The objective of this study is to extract phenolic compounds from nettle and melissa by using microwave and ultrasound and to compare these methods with conventional extraction and maceration, respectively. Extraction of melissa essential oil was also studied. In extraction of phenolics, effects of extraction time (5-20 min for microwave; 5-30 min for ultrasound) and solid to solvent ratio (1:10, 1:20, 1:30 g/ml) on total phenolic content (TPC) were investigated for microwave and ultrasound extractions. Different powers were also studied for ultrasound extraction. In addition, effect of solvent type (water, ethanol, ethanol-water mixture at 50:50 v/v) was analyzed and water was found as better solvent. Optimum conditions for microwave extraction of phenolics were determined as 10 min and 1:30 solid to solvent ratio for nettle, and as 5 min and 1:30 solid to solvent ratio for melissa. TPC at these conditions for nettle and melissa extracts were 24.6 and 145.8 mg GAE/g dry material, respectively. Optimum conditions for ultrasound extraction was 30 min, 1:30 solid to solvent ratio, and 80% power for nettle and 20 min, 1:30 solid to solvent ratio, and 50% power for melissa. TPC at these conditions for nettle and melissa were 23.9 and 105.5 mg GAE/g dry material, respectively. Major phenolic acids were determined as naringenin in nettle and rosmarinic acid in melissa. Major aromatic compounds in melissa essential oil were found as limonene, citral, and caryophyllene oxide. Yields of essential oil obtained by microwave and hydrodistillation were 4.1 and 1.8 mg oil/g dry sample, respectively.

Determination of Selected Endocrine Disrupter Compounds at Trace Levels in Sewage Sludge Samples Sonmez, Munire Selcen; Muz, Melis; Komesli, Okan Tarik; BAKIRDERE, Sezgin; Gökçay, Celal Ferdi (2012-09-01) Simultaneous determination of endocrine disrupter compounds (EDCs), namely diltiazem, progesterone, benzylbutylphthalate (BBP), estrone, and carbamazepine (Cbz) were performed by using high performance LC-electrospray tandem MS. The ultrasound-aided sequential extraction of sludge samples was optimized to increase extraction efficiencies of the analytes; ranging between 93.0-98.3% recovery. The limit of detection values for diltiazem, progesterone, BBP, estrone, and Cbz were found as 0.78, 0.72, 0.24, 0.75,...
Improving the Recovery of Phenolic Compounds from Spent Coffee Grounds (SCG) by Environmentally Friendly Extraction Techniques Okur, İlhami; Söyler, Ulviye Betül; Öztop, Halil Mecit; Alpas, Hami (MDPI AG, 2021-1-25) The aim of this study was to investigate and compare the effects of different extraction techniques (high hydrostatic pressure-assisted extraction (HHPE), ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE), and classical solvent extraction (CSE)) on phenolic compounds from spent coffee grounds (SCG). Different HHPE parameters (300, 400 and 500 MPa at 25 °C for 5, 10 and 15 min) and UAE parameters (40%, 50%, and 60% amplitude at 25 °C for 5, 10 and 15 min) were used. These techniques were compared with CSE (at 50 °C for 3...
Rapid ionic liquid-supported nano-hybrid composite reinforced hollow-fiber electromembrane extraction followed by field-amplified sample injection-capillary electrophoresis: An effective approach for extraction and quantification of Imatinib mesylate in human plasma Forough, Mehrdad; Farhadi, Khalil; Eyshi, Ali; Molaei, Rahim; Khalili, Hedayat; Kouzegaran, Vahid Javan; Matin, Amir Abbas (2017-09-01) The focus of this study is development of a new, convenient, rapid and sensitive electromembrane extraction approach (based on an ionic liquid-supported MWCNTs/ZnO reinforced hollow fiber, for the first time) as an off-line sample clean-upipreconcentration method coupled with capillary electrophoresis (CE-UV) using field-amplified sample injection (FASI) for quantification of Imatinib mesylate in human plasma. The nano-hybrid sorbent, coated by 1-octyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide ionic liquid (E0M1m]Br) in ...
Comparison of microwave and ultrasound-assisted extraction techniques for leaching of phenolic compounds from nettle Ince, Alev Emine; Şahin, Serpil; Şümnü, Servet Gülüm (2014-10-01) In this study, extraction of phenolic compounds from nettle by microwave and ultrasound was studied. In both microwave and ultrasound-assisted extractions, effects of extraction time (5-20 min for microwave; 5-30 min for ultrasound) and solid to solvent ratio (1:10, 1:20, and 1:30 g/mL) on total phenolic content (TPC) were investigated. Effects of different powers (50 % and 80 %) were also studied for ultrasound-assisted extraction. In microwave-assisted extraction, the optimum TPC of the extracts (24.64 +/...
Extraction of phenolic compounds from melissa using microwave and ultrasound INCE, Alev Emine; Şahin, Serpil; Şümnü, Servet Gülüm (2013-01-01) In this study, extraction of phenolic compounds from melissa by microwave and ultrasound was studied. In both the microwave and ultrasound extractions, the effects of extraction time (5-20 min for microwave; 5-30 min for ultrasound) and solid-to-solvent ratio (1:10, 1:20, and 1:30 g mL(-1)) on total phenolic content (TPC) were investigated. Effects of different powers (50% and 80%) were also studied for the ultrasound extraction. As a solvent, water was used. In microwave extractions, the highest TPC of ext...
