The potential of lignocellulosic biomass for magnetic solid phase extraction of naproxen from saliva samples.

This paper presents a study on the application of magnetic biochars derived from three distinct biomass sources: almond (AMBC), walnut (WMBC), and peanut (PMBC) shells for magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE) of naproxen, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, from human saliva prior to LC-MS analysis. The three magnetic biochars were synthesized and characterized through IR, XRD, SEM, and EDX analyses. This work explored the factors influencing extraction efficiency using these three bioadsorbents through experimental design.

Green magnetic snail shell hydroxyapatite sorbent for reliable solid-phase extraction of pesticides from water samples.

To address sustainability issues, the green synthesis of nanomaterials has recently received considerable attention. This article addresses a novel and cost-effective adsorbent for the extraction of eight phenyl-N-methylcarbamate insecticides from water samples. We first synthesized a magnetite/hydroxyapatite nanocomposite using snail shell powder via an environmental friendly approach.
