Experiments were conducted to determine the ability of a hydrated sodium calcium aluminosilicate (T-Bind) sorbent to reduce the toxicity of aflatoxins (AF) or T-2 toxin in male broiler chickens from day of hatch to 21 d of age. In Experiment 1, the sorbent was added at 0.250 or 0.375% to diets containing AF at 5 or T-2 toxin at 8 mg/kg of diet. When compared with controls, AF reduced BW gain b...

Allyl propionate-maleic anhydride-styren terpolymer has been modified with glycerin in order to prepare a new cross-linked functional polymer sorbent. The synthesized cross-linked polymer sorbent has a network structure and contains carboxylic acid, carbonyl, hydroxy, and ester groups, all of which are capable of interacting with metal ions. The sorption behavior of UO 2 ions under optimum sorp...

A report on a project conducted jointly under a cooperative agreement between: Cover photo: Coolside and LIMB are sorbent injection technologies. In Coolside, the sorbent is injected into the flue gas duct, while in LIMB, sorbent is injected into the upper portion of the boiler. Both clean coal technologies rely on humidification— mist sprayed into the flue gas (as shown in the photo)— which he...

In this study, a series of molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) were synthesised using (1R,2S)-(–)-ephedrine or (1S,2S)-(+)-pseudoephedrine as template, methacrylic acid functional monomer and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate cross-linking agent. A highly selective sensitive method the best performing MIP sorbent in solid-phase extraction (SPE) followed by liquid chromatography-high resolution m...

Selective cytopheretic inhibitory device (SCD) therapy is an immunomodulatory treatment provided by a synthetic biomimetic membrane in an extracorporeal circuit, which has shown promise in preclinical large animal models of severe sepsis as well as in clinical trials treating patients with acute kidney injury and multiple organ failure. During SCD therapy, citrate is administered to lower ioniz...

A systematic investigation of sorbent-trap sampling, which is a method that uses paired sorbent traps to measure total vapor phase mercury (Hg), was carried out at two coal-fired power plants. The objective of the study was to evaluate the effects (if any) on data quality when the following aspects of the sorbent trap method are varied: (a) sorbent trap configuration; (b) sampling time; and (c)...

Abstract Sample pretreatment is one of the most crucial and error-prone steps an analytical procedure; it consents to improve selectivity sensitivity by sample clean-up pre-concentration. Nowadays, arousing interest in greener sustainable chemistry has increased development microextraction techniques as alternative preparation procedures. In this review, we aimed show two different categorizati...

a straightforward approach for the extraction of the quercetin was carried out by a nanoporous molecularly imprinted acrylic acid-based network copolymer as asolid sorbent. this technique involves a molecular template (quercetin) which is surrounded by functional monomers and are subsequently co-polymerized in the presence of an excess of the cross linkers. in this process, three-dimensional bi...
