Current Primary Outcome: Quantity of phenol recovered in each lavage with each solution [ Time Frame: up to 2 weeks ]

The amounts of phenol in the samples were quantified by a Jasco modular high performance liquid chromatograph HPLC (Jasco International Co Ltd, Japan) equipped with a LG-2080-04 quaternary low-gradient unit, a PU-2080 pump, a DG-2080-54 degasser, an AS-2050-plus autosampler and a UV-2070 plus UV/Vis detector was used. A C18 column Luna (particle size 3 µm, 150 x 4.6 mm) (Phenomenex, Torrance, CA, USA) was selected for the chromatographic separation of the components, adjusting the column temperature to 30 °C (LC Ni-II/ADC oven).
