Liquid-Liquid Extraction Strategies for the Isolation of Bioactive Heterocyclic Compounds
Abstract: Liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) is a widely employed technique for the isolation of bioactive heterocyclic compounds from natural products, fermentation broths, and synthetic mixtures. The efficiency of LLE depends on several factors, including solvent selection, pH manipulation, salting-out effects, and temperature control. Conventional solvent systems, such as water-organic solvent pairs, are commonly used, while advanced strategies, including ionic liquids (ILs), deep eutectic solvents (DESs), ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE), and microwave-assisted extraction (MAE), …

Exploring the Boundless Applications of Chitosan: From Biomedical Marvel to Environmental Saviour
Abstract: Chitosan has attracted much interest because of its versatile properties and possible numerous usages in diversified industrial applications. Chitosan is having poor solubility in neutral and basic media and this is limiting its use. Chitosan is not a single polymer and do not have a defined structure. Chitosan is family of molecules with different composition, size & monomer units’ distribution and these characteristics have effect on the biological & technological …
