A review about the application of response surface methodology (RSM) in the optimization
of analytical methods is presented. The theoretical principles of RSM and steps for its …

The present paper describes fundamentals, advantages and limitations of the Box-Behnken
design (BBD) for the optimization of analytical methods. It establishes also a comparison …

Membrane separation processes have become a basic unit operation for process design
and product development. These processes are used in a variety of separation and …

This manuscript covers the application of the main techniques for simultaneous optimization
of multiple responses generated by the application of multivariate designs (two-factor …

A procedure for simultaneous separation/preconcentration of copper, zinc, cadmium, and
nickel in water samples, based on cloud point extraction (CPE) as a prior step to their …

This review covers the application of multivariate designs and mathematical-statistical
techniques to establish optimal conditions of the analytical methods for elemental analysis …

Recently, cloud point extraction (CPE) has been an attractive subject as an alternative to
liquid–liquid extraction. The technique is based on the property of most non-ionic surfactants …

An assisted liquid–liquid extraction of copper, iron, nickel and zinc from vegetable oil
samples with subsequent determination by high-resolution continuum source flame atomic …

A separation/preconcentration procedure using solid phase extraction has been proposed
for the flame atomic absorption spectrometric determination of copper and nickel at trace …

Projecting future hydrology for the mountainous, highly glaciated upper Indus basin (UIB) is
a challenging task because of uncertainties in future climate projections and issues with the …
