Single particle-inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (SP-ICPMS) is a promising technique able to generate the number based-particle size distribution (PSD) of nanoparticles (NPs) in aqueous suspensions. However, SP-ICPMS analysis not consolidated as routine-technique yet and typically applied real test samples with unknown composition. This work presents methodology detect, quantify characterise number-based PSD Ag-NPs different environmental (drinking lake waters), derived from...
Microalgae are potential sources for the sustainable production of valuable chemicals including polyphenols, pigments, and ω-3 PUFAs. However, successful exploitation these high value compounds in food, healthcare pharmaceutical sectors depends greatly on their effective separation, identification, analysis after recovery from biomass. The findings this review paper illustrated that chromatographic methods coupled to different types detectors have been used as a crucial part research...
Australian finger limes (Citrus australasica L.), an unusual citrus due to its unique pulp with a caviar-like appearance, has reached the global market as promising source of bioactive compounds that promote health. This research was, therefore, performed shed light on bioactivity and composition different parts Citrus L. (peel pulp). Initial ultrasound-assisted extraction using MeOH:H2O (80:20, v/v) was carried out. After that, four fractions (hexane, ethyl acetate, butanol water) were...
The release of hormones into the environment due to land application biosolids and manure is a cause concern for their potential impacts. This paper presents development rapid sensitive method, based on extraction, analysis 13 in poultry manure. A simultaneous derivatization hydroxyl ketone groups was carried out determination by GC–MS/MS. method validated three matrices (sewage sludge, manure, broiler litter). Recoveries from spiked samples at concentration levels (50, 25, 10 ng/g) ranged...
The frenetic lifestyle in the developed countries has driven us to be deficient some nutrients, which may overcome by supplements. Microalgae, like spirulina (Arthrospira platensis) and chlorella (Chlorella ssp.) are widely used as supplements due their high contents of macro- micronutrients. Chlorella can grown naturally a range water bodies, showing adaptability harsh environments. They mainly produced with poor quality sometimes inexistent legislation, vector micropollutant introduction...
Abstract A multiresidue method was developed for the determination of 19 emerging organic contaminants (pharmaceutical drugs, personal care products, and bisphenol A) in poultry manure. Lyophilized samples manure were extracted by ultrasound‐assisted matrix solid‐phase dispersion extracts analyzed gas chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry after derivatization. Analysis spiked samples, at levels ranging from 25 to 150 ng/g, gave satisfactory recovery results all compounds, values 67...
Abstract An analytical method was developed for the simultaneous determination in poultry manure of 41 organic contaminants belonging to different chemical classes: pesticides, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, polychlorinated biphenyls, and polybrominated diphenyl ethers. Poultry extracted with a modified QuEChERS method, extracts were analyzed by isotope dilution GC/MS. Recovery these from samples spiked at levels ranging 25 100 ng/g satisfactory all compounds. The procedure provided LODs...
