Classification of vegetable oils according to their botanical origin using n-alkane profiles established by GC-MS.
2013
n-Alkane profiles established by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) were used to classify vegetable oils according to their botanical origin. The n-alkanes present in corn, grapeseed, hazelnut, olive, peanut and sunflower oils were isolated by means of alkaline hydrolysis followed by silica gel column chromatography of the unsaponifiable fractions. The n-alkane fraction was constituted mainly of n-alkanes in the range C8-C35, although only those most abundant (15 n-alkanes, from 21 to 35 carbon No.) were used as original variables to construct linear discriminant analysis (LDA) models. Ratios of the peak areas selected by pairs were used as predictors. All the oils were correctly …
Determination of benperidol and its reduced metabolite in human plasma by high-performance liquid chromatography and electrochemical detection.
1991
An isocratic high-performance liquid chromatographic method with electrochemical detection for the quantification of benperidol and its suggested reduced metabolite TVX Q 5402 in human plasma is described. The method included a two-step solid-phase extraction on reversed-phase and cation-exchange material, followed by separation on a cyanopropyl silica gel column (5 microns; 250 mm x 4.6 mm I.D.). The eluent was 0.15 M acetate buffer (pH 4.7) containing 25% acetonitrile (w/w). Spiperone served as internal standard. The inclusion of the cation-exchange step provided sample purity higher than those achieved with other methods. After extraction of 1 ml of plasma, concentrations as low as 0.5 n…
Thin-layer chromatography of chlorinated anisoles and veratroles
1989
The thin-layer chromatography of chlorinated anisoles (methoxybenzenes) and veratroles (1,2-dimethoxybenzenes) has been examined on silica gel G60 and RP-18 thin-layer plates. More than fifty solvent systems were screened and some of them recommended for particular separations. Acetone was shown to be suitable for group separation of both chlorinated anisoles and veratroles on a silica gel G60 stationary phase having a very narrow range of RF values. On the other hand, benzene, dichloromethane and the various mixtures of light petroleum (b.p. 40–60°C) and a more polar eluent (such as diethyl ether, acetone or ethyl acetate) were recommended for separation of certain individual isomers. The …
Impact of the post-treatment conditions of parent silica on the silanization of n-octadecyl bonded silica packings in reversed-phase high-performance…
2001
Native mesoporous silica beads were subjected to a sequence of post-treatment procedure including hydrochloric acid treatment, calcination and subsequent rehydroxylation. The post-treated silica beads were converted into RP-18 silica by silanization with monochloro- and dimethoxy-n-octadecylsilanes, respectively. The influence of post-treatments and silanization conditions on the physico-chemical characteristics and on the chromatographic behaviour of the RP-silicas was studied. Also the changes of the pore structural parameters and the silanol group densities during the post-treatment and silanization were assessed.
Quality control of commercial mustard by thin-layer chromatography
2005
Horseradish samples ( Cochlearis armoracia L. ) and mustard samples ( Sinapis alba L. ) were extracted with 70:30 ( v/v ) methanol-water in accordance with ISO method 91671. Samples of commercial mustard with and without horseradish were submitted to the same extraction procedure. Separation of the active compounds from these samples were performed on silica gel 60 plates with preconcentration zone and on silica gel F 254 high-performance thin-layer chromatography plates, with iso -propanol-25% ammonia, 90 + 10 ( v/v ), containing different volumes of distilled water (1, 2, 3, or 5 parts), as mobile phases. After development the compounds were visualized in UV light at λ = 254 nm or by expo…
Toxicity of binary mixtures of Cu, Cr and As to the earthworm Eisenia andrei
2020
AbstractChromated copper arsenate (CCA) mixtures were used in the past for wood preservation, leading to large scale soil contamination. This study aimed at contributing to the risk assessment of CCA-contaminated soils by assessing the toxicity of binary mixtures of copper, chromium and arsenic to the earthworm Eisenia andrei in OECD artificial soil. Mixture effects were related to reference models of Concentration Addition (CA) and Independent Action (IA) using the MIXTOX model, with effects being related to total and available (H2O and 0.01 M CaCl2 extractable) concentrations in the soil. Since only in mixtures with arsenic dose-related mortality occurred (LC50 92.5 mg/kg dry soil), it wa…
La hermenéutica materialista
2014
Adorno formula per la prima volta il programma della Teoria Critica come "ermeneutica materialista". Dopo la "svolta ermeneutica" della filosofia nella seconda metà del ventesimo secolo, questo saggio cerca di stabilire il profilo dell’ermeneutica di Adorno. Come una critica dell’idealismo semantico e di tutti gli idealismi, questa ermeneutica fissa un nuovo statuto per la filosofia dopo Hegel, in un dialogo critico con le scienze, con la "genealogia" di Nietzsche, con l’"inconscio" di Freud, e con un importante re-interpretazione dell’undicesima tesi su Feuerbach di Marx.
Cisplatin derivative loaded in mesoporous MCM-41: preparation and characterization
2014
The aim of this study is to design and investigate a new material constituted by mesoporous silica MCM-41 and a new cisplatin derivative, cis-PtCl2(DMSO)HL]•2DMSO, where HL = 7-amino-2-(methylthio)[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-6-carboxylic acid, having biological activity.[1] The high surface area and the tunable pore size of MCM-41 allow it for loading vast amounts of bioactive molecules, including biocides and drugs. Mesoporous silica MCM-41 was prepared in alkaline environment from tetraethoxysilane as Si source and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) as template. [2] Amino groups have been successfully grafted onto the pore surface with 3-aminopropyl triethoxysilane (APTES) in orde…
Microwave-assisted chemical modification of g-C3N4 for photoinduced processes: organic degradation, hydrogen production and selective oxidation of al…
2023
g-C3N4 powders were treated by means of the microwave technique in three different aqueous and organic media (HNO3, NaOH and N,N-dimethylformamide). All powders were analyzed by XRD reveling that g-C3N4 maintains its structure. The morphology of the samples was analyzed with scanning electron microscopy, where the micrographs reveals that the modifcation occurs on the surface of the g-C3N4. The photocatalytic activity of the samples was evaluated in the degradation of ciprofoxacin, hydrogen production and for the selective partial oxidation of 4-methoxybenzylalcohol (4-MBA) to its aldehyde. The sample treated with HNO3 (C3N4-HNO3) shows the best photocatalytic performance in the degradation…
Spectroscopic study of the interaction of Ni(II)-5-triethyl ammonium methyl salicylidene ortho-phenylendiiminate with native DNA.
2009
The interaction of native calf thymus DNA with the cationic Ni(II) complex of 5-triethyl ammonium methyl salicylidene ortho-phenylendiimine (NiL(2+)), in 1mM Tris-HCl aqueous solutions at neutral pH, has been monitored as a function of the metal complex-DNA molar ratio by UV absorption spectrophotometry, circular dichroism (CD) and fluorescence spectroscopy. The dramatic modification of the DNA CD spectrum, the appearance of a broad induced CD band in the range 350-400nm, the strong increase of the DNA melting temperature (T(m)) and the fluorescence quenching of ethidium bromide-DNA solutions, in the presence of increasing amounts of the NiL(2+) metal complex, support the existence of a tig…
