A beta-ray monitoring technique has been developed to measure the resin content during the manufacture of prepreg unidirectional tapes by solution impregnation process. A series of calibration relations have been obtained for aramid, carbon and glass fibres reinforced epoxy prepreg tapes, and good agreements with resin content have been shown by the beta-ray system and conventional solvent extraction method. Moreover, the effect of the variation of the fibre areal weight on measuring accuracy has been analysed.

A new simple and fast analytical method was developed to characterize the content of lipids and fatty acids in bread. First, fatty acids were determined by gas chromatography and then the content of lipids was calculated by using a conversion factor. This method gave very accurate results; it was three times faster than the conventional solvent extraction method and its consumption of solvent was much lower. The high sensitivity allowed the distribution of lipids in bread to be determined.

Pandan (Pandanus amaryllifolius Roxb.) leaves are widely used in Malaysia as a source of natural flavoring.  The major compound contributing to the characteristic flavour of Pandan is 2-acetyl-1-pyrroline (2AP). As the consumer requirement for use of natural flavours, extraction of components from natural sources has been sought. In this study, solvent extraction of 2AP from Pandan leaves was performed. The effect of solvent used during extraction process (i.e. methanol, ethanol, propanol) towards the yield of 2AP was investigated. The presence of 2AP was determined using GCMS. The results obtained showed that ethanol was the best solvent to extract 2AP from Pandan leaves compared to methanol as higher 2AP peak arises from ethanol chromatogram.  However there is no 2AP detected when propanol was used as solvent.  It is believed that polarity of the solvent plays an important role in the extraction of 2AP.

The study investigated the performance of chitosan and extracted pandan leaves towards treatment of textile wastewater by using flocculation process. Pandan leaves were extracted by using solvent extraction method. Flocculation process was conducted using a Jar test experiment. The effect of dosage, pH, and settling time on reduction of COD, turbidity and color of textile wastewater was studied. The results obtained found that chitosan was very effective for reduction of COD, turbidity, color and indicator for color. The best condition for COD and turbidity removal was achieved at 0.2 g dosage, pH 4 and 60 minutes of settling time. Under this condition, about 58 and 99% of COD and turbidity was removed, respectively. However, the results obtained using extracted pandan was opposite compared to the chitosan. Extracted pandan was not able to remove both COD and turbidity of the waste.
