[Enterosorption in chronic enterocolitis].

Abstract

Polyfepan, a sorbent, included in the complex of therapeutic measures for the patients with exacerbations of chronic enterocolitis, has considerably reduced the terms necessary to arrest the major symptoms of the condition vs. the reference group. The effect was the most manifest when the sorbent was combined with polyenzyme drugs. Laboratory tests and rat experiments have helped validate polyfepan action as the agent binding microorganisms and their toxins on its surface and fixing the enzyme vector at the site of the pathologic process.

Three-dimensional porous nano-hydroxyapatite@gelatin composite as efficient adsorbent for uranyl ion removal from low-level radioactive wastewater.

The contamination of water resources by uranyl (UO22+) ions poses significant environmental and health risks, requiring the development of efficient and sustainable remediation strategies. Adsorption-based techniques have emerged as promising approaches in the field of UO22+ removal, but the design of cost-effective, high-capacity, and environmentally friendly adsorbents remains challenging. In this study, a three-dimensional porous nano-hydroxyapatite@gelatin (nHAP@Ge) composite was synthesized through glutaraldehyde cross-linking, combining the structural stability of Ge with the high uranium affinity of nHAP. The optimized nHAP@Ge, with a nHAP:Ge mass ratio of 1:0.5, exhibited exceptional UO22+ removal efficiency (97 %), along with high adsorption capacity (364.03 mg/g). Systematic characterizations using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) methods revealed that the porous structure and surface functional groups (-OH, Ca2+, and PO43-) of the material synergistically contributed to binding UO22+ species. Furthermore, the incorporation of nHAP into the Ge framework resulted in enhanced thermal stability while significantly improving the UO22+ adsorption performance. This work presents a scalable, eco-friendly, and recyclable strategy for the effective treatment of uranium-contaminated water, with potential applications in nuclear wastewater treatment and environmental remediation.

Crystal growth of aragonite and calcite in presence of citric acid, DTPA, EDTA and pyromellitic acid.

The influence of four calcium complexing substances, i.e., citric acid (CIT), diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA), ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and pyromellitic acid (PMA), on the crystal growth rate of the calcium carbonate polymorphs aragonite and calcite has been studied. Using a seeded constant supersaturation method supersaturation was maintained at 4 by keeping a constant pH of 8.5 through addition of sodium carbonate and calcium chloride solutions. The unique composition of each solution was calculated using chemical speciation. The growth rate was interpreted in terms of an overall growth rate. For both calcite and aragonite, the crystal growth rate is significantly reduced in the presence of the calcium complexing substances. The growth retarding effect depends on both the concentration and the polymorph. The relative crystal growth rate was correlated to the total complexing agent concentration using a Langmuir adsorption approach. Aragonite appeared fully covered for lower total concentrations than calcite. Furthermore, CIT very efficiently blocked aragonite growth contrary to what was observed for calcite. This is thought to be related to certain distinct features of the dominant aragonite crystal faces compared to the dominant calcite faces.

Interaction of amphetamine and its N-alkyl-substituted derivatives with micro- and mesoporous adsorbents in polar liquids.

The process of concentrating amphetamine (1-phenyl-2-propanamine, C6H5CH2CH(NH2)CH3) and its N-alkyl substituted derivatives C6H5CH2CH(NHR)CH3 and C6H5CH2CH(N(CH3)R)CH3 (R=(CH2)(n)CH3 at n=0, 1, 2, and 3) from diluted aqueous solution was investigated using six adsorbents having different textures and chemical compositions. Three chemically modified carbon adsorbents prepared from plum stones and routinely used SPE cartridges packed with graphitized adsorbents such as Hypercarb and Envicarb and polymeric LiChrolut EN were applied. Recovery rates of amphetamines increase nearly linearly with growing free energy of solvation due to better adsorption of amphetamines with larger side groups from polar solution. Reduction of a carbon surface leads to a decrease in the recovery rate. Its minimal values are observed for the adsorption of amphetamines on graphitized carbons due to both lower adsorption and worse desorption (elution) in comparison with those for activated carbons.
