Separation and identification of metal nanoparticles in surface water samples such as river water is very important. Nanoparticles specially metal nanoparticles have small dimensions can easily pass through from the body's outer immune system and disrupt biological function. Most of the nanoparticles have active surface so environmental contaminants can be absorbed on their surface and then can penerated in the body, and they may cause disease. Therefore determination of nanoparticles type and concentrations and their separation from the surrounding environment, especially surface waters is important. Separation and preconcentration of metal nanoparticles was done by using cloud point... 

Porosity and high surface area is a profound concept for creating advance materials. Nanofibers are an important class of nanomaterials with high surface to volume ratio as a result of long lengths and nano-to-micro-scale diameters. Electrospinning is a simple method for producing nanofibers from different polymers and composites and prepare highly efficient sorbents. Polymeric nanocomposites are claimed to exhibit markedly improved mechanical, magnetic, thermal and electrical properties. Magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles have gained great attentions due to their low toxicity, stability and biocompatibility and have been extensively used to induce magnetic property to the desired sorbents.... 

This thesis contains four chapters. In first chapter the role of water in organic reactions as a ecofriendly solvent, computational chemistry and dynamic nuclear magnetic resonance were studied. In the second chapter synthesis of new 4-hydroxy pyrrole derivatives in water were reported. For the synthesis of these compounds arylglyoxal derivatives, 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds and ammonium acetate were used. The reaction conditions are very mild. The third chapter contains the synthesis of new (4 or 5)-Aryl-2-aryloeil-(1H)-imidazole compounds in aqueous media. We also investigated the tauto-isomerisation of isomeric imidazoles during this reaction using DNMR technique. In forth chapter a... 

In this study, ananomagnetic polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimer was synthesized as a novel SPME fiber coating and implemented to the determination of traces of chlorophenols in water samples. The synthesized magnetic PAMAM shows to have many polar groups with an enhanced internal porosity which is promising to be used as an efficient extracting medium. With this purpose, a thin stainless steel wire was coated by the network of dendritic PAMAM polymer through electrolysis and chemical reactions. The synthesized fiber is physical stable since it was chemically bonded to the substrate. Extraction efficiency of new coating was investigated by headspace SPME of chlorophenols from aqueous samples... 

Developing a simple, cost effective and accurate detection method for L-lysine (Lys), L-leucine (Leu) and glycine (Gly) as the important analytes in clinical diagnostics, biological processes and food industries is of great interest. Therefore, in the first part of this research, cellulose nanofibrils (CNFs) were coated on a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) surface by spin coating to achieve a QCM biodetector for Gly. Thus, the two-layer CNFs coating was selected as sensing film and was applied for following experiments. In the next step, the coated QCMs were carefully characterized before and after interaction with Gly using water contact angle (WCA), Fourier transform infrared...
