The aim of this study was to investigate the suitability of Pressurized Liquid Extraction (PLE) and Supercritical Fluid Extraction (SFE) for Quercus robur bark and Artemisia vulgaris extraction. PLE of Q. robur and A. vulgaris were carried out at dif...

The use of low-cost biowaste adsorbents for the removal of toxic metal ions from aqueous solutions offers significant environmental benefits. This research evaluated the adsorption and recovery of Cd2+ and Pb2+ ions in batch and column modes with luf...

This study investigates the environmental significance of ciprofloxacin as an emerging contaminant and the need for effective degradation methods. The chemical coprecipitation method was used in this study to prepare the Zn-Cu-Ni composite silicate,...

Sample preparation is a critical step in the analytical process. Apart from the traditional sample cleanup approaches, microextraction-based techniques have attracted much attention in recent years and especially from researchers working in the analy...

Salt lakes are a rich source of metals used in various fields. Rubidium is found in small amounts in salt lakes, but extraction technology on an industrial scale has not been developed completely. Clathrate hydrates are crystalline compounds formed b...

The vapor–liquid equilibrium (VLE) data of the ternary system methanol–methyl formate–methylal was measured at atmospheric pressure using a modified Rose equilibrium kettle with vapor–liquid double circulation method. The expe...

Miniaturized solid-based approaches have added an eco-friendly dimension to analytical procedures, establishing themselves as promising strategies for a wide range of applications. Among these, microextraction by packed sorbent (MEPS) stands out due...

Sinapine adsorption was studied on four weak cation exchanges at pHs ranging from 2 to 8. The best adsorption rate was observed with C106 resin at pH 4 (95.25%). The adsorption kinetics followed a pseudo-second-order model while the isotherm data bet...

Essential oils (EOs) have unique properties, such as antibacterial, antioxidant, and antiviral activities, which are beneficial in various industries, including cosmetics, food, and pharmaceuticals. In this study, the antioxidant and antimicrobial ac...

This research paper investigates the phytochemical profile, antioxidant activity, antidiabetic potential, and antibacterial activity of Myrtus communis berries. Two extraction methods were employed to obtain the extracts: solid–liquid ultrasoun...
