background: factor vii concentrates are used in patients with congenital or acquired factor vii deficiency or treatment of hemophilia patients with inhibitors. in this research, immunoaffinity chromatography was used to purify factor vii from prothrombin complex (prothrombin-proconvertin-stuart factor-antihemophilic factor b or ppsb) which contains coagulation factors ii, vii, ix and x. the aim...

objective(s): comparative in vivo studies were carried out to determine the adsorption characteristics of amitriptyline (amt) on activated charcoal (ac) and sodium polystyrene sulfonate (sps). ac has been long used as gastric decontamination agent for tricyclic antidepressants and sps has showed to be highly effective on in-vitro drugs adsorption. materials and methods: sprague-dawley male rats...

carbon nanostructures are famous structures which are used in several industries such as separation, treatment, energy storage (i.e. methane and hydrogen storage), etc. a successful modeling of activated carbon preparation is very important in saving time and money. there are some attempts to achieve the appropriate theoretical modeling of activated carbon preparation but most of them were almo...

One of the famous dyes is methylene blue (MB) which is a symbol of hazardous dyes. In this research, methylene blue was adsorbed using the blends of saffron petals with activated carbon. Five independent variables involving pH (2-13), contact time (5-270 min), saffron petals powder dosage (0.1-10 g/l), initial concentration of methylene blue solution (20-300 ppm) and activated carbon dosage (0....

With the growth and development of chemical plants, the amount of mercury released in wastewater has increased. Mercury in wastewater contains harmful compounds which are hazardous to the human health and living organisms. Therefore, its removal from wastewater is significant. There are various techniques or methods available for removing mercury from aqueous solutions. This study focused upon ...

the adsorption properties and mechanics of selected endocrine disrupting compounds; 17 β-estradiol, 17 α – ethinylestradiol and bisphenol a on locally available black tea leaves waste and granular activated carbon were investigated. the results obtained indicated that the kinetics of adsorption were ph, adsorbent dose, contact time and temperature dependent with equilibrium being reached at 20 ...

the emerging contaminants are commonly derived from municipal, agricultural, and industrialwastewater sources and pathways. these compounds are polar and poorly biodegradable. the dynamicremoval of atenolol from aqueous solutions by activated carbon in fixed bed column systems was investigated. as far as we know, this is the first study reporting the decontamination by adsorption in fixed bed o...
