The photocatalytic activity of codoped photocatalysts were examined for the degradation BPA under solar light followed by adsorption-desorption equilibrium in dark for 20 mins. During the solar light irradiation experiments, stirring was maintained by magnetic stirrer to manage the solution homogeneous. A fixed amount of sample was withdrawn at different time intervals over 140 min and placed into different syringes and filters. The BPA concentration was determined using a UV-vis spectrophotometer (Perkin Elmer Lambda 35UV-Vis spectrophotometer) at λmax = 277 nm followed by centrifugation for the separation of catalyst. The percentage photodegradation of BPA was calculated using the equation (4): PercentagephotodegradationofBPA=CoCCo×100 Where, Co is the initial concentration of BPA and C is the concentration of BPA at time ‘t’.
For complete mineralization of the BPA solution, the total organic carbon (TOC) content was estimated using Schimadzu model TOC-VCPH Total Organic Carbon Analyzer.
Gas chromatography- mass spectroscopy (GC-MS) of the photo-degraded BPA wastewater was carried out to identify the various intermediates produced during photocatalytic degradation of BPA in wastewater. The GC-MS analysis was carried out by Perkin Elmer Clarus 500 GC coupled with a Perkin Elmer Clarus 500 mass spectrometer.

GC/FID analysis was carried out using a Perkin Elmer model 8500 GC (Perkin Elmer Italia Spa, Milano, Italy) equipped with a 30 m × 0.32 mm i.d., Elite-5MS capillary column (0.32 μm film thickness). The sample (0.5 μL) was injected in the “split” mode (1:30), with a column temperature program of 40 °C for 5 min, then increased to 260 °C at 4 °C/min and finally held at that temperature for 10 min. Injector and detector were set at 230 °C and 280 °C, respectively; the carrier gas was He with a head pressure of 12.0 psi.
GC/MS analysis was carried out using a Perkin Elmer Clarus 500 GC equipped with a Clarus 500 mass spectrometer, using the same capillary column and chromatographic conditions as for the GC/FID analysis. Mass spectra were acquired over the 40–500 amu range at 1 scan/sec with ionizing electron energy 70 eV, ion source 230 °C. The transfer line was set at 270 °C, while the carrier gas was He at 1.0 mL/min.

Grape Volatile Profiling via GC-MS

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Free volatile aroma precursors have been analyzed at Scuola Superiore Sant’Anna (Pisa, Italy) employing gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC-MS) equipment. The solid-phase micro extraction (SPME) technique has been used to analyze the head space of grape samples, applying an untargeted analytical approach to achieve grape berry volatile profiling. Grapes were homogenized with 1 M NaCl buffer solution (1:1 ratio in weight) by using an UltraTurrax (Mod. T25, IKA) and thawed at 15 °C for 15 min. 10 g of sample were transferred to a 20 mL glass crimp vial for headspace analysis and sealed. The vials were incubated under agitation for 45 min at 40 °C, and volatiles were sampled using an SPME fiber (50/30 µm, DVB/CAR/PDMS, 1 cm long; Supelco, Bellefonte, PA, USA). Sample analysis, as well as compound identification and quantification, have been performed according to Modesti et al. (2023) [111 (link)]. A Clarus 680 gas chromatograph equipped with a split/splitless injector (PerkinElmer®, Waltham, MA, USA) was used for the analysis. Volatiles were separated on a fused silica capillary column (DBWax, 60 m, 0.32 mm ID, 0.25 µm film thickness; Restek, Bellefonte, PA, USA), using helium as carrier gas with a flow rate of 1 mL/min. Compounds were identified using a mass spectrometer (Clarus 500 mass spectrometer, PerkinElmer®, Waltham, MA, USA) coupled to the GC.

The recommended standard methods of Sofowora20
and Trease and Evans21
for quality screening of phenolics, alkaloids, flavonoids, steroids,
saponins, and cardiac glycosides were adopted.
The GC-MS was used to characterize the bioactive constituents in this study.
Briefly, the ethanol extract of the C. sinensis leaves, which
showed high antibacterial activity, was analyzed using a Clarus 500 Mass
Spectrometer (PerkinElmer, Waltham, MA, USA). It consists of a mass spectral
library (Mass Hunter-Library-NIST14.LIB GC-MS) that was used for the
identification of components in the GC/MS analysis. Its detectable mass ranges
from 35 to 500 m/z, while its ion source and interface temperature were 200°C
and 250°C, respectively. The start and end times (2.50 min and 47.14 min,
respectively), column oven temperatures (40°C), and injection temperatures
(25°C) were used. Injection mode was split and flow control mode was set at a
pressure of 100 kPa. Total flow was 13.9 ml/min while column flow was
1.78 ml/min with a linear velocity of 48.1 cm/s. Purge flow was kept at
3.0 ml/min and a split ratio of 5.1. The oven temperature was programmed first
at 40°C for 5 min with an increase of 5°C min−1 (link) to 80°C, then
5°C min−1 (link) to 300°C for 5 min.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
