyl, Diclofop and 2,4-D) and of 3,4-dichloroaniline have been determined in supercritical CO2 at 200 bar and 40° C, using the Milton Roy sample preparation accessory SPATM. Depending on the polarity and vapour pressure of the investigated compounds, the solubility was found to be between 0.3 and 12 gl−1.

A simple and rapid DNA extraction method from leaves of grapevine suitable for polymerase chain reaction analysis.

2012

The genomic grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) DNA extraction is difficult because of secondary metabolites that interfere with DNA isolation procedures and subsequent applications. We developed a simple, rapid and efficient method for the extraction of genomic DNA from asymptomatic and pathogen-infected grape leaves. The protocol reported, based on a modified cetyl trimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) extraction procedure, allowed the rapid DNA extraction from little amounts of leaf material without employment of liquid nitrogen for initial tissue grinding. The protocol included polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) to bind phenolic compounds, β-mercaptoethanol to inhibit the oxidation of polyphenols, and a h…

Literature survey of the on-line preconcentration in flow-injection atomic spectrometric analysis

1992

The literature on the use of “on-line” preconcentration in flow injection atomic spectrometric analysis is reviewed, taking into account its application both in flame and electrothermal atomic absorption methods as well as in plasma emission spectrometry. The basis of the different preconcentration approaches, such as liquid-liquid extraction, column preconcentration and “on-line” precipitation are discussed. The literature survey reveals the analytical performance of the developed methodologies.

Colorimetric method for the determination of vanadium with tannic acid in water and oils

1994

A new spectrophotometric method was developed to determine vanadium using tannic acid as a complexing reagent to form a coloured reaction product which can easily be extracted by 1-pentanol in the presence of cetylpyridinium. The developed method can successfully be applied to determine trace levels of 10 ng/ml of vanadium in natural waters without any preconcentration step. It can also determine less than 1 mg/kg of vanadium in edible oils and petroleum products.

Extraction of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons from cookies: a comparative study of ultrasound and microwave-assisted procedures.

2008

The chromatographic determination of 15 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in cookies has been improved in order to obtain a fast method with a low limit of detection through the combination of microwave-assisted extraction (MAE), oil saponification and solid-phase extraction clean-up before the injection of purified extracts in a C18 201TP52 (5 microm, 250 x 2.1 mm) column. Using acetonitrile-water as mobile phase, with a 50% to 95% w/w acetonitrile gradient for a fixed flow of 0.250 ml min(-1), 15 PAHs were separated in 45 min. The column temperature was maintained at 15 degrees C; and fluorimetric detection was made at a fixed excitation wavelength of 264 nm and emission measurement…

Cloning and characterization of new orphan nuclear receptors and their developmental profiles duringTenebriometamorphosis

1999

Five PCR fragments corresponding to a part of the DNA-binding domain of different hormone nuclear receptors were isolated from Tenebrio molitor mRNAs. The sequence identity of three of them with known Drosophila nuclear receptors strongly suggests that they are the Tenebrio orthologs of seven-up, DHR3 and β-FTZ-F1, and thus named Tmsvp, TmHR3 and TmFTZ-F1. The full-length sequences of the other two were established. TmHR78 is either a new receptor of the DHR78 family or the same gene which has evolved rapidly, particularly in the E domain. TmGRF belongs to the GCNF1 family and its in vitro translated product binds to the extended half site TCAAGGTCA with high affinity. The periods of expres…
