Fixed oil obtained from the seeds of Momordica tuberosa (Roxb) Cogn. fruits (family: Cucurbitaceae) was analyzed using GC-MS. Five compounds, namely palmitic acid (hexadecanoic acid), oleic acid (9-octadecenoic acid), stearic acid (octadecanoic acid), ?-eleostearic acid (9, 11, 13-octadecatrienoic acid) and gama-linolenic acid (6, 9, 12-octadecatrienoic acid) were found to be major compounds in fixed oil obtained from the seeds of M. tuberosa fruits. Physical constants saponification value, unsaponifiable matter and acid value were found to be 182.4, 1.56% w/w and 11.44 respectively.

Yashtimadhu ghrita is a single-herbal ghee formulation mentioned in the classical texts of Ayurveda and is indicated in sadya kshatavrana (an acute inflammatory condition or an acute wound associated with trauma). It also minimizes the pain related to the wound. The present study is intended to create a finger print profile of Yastimadhu ghrita through its pharmacognostical identification and the physico-chemical analysis.  The genuineness of the dry specimen of Yashtimadhu (Glycyrrhiza glabra Linn.) was confirmed through organoleptic evaluation and cross-sectional microscopy. Yashtimadhu ghrita was prepared  as per the Sneha paka (preparation of unctuous formulations using ghee, oil etc.) procedure mentioned in Sarngadhara Samhita Madhyama khanda and the standard operative procedures specified in Ayurvedic pharmacopoeia of India. The test result of the finished product shows Acid value 6.7, saponification value 213.4, and Refractive index value1.455 at room temperature, Iodine value 38.7, LOD 0.64. TLC and HPTLC were carried out for the characterization of the plant material in an appropriate solvent system. A total of nine spots were distinguished in 254 nm and five spots in 366 nm during the HPTLC scanning. The Rf value pertaining to the spots were identical in the methanolic extract which indicates the presence of definite constituents in Yashtimadhu ghrita.

Abstract The current study aimed to determine the phytochemicals present in the leaf extract of two papaya varieties grown in southern Iraq. The phytochemicals present in the ethanolic extract of papaya leaves were identified using the GC-MS detection system. The results showed the presence of more than thirty phytochemicals in the ethanolic extract of papaya leaves. The main phytochemicals present in papaya leaf extract in terms of their relative abundance are Oleic Acid, Tocopherol, Sitosterol, Neophytadiene, Butyl 9,12,15-octadecatrienoate, n-Hexadecanoic acid, Phytol, Tetramethyl-2-hexadecen, Dasycarpidan-1-methanol, acetate (ester), Campesterol, Squalene, Octadecenoic acid, Stigmasterol and D-Limonene. The present study revealed that the papaya leaf extract was composed of a variety of metabolites and therapeutic active substances, in addition to novel substances. These substances can be isolated and evaluated experimentally to confirm their biological and medicinal activities as well as verify their mechanism of action.

Avocado and Avocado oil are high in monosaturated oleic acid, a heart-healthy fatty acid that is believed to be one of the main reasons for the health benefits of olive oil. This study, was therefore carried out to determine the physicochemical and proximate composition of the seed and rind of avocado pear with the extraction and characterization of oil obtained from the seed and rind using solvent extraction. The phytochemical screening was also carried out on the seed and rind of avocado pear oil. The moisture contents were (51.05% and 71.77%) for the seed and rind respectively. The ash content of the unripe seed and rind were (0.52% and 0.55%) respectively. The fat (lipid) content in both the unripe seed and rind oil were (21.41g and 9.53 g) respectively. The unripe rind sample was richer in protein (6.4%) and unripe seed being lower (3.04%) to the rind. The crude fibre content for the seed and rind oil were (51.2 g and 2.54 g) respectively. Saponification value of the oil from unripe seed had a higher value of 258.82 mg KOH/g and for unripe rind was 203.47 mg KOH/g. The peroxide value for oil obtained from both unripe seed and rind of Persea americana were 0.91 mg/kg and 0.33 mg/kg respectively. Acid value was low in the unripe seed with a mean value of 0.057 mg KOH/g. It was observed that the Acid value for unripe rind was 0.058 mg KOH/g. The iodine value for rind was 182.85 (gI2/100 g), the seed oil contains 53.78 (gI2/100 g) of iodine. The refractive index was 1.21 and 1.35 for the unripe seed and rind oil respectively. The pH of the various avocado pear extracts also showed their slightly acidic nature.

