Fabrication of electrospun /PVA nanofibres: application in the removal of acidic drugs.

Novel electrospun /PVA blend nanofibres were fabricated for potential water treatment applications by blending a natural polymer extracted from (MW) roots with poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA). The fabricated nanofibres were shown to have a smooth and uniform morphology with an average diameter of 99 ± 0.025 nm.

Optimization of an Ultra-Sonication Extraction Method for Major Compounds Found in Using Design of Experiment.

Optimum extraction conditions are vital in quality control methods to enable accurate quantification of the compounds of interest. An ultra-sonication method was developed for the extraction of seven major compounds found in . Extraction temperature, time, power, frequency, percentage of ethanol in water and solvent to sample ratio were screened to access their significance on the percentage recovery of the compounds of interest.

Development of an HPLC-DAD Method for the Quantification of Ten Compounds from Lam. and Its Application in Quality Control of Commercial Products.

An HPLC-DAD separation method for the simultaneous quantification of ten compounds from plant was developed. The method was validated with pure solvent and different matrices of products. This method was found to be linear in the concentration range of 1 to 10 mg L for all the compounds in the solvent and from 3 to 10 mg kg in the different matrices.
