Electromembrane Peptide Extraction
A research group at the University of Oslo (Oslo, Norway) developed a method for electromembrane extraction of eight peptides from an aqueous acidic solution using a thin supported liquid membrane in a porous hollow fiber.
A research group at the University of Oslo (Oslo, Norway) developed a method for electromembrane extraction of eight peptides from an aqueous acidic solution using a thin supported liquid membrane in a porous hollow fiber. The peptides were induced to migrate through the membrane and into an aqueous acidic acceptor solution inside the fiber by a 50-V potential applied across the membrane. Peptide recoveries varied according to peptide structure. Peptide polarity and number of ionized groups also affected extraction efficiency.

RAFA 2024 Highlights: Contemporary Food Contamination Analysis Using Chromatography
November 18th 2024A series of lectures focusing on emerging analytical techniques used to analyse food contamination took place on Wednesday 6 November 2024 at RAFA 2024 in Prague, Czech Republic. The session included new approaches for analysing per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), polychlorinated alkanes (PCAS), Mineral Oil Hydrocarbons (MOH), and short- and medium-chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs and MCCPs).
