Octadecylsilane is an organosilicon compound that consists of a long-chain hydrocarbon (18 carbons) bonded to a silicon atom through a carbon-silicon bond. It is widely used in various applications due to its high surface activity, making it an excellent adsorbent for non-polar organic compounds. It is also used as a surface modifier or coating agent.
Application
Octadecylsilane can be used as a modifying agent for montmorillonite clay nanoparticles, which are used as a filler material in the synthesis of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)/silylated montmorillonite composites.
An approach to sequence-dependent retention time prediction of peptides based on the concept of liquid chromatography at critical conditions (LCCC) is presented. Within the LCCC approach applied to biopolymers (BioLCCC), the specific retention time corresponds to a particular sequence. In
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs)-a large group of organic compounds-are extremely hazardous to human health. In this study, the 198 samples from six groups of daily food products in the Hanoi metropolitan area were collected and prepared by the QuEChERS sample
Gut lumen serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine: 5-HT) contributes to several gastrointestinal functions such as peristaltic reflexes. 5-HT is released from enterochromaffin (EC) cells in response to a number of stimuli, including signals from the gut microbiota. However, the specific mechanism by which
A novel fritless capillary column for capillary electrochromatography (CEC) has been developed. The ODS microspheres were packed into a capillary and were then immobilized within an organic polymer prepared in situ through a photopolymerization process. The entrapment conditions were investigated
An integrated microsampling approach based on solid-phase microextraction (SPME) was developed to provide a complete solution to highly efficient and accurate pharmacokinetic studies. The microsampling system included SPME probes that are made of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and C18-bonded silica, a
