The effectiveness of Soxhlet extraction as a simple method for GO rinsing as a precursor of high-quality graphene

Abstract

Graphite-oxide (GO) is a valuable compound produced by the chemical oxidation of graphite. The procedure for converting graphite into GO includes two steps: oxidation and subsequent rinsing. Proper rinsing is...

Extracting myricetin and dihydromyricetin simultaneously from Hovenia acerba seed by Ultrasound-Assisted extraction on a lab and small Pilot-Scale

“…Traditional plant extraction methods include microwave-assisted extraction [ 12 ], air flow crushing extraction [ 13 ], Soxhlet extraction [ 14 ], etc. However, irradiating raw materials for an extended period of time with microwaves requires a lot of energy, and focused irradiation produces too much heat, which denaturizes flavonoids and other heat-sensitive chemicals.…”

Shellac-mediated laser-induced reduced graphene oxide film on paper and fabric: exceptional performance in flexible fuel cell, supercapacitor and electrocardiography applications

“…28–31 Further, the approximate number of rGO layers formed in both paper and cloth samples was calculated according to the literature. 32–34 It was observed that the minimum average number of rGO layers ( N = 11) was obtained on paper samples and the maximum average number of rGO layers ( N = 77) was found for cloth substrates, as shown in Section S4 (ESI†).…”

Evaluation Teratogenicity of Phyllanthus Acidus (L.) Skeel Leaf Ethanol Extract in Pregnant Wistar Rats

“…In this study, an ethanol extract of P. acidus (EEPA) leaves was made using a hot extraction method using a Soxhlet at a temperature of 70°C, because it is considered more effective for extracting secondary metabolites present in simplicia so that it can be extracted and produce a larger extract yield without destroying the secondary metabolites which contained in the plants. The extraction results obtained a thick extract with a dark green color with a distinctive odor with a yield of 12.12% [12]. The characteristics of P. acidus leaf were checking the ash content, water-soluble and ethanol-soluble extract content, as well as checking the water content to determine the specifications of the plant in question to meet the quality standards of an ingredient to become a standardized herbal medicine.…”
