    Chromatography, or the separation of a mixture by passing it through a medium that contains components of varying attractive properties in a suspension, is a helpful tool in the scientific community and beyond. Although chromatography is mainly associated with the separation of colors, chromatography is the gateway to scientific advancement and an increase in public health initiatives. Environmental testing laboratories, such as Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), utilize chromatography to test

    Separation and identification of spinach pigments by Paper Chromatography. Pigments are relatively non-polar organic substances that are why I obtained the separation with the help of the petroleum ether and acetone solution. I was able to obtain two main types of chlorophyll: chlorophyll a which is bluish or dark-green

    The extracted organic compounds were analyzed by use of gas chromatography coupled to a mass spectrometer. The sample extracts were injected into a Gas Chromatograph (Agilent 6890) fixed with a capillary column (DB-35MS). The Mass spectrometer used was an Agilent 5973 detector. The temperature of the column was first set at 70 degrees centigrade for 1 minute, then increased at a rate of 10 degrees per minute up to 300 degrees then held at that temperature for 10 minutes. The ion source & the transfer

    CHE 333-03 11/21/16 Formal Report HPLC Determination of Caffeine in Analgesic Powders ABSTRACT: Components containing caffeine were composed into stock solutions. These solutions were diluted to 1: 10 substance: mobile phase. A stock solution of caffeine was diluted 1:50. A sequence of diluted caffeine solutions were prepared for use as a standard (ppm): 1, 2, 4, and 10. Solutions of acetaminophen, acetylsalicylic acid, and Goody’s Powder were developed to differentiate chromatographic peaks

    very sensitive to light and rapidly oxidize in its presence. A great variety of analytical methods can be used for psilocybin identification and evaluation. Amongst them are thin layer chromatography, gas chromatography used along with mass spectrometry , infrared spectroscopy and high performance liquid chromatography. Treatment Although prescribed use of psilocybin is rare nowadays for medicinal purposes; many tests have been done on its medicinal uses in patients with personality disorders

    Group 1: Gravity Separation Definition of Gravity Separation: Gravity separation is an industrial method of separating two components, either a suspension, or dry granular mixture where separating the components with gravity is sufficiently practical: i.e. the components of the mixture have different specific weight. Gravity separation uses differences in specific gravity (SG) between various minerals to achieve a separation, and is normally a wet process although examples of dry gravity separators

    Thus, as illustrated in Fig. 1d [5, 6], a high │dT/d(fS)1/2│ suggests a slow transverse growth rate for the columnar grains to grow toward each other to bond together and resist cracking. A high │dT/d(fS)1/2│ also suggests that the grains can grow much more slowly in the transverse direction than in the forward direction z, thus forming a long liquid channel along the grain boundary. Because of the viscosity of liquid, a long grain-boundary channel can resist the flow of the intergranular liquid
