Fractional Volume of an extraction solvent

Fractional Volume of an extraction solvent is a fraction of the optimum volume of the extraction solvent obtained by dividing the optimum volume of the extraction solvent needed to extract all of the desired solute from a given mass of the solid material into equal smaller volumes for use in separate extraction cycles

If 100ml of an extraction solvent is the optimum volume that would extract all the herbal solute from a medicinal herb, then 100ml/2 gives a fractional volume of an extraction solvent of 50ml, 100ml/3 gives a fraxtional volume of an extraction solvent of 33.333ml

100ml/4 gives a fraxtional volume of an extraction solvent of 25ml,
1/5 x 100 ml gives a fraxtional volume of an extraction solvent of 20ml.

Using fractional volumes of an extraction solvent for extraction purposes gives better extraction yields than using the optimum volume of an extraction solvent as a whole.

Franxious

Franxious - when you're so unbearably excited about the fact that it's Friday that you can't work, and simultaneously worry that you're going to get abominably shit-faced much too quickly and peak too soon. This may, with diminishing regularity, also occur on a Thursday (Thranxious), Wednesday (Wanxious), and so on.

"Ermahgerd erm serr Franxious."

"Manxious? You need to sort yourself out."
