Article Synopsis
- Synthesis and characterization of a chitosan-ricobendazole complex demonstrated optimal ratios and successful molecular formation, confirmed by advanced techniques.
- Scanning electron microscopy showed the complex's spherical particles, with sizes between 100 to 200 μm, indicating successful physical properties.
- Therapeutic trials on sheep showed the chitosan-ricobendazole complex had a high efficiency of 89%, comparable to 92% for a commercial drug, and effectively reduced helminth egg counts, highlighting its potential in treatment.
This study discovered and examined novel triple chelate complexes involving iron, ascorbic acid, and essential amino acids (AsA-Fe-AmA triple chelate complexes) for the first time. The mechanism of complex formation was studied using FTIR spectroscopy and quantum chemical modeling. The produced complexes were shown to be suitable for fortifying food items with a pH of 3-7 that have not been exposed to heat treatment at temperatures over 75 °C for more than 15 min.
