Radiolytic studies on some organic dyes in aqueous solutions
Radiolytic studies on four aqueous dye solutions were carried out. Colour bleaching of the dye solutions upon irradiation was followed by quantitative TLC. Spot comparison methods were used to determine the dependence of the Spot Area Weight (SAW) of the chromatographic spots on the spot content. A good linear relationship was obtained. The percentage changes of SAW values of the analysed dye ...

Flavor and Aroma Profile of Hops Using FET-Headspace on the Teledyne Tekmar Versa with GC/MS
Abstract To brewers and the brewing industry, hops is an important beer component because of the flavor and aromas imparted during the hops addition process. Consequently, anticipating and/or validating the flavor profile of a particular variety of hops, based on analytical techniques, has become an increasingly useful tool in the head brewer’s repertoire. Hops flavors and aromas are ...

Separation of colors and scents from candle wax
Separation and detection and additives from scented candles While electric lighting has have largely replaced candles as a light source, they are still popular for decorative purposes. Originally from bees’ wax, modern candles are typically made from paraffin or stearin. Often, coloring and scents are added to candles. These additives can be separated from the candle wax by chromatography. ...

Implication of an outer surface lipoprotein in adhesion of bifidobacterium bifidum to caco-2 cells
We found that the human intestinal isolate Bifidobacterium bifidum MIMBb75 strongly adhered to Caco-2 cells. Proteinase K and lithium chloride treatments showed that proteins play a key role in MIMBb75 adhesion to Caco-2 cells. By studying the cell wall-associated proteins, we identified a surface protein, which we labeled BopA. We purified the protein chromatographically and found that it ...

Analysis of Geosmin and 2-Methylisoborneol Utilizing the Stratum PTC and Aquatek 70
Abstract Geosmin and 2-Methylisoborneol are organic compounds that have a distinct scent. These compounds also have an extremely low odor detection threshold and because of this, many drinking water laboratories require detection levels of below 10ppt. This application note investigates the detection of Geosmin and 2-Methylisoborneol at a one part per trillion (ppt) level utilizing Purge and Trap ...

Hydrogen Performance for Carrier Gas
Owing to the worldwide helium shortage, many labs are facing supply difficulties of helium, one of the most commonly used carrier gases and as a consequence are facing rapid price increases. Many chromatography labs are therefore looking for alternative carrier gases and for many GC applications, hydrogen provides a good, in some cases better, alternative to helium. The perceived danger of having ...

Experimental Determination of LOD for VOCs in Ambient Air Measured by Auto-GCs and Comparison with Reference Methods
Abstract Automatic gas chromatograph (auto-GCs) manufacturers perform an experimental method for a simple, rapid, and low-cost detection limit evaluation for volatile organic compounds in ambient air. The principle is the estimation of a minimum area of a peak. It is a relevant area value that discerns a real peak from the ground noise. This experimental limit of detection is equal to the minimum ...