Abstract The present study was aimed to explore the characterization of polyhydroxy butrate extracted from the bacterial strain under optimized conditions for the production of bioplastic. Under optimized fermentation conditions, Polyhydroxy butrate (PHB) was extracted and subjected to examine their properties via Thin Layer Chromotogram (TLC), Gas Chromotogram- Mass Spectrometer (GC-MS), Fourier Transform Infrared spectrum (FTIR). The presence of a brown spot in the TLC plate indicates the presence of hydroxylgroup which is similar to the polymer group. GC-MS analysis of extracted PHB shows peaks at the retention time of 3.8, 11.6 which is corresponding to octadecanoic acid, hexadecanoic acid, butyl -2-ethylester confirms the presence of polymeric nature in the extracted PHB. The absorption bands of FTIR at 1719–1720 cm −1 indicate the presence of C=O group of PHB. The absorption peaks at wave numbers 500-1000 cm -1 , 1055 cm -1 and 1230 cm -1 denotes (OH) group, (C–O) stretch and (C=O) ester group. From these results, it was confirmed that the extracted PHB is having the potential to replace petroleum plastic.

In this research, new chemistry is explored through a simple, efficient and cheap method to synthesize new surfactants from palm oil fatty acids. Oleic acid, which is one of the major fatty acids in palm oil, has been used as a starting material for the synthesis of surfactants. This study focuses on the synthesis and characterization of bolaform surfactants from oleic acid. For this purpose, two steps reaction will be carried out: Firstly, consisted of hydrobromination of oleic acid followed by reaction of 10-bromo-octadecanoic acid with ethane-1,2-dithiol and butane-1,2-dithiol. During the first stage of the reaction, hydrobromination of oleic acid was carried out by adding hydrobromic acid into the oleic acid. The reaction was carried out in benzene as solvent at 30°C and atmospheric pressure. This reaction gives 73% yield of 10-bromo-octadecanoic acid and it yield a black brownish liquid which have the m/z 363.2056 by ESI-MS(ToF) and –CH2-CHBr-CH2-shift (4.02 ppm) was well defined in1H-NMR. The separation of 10-bromo-octadecanoic acid was done through thin layer chromatography (TLC) with chloroform and methanol as the eluent and silica plate grade 60 F254as the stationary phase. The second stage of reaction was reacting the 10-bromo-octadecanoic acid with ethane-1,2-dithiol and butane-1,2-dithiol in THF as the solvent and 1,8-Diazabicyclo [5.4.0] undec-7-ene (DBU) as the catalyst respectively. These reactions were carried out at 30°C and atmospheric pressure. Product obtained was a two layers black brownish liquid with white colour precipitate gives m/z: 659.4813 for ethane-1,2-dithiol and m/z:686.5278 for butane-1,4-dithiol respectively using ESI-MS (ToF) mass spectroscopy. Separation was done on both bolaform surfactants through thin layer chromatography (TLC) with hexane and ethyl acetate as eluent and silica plate grade 60 F254as stationary phase, and finally followed by column chromatography. These two new surfactants will be tested for their physical-chemical properties as well as apply on nanomaterial stabilizer.

Atmospheric particulate samples were collected during January, February, April and May 2012, separately. Twenty-one fatty acids and seven dicarboxylic acids were measured by GC-MS. The results show that average mass concentrations of fatty acids are 809.24ng/m³, 545.34ng/m³, 386.96ng/m³ and dicarboxylic acids are 215.14 ng/m³, 156.45 ng/m³, 111.43 ng/m³ in PM10, PM2.5, PM1, respectively. Fatty acids and dicarboxylic acids concentrate mainly in the PM1. C11-C24 of fatty acids exhibit a significant even carbon predominances, but dicarboxylic acids present no parity preponderance. In the fatty acids, the concentration of hexadecanoic acid is the highest with that of octadecanoic acid followed; Nonandioic acid is the highest in dicarboxylic acids. The results of source apportionments indicate that the fatty acids are mainly related with human activities. Coal burning for heating is the most important source in January and February, but its contribution decreases sharply in April and May for fatty acids; The main source of dicarboxylic acids is photochemical reactions.
