FRACTIONATED EXTRACTION OF POLYPHENOLS FROM MATE TEA LEAVES USING A COMBINATION OF HYDROPHOBIC/ HYDROPHILIC NADES

Fractionated extraction of polyphenols from mate tea leaves using a combination of hydrophobic/ hydrophilic NADES

A new methodology for the selective extraction of antioxidants from mate tea leaves (and decaffeinated mate tea leaves), using different natural deep eutectic systems (NADES), is reported in this paper.A fractionated extraction was carried out and the optimization of the extraction conditions such as solid/liquid ratio, temperature, time, stirring

Variation of Water Depth on Normal and Skewed Broad Crested Weirs

This paper present the variation between brink and critical depths for free overfall, of water over two models of broad crested weirs with different edge, straight vertical and skewed with an angle (30)o.The discharge was measured for the two models and compared with calculated one observed from theoretical equation.The results showed that Candle H
