Removal of Lead from Contaminated Soils with Chelating Agents
The biodegradable chelating agents [S,S]-ethylenediaminedisuccinic acid (EDDS), citric acid and the low biodegradable chelating agent ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) were investigated for their applicability for the removal of lead from soil by soil washing and electrokinetic processing. In the soil washing tests at 298K, the removal efficiency of lead with EDDS and EDTA was high in the ...
متن کاملThe use of chelating agents in occupational lead poisoning.
Chelating agents have long been used in the pharmacological treatment of lead poisoning, whose management is still a problem, particularly in developing countries. This article reviews the pharmacological properties of dimercaprole, peniclliamine. CaNa2EDTA and dimercaprosuccinic acid, examines their indications, contraindications and side effects and discusses the possible use of each drug in ...
متن کاملNew Chelating Derivatives of Chitosan
Dithiocarbamate chitosan, an insoluble derivative obtained from carbon disulfide, and N-(o—carboxybenzyl) chitosan and N—car— boxymethyl chitosan, two water—soluble olyamoholytes obtained from phthalaldehydic acid and glyoxylic acid, can be used for removal of metal ions from dilute solutions. Their characteristic properties are described in terms of infrared, ultraviolet and circular dichroism...
متن کاملMorphometric Changes of Rat Testis After Subchronic Oal Lead Intoxication and D-Penicillamine Treatment
Purpose: The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy of D-Penicillamine in reducing lead induced morphometric changes in rat testis. Materials and Methods: Male adult rats were exposed to 0.4% lead acetate in drinking water for 8 weeks. After this period, 6 rats sacrificed and testes were removed to evaluate the effects of lead intoxication. The remained lead exposed rats were divided int...
متن کاملA Mini-Review on Iron Chelating Agents as a Promising Therapeutic Target in Treatment of Leishmaniasis
There is a high prevalence of infections caused by Leishmania parasites and increasing rate of drug resistance. Lack of successful treatment with existing drugs calls for new therapeutic approaches. The main strategy in treatment of leishmaniasis is creating apoptosis and eliminating different forms of the parasite. So far, numerous drugs with specific mechanisms including 14-α-demethylase enzy...
