Fall 2014
Roxarsone® (ROX, 3-nitro-4-hydroxyphenylarsonic acid) has been used in the poultry industry to prevent coccidiosis, enhance feed efficiency, and to promote growth of the broiler chickens. However, the metabolism, distribution, and elimination of ROX from poultry are not well understood. The focus...

Development and Characterization of New Stationary Phases for Hydrophilic Interaction Liquid Chromatography
DownloadSpring 2014
Ibrahim, Mohammed Elsayed Abdelatif
Hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) has gained high popularity among separation scientists in the last two decades due to its ability to retain polar analytes. Many new HILIC stationary phases with different selectivities have appeared in the recent literature. Such developments...
