Application


  • Analyte protectant approach to protect amide-based synthetic cannabinoids from degradation and esterification during GC-MS analysis.: This study demonstrates the use of methanol as an effective solvent in gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) for analyzing volatile organic compounds, ensuring accurate and reliable results in chemical analysis (Alasiri AM et al., 2024).

  • Low-Temperature Methane Activation Reaction Pathways over Mechanochemically-Generated Ce(4+)/Cu(+) Interfacial Sites.: This article explores the role of methanol in facilitating low-temperature methane activation, presenting new insights into catalytic processes that could revolutionize industrial applications (Trovarelli A et al., 2024).

  • A novel magnetite C18/paracetamol/alginate adsorbent bead for simultaneous extraction of synthetic antioxidants and bisphenol A in water samples.: Discusses the synthesis of innovative adsorbent materials where methanol plays a crucial role in the extraction and purification processes, enhancing the detection of contaminants in environmental samples (Rujiralai T et al., 2024).
