Migration of plasticizers from poly(vinyl chloride) and multilayer infusion bags using selective extraction and GC-MS.

Flexible poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) is widely used in the pharmaceutical industry for the manufacture of medical devices (tubes, probes, bags, primary packaging, etc.). The objective of the present study was to develop a procedure to evaluate the migration potential of nine plastic additives in aqueous infusion bags (NaCl 0.

Antioxidant and Biological Activities of Proteinaceous Extract from Algerian Glycine max Plant.

Objective: Glycine max is commonly used in Algeria for treatment of anemia deficiency and osteoporosis, it ranks first in terms of vegetal proteins. The experiment was aimed at characterizing the proteinaceous Glycine max extract and evaluating its antioxidant, biological and hematological potential.

Methodology: Extraction of proteinaceous materials from Glycine max plant was undertaken using water and n-hexane as extracting media.

Microemulsion breakdown by pervaporation technique: effect of the alkyl chain length of n-alkanol, a cosurfactant of the microemulsion.

Two sets of microemulsions, cyclohexane- and water-rich ones, were prepared with the following n-alkanols as cosurfactants: n-propanol, n-butanol, n-pentanol, and n-hexanol. The results showed the influence of the alkyl chain length of the n-alkanol on the permselectivity properties of the pervaporation technique in the breakdown of the microemulsions. The variations of the total flux rate J and the enrichment factor beta were in parallel with the effect of the cosurfactant on the swelling extent of the PDMS membrane.

Use of inverse gas chromatography to account for the pervaporation performance in monitoring the oxidation of primary alcohols.

The oxidation of n-propanol and n-butanol to their corresponding aldehydes was monitored by the pervaporation technique. Mass transfer phenomenon that occurs in the pervaporation process was confirmed by the results of inverse gas chromatography. Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), a hydrophobic polymer widely employed as a membrane in pervaporation technique, was evaluated as a stationary phase in this study.

Use of inverse gas chromatography to account for the pervaporation performance in the microemulsion breakdown.

Mass transfer phenomenon that occurs in the pervaporation process when applied to the microemulsion breakdown, was confirmed by the results of inverse gas chromatography. The stationary phase for this study was polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), a hydrophobic polymer employed as a membrane in the pervaporation technique. The retention times of the different molecule probes (toluene, cyclohexane, and n-butanol) gave an insight into the extent of the interactions between each of these molecules and the stationary phase; these molecules were the components of the two microemulsions in study.
